I've encountered JWs that will debate a topic into the ground to the point that it's just a chore to read ad nausuem posts over and over. Running, not facing reality, attitudes, insensitivities, getting tired of arguing, beligerance, obfuscations, ad hominems etc etc....I can go on and on, are all elements of being human, not being with any one group or another.

maybe he is just sick of this topic. It has been discussed extensively like a dead horse being beaten to a pulp.

Re: Praxeas & Company (Thief Saved?/Baptism Essent

Traumatic events in ones life can change your personality and in so doing it can both change your perception of things, including doctrine and it can cause you to reflect once again and take a second look at your life and your views.

Many people FIND God in these circumstances and many current Christians have left God for the same reason. Others have changed their doctrines a little and others have changed their attitudes in HOW they handle their doctrines and treat others.

I doubt BP actively switched doctrines because in his mind it means his father is saved...which essentially means BP lied to himself in order to feel good. I really doubt that. I do not doubt though that what happened caused him to take a second look and be more introspective and extrospective.

That alone does not prove him wrong. Howeve in the process of arguing doctrine appeals to emotion should be pointed out. Our feelings are not the basis of God's Truth for us.
