Kensho, those would all be positive changes, sure. But the one thing they cannot do is undo all the damage they have already caused. They cannot fix it and I do not forgive them.

This will be a GREAT organization!
by Kensho inwhen...... 1) we follow christ example not the gb.
2) stop df'ing those for challenging current or past doctrine and allow us to use our god given gift of reason and free wil.
sure kick out the scumbags even the lions club have rules for membership, but not those who just use their brains and consience.. 3) get rid of the nonsensical blood teaching that has cost the lives of thousands and beg god for forgiveness.

It's just a whisper away. We will likely never fulfill any career goals so there's no reason to even go to school.
Seriously: I listen to the news and things do seem to be at a tipping point. But that same sentiment has been felt by so many generations that I take my own observations with a grain of salt. Using all the turmoil going on in the world to promote the idea that we are so close to the end is about as useful as pointing to all the problems with the Watchtower as evidence that it is about to crumble.
Everything will just keep plugging along until God tells everyone to get out of the pool - despite our keen observations

God is obligated to bind in heaven what the GB sees fit to bind on earth. How can the patent office get away with this?

Ramifications for Wt if Finnish government was successful in prohibiting shunning
by joe134cd ini was just thinking today of the ramifications for the wt if the government of finland was successful in its case against shunning practices, and eventually this was implemented all around the world.. the question this would raise is do they obey gods commandments or that of mans.
jehovah has implemented a scriptural policy through the fds of disfellowshipping.
it's a loving provision that helps the wrong doer see the errors of his ways and draws him back to jehovah.

So if Wt back track on shunning then how do they explain it to a family who haven't spoken to a disfellowshipped son/daughter in years.
Accomplishing this trick is only half of the equation. The other half will be in convincing those that have been shunned that their ex-family members are worth talking to.

Is the Watchtower religion really so lacking in an identity of their own that 130 years after its founding it still feels it must elevate itself by stepping on the "competition"?
Isn't that kind of a worldly trait?

I grew up in Idaho where there is actually a higher per capita rate of Mormons than in Utah. As far back as I can remember Mormons have had family day, which includes church, followed by church activities and study. I guess the doomed, Babylonish harlot of Mormonism figured out the salvation aspects of family study decades before the enlightened, spirit-directed boys up in Brooklyn.
