hot topic on topix seems to be candace conti settlement.
but it's all quiet here.
are you guys aware that your hero, who was not in it for the money but to change policies, settled without changing anything?
just because someone molests a younger person once (as in the instance you mention) does not automatically mean they become a pedophile or predator.
Nitty, would you make these same comments if the people involved were Catholic Priests? Or are you only defending the Watchtower?
You don't appear objective to me. Would you defend Catholic Priests this same way?
well, i have been lurking on this site for several months and i recently decided to join as a member.
i have made several observations and would like to make a few comments.. first, i am perplexed by the attitude of many on this site that are either former or active (but apostate) jws.
they seem to have a strong hatred for the wts and also for rank and file jws.
Heisenberg said:
Most Christian religions accept that you can commit fornication, adultery, homosexuality, etc and remain a Christian even without repentance. It is accepted.
While there are some that might say this, "most" is probably an overgeneralization. In many Christian groups, especially the more conservative groups, this is absolutely untrue. Saying "It is accepted" is wrong. Please remind yourself that just because the Watchtower says something doesn't make it true.
i took up cycing a couple of months ago just to get fitter and lose a bit of excess weight.. i bought a second-hand hybrid bike (weighs only slightly less than a truck) and fitted road tyres.
four or five times a week i will go for a ride after work for an hour or so.
i am fortunate enough to live in rural north england surrounded by limitless quiet roads.
Hi Cofty,
She Mrs. Cofty would need to be able to give up some control. Can't steer or brake. Of course, if she's in the front then she gets all control.

Here we are in Eastern Oregon on our tandem. 7 am. The river was smooth as glass. Beautiful day.

I seldom post. Been lurking since the beginning. I ride about 2,500 miles per year. I live in the Pacific NW region of the US.
Have done tours in the Republic of ireland, France, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Italy and parts of the US.
If I knew how to post a picture I'd show my wife & I on our tandem.

i keep crossing paths with people who are in recovery, that is, recovering from drug and alcohol addiction.
these folks regularly attend alcoholics anonymous and narcotics anonymous meetings and are all somewhere in the process of working the 12 steps of recovery.
the organization denies affiliation with any legal entity; a blatant deception, a lie they tell new ones and each other at each and every meeting.
Bill W. was one of the co-founders of AA.
I've known several who are in AA. They certainly don't annoy me. Many have found success there. I'm sure it's not for everyone, but if it worls for some, I think it's a good thing.
apologies if this has been discussed before, or is in the wrong forum, but i could really do with some advice.
two years ago i met the love of my life; someone i regard as my soulmate.
he is an active jw and i am a practising church of england person.
CuriousUK -
Sorry if this has been brought up already - I haven't read all of the posts.
If you have children with this man and one of them needs a blood transfusion, are you prepared to refuse one? It could mean the child's life, or your life if it is you.
That, to me, is a deal breaker.
