  WOW, Now all the nations will know that the WTS doesn't care about protecting the young children in the organization. They only care about protecting themselves.

  Education is the Key to Everything

  education (not necesarily structured classroom and not necessarily college) is really the key to everything.\.

  skyrocketing birthrates go down when the women get educated about birth control and disease.

  even where such education is freely available, birthrates go down further when the women go to college and wait to have babies.

  Panhandle Girl, even though I disagree with the Bible, I am educated better to be familiar with what it says and how it is misused and used.

  OTWO, I assumed that as an exjw and former elder (I believe) that you were familar with the scripture. I don't understand how that scripture could be missused, but I admit to not knowning everything. My experience has been that those with a university degree or some other type of knowledge i.e. plumbers, bricklayers, or grant writers, such as BizzyBee,ect. usually can make a decent living. My daughter became a buyer for a large farm and ranch corporation despite not having a degree in marketing because she had expeience in the field. She did go on to get her marketing degree and now only those with a degree in marketing are considered for becoming buyers in that corporation. Although the majoriety of nurses have an ADN, I chose to get my BSN because the American Nurses Association wants all nurses to obtain that degree.I obtained my certification as an Oncology nurse to increase my knowledge and to increase my income.It took me 6 years to go from ADN (associates degree in nursing) to BSN because I worked full time and attended college full time. I only posted what I feel about education from my own experience.

  I will add that I recieved my ADN at the age of 54, BSN at the age of 62, and a BSA in Spanish at 65. I am the President elect for the Oncology Nurses Organization, a worldwide organization of Oncology Nurses. I am scheduled to attend the Leadership Conference for oncoming Presidents of ONS. I am now 68. I mention this only to show that I am an adocate for education, no matter how old a person is. I am practically a bornin (age 4 when we became jws) exjw and mourn the fact that I had to wait until I was a senior citizen before I got a degree.

  Incidently, I listened to the six screens interview until Barbara left at midnight. She said she was exhausted. She went into another man's program. He wanted to talk theology, but she said she had stayed late to answer questions.Rick interruped to make sure she could answer question,s as there were so many on the phone lines waiting to speak to her. I got to talk to her and so did others from JWN. She did a great job of answering our questions. The attorney was also great and very controlled. His main conceren was Candace and he was protective of her. Also, Rick Fearon did a good job; he did not interrupt or hog the show. He did good,imo.

  Cedars, I believe that Barbara said last night that the Associated Press had picked up the story and that it would go worldwide from there. She said it was still early, only two days. She said she thought it would speed up come Monday. She also stated that Simon, the attorney, and Candace would be interviewd on tv Monday, but she did not know the time; the tv crews were scheduled to come to the office. Don't lose heart. We will get there.

  rick simons, candace conti's attorney, will be interviewed on the six screens of the watchtower conference phone line this evening.

  there's a good chance that candace will join in, but that's not set in stone.

  the host of the program, rick, told me to tell everybody that he is learning how to calm down and to do better on these conference calls.

  This has been an excellent conference call. There have been good questions asked and Barbara is excellent at giving answers. She is very informative.
