2014 Annual Meeting not being streamed worldwide?
by Richard_I ini haven't heard a peep about the 2014 annual meeting being shown worldwide (or at least across north america) like it was last year.
they made a big deal with the am last year, congs had to get the projectors and screens for the showing, and we were told in advance of the time and location to attend.
but i have heard absolutely nothing this year, at least here in canada.

Don't want to give the story away, but, it's about, a family gets forced out of India. They are in the Indian cuisine business. The young man in the family has a gift and is a great chef. They end up in France and compete with another french restaurant. Within the story is racial prejudice that turns out positive. Oprah, and Spielberg directed it

Skinny dipping in the new order?
by donny inthe jw's are quick to tell you that when jehovah has finished kicking the ass of those who do not acknowledge the teachings of the watchtowers governing body in new york state, that those who survive will live forever in a restored paradise on earth.
the same goes for those who are resurrected during the 1000 year reign of jesus and survive satan being let loose "for a little while" at the end.. they are also quick to tell you that everything will be just as it was for adam and eve before the latter decided she needed a fruit fix and then got her hubby high on it as well.. and when you view the illustrations in their publications showing what they view this paradise to be, it shows a world of lush color.
the deep greens of all the trees and grass, the clean blue skies, puffy white clouds and tables covered in a plethora of fresh fruits and vegetables representing just about every major color.

According to rule 118, in the new scroll, spoiler edition, it says, "Everyone must strip off thier clothes". But rule # 119 says, " You must appoint, Chaperones from the four courners of the earth".

Are we starting to treat DF people differently?
by Quarterback insome may remember the time when the private study edition of the wt wasn't to be made available to outsiders, and the df'd.. now, with the recent boe letter, sept 1, 2014, it specifically states that jw.org is making the km available even for df'd individuals.. do you sense a new trend developing?.

"We", could mean WT society, or members in good or semi good, or bad standing.

Are you better than this religion?
by Quarterback injust observing this family in our congregation.
the parents are in the faith, and active.
the children, are grown-up, but viciously opposed.

Wow, Finkelstein. That is really extreme. Sorry for hearing about that harsh treatment.

Yes, Finkelstein, this is true with diehard members. The experience I have identified above have a blood is thicker than water policy. The WT does have some issues with their DF family members policy and that is why they constantly remind us to keep obeying this practice. There are many JW families that have children that would have been DF'd but they faded, and missed that crazy punishment.
In certain family circles, you can get away with saying anything and it is overlooked.

Here's the point. We don't want JW's to be critical of people who don't want the religion, but if we are non practicing ourselves, are we just as critical?
Why not just show respect for their parents beleif system and move on?
