And they sure don't believe the end is coming any time soon either, talking about moving the set to the new headquarters in a couple years so they can enjoy it for years to come. Where's the urgency??

Resurrection talk at convention
by innerpeace ini didn't go to the convention but have family who did, all are going on about the resurrection talk, how there wasn't a dry eye in the arena.
and apparently a video was shown too on it.
we lost a family member some years back and they are on fb talking about the resurrection and new world coming soon.

Watched the video, I can see where it would hit a raw emotional nerve with everyone, esp those that have recently lost loved ones. Nice of them to get people so upset after making all that effort to go.

Perfect Relationship, He Still Broke Up With Me
by tiff21390 inlast month, my best friend of four years and boyfriend of six months came home from a jehovah's witness convention.
he'd been acting strangely the entire weekend and i knew something was wrong.
i initiated a discussion and he said, "essentially our relationship is wrong and i'm not supposed to be with you.

So sorry Tiff, there's some good comments and advice on here. I agree that he is prob having inner turmoil cause that is the witness way, guilt and more guilt, all topped off with fear. The conventions have a way of making those feelings worse, they get everyone in a frenzy.
I would not be married to my wonderful non jw husband had I listened to some people. I wasn't about to let him go after throwing away almost 10 yrs of my life with a so called witness with a ton of issues. I knew that in order to be happy and to have the things I wanted in life, which included having kids, I would need to follow my heart and leave religion out of it.
I agree taking a step back from it all is a good idea, and to get busy doing other things and meeting new people. I wish you all the best

Enjoying everyone's comments. I know it's nothing new for them to use emotional manipulation since I was brought up in it, just noticed how family was talking about this and the convention itself. Love that quote too DNCall, today's fare requires turning up the violins. Great stuff.

Agree the video was definately for emotional manipulation, even though I didn't see, my mom told me about it. How the woman's mother dies and then later appears in her kitchen. Sounds more like a horror movie.

So true blondie, so many have died believing that. Now with my parents getting older, they are probably clinging to the hope of a resurrection even more, since the new system isn't here yet.

The society seems to be really appealing to everyone's emotional side.

"Honour" Killing in Pakistan
by cofty in25 year old farzana iqbal was stoned to death by a crowd led by her own father and two of her brothers outside the high court in lahore yesterday.. her crime was to reject her cousin, who her family had decided she should marry, and fall in love with a man of her own choosing.. thousands of women are murdered every year in so-called "honour killings" but convictions are very rare.
pakistani law permits victim's families to forgive a murderer, but in these cases the killers are family members who are nominated to carry out the execution by the rest of the family.. this is what happens when you allow a mysogynistic religion to influence secular law.. reuters report...l.

This story has been so disturbing. I just stared at the picture of her lying there with her shoe next to her wanting to burst in tears. No words to describe the sadness of this. The story of the woman in Sudan is an outrage too. Her own brother turning her in.
