I guess there is a perverse pleasure in all this for some, like going to a "schreck" movie. but entertainment at the expense of the vulnerable ones?

This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?
by prologos inthe resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!
--well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.
a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

Loyalty...When Is It Right or Wrong?
by BluesBrother inyou will remember the frequent exhortations to "maintain loyalty" to jehovah..a thinly disguised instruction to never question the wts.
wt (simplified) 7/15 2011 pp10-16.

The Nuremberg trials, even of the lower cadre established, that following wrong commands from "above" are no excuse for misdeeds committed under orders, or feelings of loyalty. If Armageddon and the wt 1000 year Reich do not come by 2075, all perpetrators will be guilty as charged. laughable loyalty. -

Given the impact of the rerun, following the story pattern, perhaps wt studios will now plan a "Survival into Paradise" production, with heavy emphasis on the shredding of recalcitrant humans of various ages in slow-motion stages. ? or the effect of the "reserved for fire" on opposers?.
Since wt writers are dream-merchants, why not make the nightmares more and more part of the meeting schedules, and house to house capabilities?

I remember the long lines buses coming into the stadium to pick up the ~ 6000 baptism candidates. that was before the induction into the "spirit directed organisation" clause. the live orchestra. -

Would we exist if Adam and Eve didn't sin?
by truth doubter inmy son asked me 40 years ago.

We exist, because A&E could not resist. without people dying, procreation would have stopped long ago. but if you persist, The story is flawed starting at Gen. 1:1. -

DY: "--People... Pleeeeeeease.... Give up the hate already!!!🙄
We feel no hate, but pity for the misplaced emphasis on death, and the people affected by the production, which technically might be well done. With offerings like that, more might say, well, I am done.

Je.suis.oisif: doesn't it have a totally different impact when your brain is deprogramming? In the congregation video showing, it seemes to have the same impact on the believers, and the caring fader(s). only the control-freak seems unfazed.It appears that the wt thrives on death, they promise life, even giving dates, not one of their life promises has ever benn realized. The only certainty is death and taxes, taxing wt requirements to even have a wt hope. -

Alive!: "--out in public and then have to get their act together for the 'next part on our programme' ....as in, now sit up straight we are moving on.... right on, the "conductor" of the next part, an always grinning optimist, had to admonish the audience to spruce up and start commenting. -

Here is my son's take on the generation, like the endless surface of a Moebius strip, when stripped of all the rhetoric .
