  It's amazing and depressing to see how many ex-JW's have replaced the

  WTS for their government.To me they are not ex-JW's,they still have the *same* mindset

  which makes it very convenient for their leaders to do what they want with them.

  So the US wants to go to war and all criticism stops.I mean what's the difference

  between a JW who can't hear a wrong word about their organization and a supposed ex-JW

  who slavishly follows the *worst* president in American history to go to war with him,without any reservation?

  Has anyone played a JW song backwards?

  by Pleasuredome in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  some modern music has had subliminal messages encripted into it.

  some people may or may not believe that, but i'm sure the wts has written of the 'danger' of subliminals in rock music etc.

  has anyone ever tested the wts kingdom melodies to see if that has any subliminal messages?

  >I suddenly have the urge to play that music backwards. Lol

  >Blonde question.... how do you do that, I only have the music on CD?

  use "EAC" for ripping the CD to Wav-files ( http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/ )

  Then load them in a program like "Audacity" for editing ( http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ )

  to this date, it has never been proved who is responsible for the atrocities of the twin towers' destruction.

  an absolutely appalling act.

  I just thought I'd add the following link to show that life sometimes imitates art:

  http://www.metatech.org/lonegunmanpilo-2.wmv

  The above is a fragment of a TV-serial called "The Lone Gunman".

  From the site I found the link on:

  In February of 2000, The Lone Gunman series aired on FOX TV.

  The pilot episode was about a commercial airliner being flown

  into the World Trade Center Towers 19 months before 9/11.
  
  "But bring down a fully loaded 727 in the middle of New York City"
  "...remote access.. somebody on the ground is flying your plane"
  "They're going to crash the plane into the World Trade Center"
  The Lone Gunman - Year 2000 - WMV Media Clip

  If you want to know where I got it from,here's the site:

  southfield, mibored with scaring elderly misers, the ghost of christmas future is spending the holiday season taunting modern children with visions of christmas 2016's hottest toy: the sony playstation 5, a 2,048-bit console featuring a 45-ghz trinary processor, cinereal graphics booster with 2-gig biotexturing, and an rsp connector for 360-degree online-immersion play.above: the ghost of christmas future offers a pair of phoenix 10-year-olds a tantalizing glimpse of the ps5.. "you know how kids area year is an eternity to them," the wraithlike specter said monday during a visit to the southfield home of 13-year-old josh kuehn.

  "so just imagine showing them something they'll have to wait 14 years for.

  teasing them with a glimpse of the ps5 is the ultimate torture.

  >So it's like a two-year old PC but with no keyboard, mouse or monitor? WOW!

  Is it only me?Or are there others who find "X-Box" one of the most stupid names for a game console?

  What springs to mind when you read or hear something with "X" in the title? Right! Something aimed at adults,

  and mostly it's porn.Of course if the Linux-community manages to run their favourite OS on this machine,it only needs

  a slight change in it's title (To "LinuXBox)...

  So *that's* what it 's called! I can finally give it a name:OCD.
  In my case it was mostly door locks and the gas stove.A well known British
  comedian Ben Elton talked about it in one of his shows about this gas stove
  of which he jiggled each knob to check it was really in the "Off" position.
  I could not stop laughing,he described it very well,it was so recognizable.
  And just like he I sometimes closed the main faucet at the gasmeter just
  to be sure when going out for a whole day or longer.
  And the frontdoor suffered more than necessary under the frequent checks too...

  The sketch in "Life Of Brian" where someone is to be stoned to death

  for mentioning the name "jehovah".

  ("That piece of halibut was good enough even for jehovah!"...).

  I can remember my family being very schocked when they saw that clip

  but I found it funny even then...
