What’s your favorite "News" website?
by Wonderment innews in general are supposed to be unbiased.
but given how commercial and political interests get their tentacles around them, finding a fully unbiased news website is not so easy.. here in america some would rather trust bbc or reuters than they do cnn or fox news.

smiddy3: I got my JW degree in journalism from reading "Watching the World" in the Awake! magazine without ever having to go to university or do any study whatsoever.
Now I'm fully qualified to wash windows and judge others.
My favourite ongoing academic reference from the Awake! magazine is "one scientist said ..." not to be confused with "one [insert field of work here] said ..."

4:9) the word “hospitality” in greek literally means “fondness for, or kindness to, strangers.” note, however, that peter urged his christian brothers and sisters to be hospitable “to one another,” to those whom they already knew and associated with.

There's something to do with donations to Watchtower in that statement. But I can't quite put my ice-cream money on it.

Does jehovah recognise the authority of pagan wedding ceremonies?
If yes then even He is subject to the authority of paganism.

Interesting that someone has down voted every comment that does not blindly support a New York-based corporation.

"These raids are further evidence that Russia is brazenly persecuting Jehovah’s Witnesses, despite the fact that respected international human rights organizations have condemned their actions. These outright abuses of our religious freedom are not going unnoticed,” David Semonian, international spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses at their world headquarters in New York, told Newsweek.
Brazen conduct but no claim of criminal or unlawful conduct by David Semonian. Curious use of words.

The family and the deceased are personally known by a number of people within the XJW community here in Australia, including friends of mine. They are in mourning, like many of us, but especially for the children. A tragic situation for all.
