  What on earth is happening to Arsenal?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  2. current

  it turns out arsenal were soundly beaten 3-0 yesterday by crystal palace.

  apparently, the score-line flattered arsenal, not palace.. arsenal have conceded 3 goals in each of their last 3 away games and lost those games.

  a few weeks ago, they lost 10-2 over two legs to bayern munich.

  As a Man Utd fan I'd 8-2 be an Arsenal fan.

  Prison chaplain.

  by quellycatface in

  i'm rather gobsmacked to hear that an elder in my ex congregation has been appointed a prison chaplain (in the uk).

  the reason for my disbelief, is that, this particular prison is for "schedule 1" offenders - covering sex crimes, child abuse/paedophilia and even downloading child pornography.

  the reason for my reaction is that he has at least 9 "disciples" who have a bible study but i cannot help but think that when they are released, they will be part of a congregation, where they will have access to children and vulnerable people?

  Is he official 'Prison Chaplain' or just has access to the inmates as a member of the 'clergy'?

  In fairness, I don't think you will find any other church or organisation who will announce their policies to their congregation on a Sunday morning and then have it read out to them. However what you WILL see are church councils/trustees sitting down behind the scenes ensuring that everything is up to date, and people from above at diocese level asking to see the documentation. That is PROPER administration and oversight.

  And then of course there would be a Child Protection Officer/Governor in each congregation whose responsibility it was to make sure that the policy was turned into practice.

  WT just want ARC off their backs so they can get back under the radar.

  My Old Kingdom Hall being merged with TWO other congregations!

  this can only be a good sign.. my old congregation in liverpool has had a lot of money in it's bank account for years.

  for a long, long time (almost 8 years) they've been looking for land to build a new hall.

  the one they're in now is literally falling to bits.

  Richard Oliver you are indeed a complete imbecile who will attempt to defend your masters even when they sell you down the river. Go back to your Kingdom Hall and turn the lights of when you're the last man to leave. Enjoy every minute of your sad, sorry, deluded time there.

  Just for clarification.

  Is viewing child porn illegal in Australia?

  My new answer to an annoying question we have all been asked.

  by doubtfull1799 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  well new to me anyway, i'm sure someone smarter than me has thought of this before.

  the next time i get asked the perennial (and tired old) question: “but you do believe that the gb are god’s channel of communication, the organisation he is using, don’t you?” or some variation thereof, i am going to reply with two verses and reason as follows:.

  the matter to be established: have the gb of jehovah’s witnesses received divine appointment to act as god’s representatives and channel of communication on earth?.

  How incredibly stupid.

  Virtually every denomination going could take the 3 criteria that they present and provide 'evidence' of Holy Spirit, Angelic Direction and Adherence to Scripture, if they were of a mind to. It's just that only WT are arrogant enough to do so.

  Where is the quote on child pornography? I can't find that on page 3 of the Child Protection Policy.

  My letter to the Australian Royal Commission regarding case study #29 Jehovah's Witnesses

  by EdenOne in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  someone suggested i would address a letter not only to mr. angus stewart, but also to the royal commission as well.

  it merges the two subjects on the same letter (inactive status and shunning; two witness rule), and adds some things more that what i said to mr. stewart.

  it's a bit long, please bear with me.. --------------------------------------- .

  Absolutely stuckinarut.

  I wish the ARC had had this up their sleeve at the hearing. The summer assembly was ALL ABOUT shunning. Total liars.
