A question for elders and former elders who have served on JCs
by slimboyfat inbased on your experience of judicial committees, how would you advise someone who is due to meet with the elders and has asked for the best way to avoid being disfellowshipped?
is denying everything ever a successful strategy?
does addressing a letter to the elders threatening legal action if they disfellowship ever work?

You atheist really annoyed me
by confusedandalone inwhen i first came to this site.
whenever i would try to talk about somethign from the bible that the jw's got wrong or reason on a scripture that had so much feeling you would stomp all over it.
talking about "flying spaghetti gods" and laugh at what seemed to be my expense and then leave the thread never to return and add any substance.

District Convention talks regarding Apostates and College
by outsmartthesystem inas much as it pained me.......for the benefit of my upcoming custody battle.......i went to the friday afternoon session and recorded the final talk of the day that railed on college.
then i went back and recorded the apostate talk on saturday.
both recordings are audio and visual but the visual is basically just a panoramic of the arena (i was sitting/standing in an area more or less above and behind the speaker.).

Why did Lazarus Pay for his sins twice?
by criticalwitness inaccording to j dub doc the wages sins pays is death meaning to them death covers your debt of sin when lazarus died did he not pay his debt?
so when jesus resctd him why did he die again?
when jesus brought him back did he creat or recreat an imperfect being on the sinful road to destruction?

If the "Governing Body" arrangement is so effective and sanctioned by Jehovah
by confusedandalone inthen why in the world was it only effective for what 10 years tops beforeit dissappears?.
there is never any direct mention of it anywhere - and even if implied how many decisions did it make?
if it was such a cornerstone and vital to the proper flow of god's earthly organization why doesn't it have a clear track record of existence as well as successful decisions.
