If these kids intrigue you, here's the boy again:

It is not clear whether the kids are being 'managed,' the Japanese, Korean and Hongkong music scenes are strongly commercialised and have refined the discipline and training of young singers into an art form. I suspect that such a management group may be behind their development.

Hopefully one of the sites that specialise in archiving JW information may be able to include the material they have collected. -

Same sex attraction, as a behaviour can be predicted.
by fulltimestudent inbeing ever ready to note information that demonstrates christian idiocy in general and jw idiocy in particular, i was interested in news of this particular research that has been doing the rounds of science oriented news sources this week.. christianity in general and jwism in particular, have viciously persecuted same sex attracted people, thus demonstrating their peculiar hypocrisy.
most christians (the jw brand and other brands) squeal like a speared pig when they suffer any treatment that they call persecution, but are always willing to persecute same sex attracted people (and anyone else that stands outside their narrow-minded vision of the world).. most same sex attracted people will testify that their romantic attraction to the same sex was not a clear cut choice, but was something they grew up with.
(gay by nature).

Being ever ready to note information that demonstrates Christian idiocy in general and JW idiocy in particular, I was interested in news of this particular research that has been doing the rounds of science oriented news sources this week.
Christianity in general and JWism in particular, have viciously persecuted same sex attracted people, thus demonstrating their peculiar hypocrisy. Most Christians (the JW brand and other brands) squeal like a speared pig when they suffer any treatment that they call persecution, but are always willing to persecute same sex attracted people (and anyone else that stands outside their narrow-minded vision of the world).
Most same sex attracted people will testify that their romantic attraction to the same sex was not a clear cut choice, but was something they grew up with. (Gay by nature). But evidence that same sex attraction is an innate desire has not been clearly established. Now from the study of epigenetics comes this news, (I've selected the Science Daily version).
Epigenetic algorithm accurately predicts male sexual orientation
Date: October 8, 2015
Source: American Society of Human Genetics
Summary: An algorithm using epigenetic information from just nine regions of the human genome can predict the sexual orientation of males with up to 70 percent accuracy, according to new research. Beyond the genetic information contained in DNA, the researchers examined patterns of DNA methylation across the genome in pairs of identical male twins.- Most readers of this site have a reasoned tolerance of same sex attraction. Only a few conflicted individuals seem willing to dispute that tolerance these days. They are usually dealt with swiftly, which is I suggest not the best way to deal with what is almost certainly a personal, inner conflict with their own same sex attraction.
- But whether tolerant or conflicted I think most will be interested in the process by which certain genetic information is used or not used as an individual develops to maturity.

... and you may also like to listen to some ancient music - its billed as the oldest song ( I suggest they should say 'oldest known' song) in the world; A Sumerian hymn composed about 3400 years ago.

Are the GB very intelligent men with higher than average IQ? Or are they stupid men who were put in their position by sheer “LUCK”
by John Aquila inare the governing body of the wt wickedly smart with extremely high iq or are they leaders of the wt because they were at the right place at the right time.
(in other words, pure luck )-think lottery.
ive seen them talk in jwtv and you can never convince anyone in the whole world that these guys are in the same category as someone smart or cunning like jim simons who founded renaissance technologies or bill gates.

Basic education + unsophisticated thinking = A Christian, according to 1 Corinthians 1:26.
(in case you've forgotten that text reads:
For consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, NASB )

Does Anyone Still Believe in God?
by LaurenM indo any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?
even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.
the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.

Another poster said:
Can you not fathom a being greater than humans that may be millions of years beyond our knowledge?
If he's such a clever bastard, then he should find it easy to talk down to us.
But if you're conceptualising the god of the bible in this statement, then the YHWH/jesus combo god shows a distressing tendency to think on a purely human level. Which of course, is natural, because the history of the YHWY/jesus is totally imagined. Not one of his/her described actions (miracles) can be supported by observation.
