well,since most of you are living in the united states,why dont you allow her the right to freedom of religion and allow her to make her own choices ,shes the one that shall have to live with the decision and it is wrong to expect her to live your life instead of her own,those freedoms apply to everyone,not just a select few who choose to make choices for others

prove it .the scripture designates the rod to be a symbol of discipline ,discipline is actually instruction not corporeal punishment,as far as a swat on the butt to get your childs attention,which one of you that have children never gave a harmless swat to your children during their childhood years,what you are portraying us as is child beaters no true,eventually your slander is going to catch up with you.you reap what you sow

The Watchtower's Great Game of "Jenga" and Exposure
by metatron injenga is a simple game in which wooden blocks are neatly piled up - and then removed, one by one, until one person ( the person who loses.
the game) makes the pile collapse.. it is tempting to see the organization in the same way - making small but significant "removals" over time.
they pull out food service.

youre wrong the reason for the downsizing is to streamline the organization so that we can still print literature,hardcover books are very exp[ensive and one awake issue has been discontinued.as far as layoffs,good try,we are not paid,none of us are the brothers at bethel are volunteers and they only are provided what they need to live ,no slaaries ,no wages.insread of building monstrous structures like the catholic church that the parishoners have to support,the money i and many like me donate is used specifically to support the worldwide witnessing wotk,and our worship of jehovah god,we would be stupid if we were not realistic about how to achieve our goals with a budget in mind,thats like telling your neighbor that because hes trying to be financially responsible his family is going to dissolve

i think that its important to note the prophecies regarding the king of the north and the king of the south,also the uns position on religion being affected by the muslim protests and the war in iraq,knowing that the un will be the instrument in the destruction of false religion

it might have a role in the king of the north and the king of the south or it might have a direct impact on how the un views religion and might affect its views.of course the un being the 8th king .and knowing what the uns role is in conjunction with the destruction of false religion

you cany compare us to catholics they are so off the mark its ridulous as far as mormons their door to door ministry is for a finite time and it is funded by the normon church witnesses preach from time they make a dedication to the time they die according to circumstances.we believe jesus return constitutes his turning his attention to mans affairs and directly governing those that are obedient through the channel of the governing body and through the scriptures.we do not want to be associated with any professed christian religion because they fall short of adhering to gods standards as set out in the bible
