Geoffrey Jackson. Seems he will be compelled to front up.
by umbertoecho inpray for brother jackson of the governing body!.
in todays news from australia it appears that, despite his previous declination to appear when invited, justice mcclellan from the australian royal commission on child sex abuse will officially summon brother geoffrey jackson to the stand after all.. ..... the commission was due to conclude its hearings into the jehovahs witnesses on wednesday but justice mcclellan said he will now call geoffrey jackson, a senior member of the churchs governing body in new york who is currently in australia, to appear next week.. .

If any member of the governing body is forced to testify you will need chains to bring him in. Then expect a fake heart attack or some other life threatening condition requiring a long protracted convalescence under a doctors care where questions are too stressful to answer. Just my personal prediction. -

What will this mean to the future of the Internet?
by truthseeker100 ini read articles like this and wonder what effect it will have on the future of the internet.
will the internet stay as free as it is now or will it lessen?.
i am sure there are many on this site who have a greater knowledge of the implications of this than i do so is this anything we need to worry about?

There is news behind the headlines. Is this much ado about nothing? Or will governments and others take control such as the Chinese government? Maybe the internet is just too big now to control? I hope so.

These were the 'unwanted', the dregs, who had nothing good to contribute to society and deserved only to be cast away from the civilized.
Flash forward to July - 2015.
these convicts, cast out of decent society, are now heading a Royal Commission to find out if a religious organization has been acting in a indecent, immoral and unlawful manner.
I guess Karma's a bitch! LOL
At least those initial societal dregs weren't mentally diseased apostates. The US were also thought of as criminals by the Royals in Britain and it was the US that gave us the Watchtower.

Quality Thinking - Warning: Long Post Ahead
by Viviane inrecently, several threads have had some debate about logic, evidence, critical thinking and skepticism.
i wanted to write a post discussing those things, hopefully to clarify what those things are, why they are important and how to use those tools.
first, logic, at its core, is simply a method for how to reason validly, how to draw conclusions based on a premise.

ron rawson: their method seems to be draw a conclusion, then find means to support it.
That is so true. I have heard witnesses tell me about their experience learning to be witnesses. One witness told me that he said to his study conductor "If you can show it to me in the bible I'll believe it." When you start off with reasoning like that your goose is cooked. His conclusion was already formed. The bible is the truth. He was very appreciative of the witnesses setting him straight on what the bible says.
Critical thinking is important and as a part of critical thinking it's important to realize when your conclusions about something are wrong. Sometimes that's the most difficult thing for any of us to do. Proving someone wrong on something sometimes leads to all sorts of new discoveries.

Won't get fooled again ...Moon Landing.
by The Rebel inso i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

DJS:And perhaps the most dangerous thing about you is that you shroud your theorist self in a cloak of enlightenment while trying to sway others. Those exiting the Dark Tower need a lot of things - new religions and conspiracy theories aren't among them.
Well said. I wonder what it is in the JW mind that attracts them to conspiracy theories? To believe all the nonsense that you have to believe to be a witness is really astounding when you sit back and think about it. For some it's just a stage but for others like my parents who beat it to death it still astounds me. Ignorance of anything should be just a stage in ones life when I stop learning it will be because I'm dead.
In fairness to Rebel I think his/her post has elicited some interesting responses and it was a nice break from reading about the Australian Royal Commission. Maybe that was the intent of the OP. I for one believe that man landed on the moon. Remember there is no such thing as a stupid question but there are lots of stupid sources that provide answers those same questions.

Viviane LOL Maybe your needed.
Rebel:Truth seeker my university degree, is from the university of life.
I know as one gets older you forget about being recognized for your achievements and one of your biggest achievements was escaping the belief system of that cult. There is nothing wrong with asking questions and there is no such thing a stupid question.
I am sorry for my comment I meant no disrespect.

Sorry Rebel I couldn't resist. Do you have a University near you? If so email their science department and ask about your concerns I am sure they can find someone to address your concerns. They actually love questions from John Q Public. -

Sir 82:The scary thing is that people utterly incapable of determining whether the moon landings were real or not, are going to be electing the next POTUS, with (among other things) the trigger finger on the nuclear arsenal.
This is why Donald Trump is the leading GOP candidate as of now.
LOL Scary isn't it.
Grab your tinfoil hats conspiracy theorist Donald Trump is going to be our next Commander and Chief he already knows how the Rothschild's et al control the globe. You can see it in the images written on American Currency. Chem trails are actually put there for a diversion to get our attention away from the new world take over of the elite. Alex Jones https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Jones_(radio_host) has covered it already.
Don't even get me started on the communist plots under-way.

Did you hear that!? His Honour is insisting that Jackson attend the Royal Commission
by umbertoecho ini actually started clapping at that point, as his honour explained to the wt type creep sycophantic slithery lawyer that........" i understand that we all have issues to face in life and .....that is a part of life...........however it has become obvious that this man ....is in such a position to assist with this investigation.....".
it boils down to the fact that stewart outright accused the latest witness of misleading the royal commission and this lead to some document searches which led his honour to conclude that they had been protecting mr jackson.
this was a warm and fluffy moment folks.................brilliant stuff!!!!!

I think if he is forced to testify he'll fake a heart attack or some other ailment that will require a long term rehabilitation and then he can claim the I don't recall defense.
