Probably a good idea to download the original videos, while they're still available, just in case you need them one day.
Maybe show the video to the next JW who comes knocking and ask for an ASL transcript, plus an explanation.

I need Splaney to do some 'splainin about that smug look on his mate's face as reported by Outlaw...
the recent letter being us to come to detroit shows that jws are beginning not to take the gb seriously anymore.
the buzz following the meeting was that the letter was unprecedented in its tone.
this coming from long time jws of 30 years plus.
(2 Timothy 3:9) . . .Nevertheless, [the GB] will make no further progress, for their madness will be very plain to all. . .
Could someone please write the GB advising them of their followers' apathy and indifference toward them.
GB, ramp it up already...
my heart is heavy as i write this letter.
i have been trying to live my life as best that i can since leaving jehovah's witnesses.
my dad was not a witness and was my rock when i left the religion.
The Searcher's advice seems spot on to me...
i remember reading a thread when my exit was starting, about inspirational songs.
someone posted a link to the "shins" for a fool.
this was a surprising help to me.
where in the christian greek scriptures do disciples of christ record how many hours a month they preached.. " " " " 10 hours for women and children and slack husbands with no ambition.
" " " " do they record how many back calls / return visits they made in a month.. " " " " have they set down how many bible studys they had in a month.. " " " " do they have pioneers ,special pioneers , aux.pioneers , with goals to reach each month.. " " " " do they have d.o.
, c.o., zone servants , etc.etc.. " " " " where in the christian greek scriptures is the word " organisation" applied to christianity.
There is simply no way the WBTS can afford to follow first century Christianity.
They and their organisation (VISIBLE golden calf) would be revealed as irrelevant at best and evil/apostate at worst.
The WBTS carefully keeps its followers from learning about the Good News according to Paul, Moses, Isaiah and Psalms.
This is quite an impressively evil feat since more than half their own Bible's 152-odd references to "good news" are by Paul.
just thought i would let you know there appears to still be no change when it comes to assisting the police here in the uk.
i am in the process of pressing charges against my abuser who was and is again a jw.
during my interviews with the police i did not mention jws as it was not relevant to the case, however during one if his interviews he stated that he had been 'punished' by the jws by being disfellowshipped, and now he was a jw again he had 'paid his dues'!.
He may have paid his dues to the "ruling religious clergy class", but now he can pay his dues to the victim, society and Caesar.
Best wishes.
What are your thoughts about going the Candace Conti route?
i had a bunch of tiny little nags that always bothered me about the bible/god/etc.
that eventually led to me drifting away, but this was my personal, singular issue that no one could address.
i think i mentioned it before here, but, for summation again:.
Rejection of "imputed righteousness" by the "ruling religious clergy class" (aka "elders", CO, DO, ZO, GB).
though judicial committee arrangement is found in mathew 18:15-20, this seems to be a later apostate interpolation!
(acts 20:28-30):.
1) jesus would not speak of such a heartless arrangement whereby a person who does not listen to the church is finally disfellowshipped, because it is in sharp contrast to what he was saying in mathew 18:14 and mathew 18:21-35; 1 peter 2:22; contrast also mathew 5:3, 40, 41; 16:24.. 2) jesus would not have told his disciples (mathew 18:1) to take things to the church (presently more than 40,000 in numbers) which obviously did not exist then.
"Judicial Committee arrangement is found in Matthew 18:15-20"
That is not what I get from reading this passage...
my wife and i recently took the decision to fade out progressively and we are now in the stage where we no longer assist to our meetings.
in this process, we have told the truth to our respective parents but have not forced ourselves upon them; meaning that: we will talk about it when you want to.
as a result, my mother in-law already had some conversations with my wife on why we no longer went, but never brought up the subject with me, at least, up until yesterday.. she was telling us that a good deal of people miss us at the meeting and i answered that i missed them also.
Very well reasoned, and very well done ecan6.
