would someone who believes in and respects the bible as having been inspired by god like to attempt an explanation of this account regarding lamech?
why do you think an account such as this is even in the bible to begin with?
was it a physical wound, or a mental wound?.
What is it that makes you think there is a lack of interest? I can't speak for others, but I have been following with avid interest.
Is it because you don't get immediate agreement with your point? That is probably because you are accustomed to marking house-to-house record sheets as not interested when people make it clear they don't want to become Jehovah's Witnesses.
Now, I am most curious to find out from whence you arrived at Naamah being raped by the young man. Please relate, in detail, how you know this.

i finally did it.
my da letter was short and sweet, so i gave them nothing to use for potential ammunition.
for those of you who have read my posts, i came to the point where the slow fade was not an option.
I love success stories! Glad to hear this, Toby.

Or if he had the kind of critique that would have made JWs avoid the site like it was plague-ridden, he'd have been fine too. As in, a simple motion to dismiss the case on it lack of merit would have sufficed. Plenty of precedent already on the books.
Alternately, if hosted in the U.S. his site would have been protected as long as it was under an NPO. U.S. precedent proves the courts bend over backwards in favor of ruling Fair Use on the side of NPOs.

Silly rat, he'll be back Monday!
Dave, it comes down to procedure and prejudice. Courtrooms are creatures of habit, rite, and ritual sacrifice. A judge will typically feel offended by anyone who tries to represent themselves. It is as if the individual is saying, "All those years you spent in Law School and practicing so you could get your fancy robe don't mean a thing to me. I'll defend myself!" It is an affront to the practice of law, although it is a perfectly reasonable and fair idea to almost anyone outside that practice.
There are laws (rarely, if ever, enforced) stipulating the circumstances under which people can defend themselves. But there is no way to prove that a judge was weighing the case with bias because you showed up with the right letters behind your name.

And it is really only possible in the Corporate world, or among individuals with Corporate backing. The only way the little guy stands a chance in court is when he/she is the one suing. The payof has to be substantial nd the legal team will take the lion's share of the proceeds.
In Quotes' case, Goliath is coming after him, he ain't going out to meet him. Except, this Goliath is EIGHTY feet tall and wearing a full helm with bullet proof visor and he's carrying his own sword (hint: it isn't leather-bound). I don't think Quotes will have a choice other than to capitualte early and settle. No doubt removal of the materials, gag agreements, and a small remuneration will make the case go away. I won't feel bad at him for doing what he has to do, he has helped a lot of people and gotten a lot of information out there that formerly was fairly well hidden from prying eyes.

Take care, defd! Have a good weekend, and pray for us. It's only fair, I pray for you.

I expect Quotes will have to find some way to settle out of court. It is a financial burden that is nearly insurmountable. If he had the ability to countersue with a reasonable expectation of success that would be a different story altogether but, as it stands, I would imagine he won't be able to afford it.

so sky news is running the lead story that brown's emails reveal an official completely out of touch while new orleans was devastated!.
it seems everyone should be careful what they write in emails - especially if you're in government!
Well, the fact is he wasn't qualified for the job. However, I don't agree with demonizing him for doing the very best he was capable of (which amounted to damn all). Unlike the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses, Brown didn't appoint himself to a position of which he couldn't fulfill the responsibilities.
The screw-ups were Brown's, but the fault was putting him in that position. We all know who did that.
