200,000 evacuated last night in Northern California.
by compound complex inwhere a few of us here on the forum live is in an emergency situation.
the main spillway on oroville dam -- the tallest dam in the usa -- is damaged.
the emergency spillway, never used before in the 48 years the dam has operated, is eroding.. major confusion and panic occurred when the order went out sunday, late afternoon: this is not a drill!.

Anyone read the latest Awake (on the supernatural)?
by LoveUniHateExams injust read some of this latest awake on the org's webshite.. it begins by talking about the 'supernatural' - wizards, witches, vampires, etc.
- their popularity and why they might appeal to people.
then it goes on to state the wt belief that someone is 'behind it'.. now, i like a few horror/scary films - when i was a kid, i always actually liked being a bit scared by them, tbh.. the silence of the lambs, a nightmare on elm street (1984), the ring, the witch, the thing (1982) and a few others are all great, imo.. they are just genres and subgenres of film, that's all.

Thanks for putting this up I will listen to it later ,Paul was also interviewed on TV some time ago that is also worth watching ,whether it is the same interview or not I`m not sure.
Highly reccomended , he is very well composed and not bitter in his presentation of his experiences and family fallout of his leaving the Jehovahs Witnesses .

by Randy notmarsh inlet's throw a hypothetical.
let's say that a body of elders is looking for someone in a different congregation, but don't know what kh he attends, how do they go on about it?

Its really not that hard to find anybody you are looking for : telephone books ,Electoral roles ,to name just two in OZ
The law in Australia is that all over the age of 18 are to register to vote even if they choose not to for a variety of reasons , so JW`s do so obeying Rom.13
I have found old associates using the telephone book also .
I dont know what the situation is in other countrys.

This must be very traumatic for all the people affected by this evacuation/emergency.
Thanks to you CoCo and flipper for the updates . It is being reported on here in OZ and our thoughts and well wishes are with all those affected .
Its hard to imagine in this day and age that such a potential disaster can happen uprooting so many people from the comfort of their own homes.
Take care

by darkspilver inday 5 in court - and apparently the plaintiff stephanie fessler has decided to settle..... http://www.pennlive.com/news/2017/02/jehovahs_witness_sexual_abuse.html.

I think that every time a child sexual abuse case against the Jehovahs Witnesses is settled out of court with a gag clause against speaking about the settlement agreed upon by both partys doesnt bode well for the JW`s.
In their paying for a settlement , it is an admission of guilt / culpability .on their part.
If they were completely innocent guilt free why wouldnt they fight tooth and nail to defend themselves.?
Because they are not innocent guilt free .and thats why they are paying to shut the victims up.

JW Podcast About The Shenanigans of the Borg in Australia
by dubstepped inso here's a link to the latest jw podcast.
in it they talk about how the organization is structuring things in australia to get out of paying money to victims of abuse.
the short version, as i remember it, is that they are making each congregation its own individual charity.
