If I see a homeless person on the street, I never give money to them. I do donate bi-monthly to the Tacoma Rescue Mission, a religious organization that provides meals, shelter and rehabilitation to the homeless. I also donate clothing to a local presbyterian church.

Who here gives to the homeless?
by JW83 ini'm interested in how many here give to the homeless, or any kind of charity, since that was not a part of the witness experience.
i have to admit that my heart is hard ...

Congrats! I'm so jealous. When I was a teenager, I wanted to be a forensic scientist. Too bad I fell for the "this generation will not pass away" crap. I guess its not to late, but I don't think I'd be able to afford university now.

Rape, two witnesses, DNA, and rape kit
by Fatfreek inforgive, please, if this has been asked.
my google wasn't much help.. does the society yet recognize dna, a rape kit, etc., as evidence that could supplant a "second witness" which they have always insisted on?.

I know exactly how you feel. I am still not over the way the elders treated me when I was raped. I am more emotionally damaged by my judicial meeting then by the rape itself. And I can't forgive my parents for contacting the elders in the first place. They called the elders and made sure they were at the hospital with me. One elder had the nerve to give me an awake mag. on rape at the hospital. They all made sure that I was not to be given the morning after pill, even though I really wanted it. Then a couple days later I had my judicial meeting, where I had to describe in detail exactly what happend, so the elders could determinne whether or not it was rape. F*cking sick bastards.

"the only religion that gets a bad rap"
Chicky, you are clueless. What about Muslims, Jews, Mormon's, Catholics and every other religion out there??? They all get a bad rap.

Satan
by susu812 inafter leaving the witness does anyone here believe satan exists?
if yes do you think if we "gave" satan some kind of a challenge to prove he exists would it happen?
if he is so hell-bent on proving jehovah/ witnesses wrong would he go to such great lengths to make sure ppl turn away?

I've never seen any proof that God or Satan exists. So until that happens, I can't believe in either.
Also, I think satan was made up so people have someone to blame for the sh*t they cause.
