I enjoyed the documentary "The Buddha" on PBS. They also did a series about the Mormons that was pretty interesting as well, especially the way former members were treated.

For me it has been a journey through these books: "Crisis of Conscience", "In Search of Christian Freedom", "Combatting Cult Mind Control", "Releasing the Bonds", "I'm Perfect You're Doomed", "Confessions of a Teenage Jesus Jerk", "Evolution for Dummies", "The God Delusion", "God is Not Great", and "The End of Faith", along with various books about Zen philosophy.
These movies have also been important: "Religulous" and "Worlds Apart".
Some books I am interested in reading next are "The Spanking Room", "Growing Up in Mama's Club", and "1984". Who has read these? Do you recommend them?
What else has been of help to you?

Horrific Violence in Today's Movies.
by ohiocowboy ini found an article today that discusses the new batman movie.
growing up, i remember the batman and robin tv show from the 1960's, and i assumed that the dark knight movies would be along the same lines.

I was naturally intrigued by what Scott77 posted about Bowen here and googled it. Apparently a thread was started about this but it must have gotten locked. Can anybody clue me in on the gist of it?

"The media are going to spread lies about us!" (from 2012 DC audio drama of Jehovah's Witnesses)
by JimmyPage inyes during this year's audio drama about jesus' death it was said from the platform that the media is going to be spreading lies about jehovah's witnesses and that we should pay no attention to them.
did they say this at your convention location?.
also during the drama about marriage it was obvious to me that brothers are not reaching out for privileges the way they used to.

I encourage everyone who has the chance to make such a "donation"... you know that at least one person, if not more, will be reading it... and talking about it...
The funny thing is, the audiodrama was about Jesus' death... and stories that were fabricated at that time... but to make it apply to the Watchtower Society was a real stretch... as usual...
