  "my name is tom shepard, co-producer and co-director of knocking, a documentary about jehovah's witnesses.

  you have violated u.s. copyright law by not gaining permission to use footage from knocking in the opening sequence of your series of short videos "watchtower comments" archived at the url: http://jehovahswitnessesvideo.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html .

  some links that might be useful for a picture to replace (IF YOU HAVE TO)

  That is what I have for now.

  I don't think it is real... A true notice wouldn't contain an error in spelling...

  I'll post the quote here and bold what I mean..

  Shouldn't this read "Your" use of the footage....

  Spelling errors happen, but not with a legal document.

  Family Guy

  ever notice that family guy has a lot of jw humor?

  the very first episode when peter is talking about how the brady bunch lived in a bad neighborhood, and he says all we got are jemima witnesses, then aunt jemima pops her head in the window and says, yall wants some pancakes.. .

  or when the evil monkey in chris' room turns into a jw and he does that evil point to chris while holding a watchtower.

  Jesus as Mediator

  by One true Jesus Freak in

  i'm learning my way around the board, i did use the search feature, but i was not able to find what i was looking for exactly.

  my question is, at one time jw were taught that jesus was their mediator, then later they were taught that he is not.

  what is the current teachings of jesus being mediator?

  I was at the school's library. I walked away for a moment, but I closed the browser. When I came back there was a person next to my station. As long as they don't say anything bad it's fine I guess.

  As for this board welcoming everyone, I believe it does. I see all the happy welcomes that new arivials get. If that doesn't say everyone is welcome then I don't know what does.

  I'm sure I have nothing to worry about.

  I'll mention quickly, Jesus Freak, that "true" is a trigger word for ex-witnesses. The Watchtower drills in to their membership that they have the "truth" and that they are the only "true" religion. It's all a bunch of hoo-ha, obviously, but if someone successfully breaks away from all that, they are naturally suspicious of anyone who declares themselves "true".

  Do you think the Jesus Freak could possibly be an ex-witness? Should we be suspicious of this person?
