prove? there is nothing scripturally evideced or even vaguely INDICATED. This is very disappointing-as a JW, I could argue scripture about things that mattered. It might be a unique interpretation or "take" on a subject, but at least an arguement could be made (mostly). This one is just so far removed from having any reasonable explanation that it seems like a waste of energy to finish reading what it is that they say. It is just so much NONSENSE. No point. Just an excuse for their continued existance. -

Babygirl, I'm sorry. It is funny how we used to call ourselves brothers and sisters but in situations like this, how many of us feel that we literally have the same mom? Truly we have become sisters in this. I'm sorry, sweetie. Sometimes people are so blinded by false things that they can't see truth standing in front of them. Truth is your child crying in pain and needing comfort. If that isn't 'family business' then I sure as hell don't know what is. I am on the west coast and will soon be driving to E. Texas. If you are somewhere in between, message me and I will stop by and meet you for some coffee and a hug from a mom that has enough love for you in her heart. -

Such a sad story. The family must be devastated. The other driver should be in jail for a good long time. That was disgraceful, dishonorable and evil in every way. Accidents happen, but drinking and driving and leaving the scene of such an accident is inexcusable. -

US Royal Commission or Something Like it
by mrmagic inwhat would be the equivalent of a us version of the royal commission?
i'm not just asking about one specific governmental entity, but perhaps even a conglomerate of entities or series of events that would need to take place to cause a domino effect....a tipping point.
who do you think needs to be contacted that can turn around and contact a lot of others?looking for thoughts and ideas.

while the outright abuses need to be addressed I think that they are bringing children into judicial committees (whether as victims/sinners/both) needs a particular spotlight put on it. The abuse issue (with confessional privilege and reporting requirements) needs to be across the board for every organization/individual, even. HOWEVER, the WT policy of JCs is harmful to kids. I know it is a religious practice, but when dealing with minors, it becomes an abuse in itself. I think that is a item particular to the WTBTS/JWs that needs to be highlighted for the abuse THAT IT IS! -

Korean news with my story...
by AntiEntropy ini joined this site 12 years ago and i revisited it yesterday to get some information on coc's status.. .
frankly saying, i've tried to be a complete ex-ex-jw so that ex-jw things would not drive my life mad.
due to my linguistic barrier of writing in a foreign language, 12 years ago, i could not but read and read and read this site.

Is the Koran (or, parts of it) older than Muhammad?
by fulltimestudent inislamic tradition rests on a foundation of the (claimed) writings of muhammad, that we know as the koran (or, quran).
so in that view believers see him restoring the original monotheistic faith of all the prophets ( of the west asian tradition).. its important to know that muhammad was born in mecca (in arabia) somewhere around 570 ce.
his parents died when he was young, and he was given into the care of his uncle abu talib.

This is all interesting, but the dating has a pretty generous window, plus it's not an exact science really, though more so than I thought. I don't think it predates Muhammad. . .while I find hadith uninspired and contradictory in some ways, Muhammad is a pretty consistent part of the story. -

You can't put stuff on others property w/o permission. If your family is trying to embarrass them, they seem to be doing a good job. Not knowing the whole story. . .go to an attorney and see what you can legally do to expose wrongdoing without putting yourselves in jeopardy. This sounds like a really old and rusted train wreck. Please stop your family from setting themselves up for liability. Your mom's harm was decades ago, but their claims will be fresh and documented in some cases. You can feel or be morally justified, but the law could bite you in the backside. Back off all of it NOW. Call Atty. None of us are licensed to practice law online or elsewhere, but I know enough to know you are damaging yourselves. None of this will help your mum. She should report to police and/or child welfare the abuse, remind his local elders and leave it. It's too late to sue him or convict him for what he did, but she can support any others who come forward. All the rest of the family drama belongs in city planning/zoning and atty offices.
