It's also a "photo op" religion now. "What cute pose can we do and post today?" I wonder if they count their time while they perfect their jumping shot.

Nicolas King: JW celebrity and example of hypocrisy
by neat blue dog innicolas king frequently sings with the watchtower chorus and had a supporting role in the dvd released at the 2014 convention.
(he's on the bottom row, second from the right.).
but he also is a jazz singer, traveling constantly performing at concerts, casinos, charity events, even a brief appearance on the tonight show.

We are told not to look beyond what we are told, shame on you for finding out he is a professional musician. -

Need WT article on being a homecoming queen
by Bonnie_Clyde ini remember an article many years ago...i think early 60's or even in the 50's.
it may have been questions from the readers.
i ask because our granddaughter has been selected to be on the homecoming court.

I think some brothers need to read this article before the super bowl. They don't need cheerleaders to participate in frenzied cheering.

by The Real Edward Gentry innot to be overly harsh...but if you just left, what the hell were you thinking?

AGM - Are they now teaching predestination?
by Doubting Bro inanother agm thought.
in tight pants tony's part, he mentioned several times that jehovah draws those he chooses and only those rightly disposed would come in.
and individuals that liked the literature but made no progress towards becoming jw were a "waste of time".. was he setting the stage for them introducing the thought of predestination?

I remember we kept going back because we never knew when an event in a persons life would make them receptive to the message. Guess unresponsive ones are out of luck now!

Who has a harder time leaving JW's - Born Ins or those who converted?
by HeyLittleGirl inmy freind (who is also out) and i were talking about this the other night.
i was a born-in, 3rd generation jw and she converted when she was in her late 20's.. when she left, she said that she knew the world wasn't as bad as she was told as a jw, so she knew she would be fine.
also, she still had lots of "worldly" family who welcomed her back with open arms.. it was harder for me - i had nobody in the "world", no family or freinds.

Pale emperor and our "traditions" are assemblies and the memorial. We have nothing else to look forward to.

They do Steve. They tell the r&f when enough is enough and escort them to a private area. One time I even heard one yell "5 more minutes" to those standing in line to meet Sanderson.

Met him once 15 years ago then again just recently. There was a significant change, it seems as if all the popularity has worn him down and made him much less approachable.
