Can you give us a bit more info? Some here, like me, refuse to click on anything from the org. I refuse to give them anymore standing than they already get from google. Yeah, I know, makes no difference, just my personal stand against the org.

Special Talks now via video
by AverageJoe1 intired of listening to your local elders giving the "special" talk ever year after the memorial?
well don't worry, as of next year we will be spicing things up for your enjoyment.. not only will we be having the talk before the memorial (i know, wild huh), but we will be treating you to the talk via video starring our famous speakers from bethel so you can see how a talk should be given (after all bethel does boast the best speakers in any country, right?!).
here's a copy of the text from our latest letter as i'm sure that with so much excitement you won't believe it at first!.

Do you think at one time they will eliminate all speakers and the meeting will consist of just watching videos from the gb? essentially they will all get together at a kh to watch tv together and the elders will just be for df-ing and paperwork?

What do current jw's say about the above scripture (Romans 13)? I have brought it up to my jw in years past but he either changed the subject or brought up Hitler, etc... he seemed to dismiss this scripture. Maybe it reads differently in a jw "bible"?

Pretty creepy, yeah, that represents the jw cult as a whole quite well.

Yoga for JWs
by EyesOpenHeartBroken ini was chatting with my very jw pioneer mother (aged 65) and out of the blue she tells me she is sore from a particular pose she did in yoga class.
"wait, what??
" i say in my mind.

I know a jw who does yoga videos but will only call it 'stretching'. I say nothing, anytime I know they are going against dub policy is fine by me.

I'm sorry you are being emotionally abused by your mother and her cult.
Why do you allow your children around this toxic person? Please protect your children from such emotional abuse. As you know they will carry any emotional, physical and spiritual abuse with them their entire life.

Those who DO NOT get a resurrection?
by stuckinarut2 inso we know that by jw logic, the idea is that everyone who dies is acquitted of their sin and will get a resurrection in the "new world".
however, those directly destroyed by god, or at his command will not.
(for example, those destroyed in the flood.

The jw belief from the original poster said, "... the idea is that everyone who dies is acquitted of their sin"-
What was the point of Jesus death upon the cross (err, stake if you must)? If they say Jesus was jah's son, aren't we all God's children? Why acknowledge Jesus at all if your own death acquits you of sin? If we are all acquitted of sin when we die then why bother with the watchtower at all?

Just need to vent a little
by Phoebe inin the last week i have had three visits from brothers.
so 6 witnesses in all as they come in pairs.
now considering i used to go to the meetings, sit by myself and literally no one talked to me - ever - why the concern all of a sudden?.

Is there some reason you must open the door to these people? Pretend you are not at home or in bed,shower, on your way out the door.....etc...... they don't have to know you are simply driving around the block to get rid of them. You are not obligated to answer phone calls either, let it go to voice mail. Avoid, avoid, avoid if you you can't tell them to piss off.
