2 new songs for Kingdom hall construction projects.

One of these is called "Working In The Coalmine"
The other is called "Back On The Chain Gang"

Unfamiliar expressions have been replaced and awkward words have been removed.

You mean words like "o'er" and "e'en" don't exist anymore? I hope they got rid of that shitty "From House To House" song. Wait, what do I care? I haven't been to a meeting in 13 years!

I'm also guessing that we should throw away our old Kingdom Melody CDs since they now qualify as "Old Light". Funny how that works. Maybe we should throw out our old Green Day albums when they put out a new one.

A good song lives on through the decades. I guess the Kingdom Melodies that have been scrapped over the years weren't really good songs after all, since they haven't bothered to re-release any of the ones from the 1950s on CD. Speaking of which, I'm pretty sure I have an entire set of the old songs from the 1950s.

Is there a Kingdom Melodies discography anywhere? I'd love to see it.

And only 135 songs? That's almost half of what they have now! If I only had 135 'approved' songs to listen to, I'd go nuts. These 135 tunes will become more annoying because they'll be played more frequently. How much you wanna bet that the limited numbers of songs were to cut costs on CD and paper production?

Why did you pick your avator or username?

well, i picked my username because that's what i saw in front of me and i like the way it sounded.

no real story behind that.

i picked my avator because that's the way i felt.

Nosferatu

Mine was the most demonic thing I could think of at the time of registering :)

The only kiss I would give a fish is taking a bite out of its cooked body :9

You should downgrade to a Commodore 64. Mine has never been infected and the monitor still works after 20 years. If the monitor goes for crap, I can use my TV :)

Were you a good witness in school?

by keyser soze in

jw
friends

i have to confess that i really wasn't.

it wasn't that i was bad.

i just didn't do all the things that were expected of me.. i remember being envious of those kids they would interview at meetings and assemblies; the ones who could stand up in front of all their classmates and talk about "the truth".

Nosferatu

Elementary school through grade 7, I was a good JW kid. I didn't preach, but I let them know my religion. I also envied the JW kids at the hall who could start a bible study with their classmates. I couldn't get my classmates past "You don't celebrate Christmas? You're weird."

Grade 7 put my faith in Jehovah to the test. I was kicked and beat up daily because of being a JW, wearing clothes that made me, a follower of Jehovah "stand out", and I didn't fight back because Jehovah's people do not participate in violence. All of this would happen in front of the teachers, and they would do nothing. I also knew that if I said anything to anybody, I would get beat up even worse.

I would pray to Jehovah on what became an hourly basis (some days less) for him to give me the strength and endurance to make it through another school day. Jehovah rewarded me by giving me a bad case of PTSD. I would shake uncontrollably throughout the day and especially at my locker, when kids would walk by and randomly kick me. I was a complete wreck.

After that awful year, I got myself a girlfriend. My faith also started to fall by the wayside in the forecoming years. It really started to crumble when I was in grade 10. The Math teacher seemed to know that I was going through a personal crisis, and he allowed me the freewill to decide if I would stay in class for the national anthem or leave and join the other JW kids. I wish I could thank him for the understanding, but he's dead now :(

After grade 10, I switched schools. I told NOBODY that I was a JW and had the freewill to live my double life. The only time I saw JWs from my school was at the convention. None of them were in my congregation, and they seemed to just leave me be since they knew I didn't want to be a JW.

After I turned 18 and left home, I abandoned the whole thing.
