I love this show...one of my faves, but then again, I have always liked these kinds of shows. World War Z, the book, was amazing. They changed so much in the movie it was like a completely different story. Has anyone seen The Last Ship? That's a good one, too and no zombies.

Terminology the Society Hates?
by toweragent inin my most recent talk, i got counseled for using some terms that were not prefered.
for example i said "new testament" rather than "the christian greek scriptures".
i also used the term "gospel", but even worse, i made reference to the "synoptic gospels" and the "gnostic gospel".. i guess i never thought of it before, but when i looked at the societies information on the matter they always say things like, "the so-called new testament..." or "the so-called synoptic gospels..." why with all the "so-called?".

HeyThere
Lol I am going to say all of these terms as often as possible when I am around witnesses. I saw a cute smurfs tshirt I wanted to get, too. I would love to prompt them to tell me the smurfs story so I could give them the Wtf look.

New methods?
by manda63 inhi, had some strange things happen this week that have made me ponder what on earth is going on with the man made organisation.. 1/ while picking up some train tickets i was approached by a young man with an ipad of sorts who engaged me in a chap and then asked to show me a new website i asked what he was trying to sell or promote he assured me that he was selling nothing the website he showed me was jw.org so i quickly said so you are promoting an organisation with a brand name similar to how a christian would promote jesus and the bible he looked confused but then said yes, so i said that i thought that to be quite shamefull, he froze for a bit and didnt comment so i asked is this new symbol a trade mark of some marketting firm to which he said "no we are jehovahs witnesses" no one else was around so not sure of the "we" but anyway i said if god has given us the bible whats with a website that produces snippets out the bible with an opinion on the meaning he avoided the question and asked me what i believed in so i said my religions leeders dont let me discuss belief with anybody so i obey,listen to them and dont question he said "you have been blessed by j with a brain and freedom of thought to look and question" i said ok but i think its strange that you use a name for god thats perhaps made up by man, blindly follow and dont question a group of self appointed men as well as showing signs of idoatory to an organisation that has pushed jesus to one side, at this he suddenly he had to dash off.
2/ when out shopping i was apprehended by a group of people with a stand giving free literature and promoting the jw.org website so i had had to ask whats with this name change after all these years and are you a similar religion to the catholic church which led to a chat about how the catholic religion is false and how they wickedly have covered up sex abuse!
i didnt bite on this one but asked if birth control was banned in the jw.org religion a lady stepped forward and explained that it was cruel and not biblical to ban contreception i said i had been shown a bit in the bible that gives rise to this ban and she said they(catholic church) dont understand the bible and use it to control and miss inform people so i replied similar to how your organisation bans blood and birthdays by misinterpreting the bible i went on to say that i believe the organisation to be hypocritical,false , cult like and shamefull how it covers up sex abuse i also got in that the organisation had totally corrupted its self with its un membership and also with the sheer amount of false prophecy over its relatively short history at which the senior man at the table politely told me if i wasnt interested in the literature to be on my way and that hopefully i would mature enough to let jehovah into my heart before it was to late and that he felt sorry for me and the people i obviously associated with.

I enjoy the videos, too. The time it takes to manage all they do is quite commendable. I have only watched a handful of their videos but to me they seem to be having fun together while sharing the info.

This prison I was in
Clutched me deep into my soul
Taunted me, controlled me
Haunted me...owned me
But now I am free
Like a flower blossoming
On a warm spring day
The breeze opens my mind.
I see now those prison gates
They were all in my head
I trusted, I believed
But now I know I was misled
It's so hard to let go
When you think your losing life
When you think it's Satan's world out there
When shunning is your price...
But oh the wonders of this world
Precious moments have been lost
But here now, I am free!
I no longer see the devil
Lurking with those "worldly" friends
To judge others, to fear I no longer feel
I love all and care instead
My heart has been opened.
Beating strong, I am free!
Okay, that's all I got right now. Draft one - I Am Free
It's 2am, I apologize for any 2am-isms.

@designs lol
Would these be the same ones who so vigorously oppose the government monitoring communications etc? I almost didn't join this convo in this way because people get very...er...emotional. But oh well. There are so many things that go on that the average Joe citizen has no idea occurs. They are working hard out there to stop terrorism, both foreign and domestic.
All this crap going on...not Obama's fault. Is he a perfect president? Well, is there really such a thing as a perfect president? It is always easy to judge from the peanut gallery, when you don't know what is going on behind the scenes. There are decisions made, resources deployed, avenues taken that we don't know about. And we don't need to know. Why? Because people flip out, cry foul, and more without even understanding all the facts. And Obama isn't the only one making the decisions.
Earlier in Obama's presidency, there was a crisis, I think it was the oil spill in the gulf. I would listen to the talking heads on my satellite radio during my work commute. In the days after the oil spill, said talking heads (i can't remember who but will try to remember) went on and on about how Obama was weak because he wasn't doing anything to hold them accountable, that he needed to step in a do something, fine them, etc. People were calling in going on and on about it, how Obama wasn't taking action. Well, guess what?!?! News came out the he did take action! He had been working on it to determine what to do. So they got fined, and more. So what do those SAME PEOPLE SAY?!?! Suddenly it turned to them complaining that Obama had no right, Obama shouldn't have gotten involved, the Government has no place in the private sector, etc. Etc.
WTF?
I stopped listening to that talk show immediately. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
