Perfect response
by Cerise ini was hoping to get some advice on what to say to a parent who wouldn’t support you to get married to a “worldy person”.
always bringing up “marry only in the lord” even when that hasnt worked out for the parent, twice divorced lol.
is there a way to discredit that scripture or argue back respectfully without giving away that you are pimo?.

@ John Prestor. That was always my understanding.
Paul was instructing those who based their faith in Christ Jesus, i.e. Christians, to marry someone who shared that faith in Christ.
Even first century Christians had differing opinions on certain aspects of their new faith, but the one teaching which was expected of every Christian, was that Jesus was their Messiah. (2 John 9-11)

My conversation with the "Fixer" attorney for Pentecostal TV evangelists
by TerryWalstrom ini had occasion to chat with a man who was the attorney for a large cabal (all related by blood) of pentecostal tv evangelists.
how it came about was as follows.i was finishing my first book about my stint in prison as a jw (i wept by the rivers of babylon)and a man in a suit walked over and asked me what i was working on.he said he'd seen me every day and got curious.i told him.he jumped at the chance to unburden at that point.in the course of our conversation, he opened my eyes to a great many things, not the least of which was the poisonous inevitability of larceny which comes with being a spokesman for god's 'truth.
'he described the process.

Whatever the primary & real reason for the org's thirst for cash is, maybe we'll live long enough for a high ranking HQ individual to waken up and reveal the dark truth.
My money's still on the org being heavily in debt/virtually bankrupted by Wall Street. I can dream! :)

Well deserved! I wish him a long and successful career.
It was wonderful watching him as he used his higher education and superior intellect to expose the WTBTS and its yes-men for what they really are - religious con-men and liars!

Punishments which are handed out for offences can often seem to be either disproportionate or not severe enough.
How many named paedophile priests have actually escaped being jailed for their terrible acts?
Compare what they've done with what an Orangeman did to a Catholic priest.

In other words, Christianity in general is a no-no in China. It's not just JW's who are being "persecuted."

Aww shucks, c'mon everybody, give Geoffrey Jackass & his fellow "lovers of truth" a break!
The Vatican has used hell-fire & purgatory for centuries to terrify and control its minions - especially the children - so surely the H8teful8 in Warwick are entitled to concoct their own business model!

What is Racially Derogatory Language
by barry inhere is australia the race commissioner has claimed senator o'sullivan is in violation of racially derogatory language.
senator sullivan has said the biggest threat to biosecurity is ' some bloody old chinaman that brings in his favourite sausage down the front of his undies' chin tan said using the word chinaman is offensive.
makes you wonder is englishman or australian man or scotsman is also just as offensive.

I really fear for the livelihoods of stand-up comedians nowadays. Maybe not so much in the U.S. but definitely in the U.K. Making jokes or ridiculing certain groups/types/nations/minorities is not only viewed as being "politically incorrect", it's fast becoming a criminal offence!
More sinisterly, someone voicing an opposite viewpoint to a certain demographic's thinking or behaviour will almost certainly result in bringing down social media fire & brimstone on the commenter - or something much worse!
Freedom of speech?
p.s. I'm a Jock - but don't you dare call me that!!!! It would offend me. :)
