this case really pissed me off.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/68106/2.ashx.. so, let's get together and lobby to make non-reporting a felony in all fifty states.
it's bullshit that they continue to get away with it and our children continue to get raped as a result.

since the wtbts isn't readily accepted in certain countries or territories, i wonder if this is one of the reasons they joined the un.
you know, to negotiate their acceptance or perhaps to promote stopping persecution in certain countries.. your thoughts please.. dy

Thanks for checking that out. I'm with you - I'm sure they were glad to have the clout of being an NGO to expand their market base further their cause in other countries through entities such as the European Court of Human Rights. It's got to be bugging them to no longer be affiliated with the UN.

i am back from underground ... i have more to tell you than you can imagine ...
i cannot use my old screen handle for now, but we are working on that, and it will be restored as soon as simon and i can get it done.
so, simon has allowed me to create a new screen name for the time being.
Jim,
I applaud your desire and your courage to do this for so many people whom you have never met. The WT should take a cue from you on the real meaning of "love".

....on the wt membership with the un's department of public info?
stephen bates, religious affairs correspondent.
monday october 8, 2001. the guardian the united nations is being asked to investigate why it has granted associate status to the jehovah's witnesses, the fundamentalist us-based christian sect, which regards it as the scarlet beast predicted in the book of revelation.
Good question, Gerard!
Perhaps a letter to Steven Bates at The Guardian is in order.....

Now I'm wondering, would the wts being registered with DPI as an NGO have any influence on the European Court of Human Rights to declare them as a 'known religion'?
Someone please correct me if I am wrong, however - I believe that the European Court of Human Rights is an arm of the UN itself.

my husband is half- finn.
his father (full-blood finn) drank coffee constantly, and smoked like a chimney and was an alcoholic.
he came down with type ii diabetes about 30 years back.
After a couple of cups my system is as clean as a whistle
Thank you so much for explaining why my dog's ears are so perky every morning!
*and to think he can hear it all the way from Texas! *

They should be tried by the supreme court for purgery and violation of rules and regulations that apply to the UN mandate . The evidence is enormous in favor of conviction .
I like the way you think! If this happened, however, would the UN have to be the entity that files the suit, or can us victimized citizens file?!
G-R-E-A-T idea!!!

Rumor has it that Bebu's Beans are an especially diabetes-resistant variety! I do believe I'll go grab myself another cup - (like I haven't had enough already today!!)

I guess that makes them one sick puppy!
According to my calculations, "them" indicates that there is at least more than one puppy. Therefore, if they haven't cleaned up your ummmm.... culinary expulsions..... and they think you would WANT to return to it, then they are not only a bunch of sick puppies, but they are a bunch of sick, disillusioned and completely unkempt puppies who need to be reported to the Health Department!

Willy,
There must be an old proverb somewhere: Beware of barking dog.
There is! It is on the bottom of every pair of slippers manufactured in the US!

If the borg equates us to a "barking dog"...FINE, 'cause every dog has his day, & this could be ours.
LOL! *howling at the moon while marking the calendar for the rest of the millenium*!
