How about being interviewed by Howard Stern?
This would be awesome.
I'm sure Billy West could do a dead-on Tony Morris impression.

so, how many times have we heard this expression (or a variation of it):.
"jehovah's spirit seems to be blocked here in the congregation...perhaps he is bringing something to light...etc".
it seems that the org often uses this expression, and links it with the "fact" that god wont bless a cong as much,(or at all) if there is "stuff" or "sins" being carried out.. so, why is it then that the cong i am in is experiencing its best years of activity in all aspects?
Some Metamucil should clear that blockage.
i expected the streaming of such a large meeting to focus on 100 years of kingdom rule.
not a single mention.
instead more drivel about insignificant things like yoga pants.
I'll tell you, 101, 107, 113, 120 years does not have the same "ring" as "a century of kingdom rule."
this is the scuttlebutt in one of the "bethel congregations" by us.. no details as to exactly what this "faith-testing" announcement might be.. anyone else hear any of this pre-zone visit hype?.

BILLYTEB - Watched CHICAGO Saturday night after the mtg just to see that number! Just about says it all. (Excellent movie BTW)
i have enjoyed reading your comments during the past four years.
deep down inside, i have always been agnostic.
the first few chapters in genesis are contradictory and differing.. no one has ever been able to answer my question: "why was satan ever created?".
Welcome GAME1914OVER!
i think now, more than ever, this psuedo-religion needs to be exposed.
they are harming people mentally, emotionally, and financially.. they are a registered charity which does not perform charitable works.. they are pillaging kingdom hall funds which were voluntarily given by the friends for the benefit of their own congregation.. they discourage higher education for young people while encouraging them to donate their entire life to "kingdom interests".
they wilfully and deliberately pull the wool over the eyes of the rank and file with their ever changing doctrines.. .
Let's keep on exposing them, each of us doing what we can. We owe it to our friends and family who are still members.
Actually. . ...
I plan on not continuing to expose the Society. . . .
because they do a WAAAY better job at it than I do!*
*see this past weekend's zone meeting

This is because it's a religion that is only interested and concerned in outward appearance.
This is also the real reason why they "hate" pedophilia.

Ok, I'm now convinced that GC is NoRoomForGeorge reborn.
I'll second that BALTAR.

Ok, here is a breakdown of the reaction to the meeting from my family organized their Dub status:
Uber Dubs with somewhat somewhat open but still brainwashed minds: didn't discuss much with them today, but the afternoon was filled with "goofs" on "tight pants" and tardiness. So basically no one in this camp is running for the hills, but they certainly thought it was over the top.
"Weak" Dubs (my favorite people, and why I'm sticking around): wife had very brief conversation with this family member, but will talk again later. Basically, the husband is flipping out. He says what he heard was stupid, sexist, bigoted nonsense and is completely disgusted. Yay!!
My wife: so just looking at a thread I made about two weeks ago where I posited that my wife was a little more than "half out" after watching GBTV. . . . ..

After yesterday, I think she's about 90% out and going fast! Almost too fast! Where are the brakes on this thing?
Again, I must thank the GB. I couldn't get my family out of the cult without you!
my wife went out of curiosity.
she is out enough to where it doesn't affect our marriage, but she keeps it a secret from her family and others.
she is beginning to understand what it means to give over your thinking to an organization, and once she works that out there will be no going back.. so she went to the branch visit.
That is an awesome message! Beautifully put.
