About 8 years ago there was alot of excitement in my local congregations centred around "enigma's" "Sadness". Apparently heaps of dubs had had a rampage of demon attacks from owning this song. There was some talking in the song that was apparently a Satanic Language. Not long ago I bought a compilation CD with this song on it. I listened to the talking. Guess what? It was French! Oh, those dubs!!

The Eagles "Hotel California" was blacklisted amongst the dubs I knew, as it was about a "demonized" hotel WHat music WASNT thrown out by my parents. All of it was chucked. Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, NIN, Tool, Stone Temple Pilots, Nirvana, Beck, Tori Amos (can you guess what era I grew up in as a teenager?) It used to drive me absolutely crazy.

Hi Everyone,
A serious subject. I finally perused the Australian sex offenders online register, just to check and make sure there was no one I knew regestered. Thankfully, there was not. While doing this, I wondered whether anyone from this forum had investigated the register and discovered any active JW's they knew or had known on it. To tell you the truth after the horrors of the expose' of the cult, I wanted to make sure there was no one I knew or who my parents knew on it. I was thinking how would I deal with it if there was. Has anyone been in this situation, perhaps seen any active Jw's on the site. If so, did you inform or warn any other JW's you cared about? How they deal with it?
This site really depressed me. The cases were truly disgusting.. its sad to look at the pages and pages of monsters.

.... But maybe she is saying that she is going to visit both places and wants to find friends in both countries?
um... no. I thought the other thing. It was a surprise impulsive decision from my husband, we are meeting friends who are staying there. I have always thought that Amsterdam was the capital of Denmark, but hey, how many of you non - Australians know what the capital of Australia is?

Unbelievable experiences at assemblies or conventions
by Dimples inwhat experience at an assembly or convention caused you to raise your eyebrows in disbelief?.
one that comes to mind is a 5 year old conducting several bible studies.
wasn't it hard enough for an adult to get a bible study?

I hated the experiences that were given from the platform. I took my non dub husband to an assembly once where this young girl about 14 or 15 was relating her experiences. She left school in year nine to become a regular pioneer with the encouragement of her parents. He couldnt believe that everyone was applauding. He was completely horrified.
I think all the young teenage dubs used to dread the "pop culture" talk. What latest TV series or band was banned for young dubs. We all used to cringe during that talk.
The dramas are so crap now its unbelievable. I remember when their used to be so much effort put into the things. Cool costumes, dramatic music, only semi - apalling acting. Now its always the same. That bloody paper mache rock they use year after year and that moth eaten wool rug on the ground reprezenting sheep. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Scandal? Dubs I know have been attending the RSL for years. I know many who are members. And claiming the dole and pioneering? Thats all part of the great Aussie dub lifestyle.
