  ok, so many friends of mine who i've managed to influence with my sith-lord corruption are attending convention this weekend.

  i already attended some time ago.

  i kept the program and took thorough notes, so i plan to properly time a well-prepared sms message to everyone's smartphone with diagrams and a link about endosymbiotic theory just as it's mentioned from the platform during the drama!

  ...followed by a real-time pic of a salted margarita with my bare feet and swimming pool in the background. Caption: "wish you were here, SUCKERS lol!!!"

  Hopefully, that link will give them something of substance to review during their 3-day indoctrination.

  Demonstrations From the Platform

  good evening, all.... still relatively new here so if i'm posting about a topic that's already been run into the ground, i apologize.

  but i just wanted to acknowledge the typical "demo" we all see at meetings, assemblies and conventions.

  even back when i was a good-goody teen dub, my brother, friends and i would jokingly refer to demos as "5-minute illustrations on how to say 'no.'".

  BTW: there was a very overt "anti-iPad" soliloquy at this year's corn-vention.

  a complaint has been registered against you with the federal authorities in the usa.. the complaints center on slander and character assassination emanating from members posting on your jehovah's witnesses network forum, and online stalking.

  all details have now gone to the fbi on federal plaza in new york for their immediate attention.. ([email protected]).

  We're not the ones protecting pedos and sending hemopheliac minors to their deaths. Nor are we teaching that the FBI and its government are the "wild beast" who will be destroyed in the near future.

  Paintball is on the agenda real soon! In fact, most of the JWs who play with us could be potential escapees because they're already doing something they're "not supposed" to do. Each time we play, more and more of out worldly friends and relatives come along (with beer) and the JW players seem to be totally fine with it!

  BTW, while at convention, my bro and I also had a nice hour-long chat about his flood doubts while soaking in the hot tub. I just sat there quietly and let him vent a little and then very subtly said, "Yeah...I find it interesting that even though the society insists it was global and not regional, the Egyptian and Chinese dynasties were totally unperturbed by the water. Maybe pagodas and pyramids float?" And he started laughing.

  Thanks Lore!

  I appreciate 3rd-party perspective. Perhaps my true motives in opening up to him are selfish. I am a loner by nature. Very introverted. But part of me doesn't want the burden of being the only JW in my family to "leave." I guess what appeals to me is the possibility that I may not have the entire load of dissapointing my family on my shoulders. Everytime he made a snide remark about JWs in front of our families during convention weekend, I felt tremendous relief, almost hoping that maybe HE would be the one to sever the ties and I could ride along on his coat tails.

  On the other hand, I'm single, in my 30's and isolated and even I get depressed and have that constant feeling that I need to "look over my shoulder" so no one finds out about my feelings and choices. IF he is doubting too, he may have tremendous depression and internal conflict because he's got a wife and family tethered to him. Ugh... if he is a doubter, he's totally STUCK.

  There are a lot of people in this situation...mentally checked out, but don't wanna pull that band-aid off the arm hair.

  Yes, Gayle

  Even in 2008-2009, the convention I attended in the midwest had ~6,000 but the baptisms were 50-60 people. I've seen other posters on here and all seem to be reporting abyssmal numbers for 2010-2011! I believe YouTube especially is having a profound effect!

  What do you think of the pictures (both illustrations and photos) in WT literature?

  by Chemical Emotions in

  i used to really like the drawings as a kid.

  the artists, i think, are usually pretty good, not so much at portraying emotions but in technical ways.

  the photos always seemed silly to me.. so what do all of you think?.

  Open up the inside covers of the newer TMS book.

  Open up the Daniel and Isaiah books.

  Browse any new WT or Awake! magazine and look at the paintings.

  Hidden penises and very awkward (sexually suggestive) poses, positioning between people and the way staffs, spears and scrolls are grasped in their hands. My buddies and I started noticing this about 10 years ago and they're all painted in the same style. I think this one particular artist is putting these through as a joke. For real... check them out, it's undeniable once you look at them!
