i am getting news from jws who have attended the district convention that the drama (which is pre-recorded and played to lip-syncing actors) has a demon-possessed woman with a ?demonic voice?.
can anyone confirm this?
it is said to be pretty creepy sound effect and many jws are uncomfortable when they hear it.
Yes the demon posessed girl in the drama was pretty scary.
She was dressed in black and her hair was dishevelled and her words were in a plural voice. To me it sounded like the borg from star trek. My hubby said is was more like the exorcist.
Maybe the governing body watched the exorcist and borrowed the idea from it.
It definitely brought a chill down your back..

I was a good little dub. I always did what I was told. I pioneered and brought many to org. and was used at assemblies as a good role model.
OH I am making myself sick just thinking about it.
.
i don't think they get it yet.
Nope!!!!!!!!
Wt views anyone not agreeing with them as "disgruntled ones".

you know those people who pepper their conversations with phrases that were fashionable once but now - it's just plain annoying!.
probably the phrases travel the world.
"at the end of the day".
"like ahhhhhh"
"sweet"
memo to jehovah's witnesses officials:.
if you build it, they will come, but some improvements to the surrounding neighborhood couldn't hurt.. community support for plans by religious officials to build a massive residential complex for their members in dumbo hinges on whether the group agrees to improve the local subway station, streets and parks, sources said.. "their expansion of the neighborhood will tax its infrastructure, and therefore i think it's incumbent on them to improve it commensurately," said councilman david yassky ( d - brooklyn heights ).. but community groups want more than what the watchtower bible and tract society -- the business entity of the jehovah's witnesses -- is offering.
yassky and the dumbo neighborhood association are asking them to pay for renovating the york st. subway station, local streets and a rundown park beneath the manhattan bridge.
Are the R&F at all aware of the Society's construction plans?
The R&F are in la-la land when it comes to the society's financial plans. The rumor around here is that the governing body is sensing that the end is very near and that the society will be simplifying its operations.
Meanwhile behind their backs (as usual) they are planning projects that will take years to complete.
Makes me sick.

clearly, there is every earmark of financial worries within the watchtower society.. even governing body members have expressed concern about falling contribution levels.
within congregations.
yet, for the faithful, the answer is simple: wait on jehovah.. .
They have NEVER had enough money to do all the things they would like to do.
Are you sure about this?

in lowell mass.
a 67 year old former janitor won the mega millions jackpot.
what would you do with all that money?
I'll tell you what I would not be doing with it. I would not give a penny to the Botchtower.

not sure when they switched from hard cover books to cheap cardboard cover.
the publications don't have the same, fancy, expensive look that the previous hard cover ones did.
i used to marvel over the nice hard cover books, and the colors of them.
Truth is fluid and changes often, rendering old truth obsolete. It's part of the design.
Well said Walter
i have seen many brothers in the jw's including elders & ministerial servants using that silly tower symbol .
in their: bible covers, lapels, tie pins/clips, letterheads (personal) & many many more .
are they not idols?
Catholics have their cross
Jehovah's witnesses have their tower
On the first day of high school my girlfriend wore a cross and I wore a lapel pin of the watchtower and awake.
Idolatry! I think there is a connection.

whoooeeeee!
about 10 minutes ago i had a visitor!
she was a sister that we used to pal around with, we had several dinners together and she and her husband and my husband played cards together.
Good for them and for you. I hope that they have seen the 'light'
