They also had a speaker who went on a random speel about pets and not focusing to much attention on pets and that pets are basically just for entertainment and we don't want entertainment and hobbies such as pets to distract our service to jehovah

International Convention...Same Message, Same Emotional Manipulation
by HeyThere inwell, of course nothing else would be expected, but it passes me off.. for example, they show this short video that shows a child dying, shows her father crying as he visits her grave...and then she is reunited with her family in "the new system" and then it shows a handicapped girl who is sad she can't ice skate with friends...fast forward to tns, she can skate!!!
then an elderly couple is shown happily young again.... .
and of course the end is "so close!

Heaven, I have asked for certain doctrines to be proven by the bible...and so far no one has been able to support the doctrines in question from the bible, only by referring to wt pubs. So while I agree...The wtbts doesn't even base their brand of crazy on the bible.

WTBTS has certainly found a way to capitalize on people's fears and wishes. Oh, and donation boxes are like every 5 feet.

No Refusal Blood Checkpoints!
by minimus inin oregon, during the 4th of july weekend, troopers will be conducting checkpoints to see if someone has been drinking.
if someone refuses a breath test, they will be forced to have their blood extracted from them.. what do you think of this?.
-

HeyThere
Problemaddict....agreed. drunk drivers kill people...just take the dang breath test then the blood thing doesn't matter. Cops don't want to just be out there taking blood from everyone, they probably don't feel great joy at that whole concept...that is another risk for them! Think of some of the people they will have to test?!!?! Yikes!

JW Kids Who Lack Sincerity: Are You In The Flipping Truth Or Not?
by Apognophos indid any of you know a jw youth who didn't seem to really even try to be sincere about the "truth"?
not someone who led a double life while pretending to be a goody-goody jw.
i mean the kind of kid who went to the meetings and did field service while making minimal effort at maintaining a pretense of being a true believer?.
-

HeyThere
Allot of these kids may not even want to be jw but because of their parents they have no choice but go. I feel bad for them...that is really sad.
