So Jehoover is a sweetheart and a prick. Guess you have to be careful what mood he's in.
Bi-polar?
as a father, made in god's love, that has troubled me for a very long time, is that god, as described by the wts, is soon, going to slaughter every, roughly, 7.9 billion people on the planet, because they have figured out a way to come know him as a father according to the wts.. .

a particularly curious quote was:.
the most mainstream research on this is a 2010 study out of pennsylvania state university, which examined data from 1972 to 2006. the study showed that 20 percent of people who have left religion report being in excellent health, versus 40 percent of people currently part of strict religious groups (such as jehovahs witnesses and latter-day saints) and 25 percent of people who switched from a strict religion to a more lenient religion.
I wouldn't be surprised if this quote makes it into a Watchtower or Awake! article sometime in the future...

are most people aware of this website?
they have a video that is pretty interesting.
it was too long though and i didn't have time to listen to the whole thing.
It's pretty impressive that they had a DA and a Judge providing their own point-of-view.
(Yes, I realize that the WTS also had a Judge's (hic) point-of-view.)

Actually, the rhetorical tone is a little over-the-top for professional legal counsel.
A bit, but not excessive.
i saw on another forum that the trademark application for the 'jw.org' logo had been denied by the trademark office.
it is too similar to the logo of another company.
there is an appeals process that presumably gives the watchtower a chance to get the decision reversed.
Traditionally, the TM is used to indicate that the owner considers this a trade-mark (unregistered).
Once registered, the ® is used when it is a registered trade-mark.
jesus said that the true religion would be evident in the lives of the people who practice it.
by their fruits you will recognize them, he said.
every good tree produces fine fruit.
im confused, a poster for the whole mamoth elephants and ark deal going on, with a gizillion pages, .
quoted genesis ch 7 about him bringing 7 clean animals.
and only two unclean, well i thought it wasnt till moses came along that all these requirements were done, so noah was under the law too?.
Why did God make (and then preserve) unclean animals?
