About 25 yrs ago, Walter Gobitas served the circuit that I was in as a kid--he was kin to the Gobitas' that were involved in the famous flag salute case that went before the Supreme Court. Anyone know if he is still in the circuit work or of his whereabouts? Just curious...

Well, I do think you will see a lot of changes in upcoming years in the org, and yes I agree we are living in exciting times. I really thing the Ted Jaracz/Max Larson hardline wing of the org is aging rapidly and giving way to the much more liberal younger voting bloc that is now on the GB. That can only be good, in my humble opinion.

It really doesn't matter if it 'sounds right'--. Neither you or I were there--we don't know for a certainty what happened. Why pass judgment and not know all the facts? You certainly have the right to draw any conclusion that you want as a free moral agent, but that doesn't mean you're right...

Yea, that's it...Let's attack the people that are in business to produce more energy that we need to continue to expand our economy. Also, let's attack all the individual Americans, especially senior citizens, and retirement systems that OWN the stock in Exxon, Chevron, BP, etc...that depend on the dividends on the stock that they own to pay their monthly bills and for their medicines..etc...Keep it up, democrat party, keep it up....

JWS are businessmen who exploited Religion to create an Empire
by Homerovah the Almighty injehovah's witnesses are businessmen who exploited religion to create an empire or a kingdom of their own design true or false.. complete with servitude slaves and the laws to keep them in line.. after just listening to some of da judge rutherford speeches he certainly was a narcissistic opportunist that wanted it all.
and its not too easy to understand why a lot of people fell for his tritely bullshit, what a charismatic salesman.. you can really see how he was intensionally was trying to build a kingdom around himself with himself sitting of course at the steering wheel.. in modern terms we would call a person like this a power junkie out of control .
its apparent i suppose he did finally get the power and wealth that he desired, unfortunately at the cost of the love and respect of his family.. and its unfortunate too that this disingenuous character's legacy still remains and maintains itself in the wts.

Can being gay live in harmony with being a christian?
by digderidoo ini have looked at the thread about gay marriages in california and thought about asking this question there, but instead of hi-jacking that one i thought i would ask it here.
there seems to be quite a few gay people on this site and i wonder how many class themselves as christian?
if so, can being gay live in harmony with being a christian?.

Not as I interpret the bible. But, as On The Way Out said, none of us can judge anyone individually on the matter. Only the Supreme Being can.

Hello everyone! New here. Born into it....ugh.
by Lady Zombie inwhere to start?.
i thought about typing out a nutshelled life history but changed my mind.
suffice it to say, i was born into "the truth," attempted suicide at 14, "lost my faith" at this time, beat into submission into carrying on as usual, endured a horrible marriage and equally horrible divorce, and am more or less still in it (appearances only!

Lady Zombie,
Welcome to the board. You tell an interesting story. Actually, sounds like you had a pretty liberal upbringing compared to a lot of us(that were never allowed to pursue higher education). Look forward to hearing more from you.
