The information came from www.ajwrb.org's JW Memorial section. Avenger, why is it you clip out so much of the information such as the fact that the newsletter credited ajwrb?

Watchtower says Dos and Don'ts are out
by ozziepost inamong the latest instructions to the rank and file witnesses is this one:.
"following bible principles, we will avoid trying to live (or demand others to live) by an extensive and rigid set of dos and don'ts that go beyond the teachings of the bible.
" (the watchtower - issue of april 15,2002, page 22, para 15).

Some of your posts of late seem to offer the idea that there will be true reforms if we only wait.... and wait..... and wait... and wait.
That is not and will not happen. When the skin of an old wine bag is ruined you toss it away for patches won't hold.

LyinEyes, which state or province was this in? You can privately email me at [email protected], or if you wish to say nothing further then we understand that too. A memorial website will be going up in memory of those who suicided and were JWs or Watchtower-impacted and to inform and deter others from becoming endangered by WTS doings.

A really ugly warning to all JW's
by Mindchild inif u r a dub dont go 2 anymore assemblies!
it is possible that you will die.
really.. this is not a nice friendly post to any active jehovah's witness but is something they should read anyway.

What they'd want to watch out for might not even be a device but germs. For example what if a terrorist smeared feces on a glove and those are full of staph, possibly diphtheria etc then used that glove to open the doors into and out of convention and assembly websites, the restrooms etc? Let us pray nothing like that ever happens. It would be so easy for them to do that. Someone else said the idea that terrorists might strike a church gathering is reaching but just recently that was done in Pakistan. Two American Christian women were among the five slain and dozens injured after terrorists blew up a church there. Let us pray for kindness to reign on earth some day as abundantly as in heaven.

Need Info With OR Murders
by D8TA ini live in nieghboring state(wa) that has the nw cable news network.. which is the only information i have available on this story in oregon.. problem is, the reporting is vague.
a vague statement being made is that this person who comitted the murders "had kept his children isolated from family members".. my question is: "are the family members also jehovah witnesses"?.
if so, that the family members are jw's, shouldn't someone start telling these media types that it's the jehovah witnesses that practice isolation against ex-members?.
