Wikipedia sources
by J. Hofer ina few days ago i started editing a few articles on jehovah's witnesses in the german wikipedia, mostly to clarify some things about the disfellowshipping practise.
while my - carefully worded - changes were accepted so far i noticed the following problem:.
wikipedia needs secondary sources, preferrably scientific ones.

FSM: Austrian authorities accept colander as religious headgear
by J. Hofer inhttp://translate.google.at/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=utf-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3a%2f%2fderstandard.at%2f1308681039222%2foesterreichs-behoerden-nudelsieb-als-religioese-kopfbedeckung-in-fuehrerschein-genehmigt.
this is google-translated from german.... a "pastafarian" insisted in having his license picture shot with a colander on his head.
it's allowed (for muslims for example) to have ones head covered for legal documents if it is a religious practise.

what is "false belief"

"belief" is something you cannot prove.
as soon as you can prove it, it's no longer belief, but knowledge.

by J. Hofer inafter a few beers and a bottle of french wine (2007 cote du rhone) i'm having myself some "ron zacapa centenario solera reserva".

The urge to convert people
by J. Hofer inwhere does the urge to convert people to ones own view come from?.
i grew up a jehovah's witness and jehovah's witnesses are always right.
that's where i learned to always be right and it took me years to realize that i could also "agree to disagree", although i still often forget about this.
