  What would happen if the WTS admits to coverup

  by obiwan in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i was just thinking and wondering,what do you think would happen if the wts admitted to child molestation in the organization?how do you think they would spin it off,do you think they would try to find some other "biblical" explanation?with all the instances of the wts getting involved with "the world",such as investing in questionable companies,the u.n. scandal and so on do you think there would be that much outcry from the members around the world?i'm interested in everyone's thoughts on this,i personally feel that the more coverage the wts gets on child molestation the less they will be able to deny it and eventually they will have to admit to something.give me your thoughts and opinions on the subject.

  I do realize they think they are perfect,but with all the media gearing up showing this problem surely they would admit to something and spin it off so they wouldn't loose members.

  i just wanted to get a little dialog going with some of the members here who workout.

  i know reborn works out quite a bit and i've been doing fairly well as of recently in getting back into a regular exercise regimine.

  so far i've worked out everyday for the past 17 days, i usually try to do weight training at least 3-4 times a week and i usually do some cardio everyday.

  I have been off for about a year,but I'm getting back into the routine again.My goal is to get back to the trim self I used to be around 205 to 210,right know I'm at 230-235,I had been at about 10% body fat but it's more than that know.I want to get back to the averages I was lifting,bench 275,squat 350,curl 100,these are the basics of my routine and are workout averages not maxes.I also do about 45 minutes to an hour of cardiovery important,I don't like to be in the gym for more than two hours,I don't want to over train.I'm also going to start seeing one of those little oriental ladies that about 5 feet tall and doesn't look like they could hurt a fly,they know the old way of stretching a person to stay limber,a buddy of mine who is about 6'4" and 250 said he went and the lady made him scream like a little girl,after the session he went home exhausted and just fell out but the next day he felt great much more limber and in about two weeks he was lifting more than before.So that's the long and short of my goals.

  How many did YOU recruit?

  by In_between_days in

  just a quick question, and one that seems to take jehovahs witnesses back a little, an extremely good question to ask a pioneer.

  "so, with all your hours of service, how many people have you actually brought into the jehovahs witness organisation?".

  um.... genuinely, 100% of my old jw freinds have all been raised in the organisation.

  very few people in life will ever understand the struggle that we have endured, conquered, and go on conquering.. i've spent long hours, choosing my words carefully, and my intelligent wife, i feel, still has no clue.. we're still here.
