PORTUGAL: Filed a petition to the parliament to erase the legal entity of the Jehovah's Witness
by EdenOne inbased on legal arguments that revolve around violations of several articles of the portuguese constitution, and of the law of religious freedom, a petition to the portuguese parliament has been set in motion to extinguish the legal entity that represents the jehovah's witness in portugal and remove this community from the national register of recognized religions protected by law.
the petition does not seek to ban the jehovah's witness as a whole in the country.
the petition denounces the institutional policy of shunning former members as a violation of basic human rights and psychological torture, and asks the portuguese legislators and judicial authorities to take action to stop this abuse, and suspend legal recognition to the branch office entity until the policies of shunning are changed.

I`m sorry if this question has been answered before Eden One ,have you also sought out other ex JW sites to get people to sign this petition ?
If so I think it`s a pretty poor response so far and I just wonder why that may be from your point of view ?

I think this should be bumped for newbies .
If your not familiar with Jimmy Swaggart and his TV/Radio Evangelism he has built a Dynasty of a Religious Empire since beginning full time Evangelism only since 1955 that reaches out all over the USA New Zealand and Australia .
Look up his achievements ( Empire Building) on the internet you will have to admit it`s impressive in the short time he has been operating.
So why would the WTB&TS become a "Friend Of The Court" in a court case against Jimmy Swaggart defending his position ?
Wasn`t / isn`t he a part of "Babylon The Great" false religion ?

Australian States & Territories Fail to Sign Up on a Redress Scheme For Victims of Child Sexual Abuse.
by smiddy3 inat a recent coag {,council of australian governments} meeting the subject/issue of states & territories to sign up for a national redress scheme to compensate victims of institutional abuse sexual and otherwise fell on deaf ears.. not one state or territory agreed to sign up .
not one.. i am sure the victims of child sexual abuse within various institutions not only the jehovah`s witnesses victims would be very disheartened to learn that.individual states and territories of government within australia do not support a national redress scheme to compensate victims of child sexual abuse .. the south australian govt.
to my understanding is they will never do so .

I don`t see how it could be interpreted to mean it`s referring to an eclipse when it`s indicating the sun was about midday and didn`t set for a whole day .
To me that says the sun was visible in the sky for 18 hours and not the usual 12 hours.
The scripture also says the moon was visible in the daylight hours also which happens and it also remained motionless in the sky
.What the Bible writer didn`t appreciate Is that the sun does not revolve around the earth and for it to apparently stand still the earth would have had to stop rotating on it` axis which would have been catastrophic for all life on earth.
It just couldn`t happen

An elder with only one testicle
by stillin ini happen to be one of very few people who know of this condition that the man has.
he had an accident several years ago with some power equipment.
leviticus 21:20 commands that no man present the bread at the temple with damaged testicles... so?.

I knew a few sisters over the years that stood up to the Elders in their respective congregations over personal issues .
I guess they had balls that the Elders didn`t.
{ Well if women can have beards in heaven I can`t see why they can`t have balls on earth }
