Video about boy to not play violin?
by Crazyguy init looks to me as though they are saying don't play at a higher level because your then in competition?
so if i'm correct what if any bible scriptures can be used to back up this anti competitive idea and are there other scriptures showing the opposite?.

Frightened people want black and white answers and some people have never been aware of the real value of intellectual freedom of thought.

Cover of the September 2016 Watchtower.
by jwfacts inthe cover of the 2016 september watchtower has an islander couple preaching.
the brother looks like he may be fijian in a traditional skirt standing in a river, doing a presentation on an apple ipad.
i can't imagine there are many families that can afford an ipad in the pacific islands.

We went to an assembly a few years ago in Western Samoa and GB Jackson was there in all his glory(used to be a missionary in Samoa/Tonga?), My cousin and her husband were special poineers. Went witnessing with the locals. They are very impoverished.

This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?
by prologos inthe resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!
--well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.
a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

In the course I am studying at university it is considered unethical in group work to discuss any subject of a sensitive nature without first agreeing to allow the persons in the group to leave the room if they need to anytime. To be respectful of others lived experiences and to finish the group checking at everyone is ok. The tutors offer counselling or other students offer to stay to talk. WT just drops a load of emotive soap opera garbage all over everyone triggering all sorts of painful memories. Then meeting over fend for yourselves. -

What shocking stories did you ever hear about?
by Truthexplorer inas a pre-awakened ms, i heard of 2 stories that i found very shocking at the time.
please keep in mind, i was following wt blindly at the time and was part of what i thought was the true religion.
the first shocking story was when i attended a large meeting for elders and ministerial servants covering our circuit.

A elders wife made only an australian indigenous family sit on plastic covered furniture at a get together at her home. The indigenous couple where a government worker and a nurse actually much better qualified than the elder who was a house painter! Disgusting. -

she sheepishly and seems almost embarrassed to say she is a jehovah witness.

Relative going full retard JW.org
by biometrics ina relative has gone full-retard with jw.org on facebook.
every post is something to do with going to bethel or pioneering overseas.. the catalyst for this full-retard behavior seems to be a recent marriage breakdown (both jw's).
and the fact he was caught trying to embezzle an elderly relative's live savings.

Maybe going "wife shopping". Much easier to control a dependant/complaint third world wife.
