  congratulations for all the information you have given on the legal framework of the watchtower.. in spain, the watchtower is following the instructions coming from patterson that works exclusively with the law firm baker & mckenzie.

  VERY short day at the Arlington/Dallas International Convention-My Observations

  by CaptainSchmideo in

  okay, some good takeaway:.

  i have never been to a convention quite like this before.

  a very friendly vibe all around, lots of banners and posters with sayings like "sending love to all our brothers", "see you in the paradise", "ecuador sends greetings", and "jehovahs-witness.net" (okay, i lied on that last one...).

  Yeah Rebel. "See you in Paradise" is SUPER creepy. What's next for JWs? First thing I thought of when I read that was Jim Jones.

  Sounds like Losch is a horny guy thinking every woman wants him!

  I wouldn't go to it, even if it was Disney. I don't do super hot. Can you get out of it by saying it's too hot for you to go/you're sick. Strep throat is a good one, you feel it coming on and don't want to infect anyone at the convention. Sick tummy, headache, wierd taste in your mouth, and sore throat are strep's main symptoms when it's coming on.

  two copies of this invitation were pinned to the corkboard at the post office this morning: a world government, why do we need one, is it possible, who is qualified to rule?.

  i know this invitation hand-out has been discussed but i missed this part - that wt obviously is saying they are qualified to rule the world.

  i can't take it.

  jw.org getting out of hand

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seems the watchtower staff have made a runaway train with the introduction of the mark jw.org.. the combination of using a gadget driven platform and the fact that the common jw is low educated and easely influenced.

  by new occurrings in their religion makes the situation getting out of hand.. proof: gb members wearing jw.org buttons during their speech, gifts with jw.org are given away, umbrellas with the jw.org are available.

  jw.org is more important then god, his son and the gospel.. it's the gadget and the jw.org mark that counts.. i am so happy my grandparents are not confronted with these idiots.. it's a runaway train heading to the end of the track.. gorby .

  It may look slick, but once the general population figures out that it's the Jehovah's Witnesses, they will run in the opposite direction!

  Scientology had its Dianetics book. It looked cool, and I even bought one. I read the first page and couldn't understand it. So, I put it down. I never knew it was Scientology until later on. Had I known about Scientology, I wouldn't have bought the book. But, at that time, Scientology was a mystery religion of th stars.

  The problem with JW.org is that almost everyone knows/does not agree with JW beliefs. So, no matter how slick jw.org is presented,

  IT'S STILL LIPSTICK ON A PIG!

  US Supreme Court: Hobby Lobby wins we lose

  by designs in

  the old guys sided with hobby lobby today in denying birth control coverage to its female employees based on the owners religious views.

  intact- is viagra for the guys.

  funny how the far right evangelical owners of hobby lobby didn't want to touch that one.... read judge ginburg's scathing counter argument and opinion.. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/13pdf/13-354_olp1.pdf.

  Hobby Lobby pays for alot of birth control, including pills, patches, rings. This case is mainly about the "mroning after/abortion" pill. A reason to go to a National health care system or a complete, private system (like car insurance).

  How the Supreme Courts decision could spill into the JW world.

  by problemaddict in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so in the 5-4 decision today, the courts said an employer could not be forced to cover things mandated by the aca (specifically birth control was the point of contention), if doing so would violate their religious beliefs.. nuts.

  just nuts.. here is what ruth ginsberg wrote in her dissent.

  its 35 pages, but this stood out to me for obvious reasons.. "would the exemption...extend to employers with religiously grounded objections to blood transfusions (jehovah's witnesses); antidepressants (scientologists); medications derived from pigs, including anesthesia, intravenous fluids, and pills coated with gelatin (certain muslims, jews, and hindus); and vaccinations[?

  It wasn't birth control pills. It was the "morning after/abortion pill". Hobby Lobby pays and has always paid for birth control pills, patches, rings, etc.

  You can't force a private person(s) who own a company to pay for something that they are deeply against. Another reason for either going to a complete national healthcare or 100% private healthcare (like car insurance).
