TV and the Media
by punkofnice ini look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.

Sanderson’s “Young People” convention talk
by FFGhost inso did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.
full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.
the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

Sanderson publicly self-praised his own story of forfeiting some low level collegiate scholarship in order to pursue high level JW ambitions...
Meanwhile, the same convention program shames average JWs for posting selfies/vlogs on social media because it might give the appearance of self-concerned boasting.
But a WT big belly can go on camera in front of 10 million JWs and toot his own horn with the intention of being "encouraging" to young people...
Hypocrites.
Wonder if Mark Sanderson would go on camera to boast about ever turning down the urge to masterbate?

We feel that, suavo.
A happy medium ground is possible.
Quietly becoming a inactive JW (non-hostile) can allow a person maintain normal relationships with family. And instead of being shunned, inactivity often results in more "love" being shown by JWs. Obviously their intention would to lovingly reactive you... just don't reactivate. Some call it fading. This usually allows the inactive JW to maintain normal communication with active JW family and some active JW friends.

So you and your mother became JW, but your mild-mannered father did not...?

Do you think the Watchtower is right about about eternal punishment of the wicked?
by Vanderhoven7 inatheists believe death is the end of personal existence.
but for those who believe there is life after death, what do you think is the nature of final punishment?
in other words do you agree with the atheists and the watchtower society or is there eternal ongoing conscious punishment awaiting the wicked.

Exactly. WT might get it right on either the flip, or the flop.

Yes, it has become a real labor to find unslanted media and entertainment. Pervasive agendas everywhere. WT included.

Thanks for sharing, Terry.
Was your mother much of a "fighter" as years went by, or was is primarily an incompatibility conflict with Wesley?
