DD: I mean, holy hell, you would think that Christ's brothers would have made one drama or film about their big bro in 100 friggin years!!
This is a pretty glaring omission on their part!

the video is still being filmed at the moment and i was told it was super "confidential.
" my source already saw several scenes from it and said, "it looks and feels like a cinematic movie.

although whatever bombshell is dropped will be explained away as from Jah.
Most of their "bombshells" are nothing more than disappointing wet fizzles.

Over the years, the WTBTS has made many announcements and other types of assertions which have tested my faith.
I am happy to say the results are in: I now have complete faith in MY powers of reason and no faith at all in that of the WT leadership!

JV: How could they scripturally sell this line of reasoning?
The same way they "sell" any line of "reasoning" in JW-land: They cite a scripture, say "evidently" and then tell everyone what it means and what to believe.
The Bible is just a prop for JWs. I thought you knew.

"believe it or not, today we may be living in the most peaceful moment in our species' existence.

BOTR, I cannot agree with this author's conclusion.
It appears from your post that you don't know what his conclusions are!

comment from an uber dub regarding the $13.5 sex abuse case will just blow you away.
by joe134cd ini was talking to an uber dub friend last night who lives in the san diego area.
he knew nothing of the $13.5 million dollar law suit.
when i tried to tell him that this is a systemic problem, and that this could perhaps be the tip of the ice burgh.

BTTT / Marked topics
by Simon ini've noticed a lot of topics being bumped recently with "bttt" (back to the top) comments or "marked" as the reply.. i'd appreciate if people think twice before doing this.
simply forcing topics back to the top even though there is nothing to say on them is not helpful and negates the usefulness of having an active topics view.
if everyone did this with every topic they want to push then things would quickly deteriorate so i don't believe some should be allowed to do it for whatever reason.. by all means post new and relevent comments to a topic but short esp single-word non-comments that are simply used to push certain topics back to the top are likely to be interpreted as spam and removed or blocked if necessary.. .

AnnOMaly: As for 'BTTT' or 'Bump,' perhaps a brief comment could be added as to why a thread is being bumped - especially long dead and buried ones?
That makes sense. Often there is a good reason to bump an old thread. But I think that's Simon's point: if who ever bumps it explains WHY they think the tread should be resurrected, then others can read that and respond.

by stuckinarut2 inoh yep...here we go..... this weeks service meeting has a part designed to show how children should be indoctrinated and manipulated into going "out in service".

WMF, you're supposed to put the tag-line in bold and italics:
Let's review: It's a cult!
See, isn't that better.

I'm confused. If your sons do MMA why can't they do Halloween?
That makes no sense to me.
