  1. jw
  2. friends

  moral reform of the organization is nearly impossible because of the stubborn,.

  and cold hearted men who wield power.

  pleading, protesting, and threatening have.

  i ran across this shocking article and thought it might be of interest:.

  http://www.stetson.edu/~psteeves/relnews/0108a.html.

  with extreme cynicism and brutality an ex-convict made short work of a female sectarian from the "jehovah's witnesses" religious society.

  Sick bastard; I hope they take him out back and blow his frigging head off! Why the hell do they let murderers out of prison???

  Even worse, why did this sister invite him in to her home? Even the Society doesn't tell you it's okay for a sister to invite a male over to study the bible ALONE (after all, she might have sex with him) and always says there should be at least two people there (one should be a male for sure).

  While no one deserves this to happen to them, this sister invited a confessed murderer in to her home ALONE.......she took a huge gamble and lost.

  What a horrible tragedy.

  WHAT IS DEJA VU??

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  i think everyone has had an experience with deja vu; i know i have and it's really freaky when it happens.

  i'll be standing there talking to someone and that feeling comes over me that i've done this before; i've had the exact same conversation with this person and i can even predict what they're going to say.. with someone i know, that's one thing; having this experience with someone i've never met before is really bizarre.. i've heard all kinds of theorys as to what deja vu is: a "delay" in the brain, reincarnation, someone in the future has changed the past and we sometimes 'repeat' things, it's all in your head, it's satan.......... i'd be interested to hear what sort of experiences you've had with deja vu and what you think it is........ .

  Life on other planets?

  by freedom96 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as jw's, we were taught that there is no way that there is life anywhere but here on earth.. i personally never bought into that completely.

  there are billions and billions of solar systems out there.

  i do believe that absolutely there is life on other planets.

  I believe there is life on other planets............the GB's theory that we are the ONLY created world, is about as outdated as the Catholic Church's idea that the earth was the center of the universe during the Dark Ages.

  Here's an interesting link about space travel and time travel.....

  Do You Believe In God Or Not?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you've been associated with the witnesses, believing in god was a necessity.

  do you still feel that god exists?

  if you believe in god, do you feel that he cares about you?

  "......the brother quit pioneering and went on to get a "doctorate and several other degrees......"

  Oh pu-lease! Anyone who gets a PhD "and several other degrees" and takes a job at McPukes because he can't get a job elsewhere, is, in my opinion, either full of shit, or just plain dense. A PhD WILL land you a good job, don't let anyone tell you anything differently.......................McDonalds............gimme a break!

  Queen finally does something useful

  by Angharad in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the uk there has been a big trial going on in which the former butler to diana princess of wales was charged with stealing some of her possessions after her death.

  he has pleaded not guilty from the start.

  this has been going on for close to 2 years, the case dramatically collapsed this morning when the queen finally decided to get off the royal butt and intervene saying that she knew he was holding some of diana's possessions.
