now it's caught the attention of r. kelly who did some kind of remix or something, (didn't watch the remixed vid).
i left a message that said everytime there's an article about jws in the news, all the dubs usually come out of the woodwork and leave their messages, but now there seems to be only a 5 messages.
are they ashamed or something?.
Well, here's the link to the article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/11/r-kelly-anti-masturbation-psa_n_1874390.html
However, the video has been withdrawn because the Washtowel Society claimed copyright infringement.

i went for 2-1/2 years without a truck- my wife told i would never survive without a truck-- i think she is a smart cookie- it was so hard going to garage sales with a small hatchback and not being able to buy that moosehead for my man-cave.. anyway- this is a former comcast cable tv truck- it was repainted and from the looks of the interior, it looks like a supervisor drove it carefully for 237,000 miles - which is a record for me - i got it for $2200- a 2001 ford f-150.
it had an old leaky transmission- which i have just had replaced with a rebuilt one for $950- i am getting 18-19mpg, so i think that v6 will last me for a long time- retirees don't put a lot of miles on their rides-- - and no rust- anywhere!.
.
Wow! I wouldn't dare to drive a vehicle with that high mileage, but you sound like a competent mechanic. Congrats!

i know that all everyone's experience vary but i ask this because i am under the impression that since jw's are taught to avoid reading material that may be critical of their teachings they just stay away.
yet many of you violated this at some point to come accross information that confirmed or convinced you of "the problems" with the org.
i have also spoken to active jw's online who seem to know the controvercies but still defend the org vigorously.
I was disgusted by the pedophilia in the organization, and I knew things weren't quite right doctrinally, but I was like Irondork - thought it was (or had once been) God's organization but had disappointed him.
It wasn't until I read Crisis of Conscience that I went through the Research. Vomit. Headache. FREEDOM! stage.

as a born in, one of my earliest thoughts has always been jehovah has an angel that writes down everything in a big book, all the good things that happen to me/others and everything bad that happens to me/others.
i faithfully and honestly believed that.. in march of this year i read c of c. by 5 am the next morning i was out.
24 hours before, a true, steadfast believer.
Lois - Your story is very moving. I'm an incest survivor too, and I agree with the advice you've been given about seeking counseling. I did that and it helped me a great deal. Hugs!

jehovah's witnesses top the list in not being able to hold on to their younger members.
so what do they do to combat this?
do they go out of their way to change things to keep the next generation, their only real hope of long run survival?
So who are the folks in the background? Are those the "good" teens? Are they actually reading scriptures as part of their conversation? Does the Washtowel Society think that that would appeal to teenagers? Buncha weenies!

i wanted to start a thread about the most disturbing quotes that you all have found in watchtower publications.
i just came across this one when responding to another thread.
i'm sure there are many more disturbing quotes out there.
Watchtower 1973 Sep 15 p.568
"If one understands the cause, it is easier to implement the prevention and cure of a bad habit. Did you know, for example, that mothers and fathers who stroke the genitals of their fretful babies to keep them quiet are unwittingly encouraging them to become masturbators later on?"
a week ago i was mowing the grass with a push mower and accidently mowed over a ground bee/wasp nest.
got stung several times.
thought it was black flies biting my ankles until they got up inside my shorts and got me twice on one finger.
Glad you survived!
And who the heck wrote that line in the song? When we'd sing it I used to glance around to see if any new people were there and cringe if I saw any. It was just such a stupid line.
