Italian chef Gianfranco Vissani: "Vegans? They’re like the members of a sect. They’re like Jehovah’s Witnesses. I’d kill them all.”
Please Note: The following video is in Italian, if you don't like that, please don't click!
a non-jw friend of mine told me of her experience at a just concluded regional convention that she went to.
she said that during some announcements after a song, there was an announcement advising the audience to be mindful of the need to safeguard their belongings because not all persons present at the convention are delegates.
she said she was shocked to hear this rather prejudiced announcement that clearly insinuated all non-delegates are untrustworthy and only delegates are honest.
Hi freddo!
Not that shocking. Everyone there with an intent to listen to the program is a "delegate" aren't they? Now if they'd said "non jehovah's witnesses" I'd agree.
Yep, agreed, and especially now with some of the venues being used which effectively have shared common areas.
And what's interestng, is that it is WAY MORE important nowadays because....
Think about it - in olden days you might get a few bibles, songbooks and notebooks in bags left on seats, maybe some makeup and food...
But now, with the use of electronic tablet devices.... just think what's being left unattended on seats....
sorry for this matter has been already discussed.. i got shocked after watching this video:.

this is really insane !!!
the sea once held this youngster's heart within its mighty bosom.i loved and cherished the sea, stretching outward beyond infinity.
i took to the e'er dreary landscape, the dank surroundings soothing me, enveloping me in crawling mists that were more welcomed to me than the evaporating rays of a cavorting summer sun.i, however, am no longer that pensive lad who found comfort in the dark and cold and deep blue sea.
today, a man in the physical sense, i no longer possess that childlike fascination with my former abode.

not seen this before, or at least haven't registered it before.
maybe it's just a traditional style?.
i mean it's basically a glorified cattle trough?

Witness 007---yes always be first in the water. Of course, didn't Jesus get baptized in a river...who knows what was in that water.
See the letter dated 8 March 2008: "Baptizing Individuals Who Have Communicable Diseases" as referred to in paragraph 28 of the 'Circuit Organization Guidelines' (S-330) above.

The problem with candidates, especially, wet white t-shirts don't hide much.
haha yes, unless.....

These are the guidelines for the ones DOING the baptism - the 'dunker' - and NOT the actual baptism candidates - as per Thisismein1972's question that I was replying to.
See the second sentence in paragraph 25.
I would take it to mean a white t-shirt (or may be white button shirt, short of long sleeved) and probably white shorts.
These guidelines - as can be seen from the instructions later in that same paragraph - are obviously for a pool baptism when everyone is in actual the water - NOT for a cattle trough style baptism.
Guidelines for the actual baptism guidelines are along the following lines
KIngdom Ministry June 1993, page 3
Question Box: What would be considered proper attire when presenting oneself for baptism?

Hi Thisismein1972!
Another issue here. Are the "dunkers" now instructed to wear black?
No, according to the 2010 edition of the 'Circuit Organization Guidelines' (S-330), the opposite would appear to be the case - instruction is white.
See paragraph 25 (sorry, scans only in Spanish)
