  Which other churches come close to this vast global preaching work that Jesus spoke about? The church of Jesus later day saints is hardly known about at all, they have never called at my door, or many other people around the world. That can not be said of Jws.

  One of the biggest fallacies about the preaching work raises it's ugly head once again.

  Go and ask the population of China, the Indian sub-continent, North Africa and the Middle East how many Witnesses have knocked on their door or even seen a cart in the market place?

  #1 protein functional redundancycomparing the sequences of amino acids in ubiquitous proteins confirms the relationship between all living things.. #2 dna functional redundancycomparison of the dna that codes for the amino acids of ubiquitous proteins predicts the tree of life with an astonishing degree of accuracy.. #3 ervsendogenous retroviruses that infected our ancestors are found in the same place of the genome of our closest primate cousins.

  #4 smelly geneshundreds of broken genes that used to code for olfactory receptors in our ancestors are still found in our genome.. #5 vitamin cwhy humans can no longer make their own vitamin c and what that tells us about our species' history.. #6 human chromosome 2our second biggest chromosome is made up of two of our ancestors' genes stuck end-to-end.. #7 human egg yolk genehumans and our primate cousins have the genes for making vitellogenin and they are all broken in the same way.

  #8 jumping genesbits of parasitic code called alu elements prove our common ancestry with primates.

  I know why they picked Holland for this. None of the elders in the UK look like that. Beer bellies and dodgy suits most of them.

  over on the silentlambs facebook site is a copy of a document that purports to be an order by the service depart to destroy files relating to child molestation cases: https://www.facebook.com/silentlambs/photos/a.571978169529812.1073741826.144752662252367/970409503020008/?type=3&theater.

  have any of you seen this?

  is this a real document or bogus?.

  Have you seen the thread about the campaign started by Katie Kitten / Louise Goode which talks about this destruction of documents and how to stop this from happening . The thought seems to be that documents that Justice Goddard wants keeping MAY be destroyed in light of the events in Wales and Australia Jan .

  As I have stated elsewhere this is a far more productive and pertinent effort than spinning the yearly admin letter sent to BOEs as some kind of systematic cover up of child abuse. There are plenty of concerns about the actual processes employed without having to make things up.

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am not a jehovah's witness, never have been.

  i am a former christian (mostly baptist background) and have been an atheist since 1999. .

  my question is this - are there any books (not official watch tower publications) published by any jw's?

  Tony (Antony) Byatt was a Witness from Worcestershire (UK) who wrote at least one apologist publication. He also ran a small mail order service for Witness friendly books. He died some time ago but was an intelligent, educated and scholarly person. He contributed regularly to the publications in the 70s and 80s.

  We're Ashya Kings parents right?

  do you remember the case?

  jehovers witness parents did a runner without telling the medical staff caring for their seriously ill child and took him to receive proton therapy in praque as this treatment was not available in the u.k.. first most importantly the good news, the boy was declared cancer free last march.. anyway i am sure at the time this issue would have created a lot of heated debate on the forum, as it was a case that created a media frenzy, with the parents and their jehovers witness religious beliefs being heavily critizised .

  however as i followed the case i couldn't help but admire the parents, as i felt they would have acted indepentedly of both the jehovers witness organisation and the u.k medical advice, having in my opinion seriously thought the matter through, and then doing they thought was the best way for treatment.. so if you remember the case my questions are:-.

  Not as far as I know. I don't think even the WTS would risk any sanctions getting out and making the news...

  which ever country you come from, if you are a football fan you know of the f.a cup.

  because the f.a cup is the oldest and most prestigious cup competition in the world.

  or at least that's the way it was when i was a kid.. now this wonderful competition has been cheapened to a non event.

  The Beeb have done some great coverage this season of the non league teams being shown live look at Salford City FC's run having 2 matches televised live to the nation, that would never have happened even a few years ago!

  Hence why the magic of rounds 3-5 remains for me. The Beeb and BTSport have done a good job there.
