  Oh yep...here we go....

  This weeks service meeting has a part designed to show how children should be indoctrinated and manipulated into going "out in service"

  The part first asks for the disturbingly corny cartoon clip to be played on the big screen at the halls: "lets go out in service!"

  (If you haven't watched it yet, please go to jw.org and watch it....you simply won't beleive it until you see it!)

  Then the part follows up with the most inane, stupid questions I have ever seen in a service meeting part.....

  Ahhh...yes...lets distort the minds of children one video at a time hey WT?

  Urgh that is so distasteful. Unfortunately I used to let my child watch those awful brainwashing cartoons and she loved them :/ so know the one you refer to.

  Divergent

  I was one of those who were dragged out in service as a kid. I quite believed that those who did not respond to our preaching work would be destroyed at Armageddon. I also believed that the preaching work was the most important work ever as it is a life-saving work that is never to be repeated again! It is the greatest responsibility ever given to us & it is a privilege to be part of this work which saves lives. We were like rescuers trying to help people to get off a sinking ship or to get out of a burning building. Not wanting to have a share in preaching would mean that I did not have love for my neighbors & even worse, not have love for Jehovah & Jesus. Now I realize how badly my thinking was messed up & regret all those wasted years in "service". Damn!

  Band on the Run

  I hated going door to door. Selling WTs and Awake mags was only slightly easier. I wanted family approval. People were not nice. If a ten year old child came to my door and asked me if I believed in eternal life, I would be polite to the child and then give the parents a piece of my mind. Next, I would have them booted off private property. Altho family members lived in violent and disastrous housing projects, service work exposed me to sights and smells a child should not know.

  WMF, you're supposed to put the tag-line in bold and italics:
