  They haven't been fading in recent years; quite the opposite. It would be interesting, though, to see what happens to the JWs if they run.

  i'm noticing that when i open quite a few of the posts here i notice that the end of the sentences on some lines are breaking improperly.

  like for the word paragraph, it's broken up with the "aph" on the next line for an example.

  it's happening a lot i'm seeing it just about in every post i open, is it just my view and my computer?.

  It's happening on IE and Firefox. It's not happening on Chrome and Opera.

  cappytan: "It has to do with posting long URLs."

  No, it's happening to everyone without posting any URL's.

  LAWHFol:

  "Do you feel that the Universe has a Consciousness?"

  The famous astronomer Carl Sagan said that we are star stuff contemplating star stuff and that we are the way for the Cosmos to know itself. No mysticism, just an atheist version of Pantheism.

  Churches in Australia could lose millions in tax breaks under radical national faith register plan

  by sherrie11 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  churches and religious organisations would lose millions of dollars in tax breaks, concessions and hand outs under a radical plan to force priests, rabbis and imams to sign up to a national faith register.

  under the bold proposal clergy would for the first time be forced to undergo government-specified training and security checks and would be monitored by a national body, or risk losing government funding..

  former premier ted baillieu has backed the plan that has been put to federal and state leaders including the prime ministers office, and premier daniel andrews..

  Ray Franz is, too use language from the book 1984, an "unperson". Here is an example of an unperson in Stalin's regime:

  just heard from a reliable source that some at the canadian branch have received their lay-off notices under their doors at bethel.

  don't know what the letter looks like.

  probably something like, " the tribe has spoken, bring us your torches"
