by link invarious media reports indicate that the wbts often employs the services of a large number of lawyers and i have seen it suggested that some of the top legal minds amongst them are in fact jehovahs witnesses.. since a qualified and experienced lawyer will have been trained in the art of digging out and scrutinising factual information, how come these people are jw?s?
if they applied their training, to the lest extent, to an examination of "the truth" (tm) it would quickly be seen as a load of bull puckey, even by a halfwit.
it could not possibly stand up to proper scrutiny by a person trained and qualified in the legal profession.

I think we're talking about the same thing! My whole point is it doesn't matter what the individual WT lawyer believes in a religious sense. It only matters how well they can find law and apply it and/or twist it in a court of law in order to "prove" their case.
Hope that helps!

According to the bible.....what were birds made of?
by gumby inaccording to the bible, man was made from the ground.....the dirt.. do you know what "fowls" were made from?
take your pick.. from the waters.gen.1:20-21"and god said, let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
and god created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and god saw that it was good.

No, your allcaps don't upset me. It's just that usually allcaps on the internet is equated with shouting or emphasis, so I just wasn't sure if you were mad or.....?!!!
I don't know if we will really know in the hearts of the WT lawyers what they really believe, religiously. Euphemism, who has direct knowledge of WT lawyers, stands by the fact that the WT will put loyal members through law school. For all I know, there could be some kind of "string" attached whereby the WT will pay for their education (or training!) in exchange for a certain number of years of service. One way or another, I think we can both agree that practicing law is not about the beliefs of the lawyer, it is about using and/or twisting law to sway a judge and/or jury to vote in favor of their argument. Personally, I couldn't do it - but there are many who can. And obviously, the WT lawyers fall into that category.

The Popcorn Kernel vs. The Ear Canal
by imallgrowedup inhave any of you ever had your child (or know of a child) who decided to experiment with foreign objects and how they may or may not fit into bodily orifices?!
well, today, my child did!
since today is "no tv sunday," my son was bored to tears, as he is every sunday when we will not allow him to watch the television.

Thanks, Nathan! I wish I would have seen this before we went to the specialist!
Great news! My son is now popcorn-kernel free! The specialist used a suction device and something that stretches the ear canal out to remove it. It didn't work the first time around because my son was squirming, but as soon as he heard the word "surgery" he turned into a veritable statue! I was soooooo proud of him for fighting his fears and staying still and brave while the doctor removed the popcorn kernel!
God, I love that kid!!!
Thanks for all your support, all!!!
