  Sudan woman faces death for apostasy

  by Da.Furious in

  source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-27424064.

  a sudanese court has sentenced a woman to hang for apostasy after she left islam and married a christian man.. "we gave you three days to recant but you insist on not returning to islam.

  i sentence you to be hanged to death," the judge told the woman, afp reports.. western embassies and rights groups had urged sudan to respect the right of the pregnant woman to choose her religion.. local media report the sentence would not be carried out for two years after she has given birth.. meriam yehya ibrahim ishagsudan has a majority muslim population, which is governed by islamic law.. the judge also sentenced her to 100 lashes after convicting her of adultery - because her marriage to a christian man was not valid under islamic law.. earlier in the hearing, an islamic cleric spoke with her in a caged dock for about 30 minutes, afp reports.. then she calmly told the judge: "i am a christian and i never committed apostasy.".

  MTS & Gilead: Can we talk about how much of a FAILURE these 2 schools were/are?

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know quite a few from both of these schools who basically crashed and burned once they got into their assignments.

  graduates of these schools would be thrown into foreign territorities or remote areas without a good visible means of support and would get emotionally, mentally, financially burned out.

  post your experiences or of those you know that went to these pitiful excuses for educational institutions..

  To clarify, these are JW accountants:

  There's a 5 man committee that the borg flys from different bethels in different countries a few times a year and they are the ones behind the financial changes and they have the GB's ear. The idea about the new Kingdom Hall construction funding came from this committee. The main accounting office in Brooklyn has had some lazy habits develop over the years that the GB got wind of, and this was one of several reasons they formed this committee. None of the GB are on this committee.
