    Just got this in my emails:

    Friday: Getting Acquainted/Audience Introductions (if comfortable with it), Helpline Report, including effects of the 3/15/00 WT; personal stories, Toxic Faith Characteristics, Update on Child Abuse Cases, Help in Coping with Estrangement of Family Still Inside the WT; Beyond Reward and Punishment; Lord's Supper for those who wish it.

    Saturday: Finding Faith over Fantasy; Good News from Brooklyn (I can't wait to hear this one ;-) Our Journey as JW's; Blood Medicine and the Law of God (in Spanish); personal stories, The Challenge of Faith Part V; From Jehovah's Witness to Atheist And Why Molecular Biology was Critical in Becoming a Christian.

    I see a lot of topics that don't require a belief in the Bible to be of interest. Come if you can. I will try to take notes and share what might be interesting to those here at JWD.

    Mouthy was telling me about this and encouraging me to go, but its a bit far to travel to from the UK. I'll be interested in reading some of the reports from it though.

    interesting topic, How molecular biology helped in becoming a Christian... I followed a similiar path. My journey though science courses convinced me of the existence of intelligence behind the physical universe. Beyond that, I could not committ to the definition of god as adumbrated by a fairly literal reading of the bible..for that matter any of the religious tomes I found. Took a totally different understanding of revelation writing for me to accept a religion and how God is to be understood..

    Ain't life grand??

    Thanks for that Blondie.

    We would dearly love to come but it's just not possible.

    I for one am looking forward to your notes.

    Thanks for that and your regular Watchtower summary.

    Love
