just curious.
in my opinion it is the most importantr thing ex jws should be supporting right now.
the case is at a crucial point.
This poster hasn't solicited funds. It is an ex-JW - blood transfusion case. Can we discuss it without TRYING to get it banned?
I, for one, would like to know what's new in the case, and as long as nobody asks for money, there is no reason why we can't discuss it.
BTW, the Australia case on child protection is more important than this, IMO.
this is a preliminary summary only.
i hope to obtain more details later.. .
all five cases are still within the criminal justice system.
I still don't get why there wouldn't be a transcript. Isn't there ALWAYS a transcript in all court sessions?
No.
So the next day, or week, or month, they have to just REMEMBER what happened?

Wow, extremism from both sides in a JWN political thread? Who'd have predicted that?
i think it's iran.. they're straight up crazy wackos whos main goal is to create caliphate, world under one islamic law.
they actually believe they can accomplish this by causing great tribulation themselves with nuclear attack.. according to their belief, when theres great tribulation in the world, allah will come down and destroy non-muslims and will bring paradise.
so if they blow up nuke, it will speed up the process.
Right now it looks to me like the king of the north is the Green Bay Packers.
They've been giving the mags away free for almost 20 years.
Feed a troll once, shame on him. Feed a troll twice, shame on you.
Define apostate however you like. If it means someone that leaves a religion - the most common use of the term - then yes, apostates can return to the Borg and get reindoctrinated. If it means someone that leaves the Watchtower cult, reads Crisis of Conscience and Combating Cult Mind Control and understands their implications, and then actively opposes the Borg, then the chances of returning to the cult become statistically high to the point that it can be treated as practically impossible.
last week the elder giving the public talk mentioned that in.
the usa we have 9.1% unemployment but under god's kingdom.
is a new house.
There will be a 0% unemployment rate because they won't keep track of or pay those without work. They'll just send a couple "shepherds" up to you and they will tell you: "get to work!"
Everyone will work and it will ALL be free (aka slave) labor for the Borg.
Paradise? Not really.
revelation 7:9nwt - after these things i saw, and, look!
a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of allnations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands.. every year, as an adolescent witness, i would eagerly await the arrival of the annual "watchtower world report" issue to come out.
it had always bugged me that we were not in all the lands even though purporting to be the one and only "great crowd" decribed in the verse above.
Cognitive dissonance can be useful if you learn to recognize it in yourself whenever it occurs. If you understand the concept of cognitive dissonance then you can avoid (or at least minimize) the irrational justifications that humans usually employ to reduce it.
I second the recommendation of "Mistakes Were Made (but not by me)" and would add "Influence: the Psychology of Persuasion" by Robert Cialdini and "When Prophecy Fails" by Leon Festinger to the reading list.
that's right.

I have no clue how to do it through a phone but over the Internet on computer it is fairly easy. 4shared is free on the internet - you can pay for "instant" access but the "free" version is usually just a 45 second wait.
One of these days I'll get it all up on to iTunes. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Anyone with a smartphone know how to help DarioKehl?
that's right.
