" you will never grow old..."
by mrquik in" you will never grow old..." a more grievous lie is hard to imagine.
i heard this one first in 1957. i was 6. my mother had just converted.
i heard it many times after that.

Not only that my wife and I would never grow old , but our children would never go to high school .
My wife and I are in our 70`s , and not only did our children go to high school ,they married and had children of their own ,who also have gone through high school , and married and had children.
And the WTB&TS today , takes no responsibility for "Witnesses" who took them at their word and never had children .

Is it me or were the experiences at the assemblies really contrived?
by keyser soze inmy favorite were the ones where they were reading a wt publication in the break room at work, and an inquisitive co-worker, thirsty for spiritual knowledge approaches them.
this leads to an informal witness, which eventually leads to bible study and baptism.. in all my years of working, i've never had anyone show the slightest bit of interest in what i was reading while i was on my break at work.
but as i said, maybe it's just me..

I must admit nobody ever inquired about what I was reading in my lunch breaks ,for the many years I did it.
However dumbass me was converted by a co-worker.

by dubstepped inshe turned one today, and 36 earlier this week.
we planned a big party, big for two people that have never thrown a party before.
we rented a church fellowship hall because 1. it was nice and big and affordable and 2. it was kind of awesome to throw a party in a place we would have never ventured in our previous life.

I would like to know what the general public`s view on this video is if it could be put out their somehow.
I would like to see journalists of Radio , TV , and print media , take on this subject and see what the publlc`s view of this video is.
Children are in attendance at every Jehovah`s Witness Meetings , as they don`t believe in separating them from the adults in worship.
And this includes subjects that are sometimes not suitable for young ears.

Getting back to that video, The Bunker video , , is this a normal film for young children to be subjected to?
The fear of Police , the Armed forces , Governmental Authorities , of the Country you live in ?
How do you think young minds are going to process such indoctrination .?
are they going to grow up normal with a healthy mental attitude ? or are they going to be paranoid about authority in society outside of their religion.
Is this not a form of mental /emotional /social .abuse against children of Jehovah`s Witnesses ?
Who knows how such indoctrination will manifest itself in these children in years to come.
Putting them at a disadvantage to the rest of their peers for their development to be responsible citizens as they mature into adulthood ?

stuckinarut2 , the report i read , didn`t identify this person as a JW ,however it did mention he had a slver Bible ,and he explained his actions to the police that it was because of the coming Great Tribulation ,and the photo seemed to back that up about the Bible anyway.
just saying
