after all, remember after the thriller video came out, it was reported that he donated a rather sinful amount of millions to the borg.

that oughtta buy him a spot in the hall for his final appearance, dontcha think?

and if his mother still claims to be in, do you think she just might mention to the local hall in beverly hills to hold his service ?

the awake!

magazine (or possibly it was even the watchtower) once endorsed this story about the "haunted house" of actress elke sommers.. here is essentially all of the information to found on the internet concerning the house.. .

"actress elke sommers and her husband joe hyam witnessed supernatural phenomena in the dining room of their north berverly hills home from 1964 to 1968. the apparition of a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and tie was seen by guests on five separate occasions.

let me just say from the beginning i am not a bitter ex jehovah's witness.

i am simply a kid from back in the 70's - 80's who was completely enmeshed in it, leaving in 1984 after a sham marriage rushed by social and peer pressure within a congregation.

it took two years of a horrible personal relationship to accept that for 20 years i was misled.

Witness Kids - Scared silly by the WTBTS
by misspeaches in
1. jw
2. experiences
i wonder if anyone else who grew up as a jw can relate with me on this subject.. i grew up hearing stories of 'faithful brothers & sisters' being tortured to a point where they were almost dead.

all they had to do to be set free was renounce jehovah and their religon.

the stories i heard of torture were graphic in nature and to this day i can not handle hearing about torture or watch it being portrayed in movies.

Michael Jackson as a JW ...

2. friends
do you believe that the jw factor in michael jackson's life contributed in any way to him being a misfit of sorts?.

i'm wouldn't describe myself as a fan of his, but sometimes i just feel so sorry for the poor guy.. and now it's even worse!

he's responsible for children who're probably thinking that it's everyone else who's weird!

(adds found on pictiger are not associated with jwd) urls for watchtower scans can be found at the bottom.

(from kent's old archive).

this was the title on an article in the watchtower 1987 9/1, pages 12-15. this article should scare any employer that do have employees that are jehovah's witnesses.
