  Do they still own 21 Clark Street "The Towers" building? I recall this was where most of the senior bethelites and GB were housed.

  Adele's new album....

  by _Morpheus in

  2. entertainment

  adele's new album came out today.

  so far i love it, although one of the songs feels a bit overwrought to me.

  i find her to be at her best, as i always have, when she is singing only accompanied by a piano.

  i remember at my teen years when i was studying with a brother that he said to me that there was no rain before the flood.

  instead there was this mist that you have.

  never before or after this have i heard something like this.

  using a roku may damage the color on tv sets.

  it appears to change the color phase to magenta.. has anyone else noticed this problem on their tvs while using a roku?

  apparently, the problem cannot be repaired.. http://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=90113.

  Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?

  by Dunedain in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  there were always all types of speakers in the org.

  myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.

  other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

  A few spring to mind. A brother got up to give a talk and when he adjusted the lectern height to put his books in the right position he didn't tighten it properly. As he began his talk he gripped it with both hands and it suddenly dropped to which he exclaimed "oops I've got a wobbly rectum".

  A visiting speaker was giving a talk where the outline touched on horoscopes, he then pulled out the newspaper and read out every horoscope. There were complaints to his body of elders!

  A local elder who wasn't the sharpest tool in the box gave the talk "a godly view of sex and marriage". It seemed that he wasn't entirely clear on the specifics of how procreation worked and got himself in a muddle. When describing the point where an embryo becomes a foetus be inexplicably termed it as when the "embryo becomes a fully full fully". News of the talk spread to those who weren't there on the day and those in neighbouring congregations and a number of copies were passed around for amusement value.

  And of course in every congregation someone said orgasm instead of organism.

  The right to shun - wrong?

  by Simon in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many people are understandably upset and angry at the notion that jws have the right to shun people.

  it seems such an obvious "no brainer" cruel and inhuman thing to do - it must be wrong ... surely?.

  of course we look at things from the perspective of those hurt and harmed by shunning.

  What could and should be legislated against is an organisation, and particularly one with tax free status, dictating who should be shunned. Furthermore the threat of being shunned if you don't shun another individual should also be outlawed.

  Shunning of one individual by another should be a personal choice not mandated by a corporation.

  i have a vague memory of jws having some objection to logos of some kind in the past, which might be a contradiction to the recent addition of the jw.org logo.. please can someone enlighten me on what their stance used to be regarding logos?.

  i don't know if this is already posted so sorry people if it is.

  cedars site has had a request to take down the leaked letter regarding changes to the theocratic ministry school and other issues.. the reason given by wt is that it is a "copyright" issue.

  of course this validates the letters authenticity even more.. have a good day or night people.

  I think Simon has complied with takedown requests in the past. Why ever wouldn't you? The information is out there, job done.
