Did the WT ever unofficially ban Kal-El?
by HowTheBibleWasCreated ina few years ago avatar was 'demonized' by the wt.
in reality their argument had an extreme ignorance of hinduism and a poor knowledge of modern langauge (avatar means something else nowadays.... ).
but anyway when i was growing up my parents recorded the 4 supermen movies on to video tape as they were played on tv.

i was expecting a doctrinal debate with my parents when I told them I thought the GB was teaching bullocks (love that word). no debate from my parents. Just a regurgitation of 2,3. And they haven't even gotten on me for slacking in service.

JW 2014 YouTube Documentary
by kneehighmiah ini had an idea.
i was reading about the success of the kony 2012 video and was wondering if anyone would be interested in making a documentary to coincide with the international conventions and the 100 year anniversary of gods kingdom.
the video would be less than 30 minutes long.

On the way out said
I hope I am wrong. But I see smaller numbers waking up at each point. I see younger ones leaving at adulthood or getting DF'ed and never going back. I see the organization peaking somewhere around where it is now. (I think it peaked after 7 million and the numbers are slightly bogus now.) But the shrinking of the organization would go past my lifetime, maybe another 100 years.
i agree. The numbers are bogus. I've never seen them achieve 8 million witmesses, but they keep saying that number like its a fact. Does anyone have a link to the most recent figures? In my area 2 people got baptized at the assembly. The com asked all young people under 21 to stand during his part. I laughed to myself, wow they're doomed. They don't have enough young ones to continue indefinitely.

Yes it's critically important to be factual and even keeled. there is no room for hyperbole as it would just cause us to look like bitter dissenters. The idea would not be to produce hysertia but to bring condemnation upon the organization for its abuses. Someone earlier today pointed out how they screwed so many people by telling them they wouldn't grow old. I would love to put that quote in the video. I want to reach out to the creator of truth be told to see if he's interested. Anyone have his contact info?

I had an idea. I was reading about the success of the Kony 2012 video and was wondering if anyone would be interested in making a documentary to coincide with the international conventions and the 100 year anniversary of Gods kingdom. The video would be less than 30 minutes long. JWs would NOT be the target audience. Instead the target audience would be the general public, most of whom are unaware of what JWs really teach despite 100 years of fruitless door to door evangelizing. The video would focus on the harm the cult causes members, particulary shunning, blood, higher education and child molestation. It would also point out how intolerant the watchtower is of other religions and worldly people (Include a priceless tight pants sound byte from Anthony Morris) Last but not least it would deal with the recent cash grab and highlight the 100 years of false prophecies.
Again the target audience would not be JWs. Instead the video would bring the WT abuses and intolerance to public light. Hopefully local human rights activists, news media, politicians and celebrities would be moved to speak out against the injustices. This would force the organization to publicly comment on the allegations made in the video. Hopefully the negative pressure would trigger reform. If not, then there would still be hope that young open minded, intelligent JWS would be moved to do research and reconsider their beliefs. This is the demographic WT fears losing the most, as they cannot turn the organization over to uneducated unstable fanatics And survive.
I believe we have yet to fully unleash the power of the internet to help wake people up. Kony 2012 has over 99 million views. If we even had a fraction of that success we could change history. What do you guys think? I'm going to begin pitching the idea.

It's Foolish to Believe the Watchtower Will Always Be Around.
by kneehighmiah inseptember 11, 2001. riding the bus to school that tuesday morning we discussed the implications of the monday night football game between the broncos and the dolphins.
by lunchtime our entire world have changed dramatically.
america had passed into a new era that would lead to major changes.

One last but very important thing I forgot to mention is the inability to find a decent mate will kill membership. Young ones are very limited in their choice of mate. This means more will face being disfellowshipped because they need to have sex. Or they will leave so they can develop normal human social skills. Divorce rate amongst my friends is around 50%. JWs aren't being taught how to have happy marriages, and put on a fake persona during the dating process. They will eventually look elsewhere for happiness.

No offense jookbeard because this includes my beloved parents, but all those who think like your dad will soon be dead. The org knows it too. I'm sure they have done demographic studies. My parents are over 60 now. I hope they don't waste the rest of their time being burned out by JW activities and can enjoy retirement.
