Jehovah's Witnesses in Crisis. My initial observations.
by candidlynuts ini recieved my copy today and have only spent an hour or so in looking it over.. i want to commend barbara anderson and those who assisted her , this is very well written and compelling.
if you haven't ordered a copy yet, i encourage you to do so.. (forgive me if i word this badly my awake college education might show ) my initial reaction to what i've been reading is how the watchtower society lawyers, headquarters etc does not apper to be any kind of organization led by god.
it appears to be a business trying to protect it's treasures stored upon the earth.

The Bible is an organizational book and belongs to the...organization.
by candidlynuts ini remember going out in service using the truth book .
" the truth that leads to everlasting life".
in its final couple of years, i remember how the catholic church's attempts to control what people read was part of our presentation.

by candidlynuts inhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070714/ap_on_re_us/church_abuse.
i apologize if this is a duplicate post.
i think the part where they were ordered to hand over confidential files is big news.

Quit looking at my butt!!!!!!
by candidlynuts inya know those days when you know you should have stayed in bed?.
i had to go to the grocery store, as i was walking in i noticed a man and a woman behind me and both were looking at my butt.. it's a nice butt but usually doesnt get much attention.
i resisted the urge to brush the back of my pants off till they were inside and out of sight... i did and didnt feel anything... later on in the store i got that " feeling" that somene was behind me.. turned around and a woman was looking at my butt.

Dateline predators will NOT be prosecuted
by candidlynuts intexas da won't prosecute any pedophiles nabbed in nbc 'predator' showthursday, june 28, 2007. .
murphy, texas a sting in which police teamed up with "dateline nbc" to catch online pedophiles was supposed to send a flinty-eyed, texas-style warning about this dallas suburb: don't mess with murphy.. instead, it has turned into a fiasco.. one of the 25 men caught in the sting a prosecutor from a neighboring county committed suicide when police came to arrest him.
the murphy city manager who approved the operation lost his job in the ensuing furor.. and the district attorney is refusing to prosecute any of the men, saying many of the cases were tainted by the involvement of amateurs.. "certainly these people should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, but the fact that this was all done for television cameras raises some questions," said mayor bret baldwin.. it is the first time in nine "dateline nbc: to catch a predator" stings across the country in the past year and a half that prosecutors did not pursue charges.. "dateline" has made prime-time entertainment out of contacting would-be child molesters over the internet, luring them to a meeting place, and videotaping their humiliating confrontations with reporter chris hansen.. (story continues below).

fanciful men who are frequently predicting the time of the end,
by candidlynuts inhas this article been posted yet?
isaac newton 300 years ago predicting the worlds end at 2060 or there about.. what this does for me is add weight to the idea that every generation has looked for the end in their time.
the jw's are just more in a long line of end timers.
