For JW Bible Students And Those Wondering If It's "Really The Truth"?
by rainbow2003 inalthough cbs, dateline nbc etc have also correctly documented the child molestation situation involving the watchtower society (wts) over jehovah's witnesses (jws), this, which is also shocking, is to even better inform the general public including medical personnel, jws themselves and persons studying bible subjects with them.
your sharing copies of this will can help save many lives even as others have already told us.
christmas: the wts teaches that christ was likely born about october 2, so why ignore that this means that he must have been conceived 9 months before, meaning in late december.

Like everyone else, Crisis of Conscience -- Ray Franz
Animal Farm - George Orwell
1984 -- George Orwell (eerie similarities to JWs)
Sophies World -- can't remember the name -- great book, after I read it, I ended up minoring in philosophy in college
Aboke Girls -- about the LRA atrocities in Uganda (difficult to read)
I love to read, these are just a few that pop to mind right off the bat.

I appreciate the posts, but I still don't understand what the deal with Jaracz is. Everyone who mentions him does so with great vehemence. Is there a reason? And who is Don Adams? Don't remember him either. I do recognize George Couch, from what I heard he was a crotchety old bastard in the 70s!

This is me, most of it is right on. esp part about erotic films :)
Here's what your music says about your personality! Your music preferences have been broken down into four categories. Detailed explanations are below. You can also read answers to common questions.
5 % enjoys reflective and complex music 33 % enjoys edgy and aggressive music 13 % enjoys fun and simple music 89 % enjoys energetic and upbeat music These dimensions are relatively independent, which means that you can be high on one dimension and low on others, or high on all of them, or low on all of them, etc.
Your score will tell you whether you are high or low on each dimension. The characteristics associated with high or low scorers on each dimensions are described below. If you are especially high or low on a dimension, these descriptions should be particularly characteristic of you. If you fall somewhere in the middle, the descriptions probably characterize you less well. For example, if you have a moderate score on the reflective and complex music dimension then you would probably be quite high in openness to new experiences, but not as open to new experiences as a person with a high score on the reflective and complex music dimension.
The feedback is based on the responses of thousands of people tested in our research. Obviously, we can only draw generalizations so it is quite likely that some aspects of the feedback will fit you better than others and it is even possible that none of it will fit you very well.
