"i have hope toward god .

over the hope of resurrection of the dead i am being

the resurrection hope draw them closer to god?

Very interesting.

one section especially was the following that i just dont understand.

To comfort these, the WTS has to once again stress the resurrection and remind the faithful that the Bible only promises this to the great crowd as a group and not to individuals. Neat way to cover all the bases.

How can it be promised to a group and not to individuals when it is individuals that make up the group.

ARE JW SISTERS ALLOWED TO CARRY COFFINS?

recently i was amazed to read in another thread that jw females are not even allowed to walk up and down the aisles counting those in attendance.

the poster said jw women literally "don't count" - a brilliant play on words.

i guess i had never thought about it before, but it got me wondering about all the behind-the-scene work jw females do, but their invisibility in the public arena.

My mothers coffin was in the hall (she was cremated), my friends coffin was in the hall and there are others.

I personally, have never seen an open coffin in a KH

I watched the show this morning..

It seems that the elders just dont care and why is it that the victim is made to feel guilty....The girl that confronted the elder "john".....she was in a state......actually shaking and quivering while confronting him..

I found that very heart wrenching.

I know there will be witnesses watching that show thinking its all lies.....how blind they are.

Kylie Minogue diagnosed with breast cancer: Australian promoter

SYDNEY, (AFP) - Australian pop star Kylie Minogue has been diagnosed with breast cancer, prompting her to cancel her current Australian tour, her touring company said.

"Frontier Touring Company ... confirmed that Kylie's tour has been postponed due to health reasons," the company said in a statement.

"Whilst at home in Melbourne with her family this week ... Kylie was diagnosed with early (stage) breast cancer," the statement said.

"She will undergo immediate treatment and consequently her Australian tour will not be able to proceed as planned."

Minogue was said to be disappointed at having to postpone the shows.

"I was so looking forward to bringing the Showgirl tour to Australian audiences and am sorry to have to disappoint my fans," she was quoted as saying in the statement.

"Nevertheless hopefully all will work out fine and I'll be back with you all again soon."

Minogue had been due to arrive in Sydney from Melbourne on Tuesday to officially begin the Australian leg of her tour which began in Britain.

Accompanying her is her French beau, Olivier Martinez, who has been staying with her and her family in Melbourne, the Daily Telegraph reported.

Minogue's promoter Michael Gudinski wished her a speedy recovery and said all her fans would be praying for her.

"I'm hoping and praying because the doctor found it so early that everything will be OK," he told the Seven Network.

"Let's just give her time to go through what she's going through and we'll worry about all that in the future.

"Our thoughts, and I'm sure all the legions of Kylie's fans, will be with her all the way."

Minogue, who rose to fame in the 1980s as an actor in the popular soap opera Neighbours and later launched a pop career, was due to play six shows in Sydney from Thursday.

The Showgirl Tour was also scheduled to tour Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth over the next month
