  Angus Robertson, a former Witness "elder" from an undisclosed town in Hampshire, who was present at the meeting with police, told The Independent: "The way scripture is being used to bully people must be challenged.“If a religion was preaching that blacks or gays were mentally diseased there would understandable outrage."

  What do you think? Should chimpanzees be granted 'personhood'?

  there's a current court case in ny which is hearing that question right now.

  the precise issue is the continued captivity of two chimpanzees, (leo and hercules, names bestowed by humans) in a medical research laboratory at stony brook university.. i suggest that the application has some merit.

  are not all of us "animals?

  Is There a Liar in London Bethel????

  it's come to my attention - via someone who attended mark sanderson's televised talk to the u.k - that an elder's wife was upset at a blatant lie by a bethelite speaker, prior to mr. sanderson making an appearance.. it seems that the "supporting act" from mill hill - mr. paul gillies - informed the nationwide audience that the britain branch was waiting for planning permission for the new branch, and would provide updates when news came in.. it turns out that mr. gillies was lying, in order to let the governing body member get the prolonged applause later, for announcing that the permission had been given the day before!.

  naughty mr.

  gillies!!

  Paul Gillies has been disingenuous on numerous occasions, notably with regard to shunning disfellowshipped family members being a "personal choice". Lying stunt!!!

  in 1986, peter davies was on holiday in kenya after graduating from louisiana state university .. .

  on a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air.

  the elephant seemed distressed, so peter approached it very carefully.

  i am seriously considering disassociating myself.

  i want to do this because i no longer consider myself one of jehovah's witnesses.
