Saw it long ago. Don't know why it was just released. It was bleak, surprising and action packed. I liked it for its creative take on the perpetual motion of a mindless system. Don't mess with sucess even if you find out its evil. No spoiler there trust me. I did like it. The org? Maybe, but any oppressive society fits.

Millions to friends of the Governing Body? Where do you get this BS? C'mon, lets try to be credible here. Give me proof of "Millions going to friends" or simply retract that crap. Not a fan of the GB but a fan of reasonable and accurate statements.

Street Work is hard! Take a look.
by Wasanelder Once inremember how we were told to engage people on the street, that standing and holding the magazines was not countable time?
those days are gone.
they have been reduced to the status of those guys on the street who hold huge "little ceaser" pizza signs and "homes for sale".

They have been reduced to the status of those guys on the street who hold huge "little Ceaser" pizza signs and "Homes for sale". Pathetic.
Here they are, hard at work in the fields rich for harvesting!

The Maze Runner
by Hairtrigger inwatched "the maze runner" this day.
couldn't help thinkng this could be an allegorical story on the wbts.
not as engrossing as "hunger games or "divergent", though along the same theme.

Saw it too. Dylan O'brien is a great little actor but they squandered him by making him this creature that just stares dramatically. Was way over done. There were lots of great things in it and I liked it very much. Especially the walls that turned and closed off areas. It has lots of excitement. The ending was kind of predictable and ended so abruptly I was wondering about whether this wasn't an introduction to something bigger coming later.

Witnesses and care of the elderly
by Lynnie inmy uber jw mother fell and broke her arm a couple of weeks ago.
first off no one told me until 5 days later when i called to check in with her.
there was someone staying with her at the time but that person was going to have to go elsewhere for a week.

Though it is especially heinous the way JW's treat the elderly, it is not uncommon for the elderly to be neglected. They just dont fill a need for most people. There are a few who enjoy helping others and can see through the stresses of being with those who are declining in years. Life rolls on and they are doing what the elderly did when they were younger, living. I take care of my dad (in his late 80's with chronic pain) and its not easy while dealing with my own health issues. In the end, witness or not, it is our family that we should be able to count on. Hope you can visit more often.

Why are alot of JW's Fascinated with Sci-Fi?
by NoMoreHustle ini am still in & gradually fading.
i have always wondered why alot of jw's that i know are really into alot of sci-fi stuff like star wars, i robot, x-men stuff etc.
i mean they take it another level with this fantasy stuff.

It's interesting that most Sci-fi is based on atheistic themes. You would wonder why somthing so "Ungodly" is so popular. Agreed, escapism where no God is referenced. not at all like a meeting!

What's "THE END" going to look like?
by Coded Logic inokay, so its no secret that many of us are hoping to see the downfall of the wtbts (or at least a mass exodous of jws away from them anyway).
i was wondering if you had any thoughts on what this might look like?.
we all know that most every jw has their doubts, large and small, but is afraid to speak due to the illusion of unanimity and self censorship .

The best Parable I have ever heard!
by Pinku innothing good exists outside jw world is the general thinking among jws.
if they read the heart of the enlightened (written by anthony de mello), they would probably feel how wrong they were!
story goes like this: there once lived a godly man.

Because those from whom this comes dont take into account God's name and its need for sanctification which is much more important than some old holy guys shadow. And come on now, what people need are magazines with JW.ORG plastered on them.
