Should pranksters be held responsible for results of their pranks?

two djs, posing as the queen and prince, prank a nurse into divulging info on kate.

nurse is later found dead, apparently suicide.. -----------.

'jacintha saldanha, the receptionist who was duped by two australian djs who were pretending to be queen elizabeth and prince charles in order to get information on the duchess of cambridge's pregnancy, has been found dead.. the woman's body was found at an address close to king edward vii hospital in london, where the duchess was being treated, according to the u.k.'s daily mail.

Seriously, though. Maybe they had her done away with; they don't like 'inconvenient women' in the Royal Family of GB (can you say 'Diana Spencer'?). Unless, of course, the woman's name is "Wallace Simpson" and she is a Nazi sympathizer.

I think that is a bit far fetched, what reason would there be for this? I'm no great fan of the royals but Diana was no saint either. I do think that Willaim and Harry come accross well and genuine and they both work hard and sometimes dangerous jobs so I think they deserve credit for that.

Sorry but this prank is not worth someone choosing to kill themselves over. The persons played a practical joke. The person played took it way too strongly. Nobody should kill themselves over that.

I agree but we don't know what else was going on in this person's life, the thought of being disciplined or loosing her job may have been the breaking point and tipped her over the edge, the extra pressure of taking care of such a high profile patient must weigh on these nurses and the publicy around it must have been devastating.

I think it was a dumb prank, Kate maybe royalty but she deserves the same privacy as any other patient in hospital. I don't think it was malicious but it has ended tragically and I'm sure it will take a while for those DJ's to move on from this also.

Stronger Christian presence on JWN?

by Christ Alone in

i've only been a member here for a short time, but it seems like there are more christians on the board lately.

for the first few months that i was on jwn, it appeared that there were very few that argued in favor of a creator and belief in the bible in particular.

there seems to be several more that have recently joined...or at least posted more regularly regarding belief.

Fakesmile - it gives jesus freaks a chance to try out their recruiting and fairy tale reasoning skills annonymosly.

This is the type of typical response we are trying to avoid - debate the issue, don't make it personal

Looking After Widows and Orphans... and Spending One's "Riches"

by AGuest in

jw
friends

to the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!.

from time to time the issue of how to fulfill the "form of worship that is acceptable to god," mentioned by james in his letter, namely, looking after widows and orphans "in their tribulation"... comes up.

given the issue of tithing, the plethora of institutionalized charity choices, and the existence of ones in need, perhaps in our own households and families... but certainly in our towns, countries... and around the world... how does one fulfill this requirement?

Angharad

It's not the right way to hold a conversation, from any side.

Agreed this is pathetic, respect people.

Band - You don't like what someone says so you call them an ignorant bitch ???? Grow the fuck up!

This is getting tiring - personal insults need to stop - end of story.

Just because someone disagrees doesn't mean they have an empty head or small mind. If you are going to bring your beliefs to a DISCUSSION forum you have to expect people will disagree.

On the other hand if you do disagree and want to discuss it should be done respectfully

There needs to be respect on both sides and this constant tag teaming of insults from both sides is getting very boring.

Mother Teresa attacked by Atheist/Anostic group -

by james_woods in

while i am no fan of mother teresa after reading some of the revealed facts about her life and work - i thought this was just a little out of the realm of polite conversation (but was interesting):.

Chariklo - I am not saying that you cannot discuss the topic or defend Mother Teresa. What I am objecting to is that you are again trying to turn this into a personal arguement about others on this forum. It wasn't a member of this forum that wrote the article ! It was brought here for discussion. But you are again bringing up past arguements, and you are again bringing up something that happened on a completely different forum to this one.

Chariklo - you need to stop using every oportunity to bring up past disagrements, especially ones that started elsewhere, your post on this topic is completely off topic and looking like another attempt to start a fight.

Faith... and Trust: The Same Things?

by AGuest in

in a discussion with some other dear ones, the question was asked as to what such ones put their faith in.

in response to one comment that"one can't function without faith," another disagreed, stating ones can, that "many do so every day... the ones who have trust" (in things like the sun rising in the east versus the west).

that trust extended to "faith" based "on nature and the natural order of things.
