hey’re hoping that a&e will have enough pressure from disney, their parent company, [and] enough advertisers will pull out.

these are the tactics of scientology,” she added.. remini’s new season, unlike before, explored the jehovah’s witnesses in a two-hour special.

Ignorance of Watchtower doctrine among young JW's
by nicolaou in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i've been having a conversation with a young jw on twitter and have, once again, come up against beliefs that do not match up with official watchtower doctrine.

if you like you can read the full thread here (you'll need to click on some comments to open it all up).. anyway the upshot is that this jw, and many like her, believe that only truly wicked people will be killed at armageddon - not innocent babies and children or anyone who "didn't know better" perhaps because they didn't get a witness.

it's as though they cannot accept the obvious injustice of jehovah's morality.. this jw teenager believes that all these non-jw's who survive armageddon will get their chance to prove their loyalty during the 1000 year reign of christ - again, not a watchtower teaching.. i don't really have a question to ask, this is just an observation.

BETHELITES - Whatever Became of?
by Black Man in
1. jw
2. friends
i often times wonder what happened to certain bethelites that i ran around with during my 1990s tenure there.

while there are still a few left there, the greater majority of them aren't there for various reasons (marriage, disillusionment, left the borg, etc).

a couple of cats i wonder about - there was one brother who i believe was from kansas, who got his fingers cut off in a printing press.
