Doesn't that catholic church also condemn child abuse?
Where did that PSA come from, and where did it go to?
Why do they keep talking about abuse?

he had a stable job for a long time.
it was not without problems but it was there.

My college education was blamed by a family member of mine for making me think critically... ok... and...
Really I can honestly say my analytical approach to this being a complete dangerous cult had zero to do with college. College doesn't make critical thinkers, but it does work well for them.

WTBTS Blame decision tree
- Satan
- Women
- Homosexuals
I guess satan is the fail safe for all blame, if it wasn't a homosexual, or a woman, well... Satan.

Why using Jehovah for God's name is as good as using Yahweh
by oppostate inin another thread i wrote some notes about why using jehovah in english is as good as using yahweh.
i'm starting a discussion on this topic because it sounds quite ignorant to hear people talk of the monk who started using it in latin without really understanding why the monk did so.. the spanish dominican monk, raymundus martini, in 1270, didn't get hoodwinked by an old jewish superstition about pronouncing the divine name with the vowel points of another word.. 1. first the vowel points of adonay and jehovah cannot be the same for grammatical reasons.
you just can't use the same vowel points because some vowels aren't paired with some consonants in pronouncing hebrew words.

Did you read my explanation for this odd old PSA? I think this abuse storm has been brewing for a while, and I don't think their intention was ever for anyone to see or care about that PSA. It is a business/legal CYA move. If they had promoted it to us back then it may have seemed strange, but now, in retrospect, there is a record of them doing something proactive even though virtually no one in org ever knew it or saw it. The legal team's work I believe. Preparing for the future ass kicking they were sure to get, to give something defensible.

Celebrating small victories
by StarTrekAngel indon't want to get into a lot of detail but it seems like my wife is finally having some flashes of awareness.
she's got them before, but not in very touchy subjects.
she was willing to seat down with me and look over some websites talking about some very controversial subjects that i do not dare to write about at the moment.

"the governing body asked me..." I am sure its more like "The legal department begged me"
Also this old PSA, very interesting, very covert, I am sure this was a legal move from my own experience in business and legal, they didn't really promote it, but by releasing it they put something on record back then showing "proactivity" if you will. Very clever and will probably elude the skepticism of most R&F.

This is what I have been waiting for
I too agree that we may never know the exact pronunciation with definite surety,
lol, see that wasn't so bad.
This troll is heading back to his bridge now.
Can I play another goofy video yet?
