a so called friend of mine sent me this link to a music video.. the song seems to be ridiculing jehovah's witness's and their practise.. but more disconcerting is the visual content, which actually shows the assault and murder of a jehovah's witness.. i can appreciate there is an element of humour involved, but find it in pretty poor taste.. and in no way a positive message to the populace and for the safety of jehovah's witness's in general.. .

Welcome.
But more disconcerting is the visual content, which actually shows the assault and murder of a Jehovah's Witness.
Not quite, no one was murdered and I doubt anyone in the video is a JW, but we get the point..
I hope this isnt you spamming it btw for extra hits on your video.
if a brother wants to reach out to be elder, yet brothers are holding him back for dubious reasons, can/should a brother approach the co and ask him what he needs to be done to be appointed or perhaps having a discussion along the lines of why the elders are holding him unfairly back.
anybody have any experiences along these lines?
is this a good strategy?
Why on earth would you want to be made an elder or MS?
I had a period of 7 years as an MS and wasnt far off being made an elder when I moved away for a job and changed congregations, I wasnt bothered about being an MS much in the new cong and working lots and lots of hours made it harder.
So I wasnt appointed an MS in the new cong, (yay!) ....about 8 months later I return to my old hall again, fully intent to get on with the troof and be reappointed again as an MS asap. I made that clear straight away to the PO.
Well i tried and tried and 7 years went by and there was always some little excuse given as to why I wasnt appointed. So I gave up saying fuck em to myself....Nothing could persuade me to reach out after that and within a few years I was doing research and starting my fade.
Later it turns out it was the PO all along blocking me from being reappointed as revenge for me exposing his own sons dirty deeds years before, before I was appointed an MS in the very 1st place.
What a mindfuck this cult is....

i haven't posted in 3 years.

Awesome!
geez I seem to say that a lot these days, I think it must be waay outdated by now LOL ...
Yep, the freedom is bloody wonderful....
i was always told it was satan and his demons making people think they exist.
not sure.
i always thought the guy that excavated king tutenkahmun had a curse on him though.. .
Deja Vu doesnt make you a prophet or mean it is any manifestation of the supernatural, i get it quite often and very strong myself as do lots of people.

Dreams within dreams can even contain deja vu making you wake up thinking you've dreamed a dream that came true, all kinds of crazy shit can go on in the mind, and that is exactly where it is all taking place.
You think you saw a (one per your 1st post in this thread) ghost aged 5, You claim you KNOW what you saw, ... you don't, you only know what you think you saw, you also vaguely claim dreams that come true as another supernatural experience as well.
You still believe in Satan, I assume you still believe in God, demons, angels, heaven, bible prophecy etc etc too. Thats is not a very good basis to formulate logical unbiased conclusions about the stuff you think you experience, you are almost guarenteed to seek an external explanation because of it. In fact you may well DESIRE the supernatural explanation of it as that might mean you are special somehow. Many take that road.
whats your xbox live tag?
anyone fancy a gta bf4'or cod blast?
why havent we done this earlier lol.
My XBOX Live account lapsed in Novemeber, I play on a 360 Slim with RGH chip in it so offline gaming for me....
If you have the Freestyle Dash set up right and port forwarding on your router you can do system link games like COD over the internet though....
didn't know if this has been addressed before , but it's kinda interesting.
when we were witnesses we were always told,oh!
don't look at horoscopes or read anything about your sign because it's demonized !
Even WMF telling us his star sign! He'll be blustering on about how he's changed his mind any time now I should think.
Nope, still a Scorpio...
And no, come to think of it that was the last time I read anything about it, so thats over 4 years ago now.
is it okay to play as a jehovah's witness?
or is it just a conscience thing?.
I havent read all that Fink has posted in here but I personally am not comfortable with 8 year old boys playing 18 rated games, or even some 16 rated games either. But parents will almost always relent and the kids end up playing them in the end.
I've seen my nephews nephew aged 6 or 7 playing Halo Reach a few years back and the aggression and transformation of that little boy was disturbing to watch. Also it was disturbing that he was good at it. Turns out he is epilepctic now and I very much doubt him being exposed to that level of intensity at that early an age helped him one little bit.
I LOVE computer games, mainly FPS, and have played them since childhood when they 1st came out, but the only computer games available when I was about 10 was Asteroids and Space Invaders machines... I do sometimes wonder how the childrens brains cope with all the very realistic graphics they see now in games, I cant imagine being 6 again and playing Halo Reach and not being mentally overwhelmed with the experience.
I think only a very few who are already dangerous due to mental imbalance would be better served not playing any violent games, I dont see the young in society as any more violent now than it was 30 years ago. (But then I do live in the UK, in the quiet countryside so WTF do I know LOL)
