It's probably not plagerized, they sell their music to distribution website that artists can buy rights to use it.
howeve it is strange that they need to go to a "worldly" source.
this whole series of videos have a lot of stock video in them.

I was talking with my wife last night after showing her this video. In the past I have always said that I hated the ORG but could forgive the individuals. After this year, this video and the other videos, I'm having a hard time saying that anymore. It's too much like war criminals to me. At some point you can't say I was just following rules, if you can't think for yourself around this horrible display the ORG is putting on, my sympathy for you is quickly dying.

I'm getting disfellowshipped
by raven inhi everyone, a bit of an update here on my continuing disaster of a situation.. (refer to my previous posts for the full story) my mom met with me yesterday for dinner, it was nice.. however, she brought up the fact that because i live with my boyfriend and how everything has gone down, i will be disfellowshipped.. i think the elders basically have enough proof of this.. due to the anonymous tipper (still have no clue who it was, i live in another town 100's of miles away from my old congregation territory), and my mom telling them.
i'm not sure when they will announce it, or if they will contact me prior.. at this point i feel so emotionally dead i don't care- on the other hand, i don't want to be disfellowshipped because i do not want to loose a relationship with my mom.
that is the whole reason i tried fading out.. .

The hardest thing i have yet to come to terms with regarding my DF is similar to what I fear for your situation.
The day before my DF my mother would talk to me, the day after she wouldn't. To clarify, she knew what was going on in my life.
I have a hard time forgiving her for that. It's simply fear of man (the org), not fear of god. In my case it was simply celebrating holidays, basically, apostasy, but waiting until the DF to cease contact.

They really love the Job story, like David, it's one of their favorite go-to for swapping the org for god. -

I agree with this being counter-productive. I believe just a few private conversations with those in attendance would be much more fruitful. If you are going to attend and pretend to be joe public, why not ask questions, use the Socratic method to make them think while not being disruptive. -

June 2016 WT (study edition) Bashing Higher Education....AGAIN!
by ToesUp inparagraph 14: .
"this means that we need to examine our heart constantly to see if it is being enticed by worldly entertainment, associations, and styles of dress and grooming.
or the love of the world might involve efforts to attain “great things,” such as through the pursuit of higher education.

reading the comment made by sir82, reminds me when I questioned the stance on education while still in it hurt my head, because so many things you can do with a education open up opportunities that could be used for the org. Teaching or engineering for example, you could get a job in just about any country you wanted. when I was younger the org was growing in Japan by leaps and bounds, if you taught english you could get a job very easy.
yet they choose to talk us out of school, then ask for people with degrees to come to bethel and work on the new computer system.

so they won't need any of this in the future? what about all the Assembly halls they are claiming to be building. and wouldn't you crate and ship all those small items to Temple Farm?
