I don't know if this is the one you are talking about but here is Part 1 on Youtube. It looks like there are 10 parts.
it's 40 years since charles manson's 'family' committed the brutal murders of pregnant actress sharon tate and six others in a two-night rampage in la in august 1969. manson is a fascinating docu-drama that takes viewers deep inside a twisted world of hate, fear and mind control.
it shows how one man transformed a harmless group of hippies into a gang of sadistic murderers.
the program also features the first ever in-depth interview with the family's so-called "lookout" linda kasabian.. .

I actually deleted her as my fb friend and got a message from her about it. I told her it was an accident and re-friended her.
I love my sister and always will, she's a very sweet person but so blinded by the BS. With that said, we aren't close anymore so it wouldn't be a huge loss for her to never speak to me again.
What's funny is that on my birthday every year, she sends me a message like the one for this year..."You know Mom woke up with the biggest pain in her butt this morning! :)" That's her way of wishing me "Happy Birthday" without actually saying the words.
i agree that truth is progressivewe need more time to understand.
this is the excuse given by the members of the governing body for the changes in their understanding.
should not this latitude be granted the other religions?
Well put!
sometimes i feel like i am going to lose the 'battle' for my kids.
it's hard when you only get to see them every second weekend and my boy even less now that he has his drivers licence...mates are more important than seeing dad you know.. daughter is the deeper thinking one i think.
i asked her who's message is this to which she made a guess at the witnesses.
I had the same problem with one of my sons. He insisted on getting baptized because all of his friends were and he was interested in a witness girl. He got disfellowshipped right after baptism and tried to get reinstated but they kept procrastinating it so he finally gave up and is now a free man, mentally.
He use to defend the cult because all of his friends were a part of it, but he's a very social person and soon developed friends on the outside and is now practically living with his non-JW girlfriend, so hang in there. It may just be a social thing right now.
Sorry-hit entered before message...tried to edit but it won't let me.
Anyway, my birthday was a couple of days ago and all of my "worldly" friends (and some that grew up in the borg but no longer go) wished me 'Happy Birthday" on facebook, even my disfellowshipped son and my nephew (her son).
So I posted, "thanks everyone for the b-day wishes". I got a private message from her with the following:
"So I'm guessing you celebrate birthday's now. How sad! :("
I may have just been cut off from my sister. What's funny is that 3 of her own children do celebrate birthdays.
i'll start -.
i have officially gotten 2 out so far, which is more than i ever got into it, with the exception of my son that i begged not to get baptized.
he, however, is disfellowshipped now and wants nothing to do with the organization.

solely by means of the pages of the bible... is like trying to know someone based on what's written about them in their high school year book.
while what others write there may say a lot... oh so much is left out.
best way to get to know that person?
There are so many Gods, religions, books and different versions of bibles(and different texts) that I don't know what to believe in anymore than just the words of King Salomon, make the most of every day and enjoy life.
Amen!!!
how about pringting 2 or 3 selected pages from ks book say from judicial section.
make 3 or 4 copies of those pages and plant them in diffrent spots in the kingdom hall.
then watch.
Wobble hit the nail on the head! Love that idea.
ray franz decided to leave bethel and the governing body because he could not continue to promote or support the lies and half truths that were being told.
do you think that it is possible that one of the new boys might actually grow a pair of balls and stand up for what is true and reject what is false?.
there are so many doctrines that time has annulled.
Gayle, I don't know the answer to that, probably not. I agree, pretty amazing that they would come clean like that, and I believe they lost at least half their membership in doing so. Like I said it's been a while since I watched it.
