Äkta Människor (Real Humans)

by Simon in

we've just started watching this swedish parallel-present series about human-like robots (hubots) seeking independence.. its really well done but subtitled (if you didn't mind the original "girl with the dragon tattoo") and the best description of it i was saw the stepford wives meets blade runner.

kind of creepy and unsettling and touches on some adult themed topics (robots for sex).. anyone else seen it?

i only started watching because i was too lazy to get up and get the remote one night but it was pretty gripping.. .

by berrygerry in

nov 15, 2006 wt.

when requesting reinstatement, he should be able to give evidence that he has repented and is producing works that befit repentance.acts 26:20.. .

how possibly can someone "give evidence" or "produce works"?.

BRITAIN - A High Court Judge has ruled that a Jehovah's Witness boy can receive a Blood Transfusion

by jwleaks in

britain - a high court judge has ruled that the son of two jehovahs witnesses can be given a blood transfusion despite religious objections from his parents.. mr justice moylan was told by doctors that the very young boy had suffered severe burns in an accident and might need a blood transfusion.

the judge concluded that a blood transfusion would be in the youngsters best interests in spite of the deeply held views of his mother and father.. the judge said a health trust with responsibility for treating the boy had asked for a ruling.

he did not name anyone involved and did not give the childs age.. judgment - www.jwleaks.org/blood/case-no-fd14p00803.

I remember when a young sister received court-ordered transfusions.

At the time, I didn't know if it were better that she live or die.

If she lived, then the court would be proved right.

If she died, then she would be dead, but have died a martyr's death.

Pretty f'd up thinking.

Man, oh, man.

Suicide - How many do you know within the JWs

by Lady Lee in

thw wts likes to play games with their statistics.

one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?

if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.

That is one challenging first post.

Hopefully, time and treatment will continue to improve your life.

How I Found Jesus!

by berrygerry in

by looking at cdn court cases.. i knew i would find him if i persisted.. there is clear evidence, in my view, that beginning some time, probably in early 2010, but perhaps earlier, that mr. jones developed a delusional disorder with a primary religious focus.

mr. jones accounting of the development of his belief that he is jesus christ, is consistent with the known development of psychotic disorders.

mr. jones describes a period of time where he felt that he had some greater purpose or was meant for something important although he was unable to really identify what that was.
