We don't need no stinkin' gladiators!
We need love, and plenty of it.
Being a gladiator is just my day job. In the evenings I can give you love and plenty of it Sylvia

by James_Slash ini would say that the jw's are right on this subject.
however, i wouldn't be too comfortable if i was them in thinking that this is taking place within the congregation.. i would say that this is definitely happening where god is concerned.
he is obviously highlighting the paedophile problems and allowing this to take its course.

Thank you for your comment. You have expressed what I was aiming to.
I appreciate that you are sincere but there is a difficulty with saying 'I've come to the conclusion that there can't be any other reason for these things being exposed.'
Paedophiles exist in every society and every effort is made to expose them. Their being outed is not unique to the JWs.

Re: White People are victims of racism too.
We are all victims of something if we allow ourselves to be. Many people claim to be victims to gain unearned advantage. In the UK the victim mentality is well advanced and milked for all it is worth.
Successful living means adapting to changes and meeting new challenges. We need more gladiators to revive the spirit of self sufficiency and survival against the odds.

DEFINITELY - is a dangerous word to use unless we have absolute proof. Once we have a definite opinion we stop examining other possibilities.
Maybe and perhaps - leave room for growth.

What "invisible" persons do you actually firmly believe in?? (and Why?)

invisible persons!.
from ancient times some of us have imagined there to be living persons that can't be seen but that are more than real!.

These are interesting comments and the reason why I try to keep an open mind on this vast subject.

Talking of the delectable Miss Beer Fairy. Leolaia said on page one 'I'd hit that......with my flyswatter.'
Now the idea being left alone with the Beer Fairy and judiciously using a fly swat, for her pleasure of course, has got my imagination going.
This could be why I said earlier that I allow for possibilities!
While Terry is away the mice will play.

Terry: What good does admitting a "possibility" really do us?
Well Terry, it allows us room for growth. Many inventions and scientific breakthroughs were the result of examining possibilities. Most ended in dead ends but some broke new ground.
I allow for possibilities but temper my indulgence with a huge dose of scepticism. The freedom to explore and go outside of presently known boundaries is exciting.
Such liberation has its risks and must be strictly monitored and answerable to rationality. It is all part of the game of life. The secret is to not get caught in the trap of mysticism.

The Beautiful Soul
by compound complex inpolly lamented that she had spent too much time being beautiful.. it was not her fault that life's capricious art had fashioned her so very lovely.
though her outward pulchritude was quite evenly matched by an inner beauty of unsurpassed purity, the young lady was nonetheless uneasy with her separateness from the ordinary folk.
this is not to say that her female companions were inordinately jealous of polly's exquisiteness.

For much of my life I believed in invisible beings. Due to what seemed to be inexplicable insight, I was thought to be psychic by many friends. The difficulty is that anything that cannot be directly perceived through one of our senses could be produced by our imagination.
My present conclusion is that though our mind is capable of much more than we realize. I do not 'believe' in any invisible being. On the other hand I say to myself that there exists the possibility that:

Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." (Hamlet act V)
