  Jason assumes there are actually 10 GB members, including Joel Dellinger and William Turner. Any idea why he thinks so?

  The publicity works: An interested woman in the Netherlands with her husband and kids came two times to the Kingdom Hall. Then came the news, and because of it they stopped going.

  Very enthousiastic about you getting the stories out!

  What I notice is that the title is based on how the organisation of Jehovah's Witnesses presented itself in the past. It seems they try to use the Watchtower term less and less.

  I'm afraid the ones who would need to see your documentary (of course JW's, but also those wanting to be JW's) will not be watching it because of the title. When I was still believing the story, I was eager to get more info on the organisation. So Wikipedia seemed to me a "safe" choice - and I was surprised to learn a lot of stuff that I didn't know as a born-in. But I would never watch a video like the ones above, out of my fear for "apostates". Isn't there a title that triggers JW's to watch this documentary?

  Three Simple Reasons Why an Assault-Weapons Ban Is Bad Policy

  by freemindfade in

  1. social
  2. current

  i keep saying this is a bad place/policy to put all the time, energy and resources if you really do in fact care, or if you are just riding the agenda bandwagon: .

  an assault-weapons ban is irrelevant to suicide deaths.

  the large majority of gun deaths are suicides, and there is no credible argument that an assault-weapons ban will have the slightest effect on suicide.

  I'm so glad living in the Netherlands, where the number of homicide deaths is much lower. We have a lot of mad people too, and it give me peace of mind that it is not that easy for them to get such a weapon as it is in the States or other violent parts of the world.

  what is included in the publisher cards and other information when you transfer from one congregation to another?

  i was privately reproved and may be moving to a congregation where there are brothers i rather not know why i was privately reproved.

  is the fact i was privately reproved visible but not the reason why?

  It was always very interesting to read those letters that were sent to the next congregation. One expression I read in it for instance was "church people mentality" - not a compliment!

  I remember that you have the right to see your "letter of recommendation" that is sent to the next congregation. When I was an elder, we even showed it to someone who requested the letter. However.... that doesn't mean that there is no oral communication beside this letter...
