A Chilliwack, B.C., family is furious with the RCMP for failing to return their 15-year-old daughter after police found the runaway teen at a downtown Vancouver hotel.
Jeff Wier and Candis McCarville-Wier are the legal guardians for Cassidy McCarville; Candis is also her biological mother. The teen became a Jehovah’s Witness two years ago but her parents are not followers, and that has been a point of strife between Cassidy and her parents.
Candis says her daughter has taken the religion too far — preaching door to door instead of doing her school work. When she tried to ground Cassidy on Tuesday night, preventing her from going to a Jehovah’s Witness meeting, the teen ran away from home.
Police were called and found Cassidy at the Vancouver hotel early Wednesday morning with friends from church.
“Cassidy told them she just wasn’t happy — ‘cause all 15-year-olds who are grounded are happy — and the cops left her with this woman, and my daughter is still not home,” said a visibly upset Candis.
The RCMP said they had no authority to seize the 15-year-old and return her to her parents because she was not in any danger and had not committed any crime.
'We have no anger towards Jehovah’s Witnesses themselves, but Cassidy's involvement with them has been detrimental to her.' - Jeff Wier
"I think probably the police are looking at this and saying it's futile," said family law expert Tracey Jackson. "'I can go find your child, bring the child home, and the child will just run away again. And I'm not going to do that 100 times — I have other things to do.'"
On Thursday night, Cassidy texted her parents, saying she had hopped a bus to the Okanagan and is now staying with a cousin.
In a telephone conversation with CBC News, Cassidy said she didn't run away — she was forced by her parents to choose between living under their roof and her Jehovah's Witness activities.
Jehovah's Witnesses are not supposed to associate with non-witnesses, but an elder told CBC News that they would never ask a child to leave their parents.
The family says they just want their daughter to come home, and get counselling.
“We have no anger towards Jehovah’s Witnesses themselves, but Cassidy's involvement with them has been detrimental to her,” Jeff said.

Resurrection without a soul that survives death.
by Pronger1 inone thing (among many) that always bothered me about jw teachings is what happens to the soul when we die.
sure god could be capable of creating a body and implanting it with all of our life experiences an memories.
but how would not be a just a clone instead of being actually us?

Here is another thought though about the copy thing......
What about a person who has actually died but then they get revived. Is the revival actually that person or just something else inside a body that already had memories and such?
In that sense the resurrection can make sense, if the body is reconstructed, memories, etc, then turned back on again. WHat is the difference if it happens minutes later or years later?
Then you wonder, what actually makes you? Are you a biological robot or something more?

The true NATURE of God, as seen by the writers of the EDEN story--.
by prologos inon the "picture--" thread, bloody hotdog made an interesting observation on bloody sacrifices that please god.
: can you picure it?.
cain, being an astute observer, noted that god approved the bloody sacrifice given by abel, so he upped the ante' and sacrificed his brother under the guise of anger, jealousy, striving for monopoly.. did god see it coming?.

I am certain there is more to the Cain/Abel story than meets the eye.
A few observations, Abel was a shepherd/cowman and Cain was a farmer.
Down to this day, as shown in the movie, "Oklahoma", it takes much effort for the farmer and the cowman to be friends.
God said he would put emnity between the seeds, so from the start of man down to this day, they had been at eachothers throats.
On a serious side though, in the scriptures they have illustrations of those who plant the seeds now allowing the masters servants (shepherds) to harvest them. The illustration Jesus gave about the slave workers and keeping the one who inherits from taking his possessions.
Then it's also interesting that it speaks of Jesus having been killed before the founding of the world. Scriptures also speak about the return of the "son of man". What's interesting is that the name "Adam" and "Man" are the exact same word in hebrew. Abel was the son of Adam, Abel was the first one killed unjustly, so is it coincidence or is there a connection there.

When A Fellow Apostate Goes Insane, What Can We Do To Help?
by RottenRiley ini don't know how to handle the situation with a fellow apostate who has lost their mind due to this evil cult.
this guy is texting many of the elders under alias of six different cell-phones no less than twenty times a day.. .
we had to change the locks at the kingdom hall because he was still stalking and prowling around the hall after advertsing he had left the kingdom hall and we were all no less than mind-dead zombies sucking out of the life of thinking individuals.

Here is a university article on HOW they are doing it, so is it still BS now? Btw those are all reviews on amazon, so it's either legit or there is a mob mentality making fake reviews for it. But the university paper backs it up..
http://universe.byu.edu/2013/09/24/sugar-free-haribo-gummy-bears-have-a-gas-tly-effect1/
"
Rather than being made with sugar, the gummy bears are made with Lycasin, a hydrogenated glucose and sugar replacement.
Lycasin is a maltitol syrup with properties of taste and sweetness ideal for the preparation of sugar-free syrups, lozenges or jellies, according to manufacturer Roquette.com.
Little known to most gummy bear connoisseurs, however, the side effects of Lycasin are gas, bloating and diarrhea. In some cases the sugar-free gummy bears act as a strong laxative and leave many consumers quite uncomfortable, rushing to long trips in the bathroom.
