This is truly disgusting , I think the Australian Royal Commission would even be interested in these letters showing just where the Governing Body of JW`s has their priorities.$$$$$$ rather than sexually Abused Children.
Certainly the Russian Government would also see just what the priorities are with the WT/JW religion$$$$$$ not people
News people Journalists who have taken an interest in WT/JW goings on should be informed about these letters that highlight their main concern is all about the money Surely there is a story their.
Wasnt their people who were involved in the film "Spotlight" at a meeting about JW`s recently ? Maybe they would be interested in these letters .
If they could produce a movie like spotlight on the JW religion that would be heaven sent.

The Alliances for Constitutional Sex Offenders Laws
by John Davis ini was listening to the news today and heard of this organization.
it advocates for the removal of sex offenders registries or at least the reduction of its use and who has to register for it.
just one example of its work is to advocate for what the la district attorney's office is doing by working with sex offenders to get their names off the registry.

I think you make a good case scratchme1010
As I said, as is, the sex offender registry doesn't do what it's meant to do. There are no easy answers, but what we have certainly hasn't reduced nor stopped sex crimes at all.
Your review is sensible and logical.

2017 International Regional Convention, Toronto – Entertainment at Sony Centre
by SAHS ini’ve been hearing from several very reliable sources that there will be an exclusive elite gala entertainment event hosted by the watch tower organization, featuring specially chosen jehovah’s witnesses of outstanding talent as well as spiritual reputation, at the sony centre (formerly called the o’keefe centre) in toronto, ontario (canada) as a special “after hours” addition to the 2017 special international convention.. those chosen have to meet very strict criteria, including, not so much technical and popular talents, but, rather, their spiritual maturity which can be easily and practically related to by the audience (i.e., degree of conformity – you know what i mean!).
a notable and very well-known professional “super star” from some other country (i don’t know which one) who has achieved highly recognized and popular talent was surprisingly not chosen to participate in the extra entertainment program, whereas other performers with rather ho-hum musical abilities ended up being selected, ostensibly for their altruistic and “theocratic” qualities.
(something tells me that there is going to be some jealousy and indignant, hard feelings over this rather authoritarian, arbitrary selection process.

Who is benefiting from Watchtower Corporation financially
by John Davis inwho do you believe is financially benefiting from watchtower business dealings.
i know about the gold apple watch, but that is only a small percentage of the billions that they have.
so who do you think is keeping all of this money.

the lawyers....
And those GB members who know without doubt they are on a good wicket and have siphoned off money to offshore accounts.
As their former president J.F.Rutherford said "religion is a snare and a racket "
Never was a truer word spoken by anybody associated with the WTB&TS

White clean shaven man runs over muslims
by silentbuddha inso in england they report a "white clean-shaven man" mowed down worshippers at a mosque.
why do they never make such detailed descriptions when muslims do the same?.
i hope this event isn't a bad turning point.

Ruby456 Of course muslims have their own motives for committing these atrocitys but are they justified ?
Are those that retalliate against them with the same barbarism are they justified ? I dont think so in either case.
In both scenarios innocent men women and children are either killed or maimed moreso than the armed combatants.
Whether you agree with the war against Muslim extremism / ISIS /Taliban or not ,a war against armed forces ,the Isis /Daesh have taken it to a new level in targeting civillians among the Coalition of Nations
This is unprecedented in warfare targeting civillians specifically .And I just think its a human response that some might think its right to to fight back with the same tactit.
The sad fact about warfare is that their have always been civillian casualties when targeting millitary goals.
Think of Dresden germany Hiroshima ,Nagasaki,Japan the blitz of london etc,etc.
I dont have an answer to this problem I`m just putting my 2 cents worth in for all its worth and for other like yourself to comment on.

As I said in a previous thread If Muslim extremists keep committing atrocitys against civillians in western nations sooner or later you will see like minded non muslim people retalliating and committing their own atrocitys against the muslims.
And this just seems to be what this attack was all about.,it doesnt make it right but I can understand the motive behind it .
You keep attacking me and sooner or later I`m going to fight back on your terms.and see how you like it.
This is only going to get more uglier unless a real solution is found and that I think rests with the Muslim community especially their Imans /leaders taking ownership of this problem within their community.
