JW-girls on Dutch XFactor

friends

very funny video from 2 jw girls on the dutch xfactor.

it will start at about 2.33.. one of the jury (left) says 'they have such smug faces, they look like jehovah's witnesses'.

when they tell him they are jw's, he's laughing his head off.... http://www.rtl.nl/components/shows/x...ctor_s3_a3.xml .

The Dutch (Netherlands) and the Danish (Denmark) are the most liberal JW's. You can make everything there.

The young JW do everything thats forbidden by the society etcetera

i'm from a small liberal western europe country (on the left side of germany...).

i visited a friend at the mts facility in stragnas, sweden.. most of the mts boys welcomed the many beer crate's in my car!

there was a nice black grand piano in the hall of the mts facility.. at one night i played many elton john songs on the grand piano.

Hi Open Mind,

I did not play "Your Song" , but when I started playing "Philadelphia Freedom" I started seeing the light. At the end of the day "the Sun did go down on me".

Since then I know "That's why they call it the Blues". I did also play "Song for Guy" but at that moment I was thinking " I want love", and I started fading from my "Believe".

Then I played "Sad Songs Say So Much" and light a "Candle in The Wind". This all long before I met "The One".

I hope that my good old friend, who "I don't wanna go on with you like that" does "Have Mercy on the Criminal" when I " Burn Down the Mission"

and "Kissed the Bride".

At one night I played many Elton John songs on the grand piano. "I'm still standing", "Saturday night All right for fighting" and of course "The Bitch is back".

One of the old WTS officials came down the hall to see where the worldly music came from. When he noticed the crowd around the grand piano he went away.

The night "Elton John" ruled at Strangnas ((: instead of the Kingdom Melody's! ((:

It's a little bit funny!

this evening i'm watching the news channels.

i was crying when i saw the news about haiti.. i can not understand if there is a higher power (jehovah / jesus) that this can happen.

if there is loving god, why this poor people have to suffer so much?

The Rise of the Conscious Class

by truthseeker in

"i believe in one god, and no more; and i hope for happiness beyond this life.

i believe the equality of man, and i believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy.

but, lest it should be supposed that i believe many other things in addition to these, i shall, in the progress of this work, declare the things i do not believe, and my reasons for not believing them.

Gorbatchov

Amen! I'm part of this class. Finaly i'm part of a class i'm happy with!

Friends,

Nice posting! I have scenario 3: they took different pictures on the same occasion: they knew Barber had not much days left.

The position of Jarracs is the same, see his suit.

The big question is: why this kind of efficiency for only taking a picture of the top management of the WTS? It's Soviet style PR.

WTS publication: Mankind's Search for God

by Gorbatchov in

friends,.

at the end of the 80's the wts published "mankind's search for god", about the global mainstream religion's.. what's your opinion about this publication?.

i think it was written for use on the weekly bookstudy, there were questions for all paragraphs.. after the publication it was never used at the bookstudy, and it was only rarely used in the congregation.. .

Gorbatchov

Thanks for your reply's! The mankind's Serach for God publication is one of the less WTS books I did not throw away. I can't trow it away. There is a reason: it fascinated me when I was a active JW. For the first time I thought that "our" organisation was interested in other religions (...). It was written differently the normal WTS publications.

I have the same feeling about the "Happiness" book and the "James" book. They are still on my bookshelf. Because they are different.
