  One more thing: they wrote the wrong website, literally "j.w.org".

  Entering this in my chrome browser brings me to wordpress.org

  If it took them an hour to take a dump, and they wrote one letter every 10 minutes or so, they probably got it the last hour they needed for the month.

  New news item on JW.org: conscientious objection

  will jehovah's witnesses protect freedom of conscience?

  seon-hyeok kim is facing one of the greatest challenges of his life.

  in early 2015, this 28-year-old husband and father appeared before a judicial committee on charges of apostasy because he is a conscientious objector against shunning.

  I know, taking contributions is totally legitimate. That being said, it's one puzzle piece in an overall trend, from monthly broadcasts to a children's cartoon and tie-in printable activity, to countless letters read at the hall, to the website and app. This past year even The Watchtower and Awake! have started printing a note about contributing in the opening page.

  homophobia (m-w.com):.

  : irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals.

  can someone tell me, specifically, was homophobic about the new "anti-gay" wt video.

  Yes,'homophobia' is overused as a catch-all slur in and of itself often. As for the video: Irrational fear? Not quite. Aversion? Not quite. Discrimination? It could be argued that since the video says gays won't be allowed in paradise, then paradise isn't an equal opportunity landlord 😜

  George Benson & Sheila Hutchinson on JW Broadcasting

  i am thoroughly surprised nobody has brought this up yet, but two of the original songs released last year, "i give you my best" & "jehovah welcomes you home" were performed by george benson, and the first one was a duet with singer sheila hutchinson, the same one who did duets with him over 10 years ago for the cancelled album mentioned in our kingdom ministry.

  compare this:.

  George Benson retraction

  i recently posted a thread identifying a sing duo as george benson and sheila hutchinson.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5701844688961536/george-benson-sheila-hutchinson-on-jw-broadcasting?page=1#/5116263479115776.

  i apologize for the mistake, but the male half of the duo was not benson, but rather phillip ingram, another singer.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/phillip_ingram.

  regardless, these two former celebrities that collaborated on an album a decade or so ago, (along with george benson, among others),.

  Well, think of it this way: there are many rank and file witnesses that do 'questionable' things, even quite differently than the org wants, but it's nothing judicial. Prince likewise was just a regular low hour publisher, and I'm sure he didn't have any responsibilities in the congregation. Its not like the orgs leaders have officially mentioned him or used him at all.
