  ok so most of you guys know already that i am going through the reinstatement process for my parents but i do have a partially sinister plan which i will not mention here since someone told me that there are b-lites that read boards like this.

  last night and it was the funniest experience i have ever seen.

  besides that the brother doing the sound and video screwed up the whole thing when showing the videos and it took 3 brothers to fix it after 10 minutes, the whole thing was a joke.

  i think the main reason Watchtower is using animated and/or silhouette characters in videos is because they don't want to put actors onscreen that later on go "apostate". Hence we see very high-level persons used for broadcasts. At this point Watchtower does not know who it can really trust to be around 3-5 years from now.

  I thought, It really was true............"They really didn't give a shit about us."

  And it did not have to become so because it was so.--Genesick 1:1

  Bethel is a stink hole of persecution. Always has been and always will be so long as its leadership is in the religion business.

  Steven Lett asks for money again

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the 2016 january tv.jw.org broadcasting has a clear message: jw.org needs more money!.

  the 2 months of donation increase is not enough: the thousands of projects are not a 2 month project.. so: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you (heh heh heh) and send us more!

  personal conclusion: if i had any doubts that the society is sincere, this openly money grabbing has made my perception complete.

  the girl next door writes:

  What I am arguing for is the negligence in identifying the hypocrisy of a community that has shared illegal copies of CoC and WT copyrighted material for decades, now suddenly finding their moral compass and justifying a separation of compliance to law between two entities, one they support and one they do not. Seems clear to me. I am surprised by the obfuscation of so many participating.

  There is no obfuscating for me. When a baby-killer is on the loose I have no qualm whatsoever about whether I've infringed on some copyright they may or may not hold. If divulging whatever is true does in anyway whatsoever reduce the deaths I'll gladly do my part.

  Oh, and I don't see any hypocrisy in my action. I'll act the same way no matter who the baby-killer happens to be.

  Now, if you want to talk about a copyright owner who's not killing babies, that's another thing.

  
  Children suffering death!

  Proud baby-killers!

  Drink Driving

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. humour

  with the christmas almost upon us i would like to share a personal experience with you about drinking and driving.. as you may know the local police are having a serious go at drink drivers this year... well, a couple of days ago i was out for an evening with friends and had a small number of drinks before dinner, followed by some rather nice red wine.

  feeling jolly i still had the sense to know that i may be very slightly over the limit.. that's when i did something that i've never done before - i took a taxi home.. sure enough on the way home there was a police road check, but since it was a taxi they waved it past.

  i arrived home safely without incident.. this was a real surprise as i had never driven a taxi before, i don't know where i got it and now that it's in my garage i don't know what to do with it.. any ideas?.

  Timely advice Simon. The life we save might be our own, not to mention loved ones and/or innocent bystanders. Take a cab!
