Remember when KH's had a piano and real singing?
by WingCommander inthe thread about got me thinking about my very early childhood, back when witnesses were allowed to be social and have get togethers.
they also had a piano in every congregation i ever attended, and an older sister would always play the kingdom melody.
there was actual singing - not mindless droning and humming.

What outward signs of apostacy are evident in your house?
by AK - Jeff inif the elders came and inspected your home - what would they find?.
a casual look around reveals a box of "narnia" tissues on my desk, 12 or 14 non-witness translations of bibles on my shelves, many non approved novels [wifey's] on the reading table, plenty of 'apostate literature', a book or two on meditation, a hypnosis cd for weight loss, prob many toys that are not witness approved in the g-kids room, a half eaten birthday cake, a birthday balloon, xmas wrapping paper in the closet , a couple of r rated movies, music that is not acceptable.. that is just at first blush.
how is your house?

The Organization Is A (fill in the blank space)
by metatron inok, here's the challenge: how do you tell your witness "friends" and relatives that you don't think it's the "truth" - without them labeling .
you as an apostate and fleeing in terror?
i'm tired of questions behind my back like "doesn't he go to meetings?

Was Rutherford Mentally Ill?
by VM44 inin the golden age goodies thread leolaia has posted two letters that were printed in the magazine written by rutherford, one in 1928 and the other in 1938. in both letters rutherford states either that radio "was created by god" or "no man invented radio".. rutherford also goes into his conspiratorial ideas of how the roman catholic church was working with the nazis to overthrow the governments of england and of the usa to bring in a totalitarian fascist government to both countries.. these remarks sound like the ravings of someone who is not mentally all there.. so the question that naturally arises is this: was rutherford mentally ill?.
i believe that he was.. --vm44

How many themes are covered in the WT articles?
by Check_Your_Premises ini love data.
especially in charts.
i can visually "see" things that i just can't by relying on memory and current perceptions.. i thought an interesting peice of data to track over time is the "type" of articles published by the wt.

context is everything.
when we say this means this; we are really invoking cause and effect.. life, you must admit, is a small four-letter word.
