my mom studied with me in the paradise book before i went to kindergarten.
i remember the book vividly.
it creeped me out as a kid.
My first exposure was to the "Let God Be True" book when I was about 7 years old. Later when the "Paradise" book was released, we switched over to that.
There were two versions of "LGBT" -- a green one and a brown one. I can't recall which one we used, but it had to have been the later of the two.
as a youg man this stunned me when i studied the original "youth" book 97% had done it so i thought soo that's pretty much everyone i guess the 3% were witness youth!
also "awake" claimed 90% of students had accessed porn at some time.
everyone is doing it i guess 10% are the witness youth...how dumb was i?.
As a show of solidarity I suggest that 97% of the folks who read this should rub one off before closing this thread.
the sunday speaker was one of those very smooth younger ones with the "look".
store bought haircut and a very pretty wife ( the kind that makeup isn't needed, side point).. i tongue tied a comment to my wife about maybe he was a bethelite who was reassigned and said bethelout by mistake.
i like the word.
"Bethelout"!!!
Nyuk nyuk nyuk!
Dr. Freud would have enjoyed that and said, "Ja, ja, Das ist ein gutes Wort" (Yes, yes, That is a good word).
it seems that some people just aren’t ready to put those masks aside even if they are fully vaccinated!
some can’t help but think their brains aren’t ready for “normal”..
This is my mask. If you see me, say "hi," and I'll eat your soul SLOWLY.
awake!
"if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.
because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers.

The Watchtower is looking to drive the creator of Dubtown into debt. Dubtown's lawyers should demand that the WTB&TS pay defense legal expenses plus a punitive award for intentional infliction of distress.
and i noticed the following picture.
it seems like that it is not normal for any speaker to give the talk so close to the back wall.
i would like to know why he was standing very close to the back wall.
I think MeanMrMustard and pseudoxristos are correct; they wanted to avoid having the background get cluttered.
Next time they'll need to build a bigger flat and anchor it to the stage securely.
i am finishing to read the entire bible (nwt 2013) for my first time (my fault) and i wrote down hundreds, maybe thousands, of questions not clear to me, but one especially came in my mind meditating on god's name.. if i wanted to summarize the entire bible in one phrase i would say (even before the kingdom): god’s name sanctification.. god is jealous about his name.
he does everything for the love of his name, and he wants to be called and prayed using his name.
no doubt about all this (repeated several times in the bible), but it involves the pronunciation of his name.. god left us his name in the form of יהוה which is unpronounceable.
I would just go with "Yoddy Wahee," but we haven't spoken since I discovered he was just a sock puppet that Fred Franz kept in his desk drawers at Bethel in Fred's "Sanctum Sanctorum,"
Fred only brought Yoddy out when he felt "Moved by the Spirit" (horny).
The Bethel Barber was called to Fred's room weekly to keep Fred's hand's properly groomed.

How do you feel about Hemp CBDs?
Some people find them helpful, some don't. CBDs are not marijuana and have no hallucinatory effect.
The are legal everywhere in the USA.
