  no doubt about, the watchtower (insert digital temperature and time display here) environment appears to be loosening...if you have more money than the corporation.

  .

  among other things, check out his personal comment rationalizing jehovah's concern over birthdays...i'm convinced.. http://www.canoe.ca/jammusic/jun1_prince-sun.html

  Email Dateline NBC

  below is the page, if you feel so inclined, to email dateline nbc and thank them for airing the public scrutiny.

  i suspect dateline needs encouragment, other than sponsorship revenue, just like anyone else and it may serve to be beneficial in the future.

  watch for 'jane and stone' half way down the page, and look for talk back.

  actually, if you scroll down further, there are several current 'letters to the editor' in response to the young jehovah's witness living in alberta, canada that required a court order to receive blood transfusions during her fight with leukemia.. any one associated with jehovahs witnesses could research the issue and submit a comment if they are so inclined.. flip

  Snowless Australia wins winter Gold!!!

  let me try to be the first to congratulate steve bradbury for skating a brilliant race and winning australia's first winter olympic gold medal!

  which is surprising because the population of australia probably wouldn't know what snow was if it slapped them up the side of the head.

  That was then, this is now...

  jw attitudes are not what they used to be in watch tower land, and theyre changing rather quickly.

  in fact, many here have stated that they expect the societies attitude to go mainstream some day.. compared to the time of my tenure as a jehovahs witness, the wtbts is already there; at least the perks are getting better, less window washing and cut-rate travel in the company of persons that guarantee a preferred profile.. to illustrate, check out the link.

  apparently, just before the imminent destruction of this old, weary, wicked system of things takes place, jehovahs witnesses (in good standing) might as well create an industry and enjoy discovering what was once considered the devils playground while they urgently wait for jehovah to spring the big a and prang all the householders that should have been preached to while jehovahs publishers were out having a ball.. im all for a good time but a little skeptical about that twin towers complex tour though.. .

  farkel, well be hearing more about a wonderful inventor named dean kamen this coming monday.

  once we've become more familiar with his extraordinary accomplishments, many should be grateful this particular individual didnt spend his youth listening to the wtbts to pursue the moronic behavior of going door to door as a jehovahs witness.. the reason i singled you out farkel is because of the current icon you use, ... his father helped start mad magazine -- kamen is ... alfred e. neuman.. * http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/99/11/22/991122opmetcalfe.xml.

  Short history of Biblical Translation article

  by Flip in

  1. jw

  for the biblical historical aficionado only, a short but concise history of bible translation.... http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/85feb/transbib.htm.

  although in the article, jehovah is mentioned during the squabble of 1885 (look for it), i found it curious that the watchtower bible & tract society and/or jehovahs witnesses is made conspicuous by the absence of any mention in spite of their self-proclaimed biblical importance.

  its good that the wtb&ts proclaims the corporation is used as jehovahs 'wallet', because theres little credibility, other than financial, with anyone else but themselves.

  liability dispensation...

  by Flip in

  2. friends

  if jehovahs organization on earth, namely the wtbts was liable for an accident, which caused persons injury, or death i.e.

  automobile, slippery sidewalk, etc.

  does jehovah's society use an at arms length insurance company to take the fall for jehovah rather than publicly implicating his corporation?.
