The facts on crucifixion, stauros, and the "torture stake"
by Leolaia infinally, i will look at biblical and patristic evidence bearing on the crucifixion of jesus in particular.
we need to examine the earliest known descriptions of the kind of crucifixion adopted by the romans and the specific terms they used to refer to it.
apparently the society believes that crux still meant "stake" in the second century a.d., when tacitus composed his annals.

JWs target retirement homes
by Scully inin a recent post (http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/67537/1051937/post.ashx#1051937) new directives to congregations by the wts included: it also suggests that the owners of all local old folks homes be contacted to provide a "free weekly bible discussion" to all elderly who want to attend in the home.
this is to be a planned weekly event to increase the number of studys pioneers hold and "provide a valuable service to the community" the society expect to see bible studies go up by 25% this year.. .
well, it is nice for us to get this heads up from the brothers?, isn't it?

Cyrus: Yahweh's anointed pagan and conquering ruler
by M.J. ini wonder about the wts's strict view of all worldly governments as ultimately under satan's rulership.
in practice jws are led to take on an uncomprimising attitude of resentment and hostility toward "satanic" world governments, not mere neutrality, as they claim.
i wonder about this in light of romans 13, where world governments are said to be appointed by god, a "minister of god to you for good.

JW urban legend? Has anyone heard of a JW clone group called "The Princes"
by Check_Your_Premises ina dub i know found some info about the christadelphians.
it was quite remarekable to her that there was a group with so many ideas, so similar to the dubs.
such a reailzation is a bit of a challenge to a dub, since they spend so much time fancying how unique they are.
