  NEED YOUR HELP TO SAVE SEXTUPLETS.....WRITE THE CANADA MEDIA

  by skeeter1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  canada's first sextuplets were born to jehovah's witness parents.

  they were born at 25 weeks (not 40 weeks as is common with full-term).

  due to their prematurity, they will most likely need blood transfusions.

  Can Warren Jeffs Safely Hide Behind Religious Freedom? Watchtower?

  by skeeter1 in

  1. social
  2. current

  i heard on the news that warren jeffs defense is "religious freedom" which precludes the government from persecuting him.

  he, apparently, strongly believes he is gaining god's glory by having multiple wives & marrying young girls.

  he thinks these actions are ordained by god.

  Eat a Placenta?

  by skeeter1 in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  imagine, you are tom cruise/chruch of scientology publicist.

  you have a public relations problem - the public thinks tom & his group are wacked out, cult members.. then, tom cruise says to a reporter that he's ready to eat the placenta of his new child after it births.. lol!

  this really helps the church of scientology/tom's next movie's popularity.. i realize that today's fathers don't want to wait in a waiting room with a cigar.
