  The Watchtower Society and Corporate Manslaughter

  by nicolaou in

  1. social
  2. current

  as the news item posted below reports, the uk government is considering the introduction of a new offence of corporate manslaughter.. .

  i wonder how this will affect the minds of the watchtower legal dept' as they try to cover their masters 'corporate' asses once again.. .

  while still holding out against any meaningful reform of their fatal 'no blood transfusion' policy they will now have to justify themselves as the originators, promoters and enforcers of said policy while simutaneously attempting to absolve themselves of any responsibility of the consequences thereof.. .

  Hello Nic:

  Interesting thread. Please could you keep an eye on this and let us know out here in the colonies if and when it becomes law. It will certainly be worth a read of the legislation if it is passed.

  Also, I'm about to email you something regarding Friern Barnet. If you could peruse it and get back to me it would be much appreciated.

  And finally, how is the Do-Not-Call thing going? Any developments? Anyone using the letters etc?

  well...as some of you already know, i have a pet bird (parakeet).

  i adopted her several months ago from the toronto humane society.

  she's come a long long ways since when i first got her.. when i first got her, she was terrified of people.. 3 months later, she now hops up on my finger, and will allow me to scratch her head and neck.

  And what's even better is that if guests pop around unexpectedly, you can serve up a short order of wings!

  At the risk of derailing the thread (sorry!), it's really amazing how many of them requested fried chicken as their last meal. Maybe there's some connection here that society is missing?

  Covenants.... Good or Bad?

  by TR in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  neighborhood covenants, that is.. in the u.s., many neighborhoods have covenants or rules that govern what a home owner can or can't do with his/her property/home.

  this keeps some people from painting their house neon blue, or building a half-assed skate board park in their front yard.

  some covenants won't allow a child day care, or adult care facility, mainly because of the extra traffic they may bring.

  Hi TR:

  Scully basically said it all. If you try to make your do-not-call campaign an "official" mechanism through the covenant, the WT will shoot you down in court. But, if an individual makes the do not call demand, that is an entirely different picture. Thus, if say you went to the next meeting with an armload of material on the JW's sending paedophiles to people's doors, and some pro-forma letters, and every single householder decided, of their own volition, to send 'em in to the congregation and the Watchtower, then there is really not much the WT can do about it.

  Now, here's a link to a report on Nic's site about a householder who took a JW to court after she had made a do not call request, and she won: http://www.do-not-call.org/webs/trespass.htm

  Of course, threats of legal action are pointless without teeth. So you might want to sound out a local lawyer and find out if they would be willing to take a case on in this respect (and how much it would cost, of course). Perhaps your local covenant could spread the cost?

  This is just my opinion, but this whole area of linking the paedophile at the door issue with do not call requests is an excellent, but unexplored opportunity.

  She has no excuse. She admits what happened. I rarely support usage of the death penalty, but this is one instance where they should fry the bitch.

  this is my final and very last post after this i will not return here as someone here made something clear to me.

  my faith in god and jesus christ cannot and i will not tolerate others who do not believe to attempt to stumble me or change my mind at all.

  my faith stands strong and true and none of you can do nothing to change it.. gods word say "do not cast your pearls before swine".
