I hope none of you kidless people take offense, but I think a lot of you are in lala land. Having kids opens your eyes a bit wider to what is going on in this world. While I respect anyones decis...
i don't think it's the kidless part that there are more DF-ings...it's the singleness part.
My point is, it makes people stronger to have children. Selfishness goes out the door. That is, if Jehovah is put first.
There's plenty of single, selfless pioneers and elders who don't want kids to be able to do more in Jehovah's service. Some want to have kids and choose not to. You're saying people without kids ...
Ok and you are talking about an exceptional few. Sorry, but a lot of people's reasons for not having kids have nothing to do with service to Jehovah.
why do you need a reason at all? it's not like we are required to have children and have to come up with a good reason not to. Please.
you don't have to have a reason at all. I just think people with kids are more in tune with reality.

So you can't act like you have the perspective of NOT having kids and growing spiritually as a single person.
Let's just agree to disagree.
