  Ferguson Shooting (Is my thinking on this all wrong.......)

  by out4good3 in

  i think everyone here can agree that walking down the street, even in the middle of the street, is not cause for having a clip emptied in your ass......... i can understand how the black community would be outraged by the injustice of seeing another black man dead in the street at the hands of the police under mysterious circumstances....... i hope that i'm not succumbing to the attempts to assinate the already well impuned character of the dead man...... however.

  i can't help but think that this could all have been avoided by exercising the proper discretion with fore-knowledge of the disadvantages people of color have when they are dealing with law enforcement in the united states.

  it is not as if this disadvantage has only since recently came to light.

  If you have gotten this far on this thread, congrats. It came out today that the person walking with the giant who was shot dead and the one who had stirred up all the controversy with his "the cop shot him while he was surrendering" has an outstanding warrant for filing a false police report on a previous occasson. Hmmmm, seems as if it all comes out eventually. People love to jump to conclusions. Has to be racist.

  Did you hear about the woman killed with a "starter" pistol?

  Police think it may be race related!

  when you were a witness, what did you do with your old watchtower (public/ study versions) and awake magazines?

  i know for some throwing away a magazine is comparable to burning a quran.

  i never threw them out!

  When I stopped worshipping them I filled the pickup truck full of them and dumped them at the landfill. It was so liberating.

  Pedophile Elder Is Harassing Victims His Victims, What Can they do?

  by BucketShopBill in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i have proof the elder molested two victims, can i make brochures and blanket his home and neighbors with his confession?

  he lives in a mexican area (gang bangers who hate chomos) with a high amount of hispanic families, will this help expose him?

  the elders have warned me to keep my mouth shut about his pedophila but this pedophile keeps hanging around his victims and think's because he was saved by the statue of limitations, he's home free.

  If you want legal action against you for outing him in a print campaign go ahead. I assume there was no conviction or legal establishment of his guilt. If not then you are treading on some very shaky ground legally. I would warm the victims to keep thier distance and confidentially warn others who would appreciate it. Mothers talk ya know. Let them know the elders threatened you so they know how protected they really are and ask them to hold your name in confidence. Of course if the victiims dont want their identitys known keep thier confidence!

  by NoMoreHustle in

  1. forum
  2. tech-support

  in my 20 years of being in this cult i was always struck at how alot of ones in my immediate hall never really talked to me or tried to get to know me.

  i know it is a two way street & i always tried to rbe nice & polite to everyone.

  i am shy person but i went beyond what i was comfortable with in trying to be likeable!.

  If you stay close to the "spiritual" people, in other words "popular" ones you have your ticket stamped for paradise. Plus its impossible to be as good as they say you should be and by treating people as inferior they can feel superior and thus more holy. Twits.

  If you don't believe in God, Jesus, and everything in the Bible, you are willfully ignorant.

  "i absolutely 100% believe in god, jesus christ and everything recorded in the bible.. the reason why is because of the overwhelming amount of evidence.. there is so much evidence that it has taken me years to examine what has cemented my own convictions.".

  There is always one dissenting voice in the wilderness. I loved his schtick the first 10 thousand times but grew tired of it. I think he must have too. Depression and addiction are the real story here. Even with all his millions and all his professional help he was one episode away from ending his pain. So sorry to know he had suffered so much. If anyone is thinking there is no way out, please talk to someone now. You can defeat this.

  Father denies children inheritance unless they quit Jehovah's Witnesses

  an article in the sydney morning herald:.

  http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/father-denies-children-inheritance-unless-they-quit-jehovahs-witnesses-and-become-catholics-20140810-102egl.html#ixzz39yziuuvf.

  "from beyond the grave, father-of-four patrick carroll continued a five-decade crusade to steer his children away from being active jehovah's witnesses and into catholicism.. mr carroll wrote into his will that his adult children were not to receive any inheritance unless they met two conditions: attend his funeral and become catholics within three months of his death.. mr carroll died in april 2012. his children attended the funeral but they did not become catholics and challenged the condition in the nsw supreme court in a bid to still receive their share of his estate.. but justice francois kunc last week ruled that mr carroll was entitled to place such conditions on his will.. the court heard that mr carroll's motivation was not so much about imposing his own beliefs but rather the fact he never approved of his children becoming jehovah's witness.. the court heard that mr carroll did not raise his children as catholics, neither he or they had attended church services when they were young and he did not enroll them in catholic schools.. but when he split from their mother lillian in 1959 she became a jehovah's witness and over the next decade the couple's four children, robyn, paulene, anthony and susan, were baptised as jehovah's witnesses.. mr carroll never approved of "their adherence to that faith", the court heard.. "[lillian's] conversion to that faith enraged mr carroll, who for the rest of his life continued to express his very strong objections to lillian's and the children's member of that faith," justice kunc said in his judgement.. the court was told that all four of his children remain active members of their congregation.. in his will, written in december 2011, four months before he died, mr carroll left more than a third of his estate to his four children "dependent upon them becoming baptised into the catholic church within a period of three months from the date of my death and such gifts are also subject to and dependent my children attending my funeral.".

  The reality must be that he knew they would NEVER change religions and this was the best way to disenherit them. Perhaps he thought it might break the hold on one of them at least, who knows? I am certain he was making sure they wouldn't get anything and would have to realize it was due to their choice not his. Smat guy!
