  Caleb and Sophia Video Mashup to Hard Knock Life

  i thought this video was pretty well done and mildly entertaining to watch.. on another note, i am really hoping some clever ex-jws will do their own animation series with caleb and sophia as young adults trying to leave the org.

  that would be awesome.

  Didn't quite get the bit about growing up and paying your debts - does it mean the parents?I need to watch again. I was hoping it was going to say " but one day we will grow up and then you won't see us for dust!"( or something like that).

  I thought that was a little odd, too, and a bit unnecessary. I felt like the angry tone at the end really detracted from the message. It's quite interesting how many images there are of the kids being in trouble and being shamed once they spliced all the videos together. Quite sad, really.

  An update for the completionists

  for all of you who have closely followed my posts over the years....(ok, so that's none, i get it).

  some time ago in a galaxy far far away.... i posted some aus government files.. one of which contained an article...'what is a jehovah's witness - - by milton g henschel.

  (see here).. https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/161119/more-aus-watchtower-pdf-files.

  Oh my goodness, I just saw the caption underneath the article's photo. It says, "Jehovah's Witness ministers baptizing converts, whose ages ranged from four to 86, in Ruislip, Lido, London." Do you really think they baptized a 4 year old? Wow!

  On a comical note, I saw the form fitting swimsuits and men with no shirts, and thought it would give Tony Morris III a stroke if he walked into a convention and saw such a thing! LOL

  Jehovah's Witnesses have enough legitimate issues that need addressing. There is no need to make up sensationalized, ridiculous stories.

  I can't get over the beginning ...

  "I didn't read the letter because it was really long and had lots of words". <--- paraphrasing.

  Were they trying to portray those two elders as complete doofuses?

  I found it! Here is the link if anyone else wants to read it. https://www.vogue.com/article/serena-williams-pregnancy-vogue-september-issue-2017

  I read it and cringed. It sounds like she might want to go hard core now and is trying to convert her muslim-raised husband. She actually used a JW phrase that made me want to throw up a little bit ... "takes the lead"!

  Talking about her (then) fiancee, Alexis Ohanian:

  “He’s extremely smart but not a know-it-all. He’s curious about what he doesn’t know. Being a Jehovah’s Witness is important to me, but I’ve never really practiced it and have been wanting to get into it. Alexis didn’t grow up going to any church, but he’s really receptive and even takes the lead. He puts my needs first.”

  hisclarkness: "i believe it was from the vogue interview that specifically covered her wedding a month or so ago where she made the statement about being raised but never getting serious about it."

  Thanks, hisclarkness! I'll look it up. I was wondering if she recently starting suffering from new parent guilt. I have seen several people do that. They have a baby and then all of the decide, they feel like they need to decide on a religion.

  Hisclarkness ... what is the basis for your assumption that her quotes are from 2002? This article seems to be a recent interview. Also, can you provide a link of her quote last months saying she was raised in it?

  Crazyguy ... yes, that is correct.
