  The book 1984 was published in 1949 and spoke of many technological advances that weren't known then. These have since been invented and are currently in use. Was the author George Orwell divinley inspired?

  Television has been around since the late 1940's but JW's never took advantage of it to spread their "lifesaving news" which could have been televised worldwide in a matter of minutes. Instead they plodded from door to door with poorly written literature, claiming that when the message is finally spread, the end will come.

  Were you or someone you know sexually molested by a Jehovah's Witness ?

  due to the fact there are about 27,000 members of this religion that are known pedophiles, and the information about it is kept in a secret database file, i wonder how many lurking jw's as well as others are aware of the severity of this problem?

  remember, it's 27,000 pedophiles that they know about.

  what about the thousands that don't get caught?

  I think, instead that I should leave an open file on the computer at home with many of the news links for the latest court cases in San Diego and with Candice Conti.

  One could also download the information onto Flash drives with JW.org printed on the side and leave them lying around at the Kingdom Hall, Assembly Hall or out in the parking lots of these places.

  o m g...(yes that is a very childish reaction...but i couldn't think of a more appropriate expression!).

  if you haven't yet read it...please do so..... it is so ridiculous!

  so leading, so distorted, and full of "bait and switch" techniques.. "prove you have the truth"..by seeing how neutral witnesses were in war times?

  my mom told me yesterday, 'you need to read this weeks study article, its shows us how to know if we have the truth.'

  and so I GUESS I better humor her, and have a laugh myself, better arm myself with two highlighters, and a note book, and some tylenol...

  SOWHATNOW "Let me guess Mom....the article uses unprovable reasonings and connect the dot scriptures that lead the reader to conclude theirs is the true religion...right? "

  Typically, the Society only reports this kind of news when disaster befalls JW's who STAYED HOME from an assembly or meeting, making it seem as though they'd have been spared had they attended like they were supposed to. They'll just chalk this accident up to "time and unforseen occurances" .

  I am JW.ORG

  famous quote from wuthering heights revised.. '... i am jw.org!

  it's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than i am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.

  so don't talk of our separation again: it is impracticable...'.

  Rather than being a photo of an actual pendant made with a JW slogan on it, the slogan on the pendant in the opening post looks it's photoshopped to me. If you enlarge the photo you can see that the letters are transparent and the shine is only on the pendant underneath the letters rather than on the letters. It looks like they photoshopped the JW slogan onto a photo of a pendant. I'm not convinced that anyone is really selling such an item.

  There was always the question of how Jesus hands didn't rip through from bearing the weight of his body, but how anyone, perfect or not, could stay conscious and then have a conversation after having a spike driven through his hands and the instep of his feet, is beyond me.

  Wow...The line that struck me was her feelings once she decided to leave her church and to quit selling Mary Kay Cosmetics.

  "It really cost me....I lost my identity....I lost my belonging....I lost the ability to ever be that certain or righteous about anything ever again"

  I'm going to memorize that line and take it as my own because it describes exactly how it is for me now.

  Do you remember the 15 minute break at the Sun. meeting?

  by 3rdgen in

  a poster on another thread reminded me of when there was a 15 min.

  break between the talk and the wt study on sundays.

  the break was supposed to be to allow jw's time to drive their bible studys home from the talk.

  I remember the 15 minute break after the public talk. At our Hall they said it was done so they could set up the microphones.

  Then there was the urban ledgend where the Chairman got up after the talk and thanked the speaker for his very fine discourse and continued, saying that before the Watchtower study began, there would be a 15 minute intercourse while the microphones were being set up. LOL
