  Questions From Readers

  ● If, in earlier years, a person made a vow to God that he now realizes was unwise, does he have to continue conforming to it?—U.S.A.

  ...
  
  Nor are Scriptural vows to be compared with the so-called ‘monastic vows’ that persons in later centuries were required to make in order to gain admittance into certain religious orders of church organizations. Those vows of ‘chastity, poverty and obedience’ placed those vowing under obligation to the religious orders and served those orders as a means of exercising control over their adherents. Higher church officials could absolve persons from certain types of vows, but with some vows release could be gained only through the titular head of the church, as in the papal arrangement. These, then, are not Scriptural vows, for Scriptural vows were entirely spontaneous and personal, between the individual and God.

  Thankfully it ended in a charge for this man (the man accused of manslaughter). He got 13 years in the new trial.

  Does that suggest that the WTS didn't purchase the rights to use the song?

  I am not sure what it suggests... all I know is that Audiomachine is getting money and not the WT every time that video is played...

  I uploaded the last convention video onto Youtube, got a "copyright claim" from Audiomachine, which I happily obliged to.
  
  I put my comments and criticism of the WT video before hand, but still the JW's are looking at the videos like crazy...

  So WT is making money for Audiomachine, and I get to make thousands of JW's read some apostate material.
  
  Win win!!

  They lacked the budget for cgi, and apparently, for making original music. Jehovah's hand must be short...

  *** w83 1/15 p. 8 Modern Trends in Music—Can They Sway You? ***

  In view of what Paul said to the Ephesian Christians about wicked spirit forces, would it be reasonable for a modern-day Christian to have records in his personal collection that exalt demonism and spiritism? If he knows that some groups are deeply involved in occult studies and practices, would it be safe to assume that none of that influence would creep through into the lyrics, the beat or even the record-album cover?

  I know many of you are non-believers (myself included), but remember the time when you were a believer. I would have been scared of this picture and would have thought the album was Satanic or something...
  
  MAJOR FAIL!
  
  Plus the plagiarism, of course. They might have bought it, but who knows.

  At best, it's poor investigation, at worst, it's plagiarism.

  Convention Videos: Someone messed up royally

  .

  when i first saw the video, i was like, "wait... is that her... panties showing through the dress"?and it seems like it is so.turns out that if you look at the middle right of the video, there are some letters.

  it reads, "footage provided by pond5".if someone wants to purchase that video to confirm, you can purchase it here:http://depositphotos.com/63621499/stock-video-violinist-girl-walking-through-a.htmli think that this was a royal mess up because i doubt they would put footage of a sister in a skimpy, revealing dress.doesn't the gb approve this?this will probably go down as another of the "subliminal images"...if there are thongs in paradise... might not be so bad after all!.

  Here's the thing: the video supposedly portrays paradise, where everything is "perfect" according to JW standards. There are a lot of detaila in the video that are just non-sensical or may be considered "new light"... For example, there's cheese among what the dubs are eating in paradise. I thought there wasn't going to be animal products there?

  Also, wouldn't a dress that is thin enough to show the panties not be allowed in the JW paradise? Especially if those panties are thong-like (not granny panties)?

  If the GB doesn't allow that for visiting Bethel, or probably for any occasion where the person is outside the home, the fact that it is on the "paradise" video is a major fail.

  If they bought stock video, then they should have made sure that the stock video did not contain elements they wouldn't approve of.

  I am criticizing based on their own standards.
