  reading hellriders topic made me wonder about this.. i waited till i was 21 because i was drinking alcohol as a youth and didn't want to get baptized while breaking the law.

  man that is screwed up, seemed reasonable at the time.

  Is the WTS still a UN NGO?

  by Quandary in

  i recently had a confidential conversation with a former elder who stepped down because of his disenchantment with all the recent scandals (paedophilia,blood,un etc...) and he mentioned that he had heard from a reliable source that the wts is still a ngo with the un but under a different name.

  i asked if he could find out the name of the corporation they were using and he said he would try to do so and get back to me.

  has anyone else heard anything similar?

  I am going to keep in touch with the ex elder who told me about this. He is going to try to find out the actual corporation and let me know.

  Nicolau: I had the same reaction. However, I would not be surprised, who really knows how many corporations they have set up? I do think it is possible.

  **MUST READ** AlanF's email to Knocking.org

  by sf in

  this is a must-read that, hopefully, will stay an "active topic" for all seekers and lurkers, by bumping it to the top as often as possible.

  alan wrote it in randys {dogpatch} thread regarding knocking.org documentary and in reply to the email mr. engardio sent to barbara anderson.

  however, it is so vital a read that it indeed needs its own thread:.

  Your loss!! Ang Lee is one of the "maestros" in cinema today, probably one of the BEST directors in cinema history. To offer opinions without having seen the movie is just pure nonsense! This movie is not a "gay" movie, it brings to life a beautiful human love story about two people who happen to discover they are gay, portrayed by a very talented cast, with minimal emphasis on sex. Some people have mentioned how it grosses them out to think about two men or two women having sex, well this movie is not graphic by any stretch of the imagination, actually the scenes of "intimate" contact are very tastefully carried out, but of course, it's ANG LEE directing! So if your mind goes into the gutter while watching the movie, it's your own fault.
