The Amish folks are getting into the act too. I could tell by the way they were dressed they were Amish. I don't know if they were there for recruiting purposes, but at a subway station a month or so ago, a big group of them were singing in the station and there were about two people handing out literature. I don't think they recruit so I guess they were just there for entertainment purposes and the literature was probably for folks who wanted to know more about them.

The 2 witness rule
by tim hooper ini've just been informed by a jw apologist that regarding the 2 witness rule in cases of child abuse, the child himself counts as 1 of the witnesses.
he also stated that if 2 children complain about abuse seperately, the 2 children then count as 2 witnesses.. any thoughts please?.

Since they claim everything they do is from the Bible I want to know what scripture mentions the two witness rule.

Backseat, my father, an elder was I hospice,it was just the next step to his illness. Why do the Dubs in your area feel they have to go to the elders for that ?
Just shows it's a cult since they're not all on the same page.

THe part about the elders checking out YouTube and Facebook to see who's talking negatively about the Borg will be a collosal waste of time.
I'm sure some apostates out there use their real names but then again some don't.
I myself have three different Twitter and FB accounts and a few Disqus accounts.
But maybe something good will come of it, the elders will learn TTATT while they're trying to scout out all the apostates.

Always Busy - Even before Jimmy Carter said Peace and Security, I remember an Assembly at Yankee Stadium in the early 70's, that day the headlines on the New York Daily News had those exact same words (I don't remember what the story was behind the headlines). So of course, one of the speakers just had to work that into his talk and of course a few of the folks in the audience who had the paper started waving it around like it came straight from Jesus and they were touch by the heavenly spirit or something. The words peace and security have been around for centuries, whenever they're used together it sends the JWs into a frenzy.

Apple Cider Vinegar
by poppers ini've been drinking 1 tbs with a glass of water twice daily for digestion for about 3 weeks now.
i've found it helps, but it also acts as an appetite suppressant; i've lost several pounds since using it.
i'm consuming fewer calories because i'm just not as hungry as before.

To avoid the acid on the teeth issue I just use a straw and put the straw all the way back in my mouth so the drink just goes straight down with filling up my mouth.

I hope you're not using the Heinz brand vinegar.
Bragg's Organic Apple Cider Vinegar is the one that is very beneficial to your health, as someone mentioned above it has "the mother" in it. Years ago you used to see something floating in the bottle that did look kinda gross, but now it just looks kinda hazy in the bottom part.

We had the ministry on Friday nights up until the early 70's. Then it got changed over to Thursdays. Everyone looks forward to Friday as the end of the work/school week, but noooo, Dubs had to come home eat and go back out again instead of resting in front of the TV or something.
