Interesting comment, Nosferatu.
I'd always remember that the first mention I heard of the Apostate Ray Franz was in a kingdom hall, and from a comment by an elder at that. Of course, I went to look for the banned book ("... literally a work of the devil himself" elder man said), and that was on the iNet. In retrospect, I'vee seriously wondered if he did do it on purpose. What better prompt to go look for something other than screaming "... don't look, it's bad"?!

robert king has a new anti-org book out, so it looks like he is the new seer to the world from what he says.
isn't this the "you know" that used to plague the boards?
here we go with the watchtower is right but all the leaders are wrong, so i reluctantly have to write this book so all will know that i am a prophet!
Well, so he's disfellowshipped? Hmn.
Some parts of that document is damning though... the UN part was pretty good...

Quotes,
this will cost you a lot money. I don't doubt that the Society hopes to frustrate you; it's good you live in Canada. And we don't need to lose focus on what would be good support; there're quite many that'll be happy to contribute to a fund; it is, afterall, our battle, you have the mantle.
Let us know.

well they certainly didn't waste any time using this disaster to their own twisted advantage...they stuck this on their home page with a quickness.

in god's new world, people will not have to fear having their home or crops wiped out by freakish storms.
So God's able to make these things happen. The last item didn't happen in the new world, it happened right here, yes? Sothe merciful God, abundant in loving kindness watched as frail old people and young children got ravaged from a storm that started in God's ocean?? I don't believe it!

on a per capita ratio jws ethos for claiming off the state is higher than any other religion.
does anyone have the answer?
i remember in the late 80s the borg came out with an article "uses and abuses of the welfare system".
she was a guest by remote from las vegas, on larry king last night.
she was so emotional, and crying that she could hardly speak.
but, she said some powerful things.
Nathan, but what's criminal behaviour in these circumstances?`I'm hoping you're referring to those with guns, shooting at those offering to help. "Stealing" and "looting" become very flexible in these circumstances; we're talking of people at the edge; we may never know how much of the "looting" was done in desperation, or, the possibility of barter at the back of the minds of the takers; is it wrong to take food and clothing that would otherwise become ruined in the circumstances we've had in New Orleans? Next time the government prepares for disasters, they should also run scenarios with the decline of morality in extenuatingly desperate circumstances, it's human nature. People stealing cars so they can get out, people stealing food and water to feed themselves and their neighbours, would we all wrap them in that blanket of criminality?
But I digress.
Celine 's probably not acting; her inarticulateness alone is perhaps a clear sign of someone speaking from the heart. And she's put her money where her voice is. She's a singer and 's got a voice to speak for the downtrodden too. Great heart; she's shown it; great show, evn, if that's what it is.

what is the government's plan here?
is this a convenient way to remove several thousand undesirables from the welfare rolls?
i watch what is going on at the superdome and the convention center, and it looks like some backwater african nation you see on sunday morning on a feed the children special.
Which backwater African country did you have in mind??
No one gives a rat's ass about richest country on earth, the irony being that poor countries treat their citizens with more feeling, urgency and humanity than I've seen this past week. Nonsense, see how you treat the poor amongst you?! Just face up to the relief, and stop drawing stupid analogies with backwater African countries you've probably never seen.

city questions circumcision ritual after baby dies
edward reed
mayor michael r. bloomberg met with orthodox leaders and health officials at city hall on aug. 11 to discuss a practice that some rabbis consider integral to god's covenant with the jews requiring circumcision.
The practice can easily be showed to be a violation even of Jewish law. See:

when the wt gets anything this right, it will be a happy day for the governing body.
but then again, the national geographic has the built in advantage of having an editorial content that focuses on reality.
