  See the new Dutch assembly hall

  by Anders Andersen in

  ...it looks like a generic, easy to sell barn hall.. https://youtu.be/eqwrfhbbqwy.

  nothing like the old hall it's built next to.. the small room in the video is the indoctrination education center.. the building is completed one year ahead of schedule.

  my guess: it's either much simpler than they originally planned, and/or they had more volunteers because nothing else is being built.. video is dutch, but nothing interesting is said anyway..

  Hopefully a Commonwealth Precedent - DF'ing Reviewable by a Court

  well, it's been a very long road, so far, but, for the greater good.. appeal decision posted today.. http://www.canlii.org/en/ab/abca/doc/2016/2016abca255/2016abca255.html?autocompletestr=highwood%20congr&autocompletepos=1.

  Good luck.

  I understand that it's the economic impact of the DF that makes the court willing to review the case.

  But imho what should be reviewed by the court is that the life of a less than 15 year old child and their family can be destroyed because the child decided/was pressured to become 'member of a self governed organisation', but failed to foresee all consequences of that 'decision'.

  We watched first few episodes and stopped because my wife doesn't like it. I intend to continue myself.

  But for now I'm too busy watching 5 seasons of the Walking Dead. Watching mindless zombies. Apparently I got used to them while still in...

  For those wondering if this new hall is just the building style up here: yes, for event halls used for business fairs, indoor markets, or sports.

  But auditoria normally are much more luxurious and 'finished'.

  Here's a picture of the original hall:

  

  Notable differences: carpet vs concrete floor, somewhat comfy chairs vs wooden chairs, ceiling vs roof, pretty brick walls vs ugly concrete and iron framing.

  People who join high control groups like JW or Scientology are not crazy. Nor do they become a member; they are recruited.

  An excellent explanation of how the process works is shown in this video by TheraminTrees:

  acute normovolemic hemodilution.

  hemodilution simply refers to the process of diluting the blood with another substance.

  there are various ways that this is done before, during and after the surgical process.

  The elusive song 151 makes an appearance.

  by SadElder in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the missing song 151 now titled "the revealing of god's sons" shows up with the september edition of tv.jw.

  no words or score on the jw page yet.

  can't say that it sounds any different than any of the other songs they produce now.

  @Half Banana,

  You remind me of an older brother in my town who consistently read 'organism' as 'orgasm'. Book studies became a lot more interesting with him ;-)

  The same brother commented on how immoral the world had become during a FS meeting. "There used to be only naked women on television...but now you'll even see naked men! Disgusting!"
