Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho
A shuddering crescendo at the 01:58:40 mark. For those unable to listen through the entire audio, the pull-away quote from Sherrie (in regards to Watchtower's deleterious stance toward child sex abuse handling) is transcribed below:
"I take it as a source of pride now, that that is the line that I go, 'NO. I don't care how I've lived my life before, or what pride I took in being a Witness. You DON'T get to excuse that. You just don't.'
You've got to look that kind of ugliness in the face, because those victims - those survivors - they need to be heard and they need to be understood and they need to know that it's not acceptable.
And so, my call-out to them is that it's NOT acceptable and I WON'T accept it, and I will LEAVE a religion over it. I don't care what the costs are. You can shun me. You can do whatever you want to me - you can call me names, you can say lies about me. I don't care what you do to me.
For the sake of those victims and survivors: I LEAVE whatever it is."
And that, folks, is what fearless integrity sounds like. Well done Mike for knocking this one out of the park with such a powerful guest like my big sister, Sherrie D'S

You too, @Vanderhoven7! You know, I always use your posts as my go-to for all things theologically related. You're a wealth of knowledge when it comes to unraveling the Biblical canon from a traditional Christian perspective. I thank you for that.

"Did they go back to the Watchtower?"
Ha! Not quite, but I'm still staying abreast of my door-knocking skills, @minimus.
Thank you, @Diogenesister and @Vanderhoven7. I see you guys :). I still lurk but haven't had the time to contribute anything great lately. I appreciate you asking about me. X
For everyone else wondering, please ask @dubstepped. He is my sole mouthpiece on
earththis forum ;). Peace out. -

@McLovin It never appeared in a Watchtower publication. Similar artwork is employed (reminiscent of the style back in the 70s and 80s), but it's simply an Old Testament depiction of the Jewish High Priest blessing used in Judaism.

“Do You Know the Time?” From WT Sept 2018
by skin inthere is a one page article in the current wt study mag, sept 2018 pg 22 with the title “do you know the time?”.
in that article it describes a number of different ways you can say the time is 1:30. it goes on to say “there are even places where that same time could be expressed as “half two,” meaning 30 minutes before two”.
what i would like to know is this, where in the world does “half 2” mean 1:30?

@LOLS Yeah, same in German. We say "halb zwei' (literally translates into "half two"). It's like a condensed way of saying half an hour 'til two.
Works even when expressing the 15 minute intervals (quarter past/quarter to). So, one forty-five would become "viertel vor zwei".
Edit: Ah, @Listener beat me to it.
