hello in conversation today with brother-in- law who is still in the borg.he said while he may have questions about the whole god issue he doesn't know of any other religion that refuses to kill their fellow believer if politicians say you must.
that is a strong plus point for him on the virtues of the wt.
is he correct?
Christadelphians conscientously objected during the American Civil War. In fact a whole lot of their beliefs which preceded Russell by half a century look familiar.
did you kill anyone?
rape anyone?...
" gary said "no, i was caught cheating on my wife with"... i looked at the jw and said, "look man, we all fall short of the glory of god, right?"..
I think that adultry is a symptom of a deeper problem (Einstein like deduction eh?).
I'm married to a smoking hot women with a great personality. If she told me today, remember that time 15 years ago when I and *****......it would not be the end of the world.
I would strongly prefer if my wife did not commit adultry, but having been married 27 years, I can look back and see that there were times when it could have happened.
Abuse as a dealbreaker....Yes! Adultry.....many marriages have survived successfully afterwards. In some cases traumatic incidents can bring you closer with the aid of a good family therapist.
of course, as it's the murdering, war-crime-committing, un-mandate-ignoring, nuclear-non-proliferation-flouting israeli friends of america, they probably won't see it as an issue at all.. funny that ... they were dead keen on going to war over just the hint of this very thing but probably won't even condemn it.. it's about time that sanctions were imposed on israel.

What is Henry's physical therapy routine? Does he mostly use a wheel chair or crutches or a combo? Is he able to drive with the aid of adaptive technology ?

The Geneva Conventions ban the use of white phosphorus as an incendiary weapon against civilian populations and in air attacks against military forces in civilian areas.
The above statement might lead you to believe that the Israelis violated the Geneva convention.
WP is allowed in other forms for use by the military in combat situations both as a smokescreen and incendiary device against enemy combatants.
Nobody including the BBC has accused Israel of violating the Geneva Convention.

Israel says it used phosphorus shells in Lebanon Sun 22 Oct 2006 5:52 PM ET
JERUSALEM, Oct 22 (Reuters) - Israel confirmed on Sunday it had used phosporus shells, a controversial munition condemned by many human rights groups, during its war against Hezbollah guerrillas in Lebanon.
The International Red Cross and other human rights organisations have urged a world ban on the munitions, saying they cause undue suffering through severe burns.
An Israeli military spokesman confirmed a report in Israel's left-leaning newspaper Haaretz that it had used phosphorus munitions in the 34-day offensive against Hezbollah, which ended in a U.N.-brokered ceasefire on Aug. 14.
"The army made use of phosphorus shells during the recent conflict with Hezbollah in Lebanon for the purpose of attacking military targets located in open areas," the Israeli military said in a statement.
"According to international law, the usage of phosphorus ammunition is permitted and the army conforms to international regulations and standards."
The United States has acknowledged using incendiary white-phosphorus munitions in a 2004 assault against insurgents in the Iraqi city of Falluja. It says using them against enemy fighters is legal and not banned by any convention.
Human Rights Watch has also accused Israel of using cluster bombs in populated areas of southern Lebanon during the war, which killed about 1,200 Lebanese and 157 Israelis.
Hezbollah, which fired nearly 4,000 rockets into northern Israel, was also accused by human rights groups of using cluster munitions, which are small bomblets that remain unexploded on the ground.

The US won't denounce Israel for using WP because, the US has used it themselves. WP is used in military operations as both cover for troops (smokescreen) and to flush enemy combatants out of trenches (incendiary). The Geneva Convention ban on WP applies to its apllication as a weapon against civilians only. Should WP be banned completely in all its forms for use on civilians or military under the Geneva Convention? Human Rights groups think so. Currently the use of WP for certain military applications is allowed, so the US and Israel will probably continue to use it until it is permanently banned.
Hezbollah is facing similar criticism from human rights groups.
The US will never denounce Israel politically because it represents the only true ally this country has had or will likely ever have in the Middle East.
jeff skilling, one of the top sleazebags who screwed thousands of people out of their jobs, pension and livelihood at enron, will be sentenced tomorrow.
what sentence would you give this creep if it were up to you?.

Forget the typical plea bargained "country club" minimum security facility.
1) Have him serve his entire sentence with the general prison population at a maximum security state penetentary.
2) Make sure he always has a roommate.

In a nutshell, a fully indoctrinated Witness would rather die or watch others die than to give up a grain of their 'truth'. They think this is upholding Jehovah's name.
jgnat The nonJW mind will always question the underlying reasoning. Thanks for the reality check!
Ask your mother in law if she would still feel this way if the Catholic Church was still excommunicating people for heresy, and those people committed suicide for losing their family. Ask her if she'd still feel this way if her husband was DF'd and then committed suicide.
Thanks Mary, I will!
