  Hmm, on my screen the photos show, then they don't. Not sure why. I'll try to figure this out and post later today.

  The Carrizo Plain National Monument is in San Luis Obispo County, California, west of Bakersfield. The San Andreas Fault, a well known earthquake fault, runs through it and has contributed to it's formation.

  There is a soda lake in the middle of it, which is surrounded by hills that in a good year will be covered with wildflowers. Last year was a very good year, and I went there 3 times in the Spring.

  What I Remember From The Past...

  folks: regarding all the recent changes about dis-fellowshipping and time for re-instatement.

  (and, even speaking to persons who are dis-fellowshpped.

  ) back in 1972, a new book was released at the summer district convention, that replaced the yellow-colored "lamp": book.

  Speaking to DF'd people in some minor way has been something the Organization has gone back and forth on a few times.

  Titch quoted a 1974 Watchtower ...

  ... if you happened to see a d-fed person who had some car problems, while they were driving to the local K.H., you shouldn't hesitate to stop and help them.

  I remember a Circuit Overseer asking that exact question in one of his talks, but his answer was different. What did he say? 'Someone else will be along to help that person.'

  I don't remember the year but it was well after 1974, so they had hardened again on talking to or helping a DF'd person - it could have been related to the issues with Ray Franz.

  few norwegian religious communities need to worry after the jehovah's witnesses verdict, according to legal expert vibeke blaker strand.

  he has pointed out that it is particularly serious to deprive a religious community of its registration.

  Watchtower will lose about $1.5 million per year if it lets the Norwegian verdict stand without appealing to the ECHR. However that amount of money is a drop in the bucket for Watchtower. They have much more to lose if they go to the ECHR and fail to win.

  They would have to be crazy to appeal - but then we are talking about Watchtower leaders!

  For all JW's: Stop calling others "apostates."

  if you don't want to be thrown into gehenna, read what your own faithful evil slave & christ say:.

  When JWs call someone an apostate it's mainly just name calling. The great majority of JWs couldn't begin to show you what a genuine apostate is from the Bible itself.

  Governing Body Culpability

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower

  i've seen people say something along the lines that the authorities would like to/have been trying to subpoena (members of) the gb (in csa cases).

  my question is: why don't they?

  if the gb are issuing orders to cover up evidence in csa cases, and otherwise interfere in justice being served in those cases, then they are accessories before (and after) the fact, and theoretically can be arrested and charged as such.

  ...the USA is still very religious.

  Yes it is, and WAY too much is allowed under the heading of "Freedom of Religion."
