  Catholics don't ex-communicate the victims

  by no1special in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sorry, hit return too fast!.

  what i've read about the catholic church handling pedophiles has made me think.

  when it comes to protecting the perverts, they are no better than the watchtower.. but, i've never heard of any of the catholic victims being ex-communicated (as the pandelo's were from the jw's) or facing the threat of ex-communication (like bill bowen).

  last night, besides announcing someone was disf.

  and attacks on the catholic church's doctrines, they gave the april report of finances..... their expenses $900 and some... the collections were $500 and some, and they sent $300 and some to wt... they have a $300 some deficit.

  they have to pay $12 at the bank; i was wondering if they have bounced a check :-) so.... they have in their pocket $500 and some... they asked to be generous on last night's donations.. there were only few people, half of when i last went three years ago.. circumstances brought me there to be with my daughter last night.. after the meeting, one of the speakers approached me to ask my opinion about a video they were all commenting.... i told him, "why do you want the opinion of a 'worldly person'?

  hey, i owe yk a hearty thank-you.. you know those essays you posted about the financial system crashing?

  well, went to one of the sites cited, and found out gold was priced at the cost of production (about 6 months ago around $260 / oz).

  invested in a south african gold mining company several months ago.. i've made a hefty profit so far (gold is now over $300 / oz), and i just cashed a chunk of it in.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so much of jw belief is based on just one or two scriptures, while they ignore the thrust of true christianity!

  here are some examples:.

  i usually don't like letter writing programs, but i may i ask all of you- could you take the time to drop an email to anyone who publishes an article in the paper like we have seen in ref to the bryant family.. these reporters appreciate feedback and if you ever wanted to offer help or do something - this just might be your opportunity, .

  so i as as many of you as possible drop these folks a line.

  how old were you when you lost your virginity and was it all that you thought it would be?????.

  i was 19, and my first time was a complete let down.

  i envisioned that gothic romance motif, all about romance and love, i didn't know what i was doing, didn't know sex was like that.

  by JT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think the small time lawyer will be out gunned on this one- most small towns always end up passsing goofy laws like this one.

  while i have no love for wt i do know a poorly written law when i see one exp when the mayor is walking around in affect saying: "ww want to keep you people out".

  the boys in legal laugh when they see some elective dude say some off the cuff remark like that.
