well another big bad elder here just wanting to say sorry.. i'm sorry that so many were treated like crap, and shown that god's love is not to be found around jehovah's witnesses.

i'm sorry that inadvertently i've likely taught many to judge and as such see that racism permeates every corner of the jw world, else why else would someone be of the world, or even inactive.

i'm sorry i sat in on a jc, and voted to df.

Well, thus far not impressed! In fact many times pure insanity! One old Speaker(80'ish I say), could barely walk to the podium and had to hold his notes in his hand while he spoke to his notes, it was embarrassing.

GB's own Stephen Letts part, the 1st thing you notice is his pinky ring! It was very prominent in his talk, I was fixated on it. Sorry I do not remember any thing else from his talk. I told my wife, that he would be counseled by our Elders in our Congregation, and if he didn't respond right, he would lose all his privileges! Take take that Worldly Ring off!

Saturday afternoon part on "Faithful Single Ones", had a video that was down right weird. One sister interviewed obviously wore a wig that looked so fake and her eyes kept crossing, she said she never married to be a eunuch for Jehovah, she was down right ugly. The young man in the video had such a feminine voice, if you closed you eyes, you would have thought it was a girl.

5 of the Speakers wore big poco doted ties, with just a little makeup they would look like

clowns. You can not make this stuff up. So far I give this Convention a D plus.

The only 2 talks in my opinion that were decent was the last talk on Friday by a Bro. DIEKMAN "... Save what was Lost", he called Inactive Ones"Precious Lost Sheep". Different from other expressions I have heard about inactive ones.

And the Saturday talk "Follow Jesus, but not at a Distance" by a Bro. Selesky. He kept his name badge hidden and asked the audience if they at times fail to indentify themselves as JW's. Then he pull out a huge sheet of paper that was a blowup of his name badge and said we should be proud of who we are. Nice effort put into his talk.

One more day of this in Huntsville Alabama.
