Waco Mini-Series on Netflix. Powerful and Scary.
by Simon inso we binge-watched the waco mini-series on netflix.. wow, what a powerful and enlightening programme!
even if you think you know what happened, it gives you extra context to it all.
it's very well done even if you just want a great drama series, but it's way more than that.. there are of course some dramatization and slight historical inaccuracies for the purpose of story-telling but it was very informative.

Simon - The one thing I hate about Netflix is how everything is regionalized. That and the auto-play of previews.
You can turn off auto preview in the settings!

I found that adding a couple of entries into the routers blacklist stopped all the privacy concerns.

Similar to that book I spent some time compiling a list myself which I shared a few years back.
Take a look at how WT can never make up their minds on just about every teaching they ever had. I’ve put the flip-flop document in here for posterity

At the mouth of 2-3 witnesses a matter is established .Gods word the bible proves a generation is 50 years +, or - 5 years
by smiddy injehovah`s witnesses make a big deal about the 2 or 3 witnesses in judicial decisions yet they ignore that evidence when it suits them.. firstly :.
regarding the length of a generation matthew ch.1:17 gives a strong clue ,their are 3 lots of 14 generations mentioned which equal 42 generations from the time of abraham to jesus .. watchtower publications give abrahams birth as 2018 bc......they also give jesus birth as of 2 bc a period of 2016 years .
2016 yrs.

'Experiences(tm)'! Made up or totally true??
by punkofnice inat one assembly(tm), i was asked to relate an 'experience(tm)' which i did.
however, during rehearsals, the geezer in charge elder or co or some such title, told me that i shouldn't tell it the way it was.
i did a 're-enactment(tm)' with another 'brother(tm)'.

The first time I had a talk at an assembly I also had to do an interview with someone being baptised that day, and relate his experience.
Prior to the assembly every brother who had been assigned a talk had to meet the CO at the assembly hall and go through their talk for his approval.
To my surprise the CO wasn't interested in, and didn't ask to hear, any of the talks, only the interviews and experiences. In every instance he would stop the brother half way through, suggest what might be a better angle, and twist the experience into something new.
This particular CO was a special level of dick so I presumed it was just him being dishonest, but the more assembly parts I gave the more I saw that this was standard practice.
