by FadeToBlack incan anybody here from australia fill me in on this guy?

by leavingwt inthis headline reminds me of what ian malcolm said in the film, jurassic park.
"your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.".
the south korean foundation said it would transfer technology to the russian university, which has already been involved in joint research with japanese scientists to bring a mammoth back to life..

Suicide - How many do you know within the JWs
by Lady Lee inthw wts likes to play games with their statistics.
one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?
if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.

maybe modifying them and passing them off as their own for commercial gain?
