I vividly remember being at the kingdom hall when I was a kid and listening to song 65 "Meeting In Unity" (from the previous songbook) and thinking it sounded like the Looney Tune's theme song. After reading on JWN I saw I wasn't the only one.

005- V Christ, Our Exemplar
by Aware! in.
i was listening to the latest vocal renditions cd (disc 5) released by the watchtower and song 5 sounds like something i've heard before.
if it were not for the lyrics, it'd be my favorite.. http://download.jw.org/files/media_music/iasnv5_e_09.mp3.

What Can We Do to Show How We Cared about Oompa?
by Band on the Run ini know others have posted on the original thread.
several people, including myself, would like to do something concrete to show our concerns re: his treatment by the jw, and how important he was to all of us here.
i suggested a handwritten note, on behalf of the whole community here, flowers, and perhaps a donation to a charity that helps people get back on their feet.

Does anyone know a good website to send flowers to his address? I found this one doing a quick google search: http://www.sendflowers.com/funeral-sympathy/funeral-flowers-gifts
WE could all send our own flowers without needing a proxy, but it would be better if we did it on the same day, for emphasis.

A funy thing happened to me ...
by scotoma ini suddenly realized that this board has the same methods at its disposal as the watchtower and it will use them.
and there's no appeal.. i am so saddened by this i feel like killing myself.
this was my last refuge of being able to discuss things that are on my mind.. and now i see there is no hope.

the level of disapointment
by lastchance inas i look at the members in my area, i see alot of fustration and disapointment.
those who still beleive 100%, are sending there kids off to college( to live on campus),there is no rush to send there kids off to bethel and others are just going through the motions just so they wont be questioned.
in the last 7 years i've been in 2 congregations, in 2 different states, and the level of tension and in fighting in both, has made the isreali/ palistani conflict look mild.

Hi Zeb, I did reply to your PM a while ago. I'm gradually getting over my paranoia of revealing info about me. I'm a nursing major, and there happen to be a few Witnesses in my class.
One's inactive, the other got dunked this summer and doesn't know much about the religion and has worldly friends, and the other two I don't know much about, and I don't want to identify myself as a Witness to them.

Witness My Fury- LOL! I woke up this past summer; I'm not fully deprogrammed yet. There's still a paranoid JW inside of me. "What if she was lurking here?", I thought. I'm risking free housing by posting here. It was a she, and I wondered if anyone would comment about my post. Anyway, she dropped out of my class this week. I have no idea why, but maybe it was the constant anti higher education reminders we've been getting lately. Heck, I used to feel guilty that I was going to college until I awoke this summer.

I'm going to college, but only because my parents don't agree with WT's stance on higher education. They don't wan't to see me struggle financially. Living on campus would be a dream come true; I hate commuting an hour and thirty minutes back and forth every day. What I don't understand is why there are eleven (if you include me) Witnesses in my university (that I know of)! They must've missed the no higher education memo. I saw one of them pick up his/her magazines after they fell out of his/her binder last week in class! So I'm guessing he/she preaches to his/her classmates or something. I preach too, but it's not the same message as his/hers. LOL
