Ozman : When I was a JW child, my mum told me she would rather let me die than for me to have blood transfusion.
The calculated cruelty seems extreme to our values, but I linked this BBC/ap story to show the parallel between the shunning custom of the wt arrangement and the Isis methods. The banishment, shunning, disfellowshipping, extreme cutoff between so close blood ties over minor, fleeting doctrine, procedure differences makes just as much sense. What a way to honour your mother. Ideally wt wants his adherents to have the same devotion to them that this young man or rather coward displayed, Big Man, shooting a captive, his mother no less, . big man. wt cowards too, in failure to allow free debate, defend their history, their current "truth",their injustices. symbolically try, advocate to kill, silence their exposers instead.

The Lion King meets Joel Olsteen... Thank you for putting this up gnd. david Splane must have a good day/night, or a day off. My little 3 year old daughter voiced it and danced to it, as she does unashamedly at the hall to all the music.

There is a difference between bringing them into the 21st century and bringing them in by the millions, unreformed, into your country. The lessons of Cologne, Rotherham.

Is the Watchtower organisation facing the biggest crisis of its history?

1. watchtower
2. scandals
recent developments make me think they might be.

the problems they are facing are not just lack of funds but also draining authority, and the two could be a heady and explosive mix.

one of the best analyses ever written of the watchtower was a book called "trumpet of prophecy" by sociologist james beckford in the 1970s.

Originally the media refused to report the crime yeah it was like back to the WW2 days in Germany,when you had to listen to BBC to know what really went on and risk prison. As a boy I was used as a courier to deliver hand-built superhet radios that brought in BBC unlike the Volksempfaenger. They were traded for hams, hence the title Ham radios-not. Shame on the lot to sacrifice their young ladies to these invaders. If they are ever caught, and in court, Merkel should be indicted as a co-defendant. The callous disregard of the politicians for their own population and the media cover-up is stunning, even then it is not a question of punishment, but merely deportation, or beherps withholding of their welfare income? deportation to come across the border again?
sacrifice their young ladies, like biblical Lot's false sense of hospitality. is this what orientals expect of their hosts?

TL: That's if if if they haven't already mortgaged those buildings in Brooklyn which means selling them only clears their debts and doesn't make them any real money. May be they mortgaged them in 1975 like many "friends".?
