ABibleStudent Robert, did you notice as to whether the Watchtower Society or the North Fremont Congregation had a New World Bible on the table when they appealed the unfavorable legal decision?

What I Saw & Heard in the Oral Argument Hearing on January 14, 2015
by ABibleStudent inim not an attorney and i could not record the hearing, so please forgive me if i make mistakes in relating what i remember of the oral argument hearing for jane doe (i.e., candace conti) versus the watchtower bible & tract society on january 14, 2015 and the length of this post.. i arrived at the civic center/union plaza in san francisco, ca about 7:30. the area is very nice with a few homeless people sleeping in the park across from the courthouse.
it took me about 10 minutes to find the clerks office for the court on the first floor, which opened at 8:00.. once the clerks office opened, the two clerks who i talked with were very polite and helpful.
the arguments for jane doe (i.e., candace conti) versus the watchtower bible & tract society were scheduled 5th out of (i think) 8. while i was in the office a cameraman and another person for nbc arrived asking about the hearing for candace contis case.. the courtroom for the 1st appellate court is on the 4th floor and takes up most of that floor.

I found this point interesting. A little check up to make sure the paying of dues is being reviewed annually.
*** g74 11/8 p. 13 ***Jehovah’s witnesses too have expenses to meet in order to maintain their places of worship. But they sponsor no gambling, hold no bazaars, pass no collection plates, have no paying of dues. Contributions are all voluntary and unsolicited.

New Article in JW.ORG "Should Christians Drink Tea?"
by EdenOne inshould christians drink tea?.
would you like a cup of tea?.
this seemingly innocent question has been asked countless times, and is regarded as a gesture of courtesy and hospitability in many parts of the world, in both eastern and western culture.

Michelle Rodriguez reveals to Milla Jovovich for Interview Magazine that she is a very spiritual person. But says the thing that scarred her the most was the religion she was raised in.
“Sometimes I wake up in awe that I’m alive. I can’t get over that part, so I guess it makes me kind of like an existentialist. I’m always researching ancient religions, and I was also raised Jehovah’s Witness, so that kind of scarred me for life.”

Conti Appeal Preview - Oral Argument Jan 14
by Chaserious inwith hopefully a good deal of interest here in the conti appeal tomorrow (or later today, depending on where you are), i thought that on my ride home from work tonight i'd preview what to expect and what i think the key issues are for any who are interested.
i have had a busy few weeks and haven't had time to read everything, but i had some time to look at the appeal briefs during my work commute the past couple days.
it'll be interesting to see what develops out of the network news coverage of this case.

Interesting comment you made on page 2 Nitty-Gritty
The thing is it is not up to elders (or at least it isn't the law everywhere) to report a crime such as child molestation to the authorities unless they have personally been a witness to it, or have been specifically asked to do so by the victim and/or parents who will then have to accompany them. It is up to the victim or victim and/or parents. They are the ones who have to do the reporting.
You joined up and this is your first comment. Welcome to the board and tell us a bit about yourself.

How to reply to- "just wait on Jehovah".
by runForever inall you have to say is "who says jehovah is not using me right now?
" something to that effect.. if they say you are just a low-life nobody just point out amos nipper of figs.
and if they say "do you think you're a prophet?

There is no Scriptural requirement to "wait on Jehovah". Evidently these words do not appear in the Bible.

Keep in mind that these statistics are for the JW service year than ran from 1 October 2013 to 30 September 2014, which was just two days before the commencement of the second century of living in the last days (2 October 2014).
