Judicial Defense ?
by thinker init occurs to me that this forum has a vast resource of knowledge and experience.
i'd like to suggest we put our heads together and find possible defenses for active witnesses facing a judicial committee.
with frenchy's intimate knowledge of committee rules and rr's huge library, along with everyone's individual experience; we we should be able to build a logical defense (assuming logic is a useful tool to jw's).. from my own research, i have put together a logical defense for an active jw who wishes to associate with a da'd friend.

That Door
by RR intwo kingdom hall members were going door to door, and knocked on the door of a woman who was not happy to see them.
she told them in no uncertain terms that she did not want to hear their message and slammed the door in their faces.. .
to her surprise, however, the door did not close and, in fact, bounced back open.

Witnet Refugee
by Prisca inthose of you familar with witnesses.net may have seen me around the site, i've been posting there since early last year, and recently i was a moderator for a short time, before its sudden closure.. i was raised in the truth, daughter of a one-time elder and am a third generation jw.
i have seen a lot of changes in the society, some for the better, many for the worse.. i am now inactive, have not been to a meeting since the memorial earlier this year and not been in active witnessing since january 99.. so i am more out than in, though i have a few family members that are still witnesses, so i try not to put myself in the situation where i could be df'd.
(easy, avoid the elders!

The Catholic Church
by Pathofthorns infor all that we've trashed the catholic church as though they've been some kind of "arch-enemy" of jehovah's witnesses and christianity itself, its quite facinating to see this once strict religion gradually abandoning its teachings and becoming more mainstream.. its quite interesting to see how centuries held beliefs can be abandoned due to changing times.
i think there are many more similarities between the catholic church and witnesses than we realized, despite our insisting how radically different we were.. i'm not saying the attrocities committed by the catholic church are somehow equal or less than mistakes made by jehovah's witnesses.
but i do think that the pope's acknowledging and apologizing for many of these earlier this year is a step in the right direction.. i guess they get new light too as they've changed their teachings on hellfire, and now they've even opened up heaven to non-catholics.
