I didn't know the Norwegian government was retarded. I can only hope that there is some real valid reason (like neglect) why the children were taken away from their parents.

One should correct (which includes to punish) bad behavior. Then ridicule and expose bad ideas that led to that behavior. You can't kill a set of amalgamated ideas as found in the tenets of a specific religion with forced coercion (which at it worst leads to bullets and guns). You kill ideas with better ideas, truer ideas, because the search for truth leads to things like science, which in turn leads to tangible results. Something which bad (false) ideas cannot achieve.

Questions for Serena Williams
by Esse quam videri inbeing as serena williams shows outstanding abilities and skills at that which she exerts herself in, such as tennis, it would seems reasonable that serena williams has the same high level of abilities in all of her worthwhile endeavors.
perhaps she has this level of abilities in her journey as one of jehovah's witnesses.
would it not be reasonable that those who need greater clarification and understanding of certain bible subjects, to make contact with serena and ask her such questions?.

Dear Serena,
Why do you prefer the Wilson Blade 104 to something comparable like the Head radical microgel series? As a Jehovah's Witness I mean.

berrygerry summed it up: "(Brazen conduct is anything not covered by anything else.)"
After she's been warned its pretty much up to the elders discretion.
My unwanted advice is as follows:
1. The sister should state to the elders that she will not marry the young man.
2. Continue to date the man of her choice privately while feigning a broken heart.
3. Start to fade. When confronted by the elders she should claim that she is depressed because of the breakup and the pressures of work/study/whatever.
4. When her fade is complete, switch congregations.
5. Finally marry her beau and live happily ever after, or discover after a couple of years that he was not the droid she was looking for.

Thanks GOD JW's don't have Beauty Pageants
by James Mixon ini can see it now, we are the most beautiful and smartest people in the world.. steve harvey will never be the host of another beauty pageant.
lol.
i was thinking, don't you think it's time for our society to move on from beauty pageants?.

Beauty pageants are great. I wish they would just shut up and get to the swimsuit part. After all they're just eye candy with opposable thumbs.
Was that sexist? Misogynistic? That was sort of what I was aiming for.
