PP did. His definition of religion, which he said made "atheism" a religion included this : "... a body of persons adhering to aparticular set of beliefs and practices"
Hi there, I was quoting The Scotsman. I'm pretty sure he got the definition from a dictionary.
in one of my early posts, i said that there wasn't any molestation cases that i knew of in the congregations in my area.
well all that has changed.
in the last few months i have learned that a man whom i have known since i was a little kid, and who hung around my older brothers and sisters has been molesting childred for years.
No wonder he kept doing it.
Sadly, they've created a ruling and a policy that allows them to keep doing it.
now, in my japanese forum, the watchtower september 15, 2009 (pdf, 33.8mb) is downloadable.. but only a registrant can access.. http://bb2.atbb.jp/strongwings/viewtopic.php?t=471.
if you are interested in that pdf file, i will upload it only for one week.. .
possible.
You showed no gratitude.
I know. Erm. For what, exactly?
the watchtower organization is without doubt doing everything they can to keep their business afloat.
they are at a critical point in their ever so blemished present condition.
there is simply too much genuine criticism from not only those on the outside but, also from those on the inside.

The two-witness rule is still in force.
many here have abandoned the bible as "the word of god" and there are numerous reasons for said abandonment.
however what i am interested in finding out is if the bible is the word of god, then what would you expect to find?.
especially considering it’s been around in it’s printed form for 500 years.
That's quite a long time.

Following on from the JW Scottish Assembly posts - I was thinking of writing to St. Johnstone Football Club (who rent out their stadium to the JWs for the convention) if they realise exactly who they are renting to.
In particular do they want to be associated with such an organisation that (insert policies etc here) Any feedback?
Do it.

Possible, you don't own the rights to distribute the Watchtower magazine, so it's probably not a fantastic idea to throw your weight around in this regard!

This has actually got my wife's creative juices flowing. Stay tuned.

Let me just say that I have no objections to being "more like Christ" if this simply means being a good neighbor and following the Golden Rule.
Perhaps that can be common ground for us.
Kinda my point.
