Ah maght be unejuamakaitud
by Marcos ini just read a reply on another thread (doesnt really matter which one) in which a person made reference to 2 elders and said that they were not too bright, perhaps inbreeding.
presumably this was said because the guys acted in a stupid manner in their counseling and were from the american south.
are southerners really stupid and inbred?

Slippin' Into Darkness...

to paraphrase "...maybe you might be saved..".
i can't find much reference to it and desire to read the whole scripture in context.. anyone know which one i'm talking about?.

by Marcos ini approach this thread with some trepidation.
i understand that most of us here have had a bad to terrible experience with an organization that is highly judgmental and vengeful in its approach to its members.

Good/Bad Associates
by Marcos ini have seen a lot about the wt teaching on being careful about one's associates.. i feel that i am discerning enough to know what a good or a bad associate for me would be.
i try to be kind to all and keep my judgements fo myself (yes, i judge as to with whom i will associate or whether or not what someone does is something i wish to participate in or be associated with.).
i teach my son to be selective as to his associates.

How have you rooted out the WT (harmful) doctrines

after all these years, i have finally been faced with some situations that i had to react to and have seen that a lot of the old teachings were still influencing my decisions in life (ie.

What will the WT become? (Sort of a Survey)
by Marcos ini have been out for a long time.
to give you an idea of how long, the concept of not offering subscriptions anymore is news to me!.
as they continue consolidating and down-sizing, what affect do you all think this will have on individual witnesses and on their organization as a whole?
