We are into season 2 and the JW theme is an integral part of the plot.
A very well written and made series. The Danes love to bash JWs

Danish TV series on Netflix shows shunning of protagonist by her JW parents in the first few minutes of the opening episode.
by oppostate in"dicte" a danish tv series on netflix shows shunning of protagonist by her jw parents in the first few minutes of the opening episode.. it's similar to wallander if you're into that type of detective series you're sure to find this one interesting.. netflix description of the series is that:.
"a crime reporter starts a new life by returning to her hometown, where she finds herself at odds with the police when she tries to solve their cases.".
it opens with a young girl giving birth, her child is taken away, her parents helping to give the baby up.. ahead to 24 years later a woman gets out of her car and approaches a group of people entering a kingdom hall.. she calls them father and mother but they say nothing to her.

I think JWs definitely shun this park as being both part of christendom as well as being very commercial and blasphemic
I have been to nine-ten different amusement parks in the Kissimmee/orlando/Tampa area, but we deliberately chose not to pay this park a visit as I think it is definitely poor taste.

JW.ORG REPORTS THE WATCHTOWER RESPONSE TO EBOLA
by NAVYTOWN ini just checked the jw.org website and noticed an article about the jw response to ebola.
as i suspected, the entire focus was on alerting and educating jw members about ebola.just like in other disaster situations, the jw organization almost exclusively assists it's own members, ignoring the general public.
it seems their main concern is keeping their members healthy so they can continue to spread the jw message door to door!!!

Well, it seems that people living there appreciate the efforts.

Watchtower sitting on potential goldmine of millions of non-JW memorial attenders
by yadda yadda 2 inlast year's "letter from the governing body" (on jw.org) notes:.
"last year, the memorial attendance was 19,241,252. how encouraging to see so many honor jehovah and jesus christ by attending the most important meeting of the year for gods people!".
that's about 12 million or so non-jw's who go to the memorial only, a good % of whom are evidently at least somewhat sympathetic or curious about the jw's, but for various reasons have no desire to commit to the religion.. .

Is this a description of an average American JW congregation:
JW congregations are made up of life's losers, eccentrics, and essentially simple-minded souls.
I do not recognize this from my own country or even the many congregations I have attended meetings when visiting abroad.
This seems like a very judging and condescending comment.

Spanking VS. Reasoning
by SpeedRacer ini am having a discussion at work with the jw's.
should you spank a child to make them understand or do you reason with them.
they both agree with spanking.

In my country is simply not an option because it is illegal... and never got spanked as a JW child in the 70s and never spanked my children as a witness parent either

I guess witness elders have bible knowledge and have some skills on shepherding etc based on how they have been taught... compared to an average non-witness window washer...
