well i spent a few weeks putting this one together it took sooooo much longer than i thought it would, but as you know, a few of us many of us on jwnet spend way too much time fighting the "watchtower power" hehe.
here's a couple paragraphs:.
so i had been thinking about how hard it can be to tell the difference between a high quality product, the "genuine article", and a knockoff or an inferior product recently.
@SD-7 - So true about Catholics!! And the Dubbs have become way worse than the religion they have derided all these years, how ironic. Ray Franz talked plenty about those comparisons in his books.
BTW no $$$ is needed Bro no shipping no nothing just fill out the form and click.
this is my personal review of the memorial talk for this year.
take into account that this is a new "outline".
i put "outline" in quotes because.
These memorial talks haven't changed much in decades. I gave a few of them back in the days and wish I could take back the bull$hit I slung in my ignorance.
Such an UN-celebration!
this year is not going so great.
lost my love, got forgotten on my birthday, car got hit the day before my birthday, car got hit yet again last weekend, and today i got a flat tire.
what the f did i do to karma to deserve this crap?
You are in my thoughts bro-- HANG ON it's gonna get better. You got a lot of friends here and we are pulling for you. PM me anytime if you wanna talk!
here it is folks.... http://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/family/children/become-jehovahs-friend/videos/pray-anytime/.
sophia takes center stage on this one.. .
cedars.
Actually very good quality and catchy too. It will definitely help indoctrinate the youth on the name "JEHOVAH" also, which is part and parcel of the brand name(s) they are selling to their constituents.
the announcement was something like "[name] got checked".well if he ain't got df'ed then what does this mean?is it based on the bible?where does this policy come from?how is the rest of the congregation supposed to behave to that person in a situation like this?what happened in the background anyway?is he checked for a period of time or what?any restrictions?.
XPeterX can you be a little more specific? Was there a talk about his/her wrongdoing? What was the exact wording of the announcement? "Checked" is not a WT Org term. (unless we're talking another language and you are translating perhaps)
In the years I was an elder we never announced a "marked" person by name, and unless something's changed recently the El-durs went outside the WT policy on that one...

We are in the UN-witnessing work these days...
the latest magazine has an article about being like noah- and the parallels between jws and noah are uncanny- it's amazing really!
here's a couple of the pics:.
(yes the captions have been tweaked a little...but not much!
@Sab - Windowless ark, windowless kingdom halls? Coincidence? I think not!
That's perfect- great observation and one more brick in the wall of evidence that the Washtowel is Jeehoover's channel!
there is discussion of doomsday cults at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/doomsday_cult, and much of it aligns closely with watchtower predictions and behaviour, so i was wondering why jehovah's witnesses are not mentioned.
here are some quotes from the article:.
doomsday cult is an expression used to describe groups who believe in apocalypticism and millenarianism, and can refer both to groups that prophesy catastrophe and destruction, and to those that attempt to bring it about.
"They announced that the world had in fact ended in 1914, and if the rest of us hadn't noticed, that was our lookout. It is astonishing in the face of such transparent evasions that this religion has any adherents at all. But religions are tough. Either they make no contentions which are subject to disproof or they quickly redesign doctrine after disproof. The fact that religions can be so shamelessly dishonest, so contemptuous of the intelligence of their adherents, and still flourish does not speak very well for the tough-mindedness of the believers. " Carl Sagan

i found this kind (but strange) obituary written by prince in entertainment weekly recently:.
.
i hope they don't hire prince to write mine when i kick the bucket someday!.
You're right Lois. However Prince did write some great songs, such as Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2U".
