    The doctrine of the Tri-Part man.

    2. beliefs

    recently there have been discussions about the immortal soul, v's the wts beliefs, so i thought i'd present a little heard of (in jw circles) doctrine of the soul that seeks to explain some passages of scripture that are usually avoided.. first of all, leo posted some fascination information, which gives some background on the bible's general teaching on the soul:.

    http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/80742/1319806/post.ashx#1319806.

    the doctrine itself surrounds two texts in particular, which i quote from the nwt:.

    2. Narkissos

    TimB,

    Don't you think that if this bill passes, it would help to make public the 'hidden' sex offenders within the JW community? A sex offender usually does NOT LIMIT their abusive behavior to ONE place ie within the JW community only. Doesn't it make sense that if a JW who gets caught 'outside' of the JW community may be able to move to another place/state where he did not have a record and join another JW community only to re-offend again. Without being listed in a national data base, the new area may not have the needed information to protect his future potential victims?

    Sorry, I still disagree with you.

    The consequences of committing a sex abuse crime should be thought of BEFORE someone offends in the first place. This is a serious crime. It is not the same as stealing a cookie out of the cookie jar.

    I have not been posting to this forum in quite some time. Since I was a regular poster, another person has joined the forum who uses the name 'new light' or 'newlight'. This is not me. We are 2 different people. I just thought it best to make this point clear to everyone here.

    TimB: "I don't think we should permanantly mark people who have served their sentence."


    1988: Mary Foley and Carrie Coonrod are raped and killed by recently released repeat rapists David Anthony Thomas and Thomas Schwartz.

    1999: Katie Poirier was killed by released sex offender Donald Blom.

    2003: Dru Sjodin killed by released sex offender Alfonso Rodriguez Jr. after serving his 23 year long sentance. Rodriguez was a model prisoner.

    That is FOUR lives that were taken by sex offenders who had served their time in prison and were released! I'm 100% sure that many more deaths could also be found with some research into the matter.

    I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you. Dru would be alive today if sex offender Alfonso Rodriguez Jr not been released to the general public after serving his so-called "time in prison".

    "Notorious crimes have inspired legislative
    steps to toughen Minnesota's criminal sanctions.

    1988: Mary Foley and Carrie Coonrod are
    raped and killed in Minneapolis parking ramps
    by recently released repeat rapists David
    Anthony Thomas and Thomas Schwartz.

    1989: Legislature more than doubles prison
    terms for rape and increases the minimum time
    to be served on a life sentence from 17 years to
    30 years.

    Aug. 31, 1994: Legislature in special session
    unanimously broadens civil commitment law to
    include repeat rapists like Dennis Linehan, who
    was about to be released. Civil commitments
    increase dramatically in years that follow.

    1996: State passes first program to notify
    residents when released high-risk sex offenders
    move into a neighborhood. Patty Wetterling,
    whose son Jacob was abducted in 1989 and
    never found, helps organize a statewide
    coalition on community notification.

    1999: Katie Poirier abducted from a Moose
    Lake convenience store and killed by released
    sex offender Donald Blom.

    2000: Legislature again doubles prison terms for
    first-degree criminal sexual conduct, to a
    minimum of 12 years."

    Please contact your Senator/Rrepresentatives and ask them to support Bills S 2154 HR 3929 (AKA "Dru's Law") to establish a National sex offender registration database.




    http://www.startribune.com/stories/462/5096002.html
    "Friends and relatives of Dru Sjodin have established a new Web site -- www.drusvoice.com -- to promote passage of "Dru's Law," a proposed national registry of sex offenders. The Senate bill, sponsored by the four U.S. senators from North Dakota and Minnesota, and a companion House resolution are in committees."
