well, it's been a very long road, so far, but, for the greater good.. appeal decision posted today.. http://www.canlii.org/en/ab/abca/doc/2016/2016abca255/2016abca255.html?autocompletestr=highwood%20congr&autocompletepos=1.
Good luck.
I understand that it's the economic impact of the DF that makes the court willing to review the case.
But imho what should be reviewed by the court is that the life of a less than 15 year old child and their family can be destroyed because the child decided/was pressured to become 'member of a self governed organisation', but failed to foresee all consequences of that 'decision'.
so many good shows these days.
however mr. robot is really well done and interesting.
wondering if anybody else has been watching.
We watched first few episodes and stopped because my wife doesn't like it. I intend to continue myself.
But for now I'm too busy watching 5 seasons of the Walking Dead. Watching mindless zombies. Apparently I got used to them while still in...
...it looks like a generic, easy to sell barn hall.. https://youtu.be/eqwrfhbbqwy.
nothing like the old hall it's built next to.. the small room in the video is the indoctrination education center.. the building is completed one year ahead of schedule.
my guess: it's either much simpler than they originally planned, and/or they had more volunteers because nothing else is being built.. video is dutch, but nothing interesting is said anyway..
For those wondering if this new hall is just the building style up here: yes, for event halls used for business fairs, indoor markets, or sports.
But auditoria normally are much more luxurious and 'finished'.
Here's a picture of the original hall:
Notable differences: carpet vs concrete floor, somewhat comfy chairs vs wooden chairs, ceiling vs roof, pretty brick walls vs ugly concrete and iron framing.

besides being raised in the religion , why do people become jws?
.
People who join high control groups like JW or Scientology are not crazy. Nor do they become a member; they are recruited.
An excellent explanation of how the process works is shown in this video by TheraminTrees:

it also shortly mentions the child abuse cover up scandal by jehovahs witnesses and compares that to catholic church (around 16:30 mark).

acute normovolemic hemodilution.
hemodilution simply refers to the process of diluting the blood with another substance.
there are various ways that this is done before, during and after the surgical process.
Wow, you're digging deep!
Great find and write up. Thanks!
Are you planning on presenting/publishing your research somehow?
the missing song 151 now titled "the revealing of god's sons" shows up with the september edition of tv.jw.
no words or score on the jw page yet.
can't say that it sounds any different than any of the other songs they produce now.
@Half Banana,
You remind me of an older brother in my town who consistently read 'organism' as 'orgasm'. Book studies became a lot more interesting with him ;-)
The same brother commented on how immoral the world had become during a FS meeting. "There used to be only naked women on television...but now you'll even see naked men! Disgusting!"

And then with Christ, these sons of God......Will wage the final war.
The joyous marriage to the Lamb
Will last forevermore.
1) Of course it has to be repeated over and over that this is about God's sons. Even anointed women are sons, not daughters. Because females are worth much less than men. At least to Snowy Christ and his Seven Dwarfs. And that God dude.
2) So these 'sons of god' (including the forced transgenders) will marry their own brother! Ewk! Now I suddenly realize what the anointed mean when they say 'Jesus comes soon' and 'Christ's second coming'. Must be a heavenly wedding night...
“The one who bears witness of these things says, ‘Yes, I am coming quickly.’"
“Amen! Come, Lord Jesus.”
so i was talking with my daughter the other day and she tells me that she doesn't want me to push my beliefs on her.i am agnostic.
which isn't a belief.
it's a lack of belief.
This is not a fight. There are no sides. There is no contest to be won. Both of you can only lose if you push her away...
Don't teach your kid what to (not) think or believe. Help her understand how to think and research.
Let her draw her own conclusions. Yes, they may be different from your conclusions.
Ask questions. Not to shame, be to understand what she thinks and why.
Ask questions. Not to destroy and attack, but to provoke her to actually think.
Oh btw...if your daughter actually said you shouldn't be pushy (did she really say so?), you were pushy. Even if you were not. Try to figure out why she feels that way. It can help you improve your relationship with her.
