They will ask what he was thinking about when he was doing this. They will ask if he was enjoying this activity. They will ask about the size and shape of her nipples.
The elders don't have to ask these questions. The sinners wife will be asking these questions over and over again for a very, very long time to come.

What would happen?

They were looking for cheap ties.... I don't know if that actually breaks the rules.
Cheap ties tend to be loud and obnoxious. Probably would break some dress code rule.
Is that what you meant? Ha,ha.

A thrift store down the street is run by members of a small, local Christian congregation. Evangelical but not sure what religion they are affiliated with. They have set up the store as a non-profit and have a specific use for the funds they acquire. They visit old age homes on Sunday, every Sunday, for music sessions and snacks. Bring the guitars and kids with them and mingle with the elderly.
They also have adopted small Christian congregations in Mexico, Cuba and Romania. The send $1000.00 a month to each of these small groups as well as visit them periodically and arrange for regular small groups of their teens to go to the adopted congregations and fellowship with them as well as have Bible study programs for a week or so. They bring some of these Mexicans, Cubans and Romanians to Canada for short trips to get away from the poverty they are living in and give them a break. They are a happy lot. Volunteer spirit always shines when you are around them.
My question.
What would happen to a Jehovah's Witness congregation if they took it upon themselves to set up a thrift store, adopt three congregations in poorer countries and developed a faith building relationship with their adopted brothers and sisters, TOTALLY separate from any control or instructions from the Watchtower Headquarters?

Evolution is a Fact #1 - Protein Functional Redundancy
by cofty ini intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.
there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.
there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.

The information in the OP of this thread should be enough to convince any rational person.
Wow!
That little bit of information should be enough. And I gather that any rational person must mean 'all rational people.'
WOW !!!

the public is getting very upset at the abuse of children.
how would the society survive if hit with this kind of award for the conduct of pedophile members when evidence shows they were trying to silence the victim by threats to protect the watchtower's reputation.

Neanderthals - Meet Your Ancestors
by Earnest intonight (sunday, 13th may) at 20:00 on bbc 2 ... for neanderthal believers, agnostics and deniers.. this first programme in a two-part series investigates what neanderthals looked like and and how they lived in their ice age world.
it turns out that almost everything we thought we knew about them is wrong.
they weren't hunched, grunting, knuckle-dragging ape-men at all.

Science progresses constantly as new discoveries opens up new possibilities for research.
Apparently the motivation to seek funding by scientists, for their research, has lead to an extremely large percentage of their published works being found to be fraudulent, misleading, biased, incomplete, inaccurate and even undependable. It has been said by some authorities, on the subject of research, that the most benefit that can be derived from these published works is to open the mind to fresh ideas and help expand vision.
Solomon Snyder, senior editor at the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins Medical School in Baltimore, US, says most working scientists understand the limitations of published research.
“When I read the literature, I’m not reading it to find proof like a textbook. I’m reading to get ideas. So even if something is wrong with the paper, if they have the kernel of a novel idea, that’s something to think about,” he says.
Now, I am not arguing the value of scientific research. However, bias can lead a person to favour and accept a finding that supports an already accepted belief.
Now, on the subject of Neanderthals, if they were once thought to be a knuckle dragging, grunting, lower form of life and now, apparently they are thought to be a form of life much closer to modern man, how would it be accepted by the supporters of these beliefs if, in the future, papers started being published that showed, with equally persuasive empirical evidence that the Neanderthals were actually much higher advanced than modern man with higher intelligence and a more perfectly formed body. Would there be quick acceptance or would there be resistance? Is there a line that science cannot cross over, even for Cofty?

Then geneticists were able to recover some samples of DNA and it appeared that they never bred with humans. With improved techniques more of their genome has been decoded showing that we did in fact share some ancestry with them.
The Dahm triplets [ Nichole, Erica and Jaclyn ] born Dec 12, 1977.
DNA test taken when they were adults revealed the following:
Nichole – 18% Irish and British
Erica – 16% Irish and British
Nichole – 11% German and French
Jaclyn – 18% German and French
Erica – 22.3% German and French
Nichole - 11.4% Scandinavian
Jaclyn - 7.4 % Scandinavian
Erica - 7.4% Scandinavian
Interesting.
Even more interesting, no mention of any Neanderthal DNA. Must have made a mistake.
Wait, science making a mistake. Can't be.
