  Candace Conti did more good than anyone could have imagined that she would have.

  It shows that not only can you see justice actually done, you do not need to succumb to the insane pressure to coverup and/or settle for peanuts.

  Re: Selection made in heaven first.

  Same with pedos.

  God knows, but sometimes holy spirit is like Billy coming home in Family Circus.

  Not always the direct route.

  Thus the victim and their family are being allowed the privilege of showing their loyalty to God's organization even under difficult circumstances.

  A Challenge to Apoligists - Why Would a Heavenly Father Kill a Newborn?

  by berrygerry in

  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.. .

  as a father, dear apologist, why would you kill/murder a one-day old baby?.

  So Jehoover is a sweetheart and a prick. Guess you have to be careful what mood he's in.

  News Article from The Atlantic about the Health Effects of Leaving Religion (Mentions JWs)

  http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/09/the-health-effects-of-leaving-religion/379651/.

  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...

  Sure - "See brothers, you're nuts to leave."

  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.)
