Your View On Capital Punishment
by Dutchie inwe all know the bible's view on capital punishment.
in fact, in the 1969 edition of aid to bible understanding, the author notes the following: .
"the value of life is considered so sacred by god that the blood of a murdered person is viewed by him as defiling the earth and such defilement can be cleansed only by shedding the blood of the murdered.

Slightly changing doctrine in WT Aug 1, 2002,p13?
by jwsons infrom wt aug 1, 2002 page 13 quote:.
representing the royal priesthood are appointed elders, who serve in position of resposibility in congregations of jehovah 's people around the earth" (paragraph 18, page 13).
by using the term "representing" do they try to change the heavenly hope in the future ?

Congrats to my bro-in-law...the graduate
by ashitaka inmy brother-in-law is graduating today, and i just wanted to tell you guys how proud i am of him.
he's overcome learning disabilities to be one of the top in his class.
he was on the honor roll the entire year, and he stood up for himself when it came time to decide between the whims of his parents and his personal honor.. he dealt with emotional and physical abuse from his parents.

Clearing Things Up
by mindfield inno, this isn't another childish photoshop prank.. in the past day(s), probably many of you have noticed the facility that i had to lash out unnecessarily at other people.
i've insulted people who came to support me, i've embarassed myself, gone into arguments that i couldn't win, made a pretty flagrant face-about, and generally, made an ass of myself.
and for that i'm sorry.. to tell the truth, the last day (s) has/ve been a nightmare of sorts.

A DARK DAY INDEED
by Incense_and_Peppermints inwhen we put the fellings and whims of a few disgruntled "active" jehovah's witnesses who come to these boards before the intense feelings, thoughtful commentary or adult playfulness of the majority of posters here - ex witnesses, so-called apostates, etc.
don't call me jaded or an advocate of anarchy or harm to my fellow man just because i believe in freedom of expression.
i am a good kind loving person!

Refiner's Fire and my presumptuous post...

it turned out that he was only joking around and they are, in fact, good friends.
silly old me.

Sometimes I Am Ashamed
by Dutchie indoes every issue of morality have to be compared with the thinking and teaching of jehovahs witnesses?
simply because you are no longer jehovahs witnesses does that mean that you flaunt all moral authority and engaged in any perverted pleasure that you have a mind to?
because your morality is no longer legislated by a pseudo religious organization does that give you license to engage in all acts of "immorality" and refer to it "as just having fun.
