The JWs are already warned about not engaging in debates that would expose them to the secrets of the wtBS. So the only ones who would be on Y!A, in direct opposition to the "warnings" they have been given would be the most arrogant and "willful" types. And when they feel that they are being attacked, they come off as condescending and cocky.<BR/><BR/>We have to remember that these JWs are not the "average" JWs. My JW mom had a look of shock and horror just to find out that JWs are engaged in online debating (and so was I when I stumbled on Y!A). Remembering this helps me not to get too angry with the entire group of JWs.<BR/><BR/>But even the best JWs still pick the org over their family and tend to have "persecution complexes." But, hey, we were once like them, so we just kinda have to put up with them, lol!<BR/><BR/>(So, yes, they do more harm than good to thier religion with their online presence... with the exception of the very few who are knowingly deceiving others, using WT tactics!)Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14624653019344623133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2613578658099417906.post-41940727977193268082008-11-11T08:24:00.000-08:002008-11-11T08:24:00.000-08:00Yes Shawn.

They might say that the society never made predictions that did not come true or that their religion does not forbid them from voting.But they themselves avoid voting by their own choice. They might point to past doings by other religions but in the case of their organization it is explained as new light.spiritualbrotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01144999548330761804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2613578658099417906.post-58446663623114624172008-11-11T07:05:00.000-08:002008-11-11T07:05:00.000-08:00I also find that these JW apologists make up Watch...I also find that these JW apologists make up Watchtower Society doctrine as they go along in an attempt to diffuse what is actually going on. When people respond with quotes from the Watchtower, then the ugliness really comes out.Shawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00437198506245843845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2613578658099417906.post-59999492139756033692008-11-11T01:45:00.000-08:002008-11-11T01:45:00.000-08:00I guess to some extent they do.

However his comments seem to be driving people crazy. Also there are some WT loyalists like Third Witness who's comments also seem to do not much good for the image of the organization.spiritualbrotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01144999548330761804noreply@blogger.com
