The Secrets She Keeps
by Simon inanyone watching this?
it's an australian production with the actress who plays lady edith in downton abbey.. great drama.. there was a surprise mention of jehovah's witnesses in episode 2. we just started watching episode 3 and, well, they are going to hate the kind of publicity this gives them!.
it will build on the terrible reputation they have after the commission investigating abuse within organisations, which the wts tried to obstruct and obfuscate their responsibilities in.. well worth watching as a drama in it's own right, but especially as a potential talking point about the wts.. on cbc in canada..

What was the defining moment that started your becoming a JW ?
by smiddy3 inlet me explain what i mean: i was in the company of a workmate when i looked at my hands and my arms and pointed out the veins and said something like look at that, isn`it amazing how veins and arteriies circulate the blood through our bodies ?.
he later explained to me he wasn`t sure what he should say to me as we had been working together for about six years and he had never once brought up about his jw background .he was what we would call a weak witness and he considered me a street kid who swore and drank too much.
i was twenty years old at the time.. i can`t remember the actual conversations that transpired ,but thats what started me down the road to becoming a witness and then convincing my gf to join me and about two years later we were married in a kh.. can you point to any one thing or conversation that started you down the road to becoming a witness?.

they then told him to remove it from his personal youtube account, which he refused.

The Canadian Inuit Dog
by LoveUniHateExams ini've always loved husky dogs - my dad has a malamute.. and i found this interesting little video on the canadian inuit dog, the husky of the canadian high arctic.. they live outdoors, at forty below, and help the inuit with sledding and hunting.
they're working dogs, not pets, with incredible physical endurance and are fed raw flesh, bone and blubber.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxvhyawdmdo.
