Further just because SOME of a species evolve into something else, it does not follow that all will.

Big news: Vatican has admitted that Charles Darwin was on the right track when he claimed that Man descended from apes
by truthseeker inthis is big news from the vatican.
they now accept charles darwin's theory of evolution.. it still doesn't explain why there are monkeys living today - surely they would have evolved by now into humans?
can anyone explain this?.

Excellent job A@G. The arrogance of the WT is absolutely disgusting. Their actions remind me of the following Scripture:
(Matthew
23:1-12)23 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, saying: 2 "The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the seat of Moses. 3 Therefore all the things they tell YOU, do and observe, but do not do according to their deeds, for they say but do not perform. 4 They bind up heavy loads and put them upon the shoulders of men, but they themselves are not willing to budge them with their finger. 5 All the works they do they do to be viewed by men; for they broaden the [scripture-containing] cases that they wear as safeguards, and enlarge the fringes [of their garments]. 6 They like the most prominent place at evening meals and the front seats in the synagogues, 7 and the greetings in the marketplaces and to be called Rabbi by men. 8 But YOU, do not YOU be called Rabbi, for one is YOUR teacher, whereas all YOU are brothers. 9 Moreover, do not call anyone YOUR father on earth, for one is YOUR Father, the heavenly One. 10 Neither be called ‘leaders,’ for YOUR Leader is one, the Christ. 11 But the greatest one among YOU must be YOUR minister. 12 Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.Isaac Carmignani

Very good. I just hope he doesn't develop arrogance on this package. No one can say anything with absolute certainty.

Actually this is fairly big. To disfellowship someone for fornication going on in their home, especially when they are not telling the parties to fornicate is unprecedented as far as I know. WT gets more controlling with each passing year.

" they try to incorportrate this illustration with the importance of god's name.. "how can you really know god without knowing his name?it is important not only to know but.

Funny you mention this. As a dub I never really thought about this. But NOBODY in any culture I have ever run into thinks its respectfull to call parents or grandparents by their first name. Ever. Funny that the JW's main argument for respecting God's name is so totally specious. To put this bluntly Rutherford was an ass, and not just about 1925!

Now that's a hell of a thing:
by SixofNine inman who beat civil rights leader, john lewis, asks forgiveness google_ad_section_end .
google_ad_section_start washington (ap) - elwin wilson was an unabashed racist, the sort who once hung a black doll from a noose outside his home.
john lewis was a young civil rights leader bent on changing laws, if not hearts and minds, even if it cost him his life.. .

Perhaps one day many elders will do the same to all those they have hurt. Ditto for the GB, though that will probably happen along with pigs flying and hell freezing over.

Some thoughts: First off I'm sorry for your loss. Second what is said here is accurate, particularly sacolton's comments. I have also found the following principle helpful. Backup, backup, backup. The more your data changes the more frequent the backups need to be. Also, some email accounts allow you to leave so much archived that if you tell Outlook Express to leave messages on the server, you may find you haven't lost anything. This works well for gmail and Yahoo. A company though will rarely allow this so if this was a work email you may have lost most of your stuff. But it may be worth checking. At my job until about a year ago people kept tons of stuff on the company server. If you need help on backup, I'm sure any of us "geeks" can give some good advice.

Greatest man picture in the movie The Magdalene Sisters
by truthseeker inhas anyone watched "the magdalene sisters"?.
at the beginning of the movie this guy is beating a drum at some party.
the drummer happened to be a priest.. on the drum itself you can quite clearly see the following image, which is almost a copy of the image found in the greatest man book chapter 123.. .

So I told him I am moving out...
by WuzLovesDubs in...and there was no reaction at all.
flat line.
no expression on his face whatsoever.

it will be one of the hardest things you'll ever do, but you will open up your life to endless possibilities.
This about sums it up. I remember my ex's flatline responses to just about everything. I'm so glad I followed through when she again proposed divorce. I have happiness, money, my daughter, possibility of future relationships, women who like me, travel, a full and rich life giving to others yet not robbing myself to give. It doesn't get much better than this. Funny divorces often show up where the problems were in the marriage. My ex still has the same problems that she thought I was causing. I can only hope that she figures things out.
Wuzlovesdubs, good luck to you and yours. PM if you ever feel you need any support on divorce, custody and such. JWs can be a nasty lot once they realize that the other mate may allow blood transfusions and won't be raising the kids as dubs.
