The arab god... singular or plural
by Elsewhere ini was looking around on the arabnews.com web site and i found the following "question from a reader".... the person writing the answer sounds a lot like a jw... "oh no... just because god refers to himself in the plural does not mean he really is.
sadly, the very next qfr is where someone is wondering if it is ok to raise his hands while saying a prayer.
i'm reminded of the legalistic bs of the organization.

by ball. ini just went round the corner for a breakfast in the local cafe, and as i was about to go in, there was a jw, one of my best mates, just coming out.
i just stood there and looked at him in amazement, as i haven't seen him in 10 years and he had changed a lot.

Before You Bequeath Your Property To "The Society"..
by Englishman in..be aware that it could be auctioned to the highest bidder.. the pic is of the house that the assistant local po lived at until his death some weeks ago.
like many witnesses, he decided to name the watchtower society as the sole beneficiary of his will.
astonishingly, the house has been put up for auction instead of being put on the market via an estate agency.. this means of disposal ensures a quick sale to a cash buyer with a minimum of delay.

Rights of Plant life - Now!
by Amazing1914 inits time we stop persecuting plant, by george!
plants have feelings too, only unlike dogs and cats, they cannot even growl, moan or whimper!
why for that matter, a poor helpless little plant can't even run away in fear ... they are forced to stand there as wicked humans - probably capitalists - pluck them up from their roots just to eat them - yuck!

the "annointed" witnesses
by dustyb ini just realized that the annointed won't die off.
i mean, the original annointed will die off within the next 10 years or so, but then there are the younger people that think they are annointed, but don't fall under the rules and guidelines of an annointed person (per jw).
i personally don't believe in the annointed, but something struck my fancy at the memorial.

question: why are humans worth more than animals?
by Realist inok putting religious reasoning aside what is a rational reason why humans are viewed worth more than higher animals?
why is a human worth more than lets say a chimp, a pig or a cow?.
neurophysiological studies show that animals suffer probably just as much as humans....but similar to little children they cannot understand the pain and express it as human adults can.
