As I said, deep hurt is when you find your wife was cheating on you. For goodness sake people....they voted to allow delivery of the gospel on TV...one more medium than we have already been using through the Internet and radio. It's NOT somethign to be hurt over. I think, as far as healing is concerned, the UPC does not need a healer...Certain people need a healer to find out why they get hurt so badly by such things.

What is it about these laws, this organization, the attitude that can allow one to become so deeply hurt because they voted to allow winning souls through the TV?

I supposed I will not get it, though I think I do (see my post on Islam), but for that I am glad that I don't.

The JWs have the same mindset. Anytime someone leaves their fold they get insulted. They shun that person. They feel as though they were betrayed. They take their organization way way too personally
Dear Praxeas,

The word for the day starts with a "C".

The word is control.

Now let's sound it out together.

Control.

Now let's divide the word into syllables and pronounce it properly.

Con.

Can you say "con?"

Good.

"Con" means against, or opposed.

Now let's say the second syllable.

trol.

Can you say "trol?"

Good.

"trol" means a gruff person who is anti-social. Some even go so far as to hide out under bridges.

Now let's say them together.

Control.

One more time.

Control.

Can you put the definitions together and decipher the meaning of the word?

Praxeas, you are such a quick learner!

You have earned a gold star today!

Together, we have learned a valuable lesson about a very important word, "control."

This concludes our lesson.

But also please understand....

Those men leaving are not having fits or tantrums....

They have for years simply promised that when the UPCI embraces TV they will withdraw....

They are simply keeping promises.....

Some here can label them and castigate them but you make yourself look so small with such immature babble....

They promised...

They but keep their promises....

And to keep the deep wound from the UPCI...

She needs a healer...

we may be more seperated, but we are not more devided.

in fact, we are less devided because we have seperated. what is UPCI is more united. what has seperated is more united.

two wholes that are united is far better than one whole that cant get along with itself.

Resolution 3 is a major move away from unity.
