Heck, I remember in the 60's some witnesses saying that you should not get married until after Armageddon. That way if a potential marriage mate survived Armageddon you would know that they were really 'spiritual' and that they loved Jehovah. Some things never change, they just get 'spun' differently. Same $hit, different day.

Is the WTS effectively 'pimping out' sisters?
by Simon ini can't remember the topic with the discussion about the talk where they suggested that sisters should only consider ministerial servants as potential marriage partners but think about the implications more.. are they trying to use the potential affections of sisters to enourage brothers to do more and work harder?.
isn't this a form of 'pimping out' the sisters by limiting their attention to the people contributing to them?.
it seems to cross a line to me but i guess it's not vastly different to "only marry another jw".. what do you think?.

Thanks for the 'Christmas gift' idea FadeToBlack! I've picked out my gift already. They are Tony the Tiger socks from the Kelloggs Frosted Flakes commercials. After all, Tony the third thinks that he is 'GREAT' and he's a 'frosted flake' too.

Caleb, Sophia and their Mormon cousins are a BLATANT ripoff of the old Davey and Goliath kids religious television show of the 1960's. It was produced by the Lutheran Church in America and created by Art Clokey of Gumby and Pokey fame. The Watchtower Society has NEVER had an original creative thought but steals ideas from others and then claims them for their own. Shades of Charles Taze Russell anyone?

GC seems to like to 'push' his 'Prosperity doctrine' in regards to'JEHOVAH'(tm) blessing his witnesses. And as a great side benefit he can count his TIME preaching and each post is a 'return visit'. It is a win-win situation for him. He can soothe his conscience for being here and still convince himself that he has the 'TRUTH' (tm) by castigating those who accept TTATT.

Consider the "outcome" when elders apply the two-witness "rule"
by AndersonsInfo injehovahs witnesses two-witness rule is applied by elders when a witness member accuses another member of a sin, even if that sin is a criminal act.
if there arent two witnesses to the accusation, it goes nowhere, including not being reported to the authorities.
and in the case of an allegation of child abuse, the accused is free to molest again.. watchtower attorney, jim mccabe, recently stated this about jehovahs witnesses two-witness rule which he described as a bible-based belief :.

Enzo, I have two questions for you:
Are you an ELDER?
Do you have a copy of WRITTEN instructions from the WATCHTOWER SOCIETY and its GOVERNING BODY to back up your claims?
If the answer is NO to both of these questions then you are only repeating hearsay and expressing your opinion. Hot air is free and you seem to be full of it.

Does The State Have The Right To Quarantine Someone Because They Might Have Ebola?
by minimus inno doubt you have heard about the nurse that thumbed her nose to the state and went out of the house in spite of being ordered to stay at home.
what is your opinion on this?.

I live in Maine and have been following this on the news. The Governor has asked her to take a blood test for Ebola but so far I have not heard whether she is willing to comply. I agree with Witness My Fury that she is stupid and selfish. She is a nurse and she should know better. Having Libertarian leanings, I am torn as to how much the government should interfere, however I feel that her conscience should guide her in weighing her own personal interests against the harm she may bring to other people. I understand that she is willing to compromise on the issue but I have not heard anything on the news about what that compromise may entail. People like this bother me because if the shoe was on the other foot they usually sream loud and long that 'something must be done'. (That is just my opinion and I don't know how this woman feels one way or the other)
