well brothers and sisters,

i just returned home safe from the convention.

as much as i would like to give you the minute by minute breakdown, i won't because this is going to be a freaking long post anyhow.

RR,

At least the fear of apprehension made the sessions a little more exciting! Are the attendants trained now to give out "christian" beatings?

www.live8live.com - make your vote count

by zagor in

ive read some posts on this topic but i think also there's a time to stop being cynical for a moment and try doing something constructive.

yes last concert wasnt as successful as everyone hoped; perhaps weve learned something since then.

give your vote, make it count, it is a small thing to do..

Whiskeyjack

Already done.

Keep on rockin' in the free world!

The New and Hidden Class Consciousness of Jehovah's Witnesses

by truthseeker in

jw

class consciousness is defined as identification with other members of ones own class and awareness of its relationship with other classes.

a remarkable change has happened in the last ten years among jehovah's witnesses, and this is largely due to the way we communicate.. .

the internet has brought about huge social changes in the way we think, do business and research, and how we spend our free time.. .

Truthseeker,

I agree with your statements fully, especially in regards to the "younger" generation of today's techno-saavy kids. The numbers of this subgroup in relation to the whole may be debatable but I would expect it hits six figures internationally (though I would include discouraged individuals who see the continual "tweakings" of GB prophecy fall flat but decide to keep their mouths shut). When I faded from the org. in the early nineties (just before the popularization of the internet) large swathes of publishers were picking and choosing what rules they were willing to follow and to what extent.

I'd expect only a small percentage of JW kids haven't "googled" JW's on the web!
