  I've emailed ABC 20/20

  by mauiboy in

  2. child-abuse

  it was so easy i should have done it long ago....i went to www.abc.com, filled in the search bar with "20/20" and then clicked on 'email us'.

  my request was simple "please do an expose' on j.w.

  's and how they hide and protect pedophiles and then require those same pedophiles to go into public neighborhoods....putting them in contact with innocents, while not even being known amongst their own congregation members for the vile persons they are".. if enough of us make similar requests.....maybe,just maybe, we'll get our request.

  You should tell them about what's happening in Norway, too.

  Sincere Apology

  by Christ Alone in

  2. friends

  i just wanted to give an overall apology regarding how i was speaking to people on friday.

  but the shooting really shook me up.

  i think i said some things that were offensive to people, and even if my words were not offensive, the way i expressed myself was.

  I avoided reading most of the threads on that topic, so I didn't catch it. It takes a big person to admit to a mistake publicly. You done good.

  If we wanted you to know the details of the other persons' work we would have assigned that work to you.

  This must be a fairly new rule, probably to combat leaks to the apostates on the Internet *rubs hands together while snickering* My brother was a Bethelite for 18 years, and he shared stuff with us, including info from Morning Worship. But he left Bethel in 1999, before the Internet was EVIL. And Happy Birthday, Green Hornet!

  Wouldn't the Almighty God have done a much better job than that?

  here is some good advice:.

  ask the jw you are studying with where the original manuscripts of the bible are kept.. see if they are even aware of the fact there are none in existence anywhere!.

  their religious views are from men who assert that the bible is their foundation.

  It took me a long time to let go of the Bible, but then I watched "Religulous" with Bill Maher. When he got to the part where he was interviewing an actor playing "Jesus" at an amusement park and said that the whole Jesus story had been floating around the Mediterranean area for thousands of years before Jesus was born, the scales fell from my eyes. Plagiarism! In the Bible! Dude, seriously?

  Some of the comments claim it's fake. I've sent it to Snopes for confirmation.

  Christmas Plans

  by LouBelle in

  2. friends

  so what are your plans for christmas.. this year i am not spending it with my entire family.

  some of them are doing their own thing/have their own plans, which i don't mind as sometimes those paticular family members can be straining.. so it will be spent with my mum, brother, father, some family friends and a couple of "strays" (people that don't have family to spend christmas with so we invite them over).

  there will be a light breakfast shared and gifts opened in the morning.. i'm cooking up a feast:.

  2. friends

  our co gave the illustration about a jar filled with golf balls ,pebbles and sand ......it was suppose to illustrate how if we put theocratic things first other things like family and entertainment will fit .

  I would imagine the WTBTS ripped off that story and transformed a heartwarming story into a club with which to pummel the brotherhood.
