Australian Royal Commission question looking back
by Aussie Oz inafter all the attention the royal commission focused on the wt and the damning report that came out, has anything changed at the congregational level or to wt policy?.
i am getting the sense from what i have found that really it accomplished little more than embarrassing the wt and upsetting the jws for a while.. am i wrong in that thought?.

baptism death of infant
by Aussie Oz inthis is sad, tragic and stupid.... .
a priest in eastern europe has been accused of drowning a baby boy as he baptised him.. police are investigating father valentin for accidential homicide after witnesses at the ceremony said the priest did not cover the baby's mouth during the ritual, the sun newspaper reports.. father valentin had denied being responsible for the baby's death during the baptism in moldova.. the six-week-old baby died on the way to hospital and an autopsy found he had drowned, the baby's dad dumitru gaidau told romania's publica tv.. mr gaidau, 36, said his son was clearly in distress during the ceremony.. "he couldn't inhale, his face turned blue and he was foaming at the mouth.
he [the priest] said we should not interrupt this their ritual," he said.. "we couldn't believe it that he just put his hand over his belly and over the head and submerged him three times in the water.".

Neanderthal and Adam and Eve
by Aussie Oz inwas actually looking into this and so did a search to see what was already talked about, found the below quote on another thread after finding it on the cd for myself...stunning to me as i still thought of neanderthal man as a hairy monkey man or a complete fabrication, and here is what appears to be a twist from the wt that i never realized all my years in.. what i found most interesting was the bolded section (by me).
