ISIS Destruction of Ancient Palmyra Temple
by freemindfade inanyone who has read what happened here, both to the ancient site and also the grizzly murder of antiquity scholar khalid asaad, consider this.
what religious/theocracy on earth now most resembles the stories of "god's chosen people" of the old testament?
probably isis does.

Like others here, I have no contact with JWs anymore - have not spotted them out on the door knocking either in my street.
I do see them sitting at their tables in town with magazines etc. Next time I'll ask them your question.

Is It Time to regroup?
by John Aquila inhow much do you want to bet that the organization has already started preparing articles for the watchtower magazines, convention talks, circuit overseers talks and letters to bodies of elders, to refute what is happening in australia?
.
right now the most important thing for the wt to do is protect their image that they are gods visible organization.especially in the u.s. and latin american countries.

Speculation ( not theory ) on child abuse inquiries.
by DATA-DOG inmost of you, like me, keep yourself informed as to what's happening in jw-land.
like me, you make it your business to know what's going on.
so i'm wondering why the wtbts is allowing eldubs to appear in these inquiries in australia??

DarioKelh 'its because lett, morris, losch, herd, jackson, sanderson and what's-his-name will NEVER sit in the hot seat themselves. They simply ignore summons and refuse to appear.'
If so, Cardinal Pell will manage to look superior (even if he withholds evidence) as he is returning to Aust to front up again to the RC later on for further evidence. Something the gb could learn from as hiding away in their dormitories shows their complete and utter guilt more so than their Catholic church foe.

My 10 year old son almost Outed me as when someone showed him a Watchtower! "The Generation that won't die"
by PokerPlayerPhil ini had a photo copy of the magazine "the generation that will never die!
" sitting in my office, he saw it and being the voracious reader he is, he asked me "why did the magazine say all those people would never die?
" i told him "humans make mistakes, they were wrong by claiming that.

PPPhil,
Your boy is not only smart but sensitive to info that adults gloss over - like the red faced elder who would certainly remember 1980.

Serena Williams
by New day ini am a big tennis fan and today i watched serena williams win the australian open, one of the four tournaments which make up the pinnacle of achievement in the tennis world, the grand slam.
in her victory speech the first thing she said was that she thanked her god jehovah for the victory.
now i know that rumours have circulated for a long time as to whether she is a baptised witness or not, but she is definitely associated with witnesses .

Serena's ego is overly large. Such a bulk is unable to fit into becoming a 'humble jw'. :)

Islam - Where Does This End?
by Sam Whiskey indoes this end with them actually attempting to take over the world as they profess to want to do?
granted, they are "extremists", but can they really garner enough extremist converts to make a run at it?
keep in mind, i have no fear of them.

Living close to Indonesia which has the largest Muslim population at 209,120,000 can be scary.
