No need for the update in monotonic Greek, Blue Grass. It is the final revized version of Crisis, plus in Hellenic language when we are dealing with religious books we stick to the polytonic version of Greek. It has to do with grammatic and many other aspects of the wealth that Hellenic language has...

question for Leolaia - when were the oral traditions that comprise the pentateuch committed to written form
by quietlyleaving ini'm quite interested in this subject at the moment.
i was reading that in some cultures when the stories, myths and traditions began to be written down the stories etc underwent transformations as they were now accessible for critique and for moral judgements to be added.. i'd like to hear your thoughts leo and anyone else who has anything to share/discuss.

There are many traditions that came out from Mesopotamia and adopted by the Israelites, since the founder of the Jewish Nation is from that region.
We have a lot of commons between the first 5 Books in the Bible, starting from the Creation, the Gilgamesh Myth-Noahs flood, along with many other common things they have...

Swansea paedophile in 17-year barrage of child abuse
by behemot inswansea paedophile in 17-year barrage of child abusesunday, march 21, 2010, 12:00a pensioner branded a "filthy paedophile" after being convicted of a barrage of sustained child abuse, which started over 43 years ago, has been jailed for 19 years.. gordon brian redmond was convicted at lewes crown court of 18 indecent assaults against children including six charges of rape and one charge of actual bodily harm.. the 72-year-old had already pleaded guilty to two charges of indecent assault against children.. the sexual offences took place while redmond, now of excelsior house, princess way, swansea, was living in brighton from 1967 to 1984. seventeen of the charges were sample counts examples of ongoing behaviour and offences.. the jury was unable to reach a verdict on a seventh charge of rape, and judge michael lawson qc ordered the charge to lie on file.. sentencing redmond, judge lawson said no sentence could truly reflect his actions.. "there is no mathematical calculation i can do that can match the harm that you have done with a certain number of years in custody," he said.. "nor can i undo the damage that has been done or bring peace and comfort to those who have suffered as a result of your selfish behaviour.".
redmond's sentence had to be determined according to the guidelines applicable at the time of the offences guidelines that judge lawson said reflected "an outdated view of serious offences".. redmond became a strict jehovah's witness in the 1970s and moved to a farm in pontyberem in 1984.. the offence of actual bodily harm took place in november 2006.. judge lawson paid tribute to the prosecution witnesses for their courage throughout the trial, particularly redmond's first victim.. "she has displayed a generosity of spirit throughout this trial that you do not deserve and which you never showed to your victims," he said.. prior to sentencing, defence barrister bernard richmond qc said his client was already enduring terrible punishment for his crimes.. "this rather proud, arrogant, cocky, difficult, bolshy, very full of himself, scary man, who everyone was supposed to look up to and admire, now stands in the dock as someone of very little money, no future, and with a reputation as a filthy paedophile," he said.. "he has been shunned by the jehovah's witnesses.
his wife, christine, has been forced to choose between her faith and her husband, and has chosen her faith.".

Atheist: What words of comfort do you give when you find out someone is terminally ill?

Yeah INVISIBLE presence of Jesus that only Russell did saw and a banch of psevdoamerican Christian followers of his...
A really laugh with their explanation of Parousia- Presence....I mean in the Hellenic language there is only ONE meaning for Parousia, but WT did manage to twist the Bible once more...
Just the fact that they claim an INVISIBLE presence- PAROUSIA it is more than enough to show that they don't have a clue of Greek language and translation

Nobody knows whats going behind the walls of the GB and those at the top level of the WT society. I really don't know what to believe about this cult anymore, but there are some facts that we cannot ignore regarding WT's involvement with occult:
1. Russell the founder was involved in numerology, pyramid worship, occult.
2. Russell was ready to publish a book Angels and Women, a story told by a Demon regarding the Flood. This Demon told the story to a medium
3. Booze Jo he continued and publish the Book Angels and Women, after Russell's death and suggest it to be given as a Christmas gift!!!
4. In Booze Jo's rullership we have some strange indications that he was involved in spiritism, like an advertise in Golden Age amgazine of widja board.
5. Woodworth was the major factor of not using blood and he was also involved with Russell in Occult. This I believe is the most evil and Satanic aspect of the WT. So many wasted lifes in the altar of blood.
6. Subliminal images in WT literature after 1982
So there are many bits and pieces of WT's history that shows WT involvement in Occult. I don't know if they are realy to S.R.A but again I cannot ignore all the facts above
