this new series' pilot episode is the perfect allegory for the blind faith of the average person in the jw movement, those who deny that anything 'immoral' or sinister happens within the ranks, the double lives, doubters, and towards the end of the episode, an example of how the governing body controls persons' lives.
check it out and tell me if you saw all the parallels.
i think it's my new favourite show.. http://tv-series.me/2014/12/15/ascension-s1e1-season-1-episode-1/.
@androb31: Haha, that's funny. I was a bit disappointed when I found out it wasn't your typical space opera (trying not to give spoilers). The parallels are just so funny. Any ex-jws that watch it should be having many 'crap themselves' moments
So far I think the 'inside guy' is like a CO who makes sure that the Watchtower's will is enforced when others try to have a say.
The guy in control over the program is like the GB.
Can't wait for the next episode. It's not bad past the big reveal at the end of episode 1.

i am deeply upset every time there's someone in the news who has died because of the stupid and immoral blood doctrine.. i would like to make a website documenting every single instance of a news report of someone dying from lack of a blood transfusion, and to keep track of it.
that would give some data on the real and current incidence of deaths due to the blood transfusion doctrine.. is there already a website like that?.

jwblood.org and jw-blood.org are available
a great part of social media's allure is that it makes some persons less conscious about revealing what interests them.
i've noticed an interesting trend in how jws (that i know) express their use of alcohol.. i have around 600 associates on on facebook, and just over 100 on instagram.
of that amount around 1/3 are jws, but i realise that they make the most posts about alcohol, and have the longest chain of comments on those posts.

It's very strange, there are never any comments discouraging drinking or being an alcohol exhibitionist, instead there is a celebratory attitude. I've also seen many of them repeatedly post:
1 Timothy 5: 23 "Do not drink water any longer, but take a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent cases of sickness."
It's so strange, it's like alcohol is the only guilty pleasure they can openly get away with in their child-like Watchtower induced state.
My non-jw contacts hardly post about alcohol at all. It's like 1 non-jw post about drinking to 50 JW posts.
Have you made any similar observations?

i'm still stuck in and have to give a 'talk' tomorrow.
now jw online library -is down.
i guess the governing body needs to update the connection to their divine seriving provider.

it looks as if the gb are blundering around and really showing themselves up for the buffoons they are.
all the stupidity about tight trousers is laughable and if the general public were to see these selfmportant cult leaders blabbing this stuff then the last shred of their credibility would be destroyed.........perhaps.. the wbt$ seem to have dug themselves into a deep pit of no escape with their lies, new light(tm), paedophile protection and all the other nauseating peripherals they have.. we also suspect that the wbt$ have their spies here because they are either predictable or get ideas form forums like this.. so!
are you listening watchtower(r)?
Have one last meeting and then fall upon their swords.

i came accross this infographic and couldn't help but think of the beloved old bethel fogies.

Forget the token respect that the Watchtower Society shows to women mainly in just words. Yesterday's Watchtower study article is an example: Feel good words about how much women are valued, while at the same time the reality is that they can never hold positions of authority.
A woman can never be a ministerial servant, elder, circuit overseer, co-ordinator of the body of elders, zone overseer, governing body helper etc etc.
In Watchtower land women aren't supposed to have instructional roles. With that being said.
Do you think there will be segments hosted / narrated by females? If not, how do you think the outside world will view that backward state of affairs?
