  Congratulate them.

  If they have questions see if you can come up with honest answers that don't amount to special pleading, appeals to authority or include the word 'mystery'. Good luck with that.

  as her marriage crumbles, a judge must decide a case involving a teenage boy who is refusing a blood transfusion on religious principle.. i saw the trailer for this a long time ago and its subject matter immediately got me interested.

  I have seen the movie in the cinema. It is excellent. Nuanced and thoughtful narrative beautifully told.

  Obviously it didn't have enough car chases, explosions and CGI for Jimmy. How the actual fuck he saw pedophilia in the judges' concern for the young man is beyond understanding.

  Watch the movie. You won't regret it.

  My wife and I have just watched both episodes. Brilliant documentary.

  1,300 cases filed against the Watchtower in NY state so far this year - and it's only February.

  How Many Here Remember Hearing Details from the Platform on Why a Person was Reproved or DF'd ???

  i just had this flashback when commenting on another thread about how they used to announce reproof or dfing from the platform.

  at least in our congregation, it was a dramatic event (this is what i can remember from back in the mid-late 60's or early 70's when i was a kid).. at the end of the service meeting, just before singing the final song, the brother would announce, "we have a letter that must be read.

  the "congregation servant" (my grandfather or later my father) would then slowly walk from the back of the kh to the platform.

  I remember an elder's son who was married with children. He faithfully attended every meeting for 6 months, got reinstated and was never seen at the kingdom hall again.

  I doubt if the elder cared now that he had his grandchildren back.

  Has the client-penitent privilege clause been tested in SCOTUS or only at state supreme court level?
