  Suddenly, the Internet is trustworthy when an accusation is made about a faithful member of the congregation, so long as it's not against the faithful slave or accusing an elder of child molestation. So, we'd like to meet with you.

  Loved that sd-7

  Grand Theft Auto 5: Patterson Edition

  recently, i have heard several comments during the watchtower study regarding how today's ultra-violent entertainment might actually be "training and preparing people to butcher their own families when the great tribulation hits.

  " this rather dystopian thought was also alluded to in several convention talks within the past year or so.. how do you feel about this?

  while there is no doubt that explicitly violent media is abundantly available in this day and age, do you feel that this is a plausible conclusion to draw?

  training and preparing people to butcher their own families when the Great Tribulation hits."

  That assumes that there WILL be a great tribulation

  I think that might be the weak link in their arguement.

  On another note, is todays entertainment more or less violent than the Roman Arenas?

  Moving House

  just had an offer accepted on our first house- we are going to be grown up and getting a mortgage!

  scary.... .

  anyway, i was thinking that we are moving to a totally new area and eventually there's going to be a knock at the door and too weary-looing sisters brandishing bibles and brochures.

  Hi faundy. Thats good news for you both.

  In answer to your question, I'd just say not interested thanks, and close the door. Why look for complications.

  Would any of your family be likely to pass on your new address though?

  stuckinamovement and cadellin:

  I'd just picked up on the same phrase and was thinking of something to say.

  I'm all in agreement with you.

  As your story gently makes its way around the world (thanks internet), passing from time zone to time zone,

  I'd like to add my welcome to you burnedout.

  I look forward to hearing your views on the many things discussed here at JWN

  I now have double nationality, which is rather amusing. I can pick the best of both worlds.

  I find different cultures facinating. When on holiday overseas, I love to get off the beaten track a little and mix with the grass roots natives. Its very enriching.

  Maybe a gift that the borg has left us with, is an easier acceptance of other races.
