Church Extends Authority to Absolve Sin of Abortion for Papal Visit
by leavingwt inchurch extends authority to absolve sin of abortion for papal visit.
the vatican has given authority to priests who are in madrid during the popes visit there to give absolution to women who confess to having had an abortion - and has empowered priests to lift excommunications for such women.. typically, only certain priests have the power to grant absolution for the sin of abortion and to lift excommunications that have resulted from terminated pregnancies, according to a vatican spokesman.. .
all the priests that are administering the sacrament of confession during world youth day have the general authority to give absolution from the penalty of excommunication for abortion if someone comes to confession... if someone has this need, vatican spokesman rev.

The catholic church had no problems with ex communicating women who had abortions but never has a priest who molested girls and boys suffered the same fate. No thank you, this is not the religion for me.

I'm new here..... Studying with the Witnesses
by PenelopePaige inhi- i just wanted to say that i have been checking the website out for a few weeks and have read some horror stories and some sad ones.
but i have been studying with witnessess for about six months and can't help but feel that they're completely sincere and maybe even, the true religion.
i love the watchtower and awake and to me, none of that seems crazy.

Penelope, I was raised southern baptist/pentcostal and in nondenominational churches.In all my years of instruction I was taught not to believe in an organiztion but to put all my trust in God and his holy word. I knew nothing about the Jehovah witnesses religion. When I accepted an invitation to study, I simply assumed it was similar to all protestant churches. Boy, was I wrong! Their teahing materials are slanted to justify the organiztions beliefs. I tried to give them non biased material on subjects we were studying which they could not even look at because it is apostate material. In other words they are the true religion and everyone else is false.
Curiosty led me to research The Jehovah Witnesses. 101 Strange Beliefs and Pratices of the Jehovahs Witnesses, Freeminds and Jehovahs-Witness.net and many others. Are valueable tools of information about this religion. They have kept me safe and I use the information to pass along to others. Despite their claims to be the true religion and fastest growing , few people know about them. I encourge you to to hear everyone out and to research every wesite of exJehovah witnesses.

i need to know if jehovahs witnesses are actually told to ....
by looloo incompletly ignore disfellowshipped children and never speak at all to them , also what about the children of the disfellowshipped children that are growing up unaware of the "truth " ?
im thinking of writing to my inlaws who have never bothered with our child for two and a half years to tell them to just walk on by if they see us as it would confuse her if they saw us and acted as though nothing has happened .
then they will be good jws and obediant to the watchtower and not blame us for not letting them see her which is what they lie and tell people !.

When an outsider sees this type of behavior what impact do you think its having on them. Do you think they would want to belong to a religion they teaches shunning of a family member? Absolutely not! I wonder if the leadership has discussed the negative impact versus the requitment for new members with this policy.Or is the policy of shunnung kept secret until you join the organization.

My uncle who is an Elder has been warned not to ''talk or meet grandson''.
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy cousin( who was disfellowshipped many years ago) told me that he cannot speak to or come over to his grandfather's any longer.. he would stop by every month or so just to see his grandfather and grandmother.
they are both in their 80's and not in the best of health.. my uncle who is still serving as an elder would talk to his grandson only when his grandson would visit his house.
well,someone found out and snitched on my uncle.

IS THE UK A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY NOW ?
by Hairyhegoat inwell here we have kids and old age pensioners living below the poverty line, and the prime minister promises 1.4 billion to overseas aid for jabs... the uk is a dumping ground for immigrants, and they all get houses and cars payed for by the tax payer.
i am not racisit but when my country is bankrupt then we need to close the borders and look after our own.
the freeloader imigrants need to find a new place to squat as the uk has run out of money, schools , hospitals, and most of all jobs.

HHG I am glad you posted. We are experiencing the worst economic crisis since the 1930's. The government is cutting services to the disabled, ederly and poor. We have a huge immigrant problem that both politcal parties will not address. When citizens stand up against it they are labled racist. The immigrants qualify for free schooling and housing assistance while the average American and veteran cannot get nothing. Our borders need to be closed. And this country needs to focus on its citizens and how to create jobs for them. I do believe in giving but let us first give to our own Through all this, America still gives out billions of dollars to foreign countries. So you see, America is also becoming a third world country.

Do You Think It Is Wrong To Stereotype?
by minimus ini know we are supposed to be politically correct but i don't always feel that this is warranted.. i do think that certain things might be generally true and could be viewed as stereotyping.
for example, if i see a young person driving a car very slowly, i might think that they are texting and driving (or else are asian).
now that might not have sounded proper, but i do think it's generally true, from my experience driving in the city.. if i see a "butchy" looking woman, i generally assume the woman is gay.
