if i addressed most of yours, im afraid that i would end up lecturing too lol. So i guess maybe not, as i am mostly trying to address the difference in definitions that we seem to be having
ok, well, there is no explicit question there,
and as to the implied one, i have already addressed it twice and we got nowhere, right? You use “faith” as a noun, to describe what the Bible would call a cult or a tree, and i have a different definition of “faith.” Im using “cult” in the orig sense, as near as i understand it anyway, same root as “culture,” meaning we all start in a “cult”
but since i am the odd man out there, obviously, and apparently most believers use faith as a noun i guess, my reply to your q would be that no, i know of no other cult of sol “faith” that is any worse than yours, except yours encourages shunning, thus inviting judgement of others for imagined “sins” or im pretty sure for even refusing to go along with certain things, and i just seriously doubt that little children would do this, rg. JW is as good a tree to be from as any i guess, but how do you get out from under the tree when its time? Lots of drama and sorrow, right?
So dont misunderstand me ok, you have chosen i guess, and i am not here to influence your choice—you might even be the one to improve the cult from within, for all i know—but i must reserve my prayers for anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves in the position of impending salvation at the hands of a JW, as they are apparently in for a painful lesson, at least as near as i can tell.
Yah is my Sovereign, not some board of directors. If i transgress, and cannot or do not confess, then i expect i would be tossed into Gehenna by the one i transgressed against—forgiveness being so far from us, i mean—but understand that this is vastly simplified, and many scenarios might evolve there, they might overlook the matter and that might convict me, etc
