    Interesting notes from the first round of district conventions in Canada:

    "You Can Trust the Creator!" was said to be prepared uniquely for aboriginals in Canada (and north america in general, I guess).

    Secondly, unrelated to the above-mentioned tract, was the announcement that there WILL be a campaign just before next year's international conventions to invite the public (worldwide, I imagine).

    Dubs are so sensitive to the needs of 'natives'. What drivel.

    Dubs are sensitive to the needs of any group that is impoverished or is lacking in formal eduaction. Not to help them, but to prey on their fears and hopelesness.

    This makes sense... I mean if the JWs are prospering in foreign countries, why not tap in to this large territory right here at home.

    announcement that there WILL be a campaign just before next year's international conventions to invite the public (worldwide, I imagine).

    This is BS meant to get the JWs all excited. They say this all the time with the District Conventions.

    A few years ago I did a little experiment... I printed up the "You Are Invited" page from the watchtower.org website that invited the public to attend the convention and headed over to the local convention.

    When I arrived I immediately received "stranger danger" looks from JWs in the parking lot. It wasn't as if I was dressed up oddly... I was in jeans and a collar shirt. Basically I looked like I was going to a business casual event. I think what scared them was my well trimmed beard.

    When I got in I went to "the back room" where all of the COs, DOs and other important people hang out. I went there to ask them where I could setup my little recording device so I could record the talks. The first thing they told me was that the talks are not meant for the public. I responded by showing them the printed invitation from the watchtower.org website. They responded by immediately, as if by a programmed knee-jerk response, saying, "Oh, you cannot trust what you read on the Internet". That is when I reminded them that the printout was from their own website. (Oops!)

    Basically the rest of the convention preceded the same way with their poor quality home brew security lackeys guards serving as my second shadow.

    On a good note I was able to get in quite a bit of Anti-Witnessing. As per their programming, JWs cannot resist the overwhelming urge to "witness" to people who don't look like they do. Using the skills I learned in the Theocratic Ministry School I quickly steered the conversation to the topic of: "I think people should respect each others religions". They took the bate and started to agree with me quite emphatically. I furthered the topic about how wrong it is to discriminate against people who don't believe the same thing you believe. They gulped down that worm too and told me about how non-JWs do bad things to JWs. That is when I brought up how I have seen some religions that were so cruel as to shun anyone who left the religion.... that was the point where the JW would start to stumble and stammer their words.

    Fcking with JWs can be such a good time.

    I am sure the native canadians will just love this so called "reach out" program specifically formulated for them, its not like they haven't had enough religious oppression and explotation shoved down their throats by the powers that be already.

    So are the aboriginals and native americans going to live somewhere by themselves in the new world or something? Why does their paradise pic not include other ethnic groups? Just an observation. I hope they don't respond to it.

    See that? You can worship mother earth and the watchtower all at the same time. The Watchtower - new and improved. Hip to today's crowd.

    Word up Jee. It's wack to listen to Young MC yo' youth, still representin' Jehovah.

    Is the new tract the one addressed in Sir82's thread? http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/154825/1.ashx

    Thanks for posting the tract on your site......I had only heard about it from the Canadian Zone, but it always helps to have a visual!

    Looking forward to your future postings!
