i believe that the best way to inoculate any friend or relative of yours from becoming more deeply involved in the watchtower is exposure to recordings of the judicial process.. that goes for those already in the watchtower---if you can get them to listen.. what in your opinion are the best available online?.
i recommend several.
i am writing this off the cuff and do not have all the exact links, but you should find them easily.. anondud2 - on youtube.
Not turning in time is worse than Porn.
Watching it or doing it?
Someday I'd like to see this comprehensive list of graduated offences, just to know what is the least worst and what is the very worst.
I'd expect to see "thinking for yourself" near the top somewhere.

they just put up the march km 2014 on the private website.

upcoming memorial enables us to show gratitude .
Let's not allow this gem to disappear.
The WT still have one month left before another of their pseudo-prophecies fail.
Recall at the time how everyone was excitedly saying "Could this be the last? (wink wink)"
I guess they will refute that ever happened now.
my wife (in) disturbed to see i had the old libraries for years past on the computer.
she asked me to delete them this i have done.. anything to maintain her peace.
she spoke about not necessary they are updated etc.
Perfect opportunity to ask how much to delete.
At what point do the teachings change from being food to being trash?
Should you have a yearly purge to get rid of everything over ten years old?
If so what does that mean for today's teachings, in ten years time?
What about the books in the KHall library, should these be thrown away as well?
hey guys,.
so, something amazing happened recently.
i recently met with an old and very good friend of mine.
If you DA yourself the announcement is the same as a DF, "xxx is no longer a JW".
The Cong recoil in fear, you are the topic of conversation for a week with all kinds of rumours, then they run ever more from your presence.
i don't know what the current definitive rule is that determines whether someone is viewed as an "active publisher" or not.
i've seen comments suggesting that it is reporting a certain minimum number of hours per month which seems reasonable.. what is interesting is how they change the definition of what an active publisher is based on the context.
normally, you are never doing enough, however much you are doing, and too little or some missed reporting will get you a talking to.. but note how they class 'active' in one of the latest body of elders letters:.
If you report every month you are 'regular'
If you miss a month you are 'irregular'
If you haven't reported for 6 months you are 'inactive'
i will have the music video separated shortly.
will post the link once it's done..
hm have a hobby?
im not asking what.. hm have taken up a constructive hobby since leaving?.
WTWizard My favorite flashlight is the Fenix LD22 and its little sister the LD12
I have the LD12 and absolutely love it. Single AA Eneloop XX and I use it for everything. Scouting around the rear of my hifi to plug stuff in (low setting so as not to dazzle), seeing my way when I wake up in the night (low so as not to wake others), to being out at night.
Picked up this diffuser for next to nothing and it makes the LD12 even more useful.
