  Did your congregation have "Talent" Shows?

  i saw this video on youtube and didnt know if i should laugh or crawl into the fetal position.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abm0t-qhllc&feature=related.

  .

  we had several "talent" shows over the years in my original congregation - it was the only annual gathering more nauseating that the meetings.. my friend and i would always bring our walkmans and blare heavy metal in the back - hoping to block out the embarassing crap on the stage.you always had a few older ones get up on stage and slaughter a kingdumb song.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/the_god_delusion.

  the god delusion is a 2006 bestselling non-fiction book by british biologist richard dawkins, professorial fellow of new college, oxford, and inaugural holder of the charles simonyi chair for the public understanding of science at the university of oxford.. .

  in the god delusion, dawkins contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that belief in a personal god qualifies as a delusion, which he defines as a persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidence.

  I have seen a few of his video's. I have the book and wrote up a summary of all chapters on jwsupportforum.com. It is and interesting read. The book is quite dry and you have to really follow it. Not one of his better books.

  Watchtower cleans out Kingdom Hall Library's ...

  by RR in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  last night i got a call from a chap in the uk, who recently left the jw's.

  he wanted to compare notes with his us counterparts.. he said that a few years ago, (i think about 2 years ago) the society cleaned out all the literature from every kingdom hall, particularly russell and rutherford books and anything prior to 1950. giving each hall a computer with the watchtower cd rom for them to use for research.

  he wanted to know if the same was done in the states.

  They cleaned out the hall here when they built new. Saying they wanted to update the library with current information/teachings.

  And that the old stuff well it was too old.

  Did Jesus have a haidresser ?

  by edmond dantes in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i coudn't help but notice in a recent watchtower ( february i think it was).

  jesus was pointing the way to some one with two fingers ,not to somebody who had two fingers but pointing the way with two fingers.

  just one finger might have give the wrong impression.. the point is jesus had what can only be described as this fabulous head of hair .i mean it was like wow because your worth it !
