Petraglyph: Thank you go it and saved it. I agree that this man made some honest mistakes, on the whole I think he is valid and I for one always like to follow the money with WT inc. I loved it when I found elders with huge shares in .....get this.....Elders and West Farmers to name a few. They deal in farms, equipment, fertilizers etc. I found this by accident and just couldn't help it. I had to read all of it. There are so many witnesses, particularly elders that are given little tips, advice etc as to where to invest. It's quite the thing. Of course, officially they are not to store up "treasures" here on earth as they are to await heavenly ones or something like that....

GMOs from Forbes.
DJS. Go ahead and tell me how not dangerous GM food are. Please don't spout off at the mouth before you can supply good counter-evidence because I can give you some that should shut your arrogant mouth up. Got shares in them?
Look up GM crops India, there, that's a little homework for you. Go ahead. Now if you can process anything you read. Have a nice little read on the insertion of genomes from pigs that are also put into certain GM produce....
You really need to read some decent literature, then write it out with your little graphite pen on your slate, then do some memorising of facts. I suspect you know jack shit about this topic.

Lockheed the creators of war equipment, training etc and all based in Australia. Never knew that! Very flash looking company, and not some dithery type of business, for their business is about the benefits of war. -

I tried the link but found a site that was not what I expected. I typed it correctly, this was a very long link. Is there any other way to find this information without such a long hyper- text transfer protocol? -

Last Friday I was called by an elders wife. They are devoted to the "truth". And although I am not baptised but raised in this religion, they overlook that fact when it come to trusting me to take care of the dog and cat. They won't ask any other JW. They know I will be loving to the animals. They also think I'm crazy in a nice way.
That was the preamble to the point about "cart witnessing". Sitting there with the dog on my lap and hearing about this elders wife on the topic of cart witnessing she said..." It's really easy. I we did was sit there and catch up on our "gossip" have a coffee and watch people go by. It was a good break from other more stressful things".
I asked her if she had some decent conversations with the locals and she said no, they were busy getting about their day. "Anyway, the message is going to change soon. It will be a different message and afterwards, the preaching will stop. You know, like in Noah's day".
I asked her what exactly she meant. She said that Armageddon was around the corner and like in Noah's day he climbed into the Ark and Jehovah sealed the door.
"But, what about those who will never hear of this preaching work due to bans?" She said that it was possible the news would reach them some other way......People over here are going to where the need is greater.........But Portugal? I don't know what the situation is like over there.

Considering that at the last meeting I attended, which was a link up with Bethel in Sydney. They said no recordings, no photo's and....you may take notes if you wish but you cannot share them with anyone....I have no trouble believing that they would surf sites to monitor the thoughts expressed on sites like these and many others.
I thought it incredibly paranoid when sitting there watching pseudo body guard type men walking up and down the aisle constantly during the talk. I mean Really! It's not like they have state secrets to hide. I don't recognize this religion anymore. They were always fairly insane but much friendlier than they are now.

Anthony Morris explains how God gives Decrees to man! New video edit.
by Wasanelder Once ini took the most recent video on "obey" and edited it down to its core.
here tony explains that the decisions of the faithful slave are arrived at "collectively" but are not a "collection" of man made decisions.
it would be comical if it weren't so sad.. tony video.

Could the Independent Inquiry in England and Wales expose jw.org's child abuse failures? And how can we help?
by defender of truth inwith all the talk about the org's policies and failures regarding child sexual abuse being publically exposed in australia, i thought that it may be a good time to highlight this... i apologise if this has already been discussed, but on the 9th of july the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse in england and wales was opened.
here is some information regarding it's aims.. "about the inquiry.
the inquiry offers an unprecedented opportunity to examine the extent to which institutions and organisations in england and wales have taken seriously their responsibility to protect children.. the inquiry will investigate a wide range of institutions including:.

Disfellowshipping by Jehovah’s Witnesses: A Brief History - Great article
by defender of truth indespite the governing bodys best efforts, members do leave the faith.
the governing body insists there is no valid reason for leaving the religion.
in fact, their brand new brochure, return to jehovah, lists only three reasons why someone might leave the religion: misplaced guilt, being mad at a witness, and being busy with life.. but of course, there are several valid reasons for walking away from the faith, all of which are much more damning than the sanitized reasons the watchtower society lists.

I know a young woman who was disfellowshipped for having a boyfriend outside of the WT parameters. She never looked better, lost weight, was a bit wild but still a lovely person. However, the lack of contact with her family and her lifetime friends was too much in the end. She told me she went back because she missed them. Interesting that she never once mentioned the pseudo-biblical reasons. No. It was loneliness that drove her back. And back onto anti-depressants; which loaded the weight back on, the ups and downs that came with the medication she had re-commenced.
She came to see me last year and was afraid that Armageddon was literally around the next corner, next week, next month! I reminded her that no one would know the day or the hour, that this was not the right approach. I had lived in fear of death whilst trying to grow up. She couldn't understand the disconnect with real life that such a style of religion could create........She's back full on and off to where the need is greater.
