Minors going door-to-door
by doublelife ini just went to the silentlambs website and there is a link to criminalcheck.com where you can find registered sex offenders by zip code.
so i typed in the zip code of the territory from my old congregation and i was surprised at how many people popped up.
there was three pages of names and on almost all of those names i recognized the street address as one that i went door-to-door on.

I know Christmas is "wrong", but for god's sakes, what's so "wrong" about New Near's day?
by african GB Member inthis time of the year is the most stressful for jw's(especially progressive jws) as they have to explain to non-jws why they don't celebrate christmas and new year's days.. i can understand the religious implications of christmas day, but what about new years?
what is so wrong about looking forward to new beginings?
was new year celebration also started by "christendom/ babylon the great"?

Wouldn't the death of three suffice?
by AK - Jeff inwhy would a so-called 'loving' god put mankind through millenia of time, untold suffering, death to billions of mankind, all over the sin of a naked lady eating an apple without permission?.
how could his need to 'fulfill justice' or whatever theological argument is presented to justify such time to pass before correction - ever equal the pain it has forced mankind to endure?.
why did he not just kill one man, one woman, and one snake-imitating fallen angel - wipe the slate - and start fresh?

Jephthah's Daughter
by cantleave ini have read somewhere that jephthah's daughter did not really go into temple service but was a victim of ritual sacrifice.
the bible says that after weeping over her virginity that the maidens would visit her annually.
how could they visit her if she was killed?.
