by Steve_C inimage of ahmadinejad consoling chavezs mother angers iranian clericsapparently, showing compassion to a grieving mother is a sin in islam.
the image drew the immediate fury of tehran's religious conservatives.
no unrelated women can be touched unless she is drowning at sea or needs medical treatment," hojat al-islam hossein ibrahimi, a cleric at the society of militant clergy, said, according to iran's al-monitor.

Could the JWs sway you back...?
by new22day inop based on mr. freeze's topic - could attending the meetings/studying again sway any of you back to the org.
hearing the propaganda over and over again is pretty powerful i'm sure.
(i'm a non-jw, non-christian (no offense), stubborn as a bull and even i had moments of pause based on some of the doctrine (lasted 30 seconds) but i never had family/friends at stake or a background in this.

All of Bethel Know About The Child Molestation Law Suits: And The Governing Body Is Looking Very Bad In Most Bethlites Eyes I'm Willing To Bet
by frankiespeakin inok we had the silent lambs march years ago right there at head quarter over this issue, don't you think that caused a lot of gossip, and expose on a big abc network called 20/20, and many in europe, canada, all about how bad the governing body's policies are on children.. now we have out of court settlements with victims with a gag order, conti big case, and many more.
so i would think everyone at bethel knows about the governing body's mishandleling of these matters.. i'm sure this, a long with the big new light about the governing body alone make of the faithful slave are causing many a lot of irritation and so are seeing these guys now in a different light..

Yeah the title of this thread is a lil delusional.
I was at bethel from 94-96 and didn't even realize the red wings were in the stanley cup against NJ till after I left!
The way your schedule is and the work load they expect (both hall and factory) the last thing a bethelite is doing is thinking about some molestation case.

A conversation about universal sovereignty
by outsmartthesystem in"well osts, satan, through adam challenged god's right to rule......so god had to let it play out to show that he really should be the one ruling mankind.
both the angels and humans needed to see this.
me - why couldn't god have allowed adam's children to remain perfect?

I'm turning myself in. Lurking elders, are you listening?
by Eve Deceived ini think it's fitting for my very first post to be a thread on jw.net turning myself in to any lurking elders out there on a witch-hunt to cleanse the congregation so that god's choosen ones can "remain in god's love.
" so i'm sorry to all you awesome, truthful apostates on this site, but this thread is really intended for any lurking nazis -- i mean, the taliban -- ugh, i mean elders of the world's most "loving" cult religion.. i am an apostate.
here, i'll save you the trouble:.

"Anonymous" featured in WT study lesson photo: deeper meaning?
by JimmyPage inif this has already been discussed i apologize.
i'm only here sporadically anymore.
in a recent wt study a photo was featured in the magazine that showed a "brother" ignoring the "worldly" people around him, including one who appeared to represent the group "anonymous".. i have come to learn that nothing can be taken at surface value when it comes to the borg.

I ran into an active JW...surprised
by nolongerconfused inso as you all know, i have fully faded...i'm completely out and have not told the elders or da myself...just faded 100%.... so i run into an active jw, different congregation, and as i walk past him i say, "hey so and so, how are you doing?
"....he looks down, doesnt dare look at me in the eyeball and keeps walking...then a split second later he turns around and says, hey man, aren't yuo disfellowshipped?....
i was like wtf?...lol, i said "not that i know of"...i asked him who told him such thing?...he wouldnt tell me who, but he had "heard"...so i just left it at that and told him if he wants to know then to contact my ex-elders.... my thing is, could the elders have df'ed me without me knowing it?...i have not been accused of their so called "apostasy", nor have i received a letter requesting info or to set up a meeting, nor a call...the coordinating elder (formally president/presiding overseer) still texts me all the time saying hi etc...no religious texts or anything like that).

There is no such thing as '100% fully faded.'
You may not have family and some friends bugging you but word gets around and in most JWs eyes (and thanks to a WT from last yr cant remember which) they view and treat those who do not REGULARLY ATTEND MEETINGS as DFd!
Its not something thats spelled out but its something properly conditioned Dubs know. Just like they KNOW not to attend a funneral in a church even tho its spose to be a personal decision.

Easy questions others make difficult to answer
by Terry inthat is a question.
it is asked by somebody who does exist.. that question could not be asked if there actually were nothing.. .
that is a question asked only by people who exist.. if there were nothing-- the question would not be asked because it could not be asked.. .

The Pope Is Stepping Down.........WHY?
by Giordano inpopes have stepped down before but it's rare........the last one was pope gregory in 1415.. benedict cites poor health....perhaps so.
http://www.alternet.org/news-amp-politics/pope-benedict-stepping-down-shocking-abdication.
"citing age and infirmity as his reason for leaving the papacy, benedict's action comes................... less than a month after the decades-old child abuse scandal drew nearer to the pope's door, with revelations published in the los angeles times earlier this month that cardinal roger mahony, then archbishop of los angeles, sought to evade the law in cases involving the sexual abuse of children by the priests in his charge by sending them to treatment facilities in states that did not require health professionals to report the crimes to authorities.. at the time that mahony was covering up the crimes of his priests, benedict, then known as cardinal joseph ratzinger, led the congregation for the doctrine of the faith, the vatican office that oversaw such matters.

Metatron:
You'll remember the next 2 years for the rest of your life. More and more weird things will happen. Dec. 21, 2012 wasn't an end, it was simply a beginning.
Expect a tidal wave of exposure of horrible, corrupt and crazy stuff all over the world. Expect economic and political upheaval as the Powers That Be lose control and fight desperately to hold on.
metatron
I agree!
IMO what is going on is a MAJOR conscous change/shift in the world. The old industrious age is dying fast and the next generation is taking over. The old ways have NO hope of surviving in the 21st century.
