Ray Franz responds to IW issues
by Amazing innote: i changed the title from "talked w/ ray franz today" because the new title seems better connected to the original post.
i discussed the issues island woman raised regarding ray franz, ewart chitty, leo greenlees, how this relates to supporting silentlambs, or how right or wrong bill bowen may be.. .
ray franz stated again, as he did in his earleir post through me, and previous conversations with me, that he has never dealt with any issue regarding pedophilia among jws.

Bible Student's C.T Russell gave 'organisation' the thumbs down!
by be wise inc. t. russell was against organizing his own religion, or at least he said so (see the watchtower, 1895 p.216; also 1894 p.384 & 1893 p.266).
"the endeavor to compel all men to think alike on all subjects, culminated in the great apostasy and the development of the great papal system, and thereby the gospel, the one faith that paul and the other apostles set forth, was lost - buried under the mass of uninspired decrees of popes and councils.
the unity of the early church, based upon the simple gospel and bound only by love, gave place to the bondage of the church of rome...each new reform movement (like protestantism) has made the failure of attempting to make a creed just large enough for its prime movers.

Should the US & Canada use the same currency?
by JH insince a few years, the euro has been introduced in europe.
many countries share the same currency.. would it be a good idea if everyone in north america would use the american dollar just like everyone uses the euro in europe?
would this be financially beneficial, or would this be a first step in canada becoming a part of the us?
