  Don't touch that dirty Microphone

  by Quarterback in

  yuck..sitting in front of me, today, i saw an elder picking his nose while his wife was commenting on the wt study.

  then with the same hand, he grabbed the microphone and passed it back to the microphone carrier.

  he didn't even have a kleenex.

  I think these dirty habbits are away of life throughout the general public and not a jw only thing.

  For example I work in the emergency services field, and I see repeatedly firemen, including fire commanders, take a piss or a dump and just walkout of the toilet withoutwashing their hands. These are airport fireys and are resposable for first call first aid over the entire airport and surrounding land.

  Don't trust anyone, that, they are going to be clean.

  My advise, keep a number of hand sanitizers handy

  Aust. Election in 1 week - A review of Kevin Rudd, PM

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. social
  2. current

  i'm still determined not to vote - just to write something unpleasant about pollies on the ballot paper.

  if i lived in victoria, i just may, as an act of sheer bastardry, vote for julian assange (of wikileaks fame), but i don't live in vic, so i cant.. my objection to voting is that the political choice offers two self-perpetuating oligarchies (who are something like the governing body).

  they make up a slate of candidates and election advertising consists of attempting to persuade swinging voters to vote for their slate of candidates.. anyway, i noted that k.rudd has made a video in chinese, aimed apparently at mainland china.

  "Worlds Apart" A danish movie about a young coming of age Jehovahs Witness , screening on SBS2 tonight in Victoria

  i know their have been screenings of this movie before , but this notice is for any newbies here that may not have seen it previously.

  it is scheduled to screen at 10:25 pm on ch.32 sbs2 sun.25/8/13 .

  maybe other states in australia can view it on-line , or request it be shown by sbs in their state.. it is an interesting movie , and apart from minor flaws , pretty accurate despite the beard,though i am told the danes are a bit more liberal than the west.. the real / actual jehovahs witness this story is based on has a cameo appearance near the end of this movie in the train sequence.. please let me know if you watch it and your thoughts about it .. smiddy.

  Complex PTSD and Ex JW's

  by JRK in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been diagnosed with complex ptsd by my therapist due to events of abandonment and abuse as a child.

  the cult experience of being raised as one of jehovah's witness was a major factor.

  i think that the sparlock video and the conti case has brought emotional flashbacks to some of us here, so i wanted to post information that i have found helpful.
