Great review WINGCOMMANDER.

Can't believe they got Paul Giamatti to play the dad!

its amazing that they preach that the world is about to come to an end so soon but they won't spend a dime of their own money to get the message out.. i mean think about it, a couple years back a california preacher with less than 100k followers and about 100 millions dollars was able to get his message out that the world was coming to an end in 2012 and people heard about his message globally.

the org on the other hand sold over a billion dollars worth of real estate and hasn't spent a dime to get its message out.

all the halls were built with the local brothers contributions same can be said of circuit assembly and branch sites.

"More will be pioneering as soon as it is acceptable to leave a tract on top of the bar when you have a few pints of beer."

I believe the development of a new "coaster tract" is in full swing.

Kicking the "Gay Habit" at the IC

by breakfast of champions in

heard from a reliable source that this was part of friday's program.

they even interviewed a "former gay man" who "kicked the gay habit".. evidently kicking the "gay habit" is difficult, not unlike quitting smoking or avoiding sugary snacks.

the persons who related this to me found the whole thing to be laughable at best, but honestly seemed quite disturbed by it (which is good!

Disturbing Footnote in Tomorrow's Study Article...

by HeyThere in

article is basicqlly about families where a spouse is working away from home for an extended period, etc...a foot note says basically that some studies have shown that working away from home can cause serious consequences, such as infidelity, homosexuality, or incest.

.

pull it up on jw.org...that is what it says.

Well, if you do work far from home and end up "turning homosexual" . . . . there is hope.

According to the recent IC, you too can "kick the gay habit":

CANTLEAVE/NUGGET - classic! That is good stuff.

BTW - the footnote says "Reports from various countries indicate. . ." This tells me this is the society's branches in different countries reporting this behavior, not a government or scientific survey.

STUCKINARUT- Yes. The terms "kicking the gay habit" and "gay habit" were actually used (apparently more than once)

I did ask if the "brother" giving the talk was Anthony Morris, but they didn't remember ( these we not very "strong" brothers and sisters, mind you - which is good!)

If you were on your death bed, what is the ONE thing you would say you have learnt ?

by new hope and happiness in

i think i would say " you can not change others you can only change your self" .

if you cant think of anything what is the next number in this sequence?.

what do these sums have in common?.

Always ask yourself, "How do I know what I know?"

Most important question a person can ask themself.

Just to clarify:

The speaker at the convention used the expression "kick the gay habit".

In my commentary, however, I sarcastically stated it must be difficult to kick the "gay habit" - like quitting smoking or avoiding sugary snacks. Those are my words, not the speakers.

Sorry if that caused confusion.
