the guy who owns this website is supposed to be the guy who made the "caleb" videos for the wt......he has recently moved into my wifes' congregation.. (i have been 'in-active' for almost 8 years, so have very few ties to anyone in the congragation except for my wife, and our relationship is more room-mates than anything, so i dast not ask regarding this.

any info from her would be biased anyway).. quite by accident my grandson mentioned that he'll be doing some editing for this fella.

i visited the website momentarily and felt sick at the openiong screen: seriously j-dub influenced.

Is there a search bar for jw.org??

i registered as a user (under an alias of course) but can't find a search bar anywhere on the site......i'm not a tech-savvy person, but usually can find what i need.

i will repost this question under the post "counteract jw.org august 2014 campaign" participating in that idea was what prompted me to open an account on the jw site in the 1st place.

other than that the whole thing makes me want to puke..

the tv news about syria is truly disgusting, and it is only the tip of a much bigger situation that has been going on for milleniums.

:"mans inhumanity to man".

but i can't get the scripture at james 4:17 out of my mind.

I've emailed ABC 20/20

it was so easy i should have done it long ago....i went to www.abc.com, filled in the search bar with "20/20" and then clicked on 'email us'.

my request was simple "please do an expose' on j.w.

's and how they hide and protect pedophiles and then require those same pedophiles to go into public neighborhoods....putting them in contact with innocents, while not even being known amongst their own congregation members for the vile persons they are".. if enough of us make similar requests.....maybe,just maybe, we'll get our request.

there was a thread in one of the topcs on this forum .....i think it was aclled "smoking gun" and it had copies of a letter from the wtb&ts stating the '2 witness' rule.

i believe the incriminating lines were high-lighted in yellow.

i meant to bookmark it, but didn't.....duh.

The Watchtowers mission statement....changed ??when??
by mauiboy in

2. friends
seems to me that years ago the wt's mission statement inside the front cover of the magazine mentioned that when donations cease, it would be recognized that it was time to cease publication of the magazine.

does anyone else remember this...or am i losing it?

the satement now has nothing even suggesting such a sentiment, and i was wondering how others re-call it?

in our local paper (maui news) on dec.11 there appeared an article entitle "we need a new pledge".

it dealt with the need for childrens protection from pedophiles.

it screamed for an answer noting the victorian law reagrding 'working with children' as an example of what has been done elsewhere in the world towards this end.
