To JW's who believe WT is the"Truth"
by ARoarer ini have seen comments by jw's who support the notion that thier is a group of "special men" like russell that jehovah has selected to write down the "inspired" thoughts through watchtower and awake and other publications.. .
first of all, the bible tells us that god "cannot lie" and every "inspired utterances are true".
that being the case, how can the truth of god originate in lies by a man, russell who was heavily involved in the occult.?

Who's To Blame For The Child Abuse Problem?
by Englishman injust trying to get my head around this one.
with the jailing last week of a london dub paedophile, i was wondering: .
is it the religion itself that gives these perverts the feeling that they are invincible and immune from punishment when they commit these acts?

Plumbing the Depth of Watchtower Fanaticism
by metatron inthere are experiences that are difficult to put into words.
sometimes a circumstance is so out of the ordinary, it becomes.
difficult to articulate to others, to give them an accurate mental image and set of feelings corresponding with a dramatic past.

Can a Dub wife have holidays if her non-Dub hubby "instructs" her to?
by closer2fine inwasn't there an article stating that the wife of an unbeliever couldn't get in trouble with the congregation if she participated in holidays at the instruction of her husband?
(ie purchasing presents that he told her to) wasn't this because of headship rules?
where does that leave the unbelieving children?

WT & Religous Freedom vs Religous Terrorism/ Opinions?
by ARoarer ini have been reading a lot of the comments on the new childrens book released at the convention.
i must say this book turns my stomach.
you know, for years the wts has demanded thier religious freedom in the courts and won many decisions based on thier first amendment right to worship as they choose.

WTS Addresses Child Abuse - er, kind of...
by iiz2cool inmy wife, who is intent on re-activating herself as a dub since i da'd myself, went to the convention this past weekend.
she showed me this new publication entitled "learn from the great teacher", and placed great emphasis on these two pages i scanned and am posting.
it makes a poor show of telling children what to do when confronted by a child abuser.
