Now you have done it CC. You have created a mystery for me to try to solve. I thought it would be so easy to merely search for the picture on TinEye [ FireFox]. I will easily find the name and artist of that amazing painting. How naive of me. 20 billion pictures later and still no results. Darn you, CC.

Uninvited...again...
by Anders Andersen inso a week or so ago we received an invitation for a jw friend's wedding anniversary party in the mail.it was addressed to 'the andersen family' (and not just mrs. andersen & baby andersen) which was pleasant of course, but not a huge surprise given the type of person who said friend is.. however, i already prepared myself to be uninvited after all.
some time ago, there was a congregation farewell party/get-together.to my surprise, i was invited too!
an elder specifically came over to my house to tell me.then some weeks later, he visited again, being terribly sorry but the invitation was revoked as the congregation got concerned over my possible presence.. with that debacle in mind, i wasn't surprised to receive a message from my friend 'hey are you at home?

With that debacle in mind, I wasn't surprised to receive a message from my friend 'Hey are you at home? We need to discuss you being at my anniversary party'. Well what do you know! Yesterday he told me I'm not invited anymore as the congregation was getting upset about me being there.
I'm stunned that an adult would put up with crap like that. You need a backbone.

2017 Convention Video To Be Shown Regarding The 1975 Failure
by pale.emperor inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go3arnnsfkk&feature=youtu.be.
no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.
instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

[1:14] Grandpa smashes forehead on deceased Grandma's nose. Bad acting.

Notice in the video [ 1:12] Grandpa was going to give the deceased Grandma a kiss. Then he caught himself. Heaven forbid.
" There's a camera on me, I better not kiss her and risk corrupting the youth, or worse, getting lectured and having to shoot the scene again."
No kiss for Grandma and then at the funeral a huge hug for some brother. [1:25] Bad acting.

The whole world is not comprised of western anglosphere people
by fulltimestudent incouldn't help thinking the above when reading something about china today,.
it was about a chinese boy band (a pop group organised and trained straight out of the same manual that turns out successful kpop (south korean) boy bands.
the chinese one is called tfboys, and they have zoomed in popularity.

Reword the song a bit and it would make a darn good 'kingdom song'.
We are the heirs of the kingdom,
Inheriting the glorious tradition of the preachers of the past;
To love mother and the governing body,
While the blue JW logo stands at our kingdom halls.
We do not fear hardship, nor the enemy,
Studying hard and struggling with resolve;
Towards victory, we courageously advance,
Towards victory, we courageously advance,
Towards victory, we courageously advance;
We are the heirs of the kingdom.
We are the heirs of the kingdom,
Along the glorious path of the preachers of the past;
To love mother and the governing body,
"Young Pioneer Members" is our proud name.
Ever be prepared, to contribute to the cause,
And to wait for Jehovah to destroy completely the enemy.
For our ideal, we courageously advance,
For our ideal, we courageously advance,
For our ideal, we courageously advance;
We are the heirs of kingdom. -

New "paradise" video preview? "Will you be there?"
by stuckinarut2 inmy wife (unstuck) just saw a new 2-3 min video in her ex jw facebook feed, depicting a "paradise" scene preview.. it was complete with aerial shots and slow motion montages, with moving music.. scriptures were quoted across the screen, such as rev 21:3,4. i shazamed the music, and it came from another "worldly" album called "world of dreams.future world music" (you should see the song titles from that album!).
is it an official wt video, or some private persons production?.
if it is official, they seem to have once again resorted to desperate emotional manipulation tactics..... anyone else know?

Do the women have skirts on?!
Wrong, all wrong. From 'paradise lost to paradise restored'. Them 'new world people' will all be walking about, over sandy shores and through forested woodlands, 'buck nekad'.
