i certainly am , providing their are strong arguments that the perpretrator of the crime is guilty beyond any reasonable doubt of the crime he/she is charged with .. i am not religous ,however i do agree with a life for a life principle ,especially if it involves multiple victims.

somebody killing x amount of people, proven of course , have no right to live.

of course with murders of one victim their can be many scenarios which the courts of law can adjudicate for whatever an outcome.

why should society have to pay 100s of thousands and even into the millions of $ to keep some arsholes in prison for life?

Clean phone screen

by Jaime l de Aragon in

have the phone screen dull, dirty, worn with scratches?

no problem, use some toothpaste and rub with a cloth and let her new.

it also serves to improve the headlights of the vehicle,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyvucplsrfa.

Don't use toothpaste to clean any glass surface................Who will pay to replace the screen for you?

How often did you entertain the "Traveling Overseers", and did you regret it afterwards?

by ÁrbolesdeArabia in

i found taking the traveling overseers out for a meal, to be a waste of time.

our literature regulary spoke of the upbuilding talk the local congregations received by entertaining our brothers.

now some of the modern cos look at their telecommunication devices, talk of things not related to our ministry or phone it in.

My family did once, The CO was an East German bro and had some realy interesting stories to tell about life in EG, from what I remember Guntha was a great guy, seemed to have a great way with the young ones.

Later on during the 80s I was living with an Aunt & Uncle (elder) in Auckland, and once they had a CO for lunch after the sunday meeting, the CO was a maori, I had never realised before how racist my family was, my family normally got on with most plp (I thought) now I saw how uncomfortable they were having a maori in their house, the CO tried really hard to befriend them, shit it was embarrassing.

When You Were A JW Were You Disturbed By "Apostate" Literature or "Apostates" At Conventions?

i was always curious about what they had to say.

(i guess i was an apostate in the making)..

I don't ever recall having seen or heard any apostates protesting or the literature at a DC or CA, mind you I didn;t go to any all since the very early 90s & that was in New Zealand & I don't think apostates were organised back then. I do remember see pics in Time Mag portraying the protests in NY, I thought it very odd, but was curious.
