  the jehovah’s witnesses settled a lawsuit this week brought by a pennsylvania woman who says the religion’s leaders covered up sexual abuse she suffered as a teenager.. the settlement came five days into a trial in which stephanie fessler, a former jehovah’s witness, claimed the religion’s parent corporation violated pennsylvania’s child abuse reporting laws by instructing local leaders – known as elders – not to report her allegations to police.. according to fessler, a middle-aged jehovah’s witness woman, terry monheim, began sexually abusing her when she was 14. at 15, fessler disclosed the abuse to her parents.

  What is your opinion of the news media?

  to me they have an agenda and they really don't care about professional journalism.

  most are untrustworthy and that's a shame.

  all that talk about hillary clinton's unsecured e-mails?

  read the following:.

  "deagazio posted additional photos from the weekend, including one of his dining companions kissing trump on the cheek, a selfie with white house strategist steve bannon and another selfie identifying a man named rick who he says is responsible for carrying the nuclear “football,” which allows the president to authorize a nuclear attack while away from the white house.. "“this is rick,” wrote deagazio.

  Trump's presidency is descending into farce, and that's where it will stay for the next four years.

  His NSA has gone for cosying up to the Russians, his communications team can't get a coherent message out. His EO is in tatters and there isn't one metre of wall built yet.

  And this is just the first three weeks!

  I'm just looking forward to Have I Got News Foy You starting again.

  The Inherent Founding Paganism of the Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is an inherent founding association with paganism through and by the founding leader of the watchtower corporation that has to be realized and accepted as such.

  c t russell was once the head editorial writer for the wts.

  right up until his death in 1916. russell had associated himself with freemasons for awhile, giving talks at freemason halls and handing out literature he published at the same time.. he made up more or less a commercialized version of the gospel based upon a new era for mankind which he calculated by measuring the dimensions of the great pyramid of giza.

  But if that new light comes from the top of a pagan Pyramid at its source you still have a pretentious " New Light "

  Yeah, but if you take all the old books out of the congregation library then it never happened, right?

  first, i've been out of the organization for 20 years this very year!

  i was baptized in 1979 and attended one of the lancaster ohio congregations.

  realizing i was gay, i left and after being in the columbus gay community for 6 months, decided bar hopping and cruising was not my cup o' tea.i decided to return in late '90 and was reinstated in '91.

  BTW, I did not leave due to sexuality issues.

  it would have been enough, with the exception of a couple of southern US states fundie sects, I don't think I can think of a worse religion to grow up in as a gay person.
