Of course there are going to be "bad people" in every organization and no one can blame an organization for that...it's the cover up that puts them at fault. They have an obligation to the congregation to let the members know of ANY and EVERY potential danger to themselves, and especially to their children. Witnesses are so quick to trust eachother...."if he's a brother he must be ok" and they let their guard down. This is SCARY. If this had been a teacher in their child's school, and the board of education knew of this man's past and said that they would just "keep an eye on him" but allow him to have unlimited and unsupervised contact with their children, you can bet they wouldn't be singing the praises of the board of education!

I don't see what the big deal is. They are selling products to a specific market..a market that hasn't been tapped into much. Brilliant! Witnesses spend A LOT of money on supplies for FS..why should Walmart get all the profits?? lol

CAN EVERYONE DO ME A FAVOUR?
by Mary ini haven't been on here much lately, but i read barb anderson's report on the court case in california the other day.
nice to see the borg finally getting what they deserve.. anyway, the daily mail has done a story about it and at the end you can give your comments.
i think there are a number of 'faithful witlesses' on there who are giving the "thumbs down" to any negative comments about the borg, including mine.

My take on the new Be Jehovah's Friend DVD

This video was really sad. I actually got a knot in my stomach watching it...as I also get a knot in my stomach every time my sisters start to talk to my young kids about Jehovah and his reward for them IF they refuse to celebrate Christmas or if they throw away a toy that they love but that my sister feels is "demonized", ( yes, she uses terms like "demonized" and "immoral" and "pagan" around my kids, especially when they mention a holiday we are celebrating!) My sister was babysitting my kids for a weekend and when I came home my son told me that she took them to a movie as a reward for him throwing away his entire collection of Pokemon cards and toys...he had been collecting them for years! She did a real number on him, terrified him by telling him that God watches what he plays with and that some toys are "evil" to God and it makes him mad....now this poor kid had never even stepped foot in a Kingdom Hall, yet he felt guilty enough for playing with "bad" toys that he readily tossed them out. Needless to say, much as I love my sister...she is not allowed to discuss anything JW with my kids or she won't be allowed to spend any unsupervised time with them..ever.
Excellent job on the video...really is an eye opener. Thanks for sharing it!

[group:1226287327273] on [fwprodcontent06.ni.news.com.au] @ [june 01, 2012 11:29pm] promo-image-01 promo-image-a // .promo-image // .promo-block.promo-image-01 // .module-content // .module.module-promo-image-01 // .item ipos-1 irpos-1 // .group-content.item-count-1 // .group // .story-intro google_ad_section_start(name=story_body, weight=high) justice richard white yesterday heard the girl, who cannot be identified, was diagnosed with cancer of the blood and bone marrow on monday.. doctors advised she have a blood transfusion but her parents objected on religious grounds.. their opposition prompted the hospital to petition the court saying that, without treatment, the girl would die in a matter of weeks.. in emotional scenes yesterday, the girl's father wept as he spoke of his love for his daughter.
but he explained that his family's faith prohibited blood transfusions.. "we adhere to strict bible principles and one of those is to abstain from blood," he said.

Having lost my 13 year old son last summer, reading this breaks my heart. I would have done anything to save my son. Their child is too young to decide for herself if she even believes what her parents believe, yet it's HER life at stake. Parents force this cult on their children and it isn't fair. The courts should definitely step in..this way she gets the life saving treatment and the parents can keep their "good conscience". Maybe that's what they really want anyway....but they don't want to be the ones to break what they believe is God's law.
