Lol. I actually had a chuckle picturing that scene as a spectator in the parking lot. Watching you walk away from the mental grenade you threw at the brother like:

So, is it the publicity, or act itself that "brings reproach on Jehovah's name"?
by stuckinarut2 inas we all sadly know, a common expression used by the society and elders in cases of abuse, or scandals, is "if you talk about this, you will bring reproach on jehovah's name!".
this is uttered in order to deter making something known.. but really, if it is a case of abuse, is not the act itself the thing that brings "reproach on jehovah"?.
making it known is not the problem.. rather hiding it, or not disclosing it to authorities is the thing that brings reproach!.

Groundbreaking. Since God sees all things, the act itself should be regarded as the reproachful thing.
I've never thought of it like that. Good post!

I am grateful for leaving the watchtower corporation. Innit!
by punkofnice ini dislike long topics......so here it is.. i suffered for my religion, now it's your turn.. when i first left the corporation my life exploded into a suicidal chaos.. my family broke up.
i lost my so called friends.. luckily, i had worldly friends from all walks of life that supported me, even though they had no idea why i was so suicidal.
in as much as they hadn't left cults.. i went from the corporation to a baptist church.

That is awesome!!! (not the Black Death part, but your band)
The 70s and 80s saw some incredible music from English composers. I had a thing with Jimmy Kaleth (lead singer from Jonesy and Gold) back in '10. He's in Brighton right now. Still on friendly terms : ). Don't want to hijack your thread, but have to share this oldie from Jonesy:

Any Kiwi Elders Here?
by richgirl init's rachel from new zealand here.
i am currently helping a nz journalist source potential interviewees for a short documentary she is making about child sexual abuse issues among jws in new zealand.
nothing of this nature has been seen in the news in nz before so this is quite exciting!

@punkofnice Fkn lol. Mark Sanderson is probably bald because his wife kept harassing him to lose that extra five pounds, so he just shaved off all his body hair.
As for boobies... you know how Baywatch was iconic for Pam Anderson's tits? JW Broadcasting is renown for Mark Sanderson's C-cups. What I'd give to see those puppies jiggling in slow motion.
