I`m appalled that polls taken by the media in todays papers are in favour of the clergy or elders not divulging crimes to the authaurities when there made aware of it,confessionals etc.
by smiddy inits 4:45 pm here in victoria most of the day gone and i have checked to see how this poll was going in todays papers.
should preists ( and ministers of other religions ) {given}report to police crimes revealed in the confessional ?
note what`s in brackets are my words ,and the article implies it is not only the catholic religion this applies to but all oganizations .. and at this late hour of the day 51% are in favour of religion not divulging this information while 49% are in favour of the clergy informing the police of a crime committed.. my veiw is : if a preist,elder,pastor or other so called man of the cloth has information of a crime committed and does not inform the police then they are accomplices to the crime and should be held accountable,and if the perpetrator commits further crimes then the preist,etc.

Shunning is easy
by Paralipomenon inupon reflection over the past 5 years of being out, i've had a lot of time to consider my time as a witness as well as come to terms with my parents shunning us.. that was the biggest shock for me.
contrary to most experiences i've read, my childhood, while focused on witness matters was still pretty happy.
our family always seemed to fall on "family first, religion second".

The "cause" of homosexuality (From JWtalk) LOL
by yourmomma inif any of you can read jwtalk check out this thread for a good laugh: http://www.jwtalk.net/forum/read.php?10,118252.
for me the best "cause" was soy, yes soy apparantly turns people into homosexuals, lmao!.
what would really be funny is if someone who has an account could post some more insane stuff like that, like "playing with smurfs or my little pony causes homosexuality" or "eating too many cheese curls".lol.

Worldwide Church of God collapse
by cog_survivor inon my introduction post a few people expressed interest in how the worldwide church of god (wwcg) imploded.
i think maybe in hopes something similar will happen with the jws.
i think the jws will also eventually experience a meltdown but probably not in the same way since the power structure was a bit different.

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!.
