How many of you remember these? (Since these are old I don't think the Tower will get a hernia.)

Anyone from that area remember any of this?
Petra!
The review. That was a joke, wasn't it? I remember that you had to raise your hand how many mistakes you made.

Gorby:
That must have been degrading with the whole congregation looking at you.
Petra!
Bloody hell ,I remember all of those topics though not from the USA .I converted in 1959-60 here in Australia ,Melbourne in fact and the 1963 International Convention was a bit of a fizzer here ,because their wasn`t too many international visitors that turned up .And I can still visualize an ABC TV Journalist doing some interviews .
Being involved in looking for the public to house guests using the accommodation forms certainly rings a bell.
The Theocratic Ministry School Review ,I can only remember up until about the first 10 years .That`s when we first moved interstate to QLD and I don`t recall having to do that then.
"What has Gods Kingdom Been Doing Since 1914 " ? The same as now SWA ,{ Sweet F**K All }
" Babylon The Great Has Fallen Gods Kingdom Rules " Do we ever hear anything about that anymore ?
"Babylon The Great' ,false religion and of course the principle one was the Roman Catholic Church of Christendom which also included all other religions.
Ironically the Jehovah`s Witnesses have adopted the very name that a Spanish Catholic monk of the 13th Century gave to God ,by taking the Tetragrammaton and translating them as JHVH and adding a couple of vowels and came up with the name Jehovah.A name that has been in use around the world since that time either in print ,church publications and in stone engraved in Churches around the world since that time.
Proving the lie that Jehovah`s Witnesses have made that christendom has hid that name from public view.
And not only that ,Jehovah`s Witnesses have also virtually adopted the same Bible Cannon that was adopted by the Catholic church in the third Century .
And yes I do remember the name of the film "Heritage" but not so much anything much about it .
thank you Petra ,that certainly did bring back some old memories .
Lol..I remember the written review, especially the last 8 questions which were True or False. One young lady in our old Congo reasoned that if she wrote the same answer to all the True or False questions she'd probably get around 4 correct. Consequently her paper read Fasle, Fasle, Fasle, Fasle, Fasle, Fasle, Fasle and Fasle.

Wow! You really have a history with the Tower. They must have hurt you pretty badly. I think they hurt everyone on this board pretty badly. They hurt me and I was only 12.
Petra!
dropoffyourkeylee:
That is a strange tract because I couldn't find a date, but I recall seeing something about the "Heritage" film.
Thanks!
Petra!
All the talk titles are familiar. I would have attended the conventions in Britain, tbe big ones at Twickenham.
That is when we had real assemblies! Everything live, no damn videos. ... Sessions until 9 pm at night , then off on the tube or bus to where your "digs" happened to be ( I stayed in some strange places ! ) One might have paid perhaps 7shillings and sixpence per night. That is old money.
I shared in rooming work once when they held it local. That accommodations form looked familiar.
That film, Heritage, I know of it but never actually saw it. I must have been ill the weekend they showed it at a Circuit Assembly. What was that WMAL TV ? I have never heard of that.
Thanks Petra....for making me feel old !
