  I can't imagine caring about the Super Bowl or any professional football game nor can my son or his father; so I'm sure there are many, many men who aren't into football, even the Super Bowl.

  the ass hall is about 10 miles from here, and here is 3000 miles from my last congregation, so i figured what the hay, i'll step into the twilight zone, see what it's like after a few years away from it all.

  i was bored to a teary-eyed yawn within 10 minutes of sitting (next a nwt-guarded reserved seat, ahh, memories.)..

  i caught the last few minutes of the wt study and then came "giving attention to the needs of the circuit".

  i was there with 7 others from the launrdy............... it started out with dan smoally (not even 30 years old and partaking) telling about what max larson (head of the whole factory) told him "there was no way he was one of the anointed!

  JW used Child Abuse as Example of Breaking Professional Descrition Legitim.

  by GermanXJW in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  when i commented on the case of the canadain sextuplets i referred to an essay of two german jw attorneys, armin pikl (jw lawyer) and gajus glockentin (bethelite) from the year 1998. i turned some pages and came across another remarkable statement.

  you still find the whole essay on the watchtower's server: http://wachtturm.de/0/pdf/rec/ues/1998/1998-09-01.pdf.

  the statement on page 30 deals with the accusation that jw would tell their members to break professional descrition.
