  .............from a national pizza chain, bearing the message, "merry crustmas.".

  i'd like to see them try and capitalise on ramadan by changing that religious festival's name in a similar way.

  Years ago, certain steel components were heat treated in baths of molten salt and then a furnace, in order for them to withstand the stresses of the rigours to which they'd be subjected. Some components were twisted by the experience and discarded. The parts which endured could then take whatever came their way.

  Ruined? Definitely not. More determined and resilient.

  russell & rutherfraud knew they were on to a winner when they started and then re-branded their cult business empire.

  businessmen first, charlatans second - nothing more, nothing less.

  "A nonprofit is tax exempt under 501(c)(3) requirements if it is either a religious, charitable, or educational based organization.

  The key aspects of nonprofits is accountability, trustworthiness, honesty, and openness to every person who has invested their time, money, and faith into the organization. Nonprofit organizations are accountable to the donors, funders, volunteers, program recipients, and the public community. In many aspects, non-profits are similar to corporate business entities, though there are often significant differences. A notable exception to this involves churches, which are often not required to disclose finances to anyone, including church members." (WikiPedia)

  i have noted that the irritable part of me got the better of me when posting about j f rutherford.

  i acknowledge that a few on here have pointed out flaws in my reasoning and the way i reason.

  and i agree with them.

  Maybe the parole board decided to acknowledge his rehabilitation and have made him hand back the State pen's laptop before he left. Trolleys now beckon!

  If atheists are wrong and theists are right, they'll both acknowledge the reality.

  If atheists are right and theists are wrong, neither will acknowledge the reality.

  Both have a faith of a different eventuality.

  Do they officially give marking talks without telling the one marked?

  by Wakanda in

  2. beliefs

  my pimi (physically in, mentally in) friend believes she was marked without them telling her.

  i believe her, and she has been making work for the elders.

  she is a pain in their arse, and they are a pain in hers, which is great.

  Yup, had a marking talk done on me by the CoBE without any warning - as revenge for justifiably reporting him and his fellow wolves to the Branch. It's wonderful to get such self-condemnatory evidence that the congregation was & is ruled over by such latter-day Pharisees & intellectual pygmies!

  "Princes," gifts in men," & "glorious ones?" Delusional & evil minded scum-bags who are legends in their own minds.

  Qrystal, I'm so sorry for your loss and I know what your pain feels like. I too lost my dad when I was a teenager but I never had a close friend to confide in. Talk with someone who you know will be there for you, if you can. The pain will subside, and you will be credit to your dad as you deal with your grief. Many here will offer advice kindly to you if you have any questions. I wish you well.

  The Netherlands: Minister for Legal Protection wants Jehovah's Witnesses to conduct an independent investigation of sexual abuse

  by jochie in

  2. child-abuse

  meanwhile in the netherlands:minister dekker: jehovah's witnesses must review abuse policyin order to protect children better against abuse, the jehovah's witnesses must look back on catholics, according to minister dekker.

  but abuse victims think that this approach will not work.. minister sander dekker for legal protection wants the jehovah's witnesses to conduct an independent investigation of sexual abuse within the community, just like the catholic church.

  this is stated in a letter he sent this week to the parliamentary committee for justice and security.

  Is this Dutch government minister really so out of touch with what's going with the WTBTS in courts around the world - especially in Australia?

  He should do some Googling and see the GB's declaration about not abandoning the two-witness rule, before speaking publicly about what he'd like the cult to do about JW child-abusers. Then he might consider getting his government to do something meaningful.

  The great increase of income continues for the WTBTS while its corporate contraction accelerates!!!!!

  Thank you WiFibandit - immediately passing this on to my shun-fulll JW sibling. I hope this hits a raw nerve in them. They can ignore me, but they can't in good conscience ignore the fact that the visible presence of their cult/religion/business is rapidly shrivelling around the world and has headed for the hills - in a compound in Warwick N.Y. Excellent start to Saturday.
