Who knows the law? Shouldn't it be against the law to demand that insurance money is signed away as described above? No that I've first.-hand information about this happening, but if it's true, it should leave the WTS in a legally weak position.

29CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS ONE?
by stillAwitness inkingdom ministry for october under: how can we help?
..."when donations are earmarked specifically for a certain disasters, it is necessary in some countries to use such funds only for the purpose specified by the donor and within a certain period of time, whether the needs of out brothers have been cared for locally or not.
(is this true and if so, isn't that the whole point of donating to natural disaster victims?

Hi Bryan, and friends:
what would be fair contribution for a CD? I smelled a little rat when I got a some WT Audio CDs; I asked for a fair "contirbution" (that's being fair, I think), the guy "suggested" about USD 5 for each; now, that isn't much, but considering the WT spends next to nothing on labour and distribution, I still thought it was high. What ya think people?

Elementary, my dear friend.
Everyone knows that was 1919, the magic year. ;)
You're fodder for Armageddon if you don't believe that.

I stumbled on this document: http://www.swissbankclaims.com/PDFs_Eng/WatchTowerBible.pdf again this weekend and thought to search that it's been discussed on JWD. Certainly, this matter didn't generate much discussion, but I wonder why? The WT applies for funds in compensation for Holocaust evils, that should be some news, especially as the first post raises some interesting views.
Comments?

Is it possible that a child molester is NOT a pedophile?
by sir82 ini realize many here have (unfortunately) much more experience with this sort of thing than i do.
any personal insight, or direction to research material, would be appreciated.. there was a letter to all boes about 8-10 years ago, saying that if an appointed elder had any incidents of child abuse in his history, he had to step forward & admit such, so that his status as an elder could be reviewed.
none of the elders in this congregation said anything.. it was later (maybe 5 years ago) discovered that one of the elders had sexually abused his daughters some time in the 80's, before his appointment.

TELL THE ELDERS SHE'S HAD AN ABORTION
by steve2 inthis may have discussed on a previous thread.
a few years ago, a watchtower article discussed the issue of jws who are employed in the health care domain and who, during the course of their legitimate employment duties, have access to private and potentially incriminating information on other jws.
i think the article used as an example confidential information on an unmarried witness's file that documents she has had an abortion.

One wonders which of the idiotic drones in the Watchtower writing department wrote all that nonsense, and the criminally-minded GB members that signed off on it. Morons.

The 1914 Doctrine and The Threat of the Egibi Business Tablets
by VM44 incould the watchtower and the jehovah's witnesses survive the discarding of their 1914 doctrine?
the doctrine that in 1914 the end of the gentile times took place, jesus took up rule in heaven.
for some reason the jws think the outbreak of world war i in 1914 is proof their prophetic calculations were correct.

Jeffro, [y]our insults are of little consequence. You lose this discussion because of your ignorance and your predujice which blind you to past and present scholarship. As I have said before you need to travel and read more and go to Brisbane and use the big libraries there so that you will learn something.

Who else thinks scholar's a guy with way too much time on his hands who gets a kick form messing with people on this board?? It's just almost impossibl eot take you serious, non-scholar; but there's lots danger in that. Sigh. .
