  whenever people look at my cd collection, they'll come across blue oyster cult, black sabbath, iron maiden, led zeppelin, etc.

  but then they'll come across something unusual.. right now i'm listening to "kenny rogers - ten years of gold".

  my parents had this album, and i loved it.

  2. beliefs

  on another post shotgun quoted a scripture from john 8.. i have a copy of the new international version bible, first published in 1973 by the international bible society.. regarding the above scripture it says and i quote : .

  "the earliest and most reliable manuscripts and other ancient witnesses do not have john 7:53-8:11".

  Hidden Images in the JW Publications

  by Hunyadi in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i am a disfellowshipped brother and have never had a problem with the organization's doctrines.

  i am, however, deeply disturbed at the undeniable use of hidden or subliminal images in the illustrations of the wt publications.

  there are so many that it cannot be interpreted as anything other than a deliberate pattern.
