    I look forward to your vids. I hope that beyond preaching to your choir, you reach the JW's
    out there that need to hear this. One of your early videos probably should have the words
    "Jehovah" or "Watchtower" in it so they can find it in a search.

    I've given it all those tags... that's why I called it "Jehovah's Witness..." in the title so that it would be noticed.... I have had plenty of active JWs notice my other video, and I linked it to that one as a response to V's video. Some have even sent me hate mail, and other active JWs have communicated with me thru email. It will take some time before momentum builds up to get active JWs to see it en masse, but I will work on it... A@G

    Good job Lance. No more talk about Tom Cruise and no more talk of beard shaving (my husband is sporting one now too, and I love it). You will have a perspective being a Gilead graduate that others will listen to.

    Hey there, I think what you are doing will attract a lot of attention. Gilead graduates are considered god-like in the organization.

    I like the beard. First thing I did when I disassociated was grow a goatee. Felt great and liberating! Nothing screams APOSTATE like a ex-brother with facial hair.

    LANCE- Excellent job ! Very good idea to reach out to people. You come across very respectful, polite , and informative. I bet you came across well in the door to door witnessing work also ! So are you going to make 5 minute U-tubes discussing various different subjects showing the witnesses aren't applying what they teach from the scriptures ? I don't have any technical suggestions as others , as I'm not technically inclined - however to appeal to a wide variety of people with these subjects you might consider a broad range of subjects.

    Some thoughts : The WT child abuse scandals and ensuing lawsuits, the view of blood transfusions, the flip-flopping the society has had on their view of higher educaton ( ie.colleges, universities ) , the flip-flopping views on the "generation " view and how 1914 is 94 years in arrears now. Just a few suggestions on topics . The wider variety of subjects you approach - the greater variety of people you may reach. Remember what seems like a big issue to one individual you are trying to reach - might not be so big to the next person . And the reverse is true. Everybody has there " hot " buttons and pressure points or issues they have had with the WT society. So keep tat in mind. But more power to you brother ! Go for it ! Good luck ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper
