Except for the writings of Josephus, there is scant secular information about Pilate. Interestingly, Pilate is considered a saint in the Coptic and Ethiopian churches because of his alleged conversion to Christianity. Read Pontius Pilate -- The Biography of an Invented Man by Ann Wroe.

Pontius Pilate
by lighthouse19something inwe i read about jesus' trail, it appears he had more compassion than the jews.
jesus practicly told he powerless in the matter, that's when pilate washed his hands and disavowed responabilty for jesus' death.
a clergyman said he had read that pilate later became a christian.

Somehow.... I am winning out in the end...
by Billzfan23 inok... something strange is going on here - what is it?
i just stepped down as an elder back in early november - and basically have a wife who has her hooks so far in the organization that i thought she would never bend... you know the drill - many family members in the truth - raised in the truth, etc..... well... last night we had a heart to heart about the doubts that i have been having, why i stepped down, and what i think will be a fair an equitable solution to the handling of our two kids.
it was like my coming our party - she completely bent on everything... she was completely understanding about my stance on everything, and although she does not agree - she does agree to not fight me on everything.

INSIGHT ON THE SCRIPTURES
by lighthouse19something ini realize the publication is biased toward the jw doctrines, but is it accurate on the noncontroversial topics.
i spent good $ on it when it came out, and i wondered if anyone had opinions.

The Watchtower Society has no scholars. They have liars and thieves.
Amen to that.

Excellent example of good money after bad. On the plus side, the spelling and grammar are superb. Nice pics, too.
