This thread reminds me of the funny scenes in "Paper Moon" with tatum oneal, where they go around the country reading obituaries and selling them bibles that their recently departed ordered for them. This movie depicts the vulnerable people are right after a death and how people (or WT) take advantage of them.
rudolf steiner 1861-1925, developed eurythmy a performance art.
he wrote hundreds of books, a brilliant person in many fields from austria(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/rudolf_steiner).. steiner advocated a form of ethical individualism, to which he later brought a more explicitly spiritual approach.
he based his epistemology on johann wolfgang goethe's world view, in which "thinking… is no more and no less an organ of perception than the eye or ear.

How do you get "new light" from an old Watchtower?
Set it on fire.
i was sat in the assembly hall yesterday, wondering how many pimo ones like me there was there.
or even if they don't know ttatt still don't believe it for whatever reason.. i think there must be more of (us) there than we all realise.
i mean, brothers reaching out is at an all time low, information via the internet is at an all time high and the preaching work has now become a motionless, speechless babysitting of a book shelf advertising a website as someone here pointed out!.
Sometimes I change my wifi name to TTATT, and a few times I spell it out. You can see a lot of goofy wifi names too at assemblies. Thank goodness for iPads to keep our minds wandering.
i thought that this little gem deserved a thread of it's own.. 4. why is it important for us to be present at the memorial if at all possible?.
4 reflect on the importance of attending the memorial.
remember, congregation meetings are part of our worship.
The first paragraph has the most cultish sentence I have seen them put into writing . "Each year, this observance is the most amazing unifying event that takes place on planet earth." Only those fully in can swallow this imaginary image that there is nothing else going on that evening anywhere on earth, geez its getting so deep.

i have an uneasy feeling inside that something is coming this year or the next.
perhaps a new big announcement that turns jwdom on it's head.. we've seen the statement in the watchtower november 15th, 2013 which said:.
watchtower november 15th, 2013 - page 20, paragraph 17.. .
Im surprised they haven't asked all to cancel their cable tv supscriptions and use the funds to support JW broadcasting. Tie in all computers to the mother borg, so they can run a tally on who is really watching the broadcast. Anyone caught watching "worldly" tv will be marked
