This book has been published to tell folks how to protect themselves from identity theft, among other things. It's interesting to see what the author recommends one should do when hiring someone to work in their home, someone who can be trusted to handle and protect your most private documents and information. Scroll down and read on:

Serving Jehovah brings honor to us individually, and most importantly, HONOR TO JEHOVAH who has taught us to be honest!

did anyone on here ever have a paedophile in thier congregation?

by looloo in

if so, did it bother you that he had been reprooved and forgiven rather than reported to the police?

I didnt think we did until...

This one MS would take my sister and I down to the river look for cool rocks, agates.

I was 9 and my sister was 6. Being 9 I wasnt in the know about what was going on but all of a sudden he didnt take us any more and he moved away.

A few months back I asked my mum about what the heck happened? I said I remembered somethings about it and how a few times I would be out looking for rocks while he sat in the truck with my sister. I specifically remember once looking at the truck and my sister was looking out at me asking me for help with her eyes. Pains me to this day that I didnt think anything was going on.

Anyway, couldnt get much info out of her but I did find out nothing was ever done about him. He wasnt reproved or anything.

If I could get my hands on this guy today......there wouldn't be much left of him when I was finished.

But I understand he's a missionary in Africa now. Not too sure on this one though.

post the OT scripture that you find most disturbing.

by oompa in

i am too tired to find mine right now, but it involves men laying in wait to attack and rape sisters going to dance at a circuit assembly.

i think the purpose was to find even more wives for the tribe of benjamin.

great plan god.. ot stuff always weirded me out more than nt stuff, until i found out we have a totally fraudulant nt version, compete with the name jehovah spuriously inserted 237 times, along with many other spurious verses.

I cant remember which scripture, I think it was the one about Cora in the wilderness. Anyway, point is, it said something about putting the people in tents and pushing the swords through thier genitals as punishment. I was about 10 when I first heard this scripture and I leaned over to my Mum at the meeting and asked her what a genital is. You should have seen the look on her face. It was PRICELESS. But I honestly didnt know what it was. She just said she would tell me later. Never did though.

Once I found out what it was (I still think about that scripture when I hear the word "genital") I didnt understand why a god would allow such vile and violent acts to be committed in his name. Just stone them - dont desecrate their bodies.

So how did the folks in YOUR congregation react to this week's KM?

by Dead Man Joaquin in

you know, the one where independent bible research is forbidden, er, discouraged.. .

did anybody actually have the balls to say, "the society does not say such activities are forbidden or discouraged, just not endorsed?

" (nudge, nudge, wink, wink).

Does anybody have a scan or even some info on what this particular article says? Wife has been hiding all the juicey stuff from me and I would love to sneak in a comment or two while something like that has just been talked about at the hall.
