Minimums - What Has He Done?
Played the Devil's Advocate, even if accidentally. Thank you, red dot, for starting this discussion.
i still never really understood what these phantoms ever did.
i've read many praiseworthy comments lauding the site or people behind it.
but in reality, what major good have they done to change jehovah's witnesses' views on blood?.

jumping [back] in... for a sec.... greetings to you all, the household of god, israel... those who go with... and all others here!
the greatest of love and peace to you all!.
i'm just sticking my head in to say (because several have asked and it's not fair of me to make them have to answer for me, so):.
Welcome back, Shelby! Take a deep breath, count to ten, and smile at the nay-sayers. Glad to hear you're doing well!
the watchtower has depicted sparlock as a commercial plastic toy to be thrown into the garbage with impunity.. i submit to you all that he is something far greater.
sparlock represents all the hopes and dreams of jw children everywhere.
he is the magic of childhood.
Botch, you nailed it! The video is all about doing what makes Jahthe GB happy. Good children must not act like children.
Did you notice this? It wasn't about good and bad. It wasn't about what makes mommy and daddy happy--they don't matter--only obeying the Watchtower is important!
i know, another sparlock thread.
but i just have to express this!
i am so proud of what we have done with sparlock.. youtube is being flooded with videos.
LOL with Billy the Ex
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." -- Arthur C. Clarke
So if Jah hates magic, no wonder he doesn't want Caleb applying to MIT!

Wouldn't it be funny if the WTS decided to can the DVDs because of our exposure of Sparlock?
They can't deny they made it--the DCMA "take-down" notices they sent to Amelia Ashton are a legal claim that they own the copyrights to the Sparlock videos. The Watchtower have admitted it: Sparlock is their baby!
today my oldest son shawn is graduating from high school and it's my birthday.
i'm a proud mama.
.
Congratulations to both of you!
it is funny how this site works.
people lurk, they join, they post, and then they fade away because they have healed enough to focus on other positive things.
that is pretty much where i am at.
Being stuck no more, you now can move on and live life on your own terms. Farewell, SIAM, and good luck to you!
i've been in the vale of deep shadows, but am feeling more and more like myself.. i'm grateful to my doctors and modern medicine.. sylvia.
Sylvia, it was a wonderful surprise to check in and see that you're back! I hope the treatments help.
hi all, i have been a "lurker" here for some time and feel like i want to share my experience in the hope that it relieves me of dark thoughts i can't shake.
i was "brought into the truth" by a guy, he had to let me study with a girl of course but always had me ear marked to preach in bangladesh one day.
fyi this is a guy who was disfellwoshipped many times and once shaved his head and sent it to bethel apparently it's something to do with some form of repentance in the bible or something?
Welcome! You had a close call, but made a safe escape.
You summed up the Watchtower nicely yourself: "all I could think was the men who know the words but it's not in their hearts." I can think of no more succint way to describe what's wrong in that organization.
you get ya wife back.
ya car back.
ya job back.
You come out of the bar sober, with money in your pocket, and wearing your own shirt!
