The Medium of "Truth"
by jschwehm in"that is why i believe it is essential to view bible truths as existing independently of the wts, though the wts publications continue to attach themselves to core bible teachings in such a way as to depict themselves as the medium of such teachings, rather than the bible.".
the comment above is very interesting.
if i understand correctly this is something that greg stafford has written.

What if everyone was a perfect JW?????
by jschwehm ini was reading a post and someone said that you need to evaluate a religion based on what it would be like if everyone followed the rules of that religion perfectly.
well, over on randy's site at www.freeminds.org, he has a link to the armageddon okies.
the following is leroy's great dream which is taken from the armageddon okies site.

JWs' Letter to Dateline
by jschwehm ini just got a copy of the society's letter to dateline as to why they would not agree to an on-camera interview.. they said that since dateline told them that most of the people that they were interviewing considered themselves active jws, that for the headquarters to make a statement that it would make it appear as though "brother" was speaking out against "brother".
and that a nationally televised program was not the appropriate forum for them to work out their differences.
(this is interesting since the pandelos and barb have been dfed, haven't they?).

PalTalk JWs Touch about Pedophile Topic
by jschwehm ini just got bounced from the jw chat room on paltalk for discussing the pedophile issue.
it seems that the jws can only talk about this problem occurring in other churches (they were talking about the catholic's scandal) but when their religious organization is involved...watch out!.

JWs' Message to the World
by jschwehm inthe talk about what the jws did or did not do to help people in the disaster is very interesting.
frankly, i would hope in many ways that they would not help since their mode of operation is to use tragedies like that to recruit people into their group.
my own mother was recruited into the jws after her mother passed away.
