Disturbing new YouTube video showing Anthony Morris's approach to teenage baptism

by cedars in

if anyone was under the illusion that all baptized jw children become dedicated solely of their own volition, then hopefully this new video should be a wake-up call.. .

(unfortunately, due to the soundtrack i've chosen, this video is apparently banned in germany.

Taking a break from AJWRB due to lack of interest

well, i've given it a year of my life and i hoped it would have taken off a bit stronger.

i thought it was a good cause and still do.

but i can't pay my bills and i can no longer justify spending time on the cause of saving lives with blood transfusions.

Shawn10538

Yeah. maybe the cease to exist thing was a bit too strong. I guess I meant practically not literally Randy.

Well, I've given it a year of my life and I hoped it would have taken off a bit stronger. I thought it was a good cause and still do. But I can't pay my bills and I can no longer justify spending time on the cause of saving lives with blood transfusions. It's been a great year working with Randy. I still plan on taking it over in the future and Randy still has that on the table. But I have to get a job, like, right now. I'm totally bankrupt and broke. I have to concentrate on myself a little more before I can help others. I may post occasionally if I can get my head above water financially, but unless I get overwhelming interest in the site I just don't see the sense in keeping it cutting edge or even up to date.

I think people are satsfied to just get a little info off of it and that's as far as they need it. Making it a cause just didn't work. Plus now the WT has put out some hard core propaganda about blood transfusions, and to respond to it correctly would involve myself going and interviewing the authors of the Forbes magazine article and the doctors who wrote the piece in question. All that takes time and money, and there just is no support for that sort of thing, no demand and no market. Unfortunately it is ajwrb that is probably going to cease to exist before the WTs doctrine ceases to exist. But that's the way everybody wants it and so it shall be. Thanks to all the people who have donated to the cause over the last year.

this is kind of a redundant post, so look at my post "sparlock lives.

" legal arrangements can be made to get you a hand made sparlock garden gnome made of clay.

likeness is very good.

Serious people PM me. So far only one person seems serious about it. I won't do it unless there is at least 10 serious people who want it.

Sparlock Lives!!!

i was just wondering what kind of interest there would be here on jwn to accept sparlock garden gnomes that i have created.

i have made a clay proto type of sparlock.

i might be willing to "place" them to those interested if there is enough interest.

Shawn10538

The more people who order one the lower the cost of making it will be. So those who really want one, and I am looking for people who really want one and who didn't post on this thread as a joke, try and get others to order one or two as well. If there sin't enough interest I am not going to go through the trouble.

I see Sparlock as an extremely important symbol of the ex-JW community. Sometimes a picture or cartoon can say so much more than words. It can create a memory that lasts longer than all the great arguments of the worlds philosophers.

FOURTEEN DEAD IN DENVER SHOOTING !

by Phizzy in

more than one gunman seems to be involved in this terrible act.

families were attending mid-night showings of the dark knight movie.. the media should not give publicity tothe names of the perpetrators, they often crave the fame.

give them that fame and others will crave it too.. my thoughts are with the families of all that are affected, a horrific and pointless act that will bring so much pain and sorrow.. edited to say, seems as though it was a lone gunman..

Shawn10538

It's definitely not CRAZY to suggest that it is interesting and noteworthy how close it is to Columbine. I don't know why anyone would object to such a posit.
