Me obsessed?? LOL
Are you the Mormon turned Jehovah's Witness, go figure!
You follow me around with your multiple accounts, but you silly cap locks give your ' little secret' away
I think you are the obsessed, and you have nothing important to say, so why do not you just be ivisible, OK
But if you want to participate explaining your organizations false doctrines, the do not be like Michelle Chang and keep following around without any answers.
You really do not have to answer.

Well, they have to get CAUGHT doing it first, don't they? Personally, if it were me, I wouldn't care what the org says because I am too much an independent thinker. No way I would ever let other men tell me what I can and can't do--esp. on such trivial matters as what I read!
Of course, they know the punishment if they get caught--complete ostracism from everything they know and love if the elders perceive them as being unrepentant.

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that a baptized Witness who advocates teaches which contradict his religion is an apostate. If it continues despite counsel from congregation elders, he may be disfellowshipped.
His unrepentance for his serious sin shows that he is "bad association", and true Christians (such as Jehovah's Witnesses) prefer to avoid socializing intimately with bad associates.
(1 Corinthians 15:33-34) Do not be misled. Bad associations spoil useful habits. Wake up to soberness in a righteous way and do not practice sin
It seems rather obvious that cozying up for hours of reading would involve "associating" with the author of the reading material. There is little chance that a Jehovah's Witness will choose to read the religious writings of an apostate former Witness. An active Jehovah's Witness who insists on doing so can damage his relationship with God and in extreme cases can himself be disfellowshipped for apostasy (that is, his close association with apostasy).

their punishment is staying a JW if they don't take the information to heart and carefully consider their sin against our Lord.
