That’s why I can not attend any JW meeting: the stupid quotes and answers without any proof. It’s 90% stupid ratio that leads to Gorby’s irritation.

Today's W.T when it mentioned Depression and Anxiety
by Isambard Crater inour co-ordinator put his hand up and commented saying that people who go on about how depressed or anxious they are just need to stop giving in to impulses and show more self control without letting their emotions rule their lives.. if anyone from the media, a government agency or some other public body heard a comment like that, they'd have a hard time exercising self control over the rubbish this elder spouted, which my friends and family with genuine depression found insulting..

Hitachi TV Review
by The Fall Guy ini have never reviewed a product before, but having purchased a hitachi 50 inch full hd lcd tv at the weekend, i thought i'd share my experience.
hitachi tv's are now made in turkey, and not by the hitachi company.
the uk's sole supplier is the argos company.

For most of the western JW’s with kindergarten education this video is like eating cheesecake. This is the reason why many think they are the true religion.
Sanderson is giving a Tin Tin attitude example, irrisponsible for a religion leader.
Left the Russian’s JW’s allone when they most needed him. Jesus would stay. He did not call the Jeruzalem travel desk.

YPA change of picture
by dozy inanybody got any idea why the cover picture on the young people ask book was changed?
they removed the picture of the boy bottom right & superimposed a different head.
maybe the guy got dfd or maybe it was to change it to an asian guy rather than 2 caucasians?

Watchtower had different issues with illustrations of local witness. No white people in those magazines (i think that is not injust).
Kind of local marketing.

This week's "Give Us Your Money" meeting item.
by freddo inif you went to it, (or go later this week) how was it handled?
just the video or some commentary too?.
i have heard of a few negative comments from some that attended - one jw even openly said to me "not very encouraging, all they go on about is money lately" and another (a serving elder, no less) said "someone's got to pay for all those lawsuits".

JWs - Liberals or Conservatives?
by neat blue dog inwhere they stand is a strange mixture.
yes, they don't agree with abortion and homosexuality, they believe in the bible and wear skirts and ties to church .
but in many ways they're liberal.

The leadership is far right conservative.

Remember the First "Young People Ask..." VHS?
by Cimarrona indo y'all remember the young people ask tape that came out in the late 90s about "bad association"?
i was a fairly small child with teenage siblings and watched it often (with family and alone cause i thought it was the inside scoop on older kids).
that was back when worldly was still very much so a part of dubspeak (i think they started encouraging people to stop saying it in the mid to late 2000s).

The format YPA was not bad at all, at that moment in time, was my opinion. Just like the book about all world religions (that never made it to the bookstudy... because of reasons). Both books, with the Greatest Man book, were refreshing to me, after all the Fred Franz oracle books.
I think, at the end of the 80's and beginning of the 90's, it was not bad to have this information... some topics I never dare to think of (:
