I asked: 'If it depends on the situation, how can you be sure that Jesus did not approve of your mother being shunned by her family?" I asked this because you seem to think it's OK for you to shun people but not OK for you - or your mother - to be shunned. You said I should join the dots in the bible. So, asking what the bible says about your mother is hardly a "silly question".

The bible does not mention my mother that I'm aware of. Next.
Originally posted by FMF Well then, the question remains unanswered: how can you be sure that Jesus did not approve of your mother being shunned by her family?
"The proof is in the pudding" as they say.
But you know as well as I do no matter what my answers are, it will never be good enough for you as that's not really what your looking for. Your here to argue as usual and I'll answer your questions superficially but not go any farther. It's a waist of time and we all know that.

I was in the top of my classes in High School in drafting and architecture and had a very promising outlook in that field if I wanted to follow that and go to collage and other schooling. ...[text shortened]... ure the earth will truly be one day for them was a little more important.
How's that for ya?
Good thanks, but to be clear; you gave up what would have been a promising career as an architect to serve Jesus?

To be clear then, when people shun you for religious reasons, it is bad. But when you shun people for religious reasons, it is good. This is the essence of what you have been saying, right?

I've looked back at the postings here of mine and I can't seem to find where I said I shun anyone because of their religious beliefs. Could you plase show me where I said that?

I have chosen my words carefully: I have talked of "religious matters" and "religious reasons". It is no secret that JWs shun people for "religious reasons".

Lol. First you are a lier about that and if we shunned people of other religions we would not be spending billions of hours a year going to their doors now would we?
Now again show me where I stated that we shun others because of their religion? If your not a lier then show me. If not that confirms you are a laying person.
