I admire your independent spirit Randy. I agree with you that the announcement after someone is dsf'd or DA'd is defamation of character and should not be allowed by law. But like you said, it has to be stopped by the very ones it affects. I would be willing to bet that there are lawsuits against the WTBTS at any given time because of suicides resulting from this slander. Maybe there should be lawsuits for this slander too. Isn't it nice to have a conversation about religion with someone where there is mutual respect and you have no need to convince the other person of anything? I am really enjoying that.
