The scene with Tony handing the "story" to Caleb was beyond crazy. Knorr, Franz, et al, must be spinning in their graves at all this.

ok, so i dont want to be a negative bitter person...and we all love little kids, but i am just so torn about the new video just uploaded on jw.org.
if you havent watched it yet, have a look at it...."an animated series that touches hearts".
(yes, its well done...and they certainly like to do a lot of boasting about their technical skills etc...).

the old guys sided with hobby lobby today in denying birth control coverage to its female employees based on the owners religious views.
intact- is viagra for the guys.
funny how the far right evangelical owners of hobby lobby didn't want to touch that one.... read judge ginburg's scathing counter argument and opinion.. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/13pdf/13-354_olp1.pdf.
This ruling is also ridiculous in that somehow now a corporation has religious beliefs. Absurd.

so many questionn perhaps will be answer by this investigation/independent audit and perhaps some follow up untanglement of funds in the proliferation of different corporations that are under the gbs control.. i think 2014 is going to be a very interesting year for the wt corporation.
o and how do do feel about the whistleblower policy implimentation for all those that bring in 1,000,000 dollars or more annually.
can you imagine the wt corporation problems with that little gem, they can't disfelloship him or dismiss a whistleblower my my my.. .
Don't know what the revitalization act is, do you have any info? Regardless, they can DF anyone they want.

see the article here:.
http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2014/04/18/the_wellcome_trust_is_funding_research_to_make_human_blood_from_stem_cells.html.
blood could become much less scarce if a british research group succeeds in bringing a version made from stem cells to human trials, and eventually to market.
I am confused when I see comments about how this could solve the Watchtower's blood "problem". I don't think they have a blood problem. They have a convoluted policy on the medical use of blood, and it makes headlines once in a while, and some JWs have lost their lives trying to obey their misguided rules. Do you really think anyone running this org loses any sleep over this? Do you see any evidence that rank and file JWs are unhappy about the blood issue? Is there going to be some kind of mass uprising or schism due to the blood policy??? I seriously doubt it.

a recent article in the watchtower, february 15, 2014 addresses the centenary of the photo-drama of creation.
then comment it on this 'remarkable work', but it will never be displayed by the watchtower again .... _______________________________.
the 1890s introduced silent motion pictures to the public.
Just to be clear, the Watchtower Society, for all their faults, never claimed that MEPS translated publications from one language to another. It's a typesetting system, that's all. They were very clear on that, unfortunately the average dub is not all that computer savvy.

- 23 day to go .. annual meeting unofficial rumors.
- new bible.
- new nwt (revision).
I was telling a friend of mine (he is not a JW, never has been) about all the rumors. He came up with this list of possible announcements:
1. There are a few more seats opening up in Heaven so stay with us.
2. We know we keep missing the end of the world dates, but those were just math errors (carrying the 1 etc)
3. Maybe we should wear funny costumes and tell jokes when we do door to door.
4. Do we really believe Prince and the Jacksons follow the same rules are we do?
5. We should change our name because young kids associate ‘witness’ with ‘sniches’ and sniches are biches.
For a non-JW I thought he did a good job!

remember the guys that started the shit storm with the deaf sign language video?
the multiple funny versions at youtube?.
this time they are mocking the tract (the guy that started this isn't even a ex-jw, but they are pretty good at taking down cults!).
Found this one on Reddit:
