Is that a latino accent it doesn't sound american?
That sounds like a Chinese accent. She could be South Korean, Taiwanese, Hong Kong, etc.

Man, this mahamantra is some real hypnotic music! It's weird, pleasurable, hypnotic and cult-like all rolled into one. lol. This is music that insular brainwashed JWs will never enjoy because of their fear of it being demonic.
It's good for the first 10 to 15 minutes but then it starts to get monotonous - as can be expected with any religion that focuses on chanting:

I can see them in the future, making some kind of concession in the case of disassociated ones - perhaps returning to their pre-1980 position of not shunning disassociated ones. I wouldn't be surprised if negative publicity regarding the shunning of disassociated ones eventually forces them to make this concession. -

I wish Geoffrey Jackson wasn't being questioned at all vs a video link...
by thedepressedsoul ini'd rather them not even question him at this point.
by allowing a video link, they put the ball 100% in his court.
i don't get what they expect to accomplish by having a video link only.. 2. he won't feel any pressure.

He won't feel any pressure. He's not in the hot seat. He's miles away when he gives an answer. I think this alone is a huge advantage for the JW side.
Not necessarily. It could turn out to be his undoing. It's easy for him to have a false sense of confidence and feeling less pressured could mean less adrenaline and thus a poorer performance when he's caught with a difficult question.
I wonder if the questions get too much there will suddenly be "technical problems" with the Video Link ?
That is my only concern - that the video link gives him an opportunity to chicken out at any time by feigning technical difficulties.

"Waiting on Jehovah? Look, for 3 decades the organization taught that the superior authorities of Romans 13 does not refer to the secular authorities but to Jehovah and Jesus - despite the fact that Romans 13 makes it very evident that it is indeed the secular authorities. So were JWs waiting on Jehovah during those 3 decades? Or were they turning a blind eye to Jehovah's clear direction in his revealed word? During that 3 decades when JWs had it wrong christendom had it right! Christendom knew that the superior authorities refer to the secular authorities. So Jehovah reveals the truth to false christendom before he reveals it to his people? Waiting on Jehovah? You mean waiting on the organization, right? Waiting on an organization that seems to have a knack for lagging behind Jehovah's revealed truth and bringing reproach on Jehovah in the process!" -

Witness behavior in my gym ....
by SecretSlaveClass inabout two months ago two very attractive ladies in their mid 30's signed on at one of the gyms i belong to.
for a while i noticed them watching me and naturally i assumed they were taking an interest in how i went about training my clients since many do before they decide to approach me and inquire about my services (i own a health and fitness consultancy).. sure enough one of them approached me a few weeks back and asked me for a business card, inquired about rates and various other aspects involved with signing on with me.
i handed her a card and explained that my client schedule was full but she should consider signing on with one of my personal trainers who still had some open spots available.

LOL. Show some sympathy for the sister. Imagine how difficult it must be for her being trapped in a JW marriage. Maybe she does these extra-marital flings to maintain her sanity. -

And Horny is not a popular dwarf
Reminds me of a joke a once heard:
The seven Dwarfs visit the Vatican and get to meet the Pope. So they all get a turn to ask the Pope a question. Finally it's Dopey's turn so he asks the Pope:
"Are there any dwarf nuns here at the Vatican?"
The other Dwarfs start snickering silently. The Pope tells him no. So he asks:
"What about elsewhere in Rome and in Italy - are there any Dwarf nuns?"
Again the other dwarfs snicker this time a little louder as the Pope again tells him no. Finally he asks the Pope:
"What about elsewhere in the world? Are there any dwarf nuns anywhere at all on the planet?"
The Pope again tells him that there are absolutely no dwarf nuns anywhere and he's sure of it. All the other Dwarfs now burst out in loud laughter and they start to chant, school-yard style:
"Dopey f**ked a penguin!
Dopey f**ked a penguin!
Dopey f**ked a penguin!"
