I hope WT loses again!
They certainly are not heeding this Bible admonition:
1 Corinthians 7:31
Deal as sparingly as possible with the things the world thrusts on you. This world as you see it is on its way out

Doe, et al v National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA.
by Richard Oliver inthis is a lawsuit brought by watchtower against an insurance company.
the company provided four insurance policies between 1989 and 1993. the policies were there to pay out any liability damages that would arise during that time from any damages caused by elders and mss advice.
there were a number of exceptions that were spelled out in the policy which included that of a sexual nature and that if an elder or ms violated a law then the payout would not qualify.

Incidentally, the Mitchell Center is the namesake of a very wealthy family who offers college scholarships to Alabama's best and brightest.
My daughter was a recipient, though a zealous JW.

Words for the Day; please share
by compound complex ingreetings, word lovers:.
in my job, i work with words and wrangle them into shape, well, in a manner of speaking.
one word might be mistaken for another, a word with either a similar or identical sound.

The suit was brought by her children on the grounds that WT actively encouraged their parent to attend the convention - which is true.
However, WT slithered right out of that one.

And, the courts almost always agree with them.
I've been to that center lots of times; it is a sports arena, not suitable for elderly persons at all.

Wow, Terry!
I can see you and her in my mind.
Were you two on I-20?
Dorothy must be 90-ish; still driving? A pickup?
I like the oblique reference to RLS.

Sick bastard is too kind a description for the likes of him.
And, a supposed pastor!
The report is that she was a talented, compassionate, productive teacher.
What a loss.

I'm 90% PIMO but events in Russia made me stop and think maybe Jehovah is real and helping
by Isambard Crater ini'm at the stage where i'd love a big scandal to come along showing clearly that the j.w's are not the true religion, but sometimes i get touched inside by various thoughts or events, the russian court trial being one of them.. i mean, j.w's are understandably fixated with attending the memorial, so why didn't the court say it will resume on monday or tuesday, instead setting wednesday 12 april as the date?
part of me believes the comments from pro-j.w's that jehovah moved events so they could attend the memorial.. it seems the j.w's will not be banned, which makes my mind and heart wrestle between thinking jah's behind it, or maybe the ministry of justice is just woefully prepared compared to the superb australian royal commission team who did their homework.
it surprises me the russians seemingly haven't done any homework..
