Thank you Leolaia, I have saved your references for future use. Reading that garbage actually made me nauseous! How can they ever dare to call themselves followers of Jesus Christ when they write such utter rubbish?
Q
reading through a thread http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/133948/1.ashx apoint being discussed was whether the wt has told people to hate others.
i thought these quotes may be of value.. wt 1961 15th july page 420 .
when a person persists in a way of badness after knowing what is right, when the bad becomes so ingrained that it is an inseparable part of his make-up, then in order to hate what is bad a christian must hate the person with whom the badness is inseparably linked.

(and not obvious stuff like "camel cigs" or "budweiser"), but stuff like "reebok" "quiksilver" etc etc etc.

The non JW spouse of a JW is a "unbelieving mate"

Only two classes of people:
JWs and "worldly people"
Q
can you add to this list?
what scriptures will they probably use???.
expect the following thought stopping replies from the society to the congregations:.
For the reasons stated I was so looking forward to finally having some serious media attention brought to the "dirty little secret" of JWs. Unfortunately, once again they will be successful in hiding the truth from the r&f.
Q
i was just looking at terry's thread and as i read the responses the only thing that came to my mind was the ways i know i will not die.
i know i will not die in a car accident or by drowning.
i have already faced death (or you could say cheated) in those situations.
I will not die having handed over my life to the whims of 9, 12, 16 or whatever number they happen to have on the GB at any one time. Those days are over!!!

re: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/8/116108/1.ashx.
a bethel insider in the know told me that all of the child abuse lawsuits where the watchtower bible and tract society was one of the defendants were settled back in the beginning of this year.
i questioned it and called napa myself and they were absolutely settled back then.
Have they settled ALL of the cases where they were named as defendants, every single one? I am in shock. How long will they continue to get away without major publicity? I am actully sick to my stomach. I was so hoping that bad press would soon be making the headlines. What a sad day!
Q
i know a lot of people that believe they are "better" because they're witnesses.

Quandry- I agree with you too. Mother Theresa was one of the finest human beings to walk this earth, she is truly a saint.

I remember growing up how I always admired all the people I would read about helping this planet and the people on it in practical ways, people involved with Greenpeace, UNICEF, Cousteau Society, especially Jaques himself. I would think how could Jah destroy such wonderful people who are caring for his creation so selflessly, just because they are not JWs? Even when I believed most of what I was taught by the "Society" I never believed the good people on this planet would be obliterated and I never thought I was a "cut above" others, rather I felt many times that these really active volunteers were a "cut above" me.
Q
