Yes I think Angus'role and the Judges role here are clearly deliniated.
I guess the Judge is aiming to squeeze as much co operation from the society as possible.
Angus is aiming to highlight as many failings as possible so that they have a chance of being addressed.
Fulltimestudent Thank you for your posts, enjoying them
Can I be nosey & ask what you study, or are you a student of life generally?😀
Btw I am in London so will defo see the codex
the target is converts.. why does it seem such an outrageous aim for a congregation to recruit new converts?.
in my old congregation, the enthusiasm was there but the knocking on doors produced zero " baptisms" in my final years.. a) why so little interests?.
b) was it the internet ?.
Funny now I get the message, forcing viewpoints on other people is insulting, unloving and arrogant.

I never visit this site without finding something to really ponder . Life lessons I suppose. There is no doubt in my mind (provided you haven't lost family etc) that coming out safe & sound the other side of WTBTS makes for a kinder, more well rounded individual.
an older man and wife - ray and mary - got chatting to me today.
they were tourists admiring local wildlife.
i gave them a few tips on where to go to see some interesting things and it wasn't long before they were telling me about how awful the world is "nowadays" and paradise yadda yadda.

These top lawyers/judges/police services they are not silly. They talk off the record with each other & share data figures when it comes to crimes of this severity.
When an institution is rotten from the top it's rotten all the way down.
anyone in the usa following this morning's shooting "on-air" live tv will know what i'm talking about.
bryce williams (not real name, but on-air name) shot and killed 2 people on live television this morning in roanoke, va. he was wearing a go-pro camera, and uploaded his first-person video onto his social media accounts.
i've seen his twitter feed (before it was taken down), and not very far down he mentions being raised a jw.
They may not be #1 of all countries but when you rely on failed-states / war-zones and crime infested weakly-governed countries to push you down slightly I think it's a sad indictment.
Shouldn't the US be compared with "1st world" industrialized countries? When it is, it is an outlier when it comes to gun violence and deaths.
Yes Simon The president said the USA is the only leading country with this kind of system/problem I think that was the point he was making too

It's all over the UK too. Even The Times website has the live video (albeit with a large warning splashed across the front).
Cappytan There was a BBC interview with the President last year they are re showing after this incident. He explains gun control is the one area he feels he should have done more to promote and that he feels he's been stymied at every turn by the law & the lobbyists.
i was straddling the fence on that one, just in case they were right.
i don't recall.
telling anyone this is your last chance.

I knew you were a girl, I pictured you as a wise native American grandmother, an artisan with long grey plaits.
I am English by the way but I'm mad about American history.
I can't remember what it was you said (fairly recently )that gave the game away because I too thought you were a guy at first !
