  i felt it might be a good idea to post this so that sitting on the fence jw's or jw lurkers can see that this australia jw child abuse news of 1,006 jw child molesters not being reported to police by elders is a reality that has hit mainstream news media.

  i thought this report was very well done.

  here's the link : http://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2015/07/28/australia-jehovah-witness-sex-abuse-hannigan-lklv.cnn.

  The one thing that I found astounding from the video is that tis Royal Commission session is going to go on for 2 weeks. I look forward to many comments. Some comments so far have been shocking - I am sure we will not be disappointed with what is to come.

  WT Flip-Flops on Jesus’ Inspection… Was it in 1918 or 1919?... Did the WT PASS or FAIL?

  by Alfred in

  this is utterly ridiculous.... .

  the more i research this particular subject, the more flip-flops i uncover.

  it seems the fds cant even make up their minds regarding what happened in 1918 (or should i say 1919?).

  Maybe Jesus found raw chicken being stored above an uncovered pot of soup in 1918, but when he came back in 1919, all was well?

  I am sure someone can find a scripture to support your theory.

  If this was supposed to be funny, it worked - I laughed. Not hard, but I laughed. If it wasn't a laugh, it was at least chuckled. May be it wasn't quite a chuckle, but I did smile a little.

  To Kill A Mockingbird and Prequel

  are you a fan of harper lee's "to kill a mockingbird"?

  i read the book as a child and have read it many times since.

  miss lee obviously wrote the book to entertain us, and she accomplished that.

  I purchased my Kindle version of the Watchman. Am about half way through. Forget for a minute the racism in the book, did you notice what she said about certified public accountants?

  ...Mr. Stone, except that he possessed all the necessary qualifications for a certified public accountant: He did not like people, he was quick with numbers, he had no sense of humor, and he was a butt-head.

  As a CPA, I am highly offended.

  One cult and a website. Indivisible

  GB Spirit directed writing - October 2015 Awake

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the awake oct 2015 is now up on jw org.. one article talks about young adults returning to their parents home and tries to give them some advice.. one of the highlighted comments are these magical words.

  <<remember, more important than what you do is becoming proficient at what you do.>>.

  i don't see how it's more important to become more proficient in that window washing job than working towards a more interesting and better paying job.

  That is a lie - it REALLY does matter what you do. You clearly want to be proficient, so I am not discounting this but if you do what you love and what creates value you will be natural course become proficient.
