While the morality of this practice is at question, the legality of allowing a minor to enter a contract with a corporation should also be scrutinized. People can be df'd based on their oath of association (ie 'baptism'), even if this was established prior to an individual legally being able to enter a contractual relationship with a company. Since a lot youths enter this arrangement due to peer/parental pressure, how can they be legally held accountable for adherence to all of the rules and regulations associated with being 'one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization (WTBTS)' as the oath stipulates?

As a brother (not the jdub kind, but the 'of african descent kind') I'm not too fond of these types of generic 'black comedies', but from what I understand the movie brought to light some little known facts. The Rosa Parks thing, and also the fact that King was known for his infidelity, especially by the FBI who had a close watch on him at all times. Yo, why not expose the truth for what it is, even if these people have such a positive in the civil rights movement. Its only contraversy to those who want to uphold the pristine image even though its not entirely accurate.

Why don't JW's used the word 'Church'
by Double Edge in.
i'm curious...do the jw have something against the word church?

Exactly. According to them, the word church refers to the 'worldly' religions of christendom with their 'pagan' traditions false doctrines. The JWs want to seperate themselves from that, so, internal propaganda and rhetoric only use the word 'congregation'. However, as a few of you mentioned, 'church' is readily used when representatives are speaking to the media in order sound less heretical.
