I always followed my Dad's example. He would greet ones who were DF'd at the hall our outside of the hall. He always asked how they were doing and encouraged them.

Opray Winfreys handling of sexual child abuse~an example for Governing Body
by purplesofa inthe governing body should be hanging their heads in shame watching how the events unfolded in south africa at oprah winfrey's school.
her fearless way in meeting the problems head on, not covering up, calling in expert help, investigating, apologizing, getting all adults away from the campass so the girls could talk openly about what happened.
those girls came first.

Sorry if it seemed I was trying to attack anyone who loves Oprah. It just seems people often give her too much credit. She does good, but I think half of it is only to keep up with her PR. Not that I can blame her, if helping people made me billions of dollars I would do it too. Again though I think her money would have better spent helping Kids here, sigh perhaps I am a selfish American prick though. OK I am a selfish prick.

There is a nice PDF type book called, "Mind Hacks" and one of the sections explains this. It also has another test you can do asking people different questions with one completely unrelated question to get a very common answer. I'll try to copy and paste it when i get a chance.

I agree with Qcmbr. I also think if Oprah could do less and get away with it she would. Screw Oprah! How about helping out children in your own country?

Jehovah's Witnesses Are An Illogical People & They Should Be Embarrassed!
by minimus inquestion a witness in a very logical manner about their view of blood transfusions and blood fractions and see what you'll get.. ask a witness where in the bible it states that you can't talk to a disfellowshipped family member unless he or she lived in your home.. ask a witness why they need 2 witnesses to establish that a child has been molested but they don't need 2 witnesses to establish that a spouse has been unfaithful and that the accuser may now be free to "scripturally" remarry.. have a jehovah's witness prove to you that filling out a service report is necessary for a christian to have god's approval.. can you think of other proofs that the witness religion is totally illogical??

I recently asked this question to my Mom,
From my Mom- I am not going to argue over words and interpretations.....if they are wrong....they will be corrected.....until then I will listen to the ones I believe Jehovah and Jesus are using today.
My repsonse-
Wow, how do you preach to people and sleep at night using this logic? I know I am being a bit dramatic, but how can you ask someone to go over their faith with a fine tooth comb and JUDGE IT FOR IT'S IMPERFECTIONS, then expect someone to ASSUME GOD WILL FIX YOUR RELIGION. That is hypocrisy in it's simplest form. YOUR CLEARLY GOING AGAINST JESUS GOLDEN RULE. This is the exact reasoning religions that you claim are false teach. You know early Christians used the same logic you did. Paul said people were listening to "super fine" apostles. These men were "sent by Jesus and Jehovah". That didn't mean it was OK to listen to them. Again you offer no biblical proof that if you see someone in a position of "power" you should follow them.

Questions From Readers: Hunting/Fishing
by inkling in.
i guess this means you can maim and kill animals all you want, just so long as you don't enjoy it too much.. sorta like being a isrealite warrior who makes a living killing people but yet is commanded to "hate violence".

No offense but why is your therapist trying to get you to write a book which will be published? I would be questioning your therapist intents.

JW singer in seattle
by JWdaughter inhttp://www.seattleweekly.com/2007-11-07/music/the-teenage-jehovah-s-witness-and-his-tribute-to-the-man-in-black.php
so, there is this teenage boy, named vinny miranda, in seattle, who is a crazy for johnny cash, country/latino singer.
this article about him is surprisingly frank in ways that i am surprised to see a jw admit.

That's cool but the comments on it are a little dumb. Must we always attack every article with anti JW stuff? Jeez the article is painting the singer and not the JW's in good light. Sometimes I think we need to chill out.
