Does anyone know which talk at the convetion contains the "vow" on not visiting internet chat rooms, etc? I was hoping to listen to it.
Thanks

there was a resolution passed - don't go on porn sites, apostate, chat rooms e.t.c and other things but i can't remember what the post (on here somewhere) said.
interesting, i just can't believe the dubs don't get suspicious after this, truth shouldn't need you to not look at other things, it should stand out.

The rez was from the last program of the last day.
As far as I'm concerned the internet part is pure fluff compared to the fact that Dubs also promised to not support ANY type of charity (no food for starving kids, no educational help for needy ones, no Good Samaritan, no love your neighbor, no housing for the poor in short NOTHING for the 99.99% of the world that is not Dub) other than the boxes in the KH.
Seem that if we make the world "better" by alleviating someone's suffering, the end is post-poned
God I hate these Farkers

You have got to be kidding me. I can't believe I still have family who believe and obey this garbage without question.

Here is the resolution(I'm not sure if this is something a witness made up or if it was something that was handed out at the DA's):

There it is. Number 7.
We will resist with all our strength the spirit of the world manifested in such things as materialism, unwholesome entertainment, overindulgence in food and alcoholic beverages, the plague of pornographic material and the curiosity or temptation that lures one into association with outsiders through internet chat rooms. Our resolve is to be no part of world as we ‘carry on worship that is clean from the standpoint of our God.’

"avoid overindulgence in food " About the only point I agree with. The rest is all kool aid. lol

I'd love to know what they consider materialism . The first christian church considered having more than you need for one day being greedy and materialistic . Right there in Acts of apostles . I think they don't want them in internet chat rooms because they know the "apostates" have a better idea of where this cult is coming from and all the mind control techniques they use . Why don't they put a chat room on their site ? That way they can moderate discussions . The web can reach millions of people at the speed of light, which beats the dub waddle in the D2D work . Those people hardly even look fit to walk a quarter mile without some sort of crippling pain that puts them right in the donut shop anyway . Most are really too stupid to even argue the faith anyway .
