i was wondering what people think of leah remini's comments on the paul higgins accusations.

she has said that the 5 women that have accused him of rape and sexual harassment are not to be trusted.

she says that because 3 of them want to stay anonymous that must mean that they are not accurate statements.

McFarland Lawsuit

2. child-abuse
i am not sure if anyone heard but it does appear that the mcfarland v watchtower lawsuit has been settled.

the court only shows that it was settled so there was no longer a need for a status conference.

that is all that i know on this.

Signing petitions in other countries or writing to other countries inquires.
by John Davis in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
i am seeing this petition and call for people to write to the iicsa so that they will investigate watchtower.

i think that this part is good if the person who signs the petition or writes the letter is a citizen or a resident of that country.

i have a problem when people who are citizens or residents of other countries do this when they write into an inquiry like the arc or sign petitions.

For Christians: What do you think about an Armagedon and the Afterlife
by John Davis in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i don't mean for anyone to get into argument over this, i just want to hear what people believe.i hope that no one will mock or argue with someone else about their beliefs, i know that i won't in this topic.. i still believe in a christian god, not what jws believe, but believe that there has to be something after this life.

i am not sure about how armageddon would go, would it be like how evangelicals believe with a rapture or timing or anything, though i still believe in a form of armageddon.

i do think that all good people will go to heaven but i don't believe in a hell.
