In todays paper the Mormons have even admitted DTD is not the most effective way to reach people.
by life is to short inthere was an short article in my local paper today that started out with "mormons expand use of technology".
i am horrible at scanning so i will quote some of the article, it said "the common images of mormon missionaries has long been two young men wearing white shirts and ties walking through neighborhoods, knocking door-to-door.
but in a few years, that image may be replaced by one of young mormons sitting with an ipad, typing messages on facebook.

If everyones thinking the same way then someone is not thinking.
by life is to short ini was watching the voice last night and cee lo green said that to one of the contestants.. dose that not sound like the jw's.
if i ever had a question it was always wait on jehovah and try not to think of it anymore.
or just keep your blinders on and look straight ahead to the new system.

NPR with Trey Bundy anyone hear anything from the JW's about it.
by life is to short ini received a call from one of my job's on saturday who lives in settle wa, she was driving and listening to npr and the interview came on, she said she was shocked at how the jw's are dealing with the child abuse problem.
she has family who are hard core jw's and was sick that her grandchildren could be affected.. she cannot be the only one who has heard this on npr.
just wondering if there will be any fall out from it or if like everything else it will all just die down in jw land.

I was wrong about the picture in the Learn from the Great Teacher book. I am sorry
by life is to short ini now totally understand thanks to the great and wonderful insight that justitia themis and fleman uk have given to me that there is no problem with pedophiles in the jw's.. i have been totally over emotional from what i can understand them to mean.. what was it justitia themis called me, illogical.
justitia themis said that i clearly said that i am "desperate to bring down the religion," i never said that!
she took my words out of context.
