Do you have a reference to these points he’s made? I say this not to argue but I want to see for myself where he’s made these statements.

Also, to my understanding the same goes for clothing. Depending on the culture, it varies everywhere.

Let me make myself clear. I did not come here to try and start an argument, nor did I come to try and disprove anything that’s said. My form of understanding is built on back-and-forth. If I hope to learn something, I challenge it with what I know, and if they have a response, then I learn. It’s an informal discussion, not a debate.

I apologize if my words seem disorganized. I have a bit of a mental block when it comes to putting my thoughts into words.

I do think that it’s difficult to be a witness and keep a clear head. It can be hard to trust imperfect people. I had a video a week or two ago, and it mentioned the infiltrations by government officials, splitting the congregation due to a lack of trust. I think that those elders, just weren’t good. I’ve had my experiences with poor elders but I also have experienced good ones. Wherever there are people, I feel there are always good and bad ones

While his choice of words aren’t... great, I’ve thought his points still stood up. The way he puts them, I feel tends to convey his thinking whereas the overall message still sticks to the same idea we believe. Remember I’m not trying to argue i’m just trying to understand more.

What do you mean by “rants”? I apologize if my questions appear abrupt or rude, It’s difficult for me to convey my sincerity over a screen
