I do believe it. Can't leave. Just trying to keep the passion in the conversation, so it doesn't become a mere numbers discussion.

I agree, Can't leave. But the revolution part CANNOT be left out. It cannot. It is vital. It is the passion. Like I said, every movement usually starts with a business model. But when the passion is gone...it is all gone.
We are starting a revolution, and balance is needed. Yes, an organized body with rational men and women are vital to direct the work. But revolutionaries are needed as well to keep the intense passion relevant. Not let it become a numbers and schedule game.
We are fighting for lives. We are fighting for freedom. We are fighting for each other!
We can't lose sight. I respect Cedars business model. I really do. But let's not turn it into a business, even though that is an important part that plays an important function.
We need men like crosscheck, cantleave, cedars, jwfacts. But we also need men like Anon and JWfairy. We need logic....but we also need PASSION.
I'm sorry to be so focused on this while I am not a direct member. But this is something that I"ve noticed about many movements that stemed from revolutions. It ends up becoming a stiff business. The passion is lost. The revolution is lost. And years later, people may read this and say, "Yeah...that's what it became."
I am desperate. As we all are. Our families are slaves. They may die. They may be abused. And I for one will NOT stand by and let this happen. A revoultion must happen.

Let me say, I was so excited about AAWA. I still am. But these guys have tried to start a revolution based on 20/21st century ideals. Revolution is anarchy. It is an ideal of the people...NOT BASED ON A LOUSY BUSINESS MODEL!!!!
I love America. And I love capitalism. But this is NOT nor will it ever be REVOLUTION. And revolution is the only thing that will change such a super power in our society. Revolution is what is needed to take over the Jargonaut that is the Watchtower.
I want to volunteer. I want to supoort. I want to be a part of this movement, now know as "The Association of Anti-Watchtower Activists." But there is much to disturb me, that we need to tweek. Maybe it is my knowing the 60's so well. My obsesssion with the 60's. With Woodstock. With the movements in San Fransisco. With PUNK ROCK. Their successes. Their failures.
THe Watchtower MUST end. It must. SOON!!!
Too many people have been hurt. And we cannot let one more be fall victim of this horrible orginization of men. Not a single person. And that is an incredible statement since someone (more in fact) will be hurt tomorrow. They must not. They WILL not. They CANNOT.
It is time to stand up. Start a revolution! Start a movement that will no longer allow this to happen in our country. In our nation. On our continent. On our EARTH. NO more. We are finished. It is time to now begin a REVOLUTION.
Let us write songs. Let us rise up. Let us stand up and say, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!" We will no longer lie down and take it. We will no longer turn around while you violate us. We will no longer keep quiet. You have had your time. Your time up there. No it is time for US. Our time down here.
It is time for a REVOLUTION. One that will never be forgotten. One that will rival the revolutions of old. One that will rival revolutions of tyrany due to politics. One that will rival tyrany due to sex or race. A revolution that will stand up and say, "OUR MINDS ARE OUR OWN!" We will no longer sit back while you force your guilt in us. We will no longer feel shame. We will no longer feel inapropriate guilt.
We are AAWA!
We are art
We are culture
We are HUMAN BEINGS
We may have different belifs. But we will stand as one. One nation. Under humanity. With liberty and justice for all.

Here is what is a little disturbing: Look at all revolutions. They were not based on a business model. People resepct ART and not business. ART must be a part of EVERY revolution. I am seeing no art here. I am seeing faith and trust in a business model. Without art, there is no passion. There is anger. There is bitterness. But there is also just a rational reason why it MUST suceed.
I love this idea. PLEASE don't get me wrong. I love it. BUT, I am seeing no art. I am seeing all of the "founders" justifying what they need, and working out the model on a PUBLIC forum. "Let's do this!!!" or "We will do that". That has absolutely NO place on a public forum!!!
Already, after only a couple day, I am disappointed. Already this is being thought of as a business. Obviously we were all a little put off by there word "organization". But I saw the need for it. But there is no art behind it. Only the intellect. And I suppose that is what disturbs me.
All "organizations" have honest ideals. C.T Russell was not trying to start a billion dollar business. Originally, he was trying to begin a movement based on first century Christianity. I love what you are trying to do. But there is not real passion. WIthout the arts, there is nothing. And I truly believe that. And I see no passion. Just a rational reason why it can be done.
In these sorts of organizations the passion is immediate and quick! Everyone wants to be involved. But reading trhough the entire thread, it is all about business, organization, and structure. That will eliminate passion every time. Maybe AAWA will go on for a few years. But without the art, without the REVOLUTION, without the ATTITUDE of the protestors of the 60's...it will fail. In my opinion. And that I see that after a single day of rolling it out....I can't deny it.

I think this should be AAWA's theme song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8KQmps-Sog
Interchanging mind control,
Come let the revolution take it's toll,
If you could flick a switch and open your third eye,
You'd see that
We should never be afraid to die
(So come on)
Rise up and take the power back,
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack,
You know that their time's coming to an end,
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend -

by johnamos inoh how i wish i could just write out something that would cause you all to know and understand that what i say is true.
or i wish i could tell yall that i am going to do something like cause an earthquake (with jehovahs spirit backing me) at a certain place and time, then after i posted such info then it occurred just as i said...then maybe you would listen and believe what i say.. .
and even more so, your lack of knowledge and belief in jehovah and in his word the bible.

Less musically effective, but lyrically better:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPE9uSFFxrIEspecially this line:
If we live our life in fear
I'll wait a thousand years
Just to see you smile again
Kill the prayers for love and peace
You'll wake the thought police
We can't hide the truth inside -
