New DVD re Jerusalem's destruction, is not allowed to be viewed by the Bethelites
by Quarterback ini saw the recent video just released re, the destruction of jerusalemh.
it sure had it's share of blood and violence.
i would imagine that the rating of that dvd would be in the "r" category.. i do remember that when you fill a bethelite application, it states that you you couldn't watch an "r" rated movie.

It's Thursday night, and I get to be here, instead of at the KH!
by PaintedToeNail init is great to not feel compelled to go to the kh on thursday nights.
for years i hated going out on thursday evenings.
now, i get to stay home and do what i want, while several family members feel obligated to go through the motions.

OK, I am too old and missing it - but what is this SPARLOCK phenomenon?
by james_woods inat first, i thought it was some legitimate cartoon character (disney or such) that the society was putting down as "demonized".. then, i started getting the idea that perhaps (unbelievably) the society had made him up as a negative "teaching device" to warn jw kids about "worldly demonism".... can this possibly be true?.
surely not even the wtbts could be that stupid!!!.
can somebody explain this to me, please???

Did you go out door to door after you knew you were finished.
by GeneM ini did for a year.
i falsified reports, had fake rv's, told groups i was meeting up with other groups and went home just to show a presense.
i wasn't fading though, because of my situation i had to play like everything was fine.

Things you must avoid at all cost!!
by redvip2000 ini'd like to ask if you recall certain things you were forced to avoid or throw out because they were supposedly demonic, or connected with the occult, or even just plain bad.. i remember we were told to avoid the harry potter movies and books, because he is a magician.
also acdc music.. lol.. .
and oh yeah, during a talk an elder specifically mentioned the show "married with children", because it was a bad example of how a family should behave.

Any more fond (not so) DC memories?
by outsmartthesystem inmy oldest child was barely 4 months old and not an easy baby.
she cried all the time....and getting her to sleep during the day was a pain.....especially in a facility that was 80 degrees with a/c.
on sunday afternoon of the dc....knowing we had a two hour drive home (she also didn't sleep in the car well).....i went to an "off limits" area with her.
