They don't ask the congregation amy more to raise their hand to approve a payment to say the CO, maybe they don't want the R&F to think they are VOTING.

They are still behind the times by about 30 years, I remember we would go to clubs and sing to lyrics and photos and videos. It was called kareoke.

Fifteen years later, I went to the UN in person.
by biblexaminer inof all the things that the watchtower has done wrong, what would you say is the singular most powerful thing that you could point a jw to, to crack their eyes open?
what is the singular thing that can be expressed bluntly and conclusively that might shock a jw to their senses?
if you could only carry one arrow in your quiver on your way to war with watchtower, what would it be?.

I remember reading in William Schnell,s book "30years a watchtower slave", he mentioned a question that can never be answered by JW,s honestly. It was concerning the Rich man and Lazaraus story and was If Jesus knew that being conscious after death and being in torments was one of satan,s lies (as pointed out by numerous WT articles) why would he use it as an illustration and never explain it for 1870+ years? Jesus used one of Satan,s lies to tell a story! How bizarre...

Song 146 - You did it for me
by Listener inthe watchtower 1970 4/1 emphasis the principle that singing at the kingdom hall is part of worship to god and is one of the most beautiful ways they can show this worship to him.. of all the ways in which we can worship and praise jehovah god—by prayer, by public talks, by our field ministry and by our exemplary conduct—one of the most beautiful of them is this literal singing of songs to jehovah’s praise....and, above all, let us pay more than usual attention to the words.
it is by the words that we worship jehovah god, bringing praise to him.
as an introduction to song 146, jw org states -jesus considers any act of love and support for his anointed brothers as though it were done for him.

The average RIF has no choice but to like it and mutter it in an undertone day and nite, cause they have been programed to do only that. Even if there was a new song coming out with new light, like "Im dreaming of a Wwwwhite Christmas", the RIF would embrace the new song like a lost sheep.

Learn To Speak Like A Jehovah's Witness
by pale.emperor infor those who were never a jw, here's a fun guide to passing yourself as one:.
privilege [priv-lij] - a duty nobody would volunteer to do which is assigned to you without your say so.
such as cleaning the toilets, picking up other brats candy wrappers in the back row and being stuck on locking up duty for the 7th time in a row.. df'd [dee-eff'd] - disfellowshipped.

Pyramid Schemes
by schnell inseveral years ago, i was introduced to a "wonderful" company called fortune hi tech marketing by a brother and his wife.
they had been introduced by a former sheriff who claims he had researched the company and found no leins or judgments, and that former sheriff had been brought in by a pastor.
you can read what happened with fhtm on wikipedia if you so desire.. this whole new idea of multilevel marketing had my brain reeling, though, and soon enough, i actually signed up with none other than prepaid legal.

I think the biggest scammer of all Jw kingdumb was the real estate no money down books and tapes by Dave Del Dotto. He was on TV infomercials in the 80.s and 90,s, till he got taken down by the FTC for making false claims . Today he sells wine from his vineyard in Napa valley. Google his name and read up on his scams as a JW.

Musicians Who Died in the Last Year - or Through the Years- Who Do you Miss Most ?
by flipper ini think for me in the last year the death of david bowie got to me the most.
not only in the way he handled his demise so classy by even making a song about it and a you tube about dying and sharing it with fans, but just his whole persona i always thought was pretty cool.
plus i enjoyed a good many of his songs.

Another Outright Lie Published 2/17 WT
by LostGeneration inthis info is from the article "who is leading god's people today" feb 17 study edition.. to help them disseminate bible truth in various languages, zion’s watch tower tract society was legally incorporated in 1884, with brother russell as president.
* he was an outstanding student of the bible, and he fearlessly exposed as false such doctrines as the trinity and the immortality of the soul.
he discerned that christ would return invisibly and that “the appointed times of the nations” would end in 1914.. pretty sickening article overall about how badass the gb is, though this little gem is printed as well, paragraph 12. the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.

Russell also taught the Egyptian pyramids has so much to do with his chronology that he wrote Thy Kingdom Come book, which today not many, if any, witnesses have investigated this side of Russell. My guess is that it would make Russell look too paganist.

Spy camera wanted, motion activated, wireless, etc.
by FatFreek 2005 inokay, it doesn't have to be a spy camera.. it must be something wireless that send signals to my android smart phone.
and some of those spy cameras seem to have fairly good features but they are also scary.
their descriptions are obviously translated from some other language and i would worry about decent customer support.. i'd simply like to be notified the moment a certain cabinet door (actually, two doors) is opened.

just went to Fry,s electronics and they had a lot of gadgets, almost too many to pick any particular one.
