I will try to record it. They did something like that today but I am not sure if they will still have it tomorrow. I am sure the program is the same everywhere but I was shocked to see an interview about that today. Funny thing is the sister they interviewed is from my hall and I know her pretty well. She is a bit of a psicoptah who has tried to commit suicide twice. She has a son that left the org 6 years ago and a daughter that was forced into marriage via rape by the son of an elder. She went onto the stage crying, even before the questions came. She went on to say how hurt she was but the interview was not about how he returned to the org because he hasn't. It was mostly about how she has remained loyal because she is shunning him. The worst is that I know for a fact the she doesn't shun him in the whole sense of the practice. The kid lives hours away from here and they don't see each other often because of the distance. I fixed her computer and she has plenty of pictures of her visiting with him along with her elder husband. So it's easy to say I shun him when the circumstances help you and when you get a chance to show your stand you don't. To the eye of the bystander this can be considered as "limited contact". If they were neighbors, such occasional contact would constitute shunning but because of the situation it is not. Last time I saw the kid, he was dropping her off at the hall for the meetings. It disgusted me to think that other mothers will decide to imitate her without knowing what is really going on. She claims to be of the anointed by the way.

another thing that just shocked me was a movie we just saw. Not easy to type much about it from my phone but it portraits Jesus at 12 years of age talking like he did not know he was the messiah. The whole movie surrounds around the doubts that they may have had after being announced by angels about the birth of the messiah but never getting proof. The puking inducing part is that they were using this as a parallel to attack doubters. Some needs to get a recording of it. I could not record it. This will bring too much attention to me

Gosh, an experience consisting of a hypocrite lying about what she really does?

I am shocked, shocked that such things are allowed in the spirtiual paradise!

I was floored by the Jesus videos as well. I got into for two days with my wife. Some wrote a story about angels announcing something so that's proof and if you doubt your dumb!

I wanted to puke as well. I asked my wife when that is what they consider proof then what about joseph smith? Or Muhammed?

When the narrator started talking I wanted to laugh. Seemed like an snl skit. "Hello friend, may you have peace" *barf*

Also the audience was like gasping when they first showed adult jesus like it was really him or he has never been portrayed on film before. Lol. It's not over my friend there is more to come. Typical jw logic trying to take the story of Jesus and making it about doubters. Even as an atheist I find this quite and insult to his story.

Jesus didn't come to condemn doubters. Jesus was a revolutionary. He came to rebuke the religious leaders of his day for being hypocrites and legalists. Jesus would have shown up at the convention and taken out a whip.

Jesus would have shown up at the convention and taken out a whip.

He was definitely over the top in his delusions with fanatical anger issues over his imagined Deity father.

Day 2 StarTrekAngel...

Just think! By the time lunch is over you are past the halfway mark of this yuck weekend!

You are on the downhill slide and soon it will all be in the past!

Interesting what you told us about the Jesus video yesterday. I hope that gets more conversation here on the board.

Thanks for being our on the scene reporter. You are taking one for the team!

certainly it is starting to yield small results. Like my wife was willing to engage in debate without shutting me down. Somehow though she seems to think that shunning is a matter of choice and that some people don't do it. She seems to think only a minority take it to the extreme. I hope the example they will display today is extreme enough to show her that the wt expect us all to take it to that extreme

Unfortunately they did not present a very good case. Yesterday's was better. Today it was a couple and the man said he lost his privileges after his kid committed a "serious offense". Almost sounded like a positive experience of a parent that was able to put his kid above the privileges. Off course they spinned it the other way. I did record it if still interested

Crazyguy

I can hear it now, 'my live in daughter took a blood transfusion or she would of died and I lost my privileges, stupid child how could she do this to me, she should of trusted in Jehovah, even if she died she would be resurrected and I could of kept my privileges'.
