tl;dr: if you live either in scotland or in other parts of uk and you don't mind traveling, you might be able to help a fellow ex-jw by being present during a courtcase where she alone has to face more than two dozens of jws who have ruined their business.
please contact me directly for details on when and where the court case will be held (i will know these details in few days probably).

OMG somebody is wrong on the internet :-)
in response to the 37 threads in my evolution is a fact series - see bottom of op for links - perry posted a link to an article "44 reasons why evolution isn't true".. i offered him a challenge on the thread and by pm.
predictably he is totally ignoring it, so i am offering the challenge to any evolution-denier who thinks they have evidence to support their position.. please present one specific piece of evidence for creationism.. my task will be to refute it with evidence within 24 hours.. then i will present one piece of evidence for evolution and your challenge will be the same.. all posts must be as succinct as reasonably possible.
entirely in your own words, without copy-paste, videos or links.. please post your interest to take part and we will set it up before the first actual post in the exchange.
@vidqun - cofty was pretty clear how he wanted this to work in his OP, including this:

I might have it wrong, but it looks like he wants 1 thread per challenger/topic, probably to keep it tidy and reference-able after the fact.
with the newly released homophobic video by the wts, it gets clearer that those people can't stop shooting themselves in the foot.
they are already under examination and de facto trial by the australian committee; more and more people and officials in western democracies inquire into their abusive tactics and put them under the microscope, and what do they do?
they release a video which confirms those worries.

Pete Zahut15 hours agoI'm not condoning the video here but I think it's safe to say that most people (including JW's) realize that there must be something positive about being gay otherwise so many wouldn't risk life and limb to pursue that life.
When did you decide to pursue a straight life? Time and date would be great thanks.

there is no typical jw personality type.. any of us who were in the religion for a number of years will remember all sorts of individuals.
there is as much variety among jws as there is in the general population.
some were arrogant and judgemental but others were humble and kindly.
gosh elbib - see the thread title for details of what is being discussed here...

How to make posts
The absolute basics ...
Posts must be on-topic
In this forum, we discuss many different topics and it helps if any comments made on a topic are about that topic and not attempts to derail the discussion.
i've seen this weekend's uk branch visit mentioned a few times.
for those who are interested, here is the programme:-.
1:00 pm song 63 & prayer - p. gillies.
I am sad that religion and spirituality are so tritely interchangeable.
good luck for those 3 hours...
i booked a double appointment so that she wouldn't be rushed.
i explained that i'd been brought up in the jw's and woken up to what a load of shite it was.
i explained that they have changed the blood card and that the elders in the cong are being told to effectively force people into signing it.
I think I stopped signing them about 10 years before I left, which in itself is close to 10 years ago now.
I think you can reasonably stall by saying you aren't signing something you don't understand. Make a few appointments to have it explained to you, cancel them beforehand, re-book etc and eventually they will leave it. If push comes to shove delay further by saying you are going to discuss with your doctor, lawyer etc.
