  Yes, Cedars was long-winded. But the Rebuttal video was worth watching.

  I was a young kid at a KH. But that was many years ago. I am now over 60.

  Young ones are not interested in the boring dribble coming from the platform. Since they have no history, discussions about generations, 1914, last days have no meaning. Pluse, meeting are very boring. You probably have figured that out.

  Why are Bethelites sitting on each other's laps getting erections? The set of circumstances that create this problem is beyond my imagination. What is going on in Warwick?

  does anyone know where i can get a pdf version of this book?

  i’ve always wanted a physical copy but those seem really hard to come by, and if you look online they’re super expensive.

  thank you.. -jules.

  It looks like you can acquire a book via Amazon, assuming you are able to get a second mortgage on your house. Given the market price of this book, I think I will see my copy.

  Caleb and Sophia Video Mashup to Hard Knock Life

  i thought this video was pretty well done and mildly entertaining to watch.. on another note, i am really hoping some clever ex-jws will do their own animation series with caleb and sophia as young adults trying to leave the org.

  that would be awesome.

  caleb and sophia ... the ex-jw years.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lwoitxaa_u.

  Public Talk quote

  by no-zombie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does anyone who has access to the collection of public talk outlines,and remember the quote "half the world's scientist work on weapons of war" (or words to that effect)?

  i used to have them myself, but sadly they are gone.

  i'd like to follow that quote back to its original source if i can.

  For fear of spreading fake news, here is a link that relates to your question:

  http://www.bmartin.cc/pubs/83Birch.html

  from this article: " It is often noted that somewhere between a quarter and a half of scientists and engineers worldwide are engaged on military projects."

  This obviously is not a primary source. Like they say, if you repeat a story enough times, people think it is true.

  Highly Recommended exJW YouTube Channel

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am a subscriber on youtube for kim and mikey, marc and cora, susan gaskin, stacy lopez, spike r, and several others.

  i recently found a channel called anonni mowse and she is just fantastic.

  she is so down to earth, very educated, and speaks her mind so clearly about her being in the cult.

  They promoted the idea that all this printing was an indication that these were the most widely read magazines in the world. The reality was that they perpetrated the greatest "channel stuffing" scheme in history. Most of these magazines ended up in unused "stacks" in publisher's home. Those few magazines that ended up in the homes of people were never read. I am sure that most of the r&f never read the magazines.
