Roma (gypsy) becoming JWs
by InquiryMan inin eastern europe, a significant portion of jw are roma.. i came across this paper describing the conversion of a family in slovakia and their religious lives etc... quite interesting..... http://revacern.eu/exchange-programme/ep-paper%20hrustic.pdf.
obviously, there is a problem with prejudice from non roma jw vs roma jws,.
since the society has published a video entitled our romani brothers to conteract this.... (if i remember correctly) .

Why get "personal" when discussing a topic?
by Terry intrading insults happens among kids all the time.. intellectual development hasn't progressed to the point where they can present contrary ideas and opinions with persuasive appeal to reasons, facts and logic.. "i know you are; but what am i?".
"your momma's so fat....".
so, they fall back on childish mocking, provocation and personal attack.. as we grow older and have more education and sophistication our minds should mature---or so you'd think!.

The Emphatic Diaglott, still being published by the WTB&TS for the benefit of ... NOT JWs but for Christadelphians, Church of God Holiness and Abrahamic Faith folks.
by illoowy inthere are english speaking denominations that actively use the emphatic diaglott.
the wtb&ts is the only publisher providing new printings of this nt interlinear.
the r&f jehovah's witness doesn't use the diaglott (not even the jw version of it "kingdom interlinear translation" that supplanted it).

Advance Health Care Directive dpa-E Us PDF?
by Caminante ina friend of mine, active jw, is about to go to the states and needs an english ahcd document.
can any of you provide me a scan of the latest revision of the us edition of it?
i found an australian version that pretty much resembles the current romanian revision used here (nov. 2004), but i'm not sure it's accurate according to us laws and/or the us version of the form.

For me, it was when they kicked out Ray Franz and Ed Dunlap
by oppostate infor me, it was when they kicked out ray franz and ed dunlap.. .
i knew about the reform movement they started through ed's brother - and stupidly believed it could work.. .
the clouds were truly parted and i could see it for what it was when they were ejected for nothing but trying to ask for biblical reform.. .
