ToesUp: "what happened to the religion we were born into"?
It's gone, long gone. But don't say that or you'll be labelled an apostate, which is ironic considering it's the WT leadership that have actually gone apostate.

JE: he was some kind of singer.
Yeah, a bad one! Uggggh, what dreck.
When they released some of the Kingdom Melodies with vocals, one of the tunes featured him. It was the perfect example of something that was really bad, but because a prominent elder did it everyone gushed, "Oh, isn't that lovely!" when in fact it was really, really ugly.

VI: I doubt this video was made for 'family night' at Bethel. It's too much effort for just a limited audience but I do believe it was made for the Witnesses in general and not the public.
Agreed.
This idea is nonsense. Just look at the images:
- How many are at night?
- Could all of these clips have been done in one evening on a spontaneous whim?
Seriously!
This was clearly planned for a while and then executed. The post production alone had to take many hours. How long would it take a lone "Bethelite" to put this together with the occasional hour here and the stolen hour there?
Come on, people! How 'bout some critical thinking skills!!!
This is clearly NOT something anyone put together in a couple of hours of their spare time.

I fear he may be a grave man.

"Your compliance will be most appreciated."
Note the passive-agressive nature in the wording of this "request."
It's so Watchtower.
As them if they got a sync license from Sony for the "Happy" song? If not, they are guilty of copyright infringement and have no right to talk about what is and isn't legal. Hypocrites.
They should be "happy," the world is seeing how "happy" they are!
Let's review: It's a cult!

Priceless!!!

Yep, nothing says "I'm Happy!" like dancing down the hallway with a toilet brush in your hand!

It's like they're trying too hard.
Weird freakin' cult!

I wonder if they secured a sync license from Sony Music for use of this.
I supposed most of us wouldn't be so bothered by something like this if it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing was strictly forbidden for so long. Also, we here know how desperately UNHAPPY many JWs and ex-JWs are as a result of WT policies like shunning, blood-transfusions and pedophiles.
This religion is just getting weirder by the minute.

This is why I no longer associate with active JWs, their blind conformity erodes my thinking and my convictions!
(Not really, it just felt good to say that).

Stuck, So now at 40 I have to start from scratch!
Maybe, but the good news is that any friends you make from here on out will be people that love you for WHO you are, not WHAT you (pretend to) believe.
