hi guys!
this is my first posting and my question is:
does anyone remember the movie (i believe the name was) "heritage" the borg presented on tv around 68-71?
I believe the film's actual title was "The Heritage of Youth - Will It Be Good or Bad?"
As others have stated it was presented at Circuit Assemblies and later at the congregatinal level by the CO. After run through the circuit the film was to be left with the circuit for use by any brothers who wwished to present it.
Actually for it's time it was quite well done. Ulyss Glass and Ed Dunlap were quite involved in the production from inception to final product.

Did you have a specific card to recommend? The link brings up a zip code request. They didn't put out a sale flyer in our area today either.

one rule that i never could understand is that if you were studying with an unbelieving husband, you could associate with him, even as couples, but if a person was considered a "weak" witness, it was best to avoid any association until that person changed......what dumb rule or belief comes to your mind??

Sisters working in public areas of Bethel must wear dresses, not pants, regardless of their work assignments. So those dear janitor sisters have to get down their hands and knees wearing a dress, and of course they better not show too much leg while doing it. More Jaracz crapola.
How about the guilt trip they place on all those kids for wanking? Tell 'em to mind their own business.
one day at the hall when i was about fifteen i guess, i looked at the talk schedule to see my name posted next to my next talk.
i hated giving a talk.
it made sick to my stomach before i would go 'on'.
Oh my what a thing to do to a 15 year old. I was the school overseer at that time and I gave those talks to the elders. Thought it would be good for them to stand up and lie. Such a fury caused over a little wanking. The old fossils at Brooklyn should "Leave the poor kids alone please."

all you ex-"brothers": was this just in my area (north alabama), or do any of you remember there being an unstated, but real nonetheless, pecking order amongst the brothers that correlated the size of your meeting briefcase/bookbag to your level of spirituality?.
don't know why i was thinking about this today.... brandon
I still have a briefcase fetish, but only real leather, please.
My $500 eldub case is now resting peacfully in a closet, used to carry things to classes when I go for continuing ed. type things. I still have some nice cases, one that is completely unused now ... haven't been in the "service" in several years and another that has meeting materials should we be so moved to go.
what the hell is the big deal about the circuit overseer's visit?
why does everyone have to drag their bible students and in active friends and family members to the meeting during that week?.
it is so lame and hypocritical.
Spare me please from the drivel that goes on during the CO visit. As an elder I was almost always the first or second one at the hall before a meeting, but come the week of the CO every lazy elder was there before me just to get that special nose browning award. A friend of ours calls it the "dog and phony show" week. It is indeed that and for what reason, I sure don't. The last few years even as an elder I just ignored them.

so it's ok for nominal christians but not ones who want to keep free from practises with pagan origins.
or they could... at some future point quote that article as a point of authority. They have a habit of doing this, they'll quote a past WT article and use it as the point of authority for a postion taken or a change in thinking. Then they can't say it's a change because we've always said ... whatever...
What about fireworks in the bedroom?
i was raised a witness, so from an early age i got into the habit of bowing my head to pray.
the idea was that to look up would be disrespectful.
of course, it soon struck me that when praying in bed, you're brazenly staring straight up at god, so i started rolling onto my side to pray.
don't you remember the Watchtower told you that back sleepers are wankers, so you must sleep on your side.
