  An exJW for Prez?!! Peace, for Prince!

  by Spartacus II - The Equalizer in

  it appears there is about a million voting age jws in the us right now.

  it appears there is 8 million ex jws or in the shadows.. if those 8 million would have the guts to come out for a presidential candidate to come out, we can finally end the slavery, tyranny and corruption in this and many other circles.. cowards die many times but a hero only dies once.

  and cowards die in revelation.. so, to you reading this, are you a coward or a true steward of the earth and creation?.

  Is Knowing/Using The Name Of God Important?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  i say no.. although the tetragrammaton appears close to 7000 times in the hebrew scriptures, the personal name of god does not.

  seems to me that god made sure that both that his personal name does not appear therein and that no one would ever actually know it or learn even how to pronounce it.

  he also made sure that his name (baring 3 hallelujahs in revelation) did not appear in the new testament.

  Or it doesn't really matter because he doesn't exist.

  RC is on Youtube, but "chanting" song is muted????

  jw brod-cast put the rc on youtube, but the "new system" last video with the chanting is muted.

  i know someone found the song, but can't find it now.

  does this mean they don't have public permission to use it?

  This video has already been discussed ad nauseam and yeah they got permission. It's fairly trivial for a production outfit to do so.

  They want to have a "shepherding call" with me, but here's the twist...

  i got it before 8 in the morning on a work day, as a text message.

  nothing beats a warm invitation for spiritual encouragement than a quick electronic message.. sheesh.....

  Earlier this year, I had an elder text me at 10:30pm and he late called and left a voicemail at around midnight.

  That's not an official JW channel. Whoever uploaded it didn't have rights to the song, so Youtube's auto-copyright thing kicked in and muted it.

  whether it's videos on jw broadcasting or pdfs on jw.org, all downloads used to be archived in-house at "assets.jw.org/" followed by the items name/code.

  now clicking a download link retrieves the items from akamai.net, a web services company..

  I guess if you wanted to, sure. Even if every person on here downloaded a video a million times, it wouldn't really make a financial dent. It would be more like a rounding error.

  It's far cheaper to use a service like Akamai than hosting that much shit yourself

  How do you deal with depression?

  i'm currently going through a bout of depression and my eating disorder has gotten worse.

  ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when i turn 18 i've felt kind of hopeless about my life.

  my parents won't take me to the doctor because the psychiatrists won't have my "best interests" aka jw crap in mind, because really that's the root of all my problems.. i'm wondering if any of you guys have any advice with dealing with depression?

  the 'accidental' porn thing with JWs is so fucking hilarious.

  If you accidentally view porn you need to:

  -Dispose of your computer and light it on fire.

  -Pray like you've never prayed before

  -Confess your 'sin' to the elders.

  What a joke.

  BRB gonna fire up some porn and crank one out.
