    Funny, I just watch it a few days ago and wanted to post it myself, Thanx.

    I like the urban legends towards the end...Jah surly protects his people

    ...we can be so happy to have loving elders, meetings, the slave class...

    Well, I stomached about 5 minutes. I get plenty at the K Hall already.

    This guy sounds like a real, bonafide, true believer. If they were handing out Kool-Aid, I'll bet he would be jockeying for position in line to make sure he got his.

    Or.............he's a HUGE sociopath who likes performing for the dubs.

    He did RRRRROLL his "RRRR"s quite nicely. Coulda sworn I was in Barcelona for a second.

    I would also like to see a recent CO service talk, but cant find any on youtube. Does anyone know where to find one?

    Though I didn't go through the talk in its entirety, I jumped from place to place on each part. Actually, I found it on the level of entertaining. The speaker that is.

    That certainly made that public talk a little more tolerable considering the lack of real qualified seasoned speakers that are in the congregations now. Actually the speaker in the YouTube video had his material in his heart and spoke from it. You could tell. Quite unlike the many speakers now who are mechanical and textbook savvy on how they present their talks rather than letting the spirit flow from their lips.

    They are talking about running from a disaster, and finding out that their place of sanctuary is a death area. Then they compare it to the world, running from the problems common to the world. Of course, they are going to end by using the witless congregation as the refuge camp.

    Of course, what they will not say is that the Kingdumb Hell is yet another false refugee camp. You go into the Watchtower Society, and you wait for your death. Some wait months, while others have been waiting there all their lives. And you die a spiritual death, as you stagnate. Everything that defines your life stagnates. Romantically, people stagnate as everything that they used to do is banned. Your music world shrinks significantly (mine did, even though they didn't get the time to go through every single one of my records like they wanted to). Education and job opportunities narrow significantly. All you are left with is field circus and endless boasting sessions.

    Eventually, people in that religion will die physically. And, when they do, they usually end up heavy of heart, knowing that they failed to see the predictions come true. And now it's too late to enjoy life. They die realizing that they didn't live up anywhere near to their potential, because of some religious crap from Brooklyn. And they realize at that point that they have helped scam others out of living to their potentials, too. As for what's next is debatable, but for sure there is no reward coming for those people.

    The best way out of it is straight out of religion. If your religion is binding you in any way, it has to go (and that goes double for cults like Jehovah's Witlesses that merely waste all your time). If you find your religion is satisfactory, then it probably is OK to stay there. But, you are not going to gain salvation by worshiping the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger or the Watchtower Society. That is the first thing that has to go. And, if you choose another religion, you need to do your homework before committing. Or, perhaps, you might just choose to totally stay out of religion altogether. That way, you can just live your life without interference.

    Now, if only blowing off the political and economic tyrants were so easy...

    I think he made a Freudian slip in part 2 whenever he said "you run out of the safe into jehovahs refuge."They may not out right kill you but they certainly will destroy who you are and make you a puppet for a book publishing real estate developer corporation .
