FORMER-JW/COMEDIAN on TV Tonight 10pm EST-TBN

1. jw
2. friends
even though this particular show with tim conway was taped a year ago, i only saw it about a month ago, and they are repeating it tonight, friday 1/8/10, 10pm est.. it is 2 hours of different comedians and a few of the guys joke about the jw's, one of them having been a former jw.

it was hilarious.. i forget at which point during the 2 hours the guys start joking about the jws, so you'll have to watch the whole thing.. it is tbn's "praise the lord" program which airs at 10pm est tonight.. if you miss it tonight, it will be in the tbn video archives eventually: http://www.tbn.org/watch-us/archives.

some tech saavy person should tape it and put up the jw portions at youtube.. below is the snip from the daily tbn email about tonight's program... (not sure it will show up after posting, but it is showing up now).... .

i saw this story on the orlando/central florida tv news over the weekend, and further below is their very brief, and barely-informational print article.

the print article does not mention jws, but the tv news loudly and clearly said several times "jehovah's witnesses going door to door" were attacked by the pit bulls.

greetings folks... i was 'compelled' to find a few more 'credible' statistics after reading some comments in another thread in the child abuse section.

until people are affected personally, i guess they just don't 'get it' when it comes to molesters/pedophiles, nor are they (evidently) compelled to do in depth reading about it until it 'hits home.
