The Invention of Lying
by AllTimeJeff in
1. jw
2. friends
i just watched this movie on video this weekend.

always meant to see it and just got around to it.

it was a brilliant movie, but not at all what i was expecting.. it's a story of a man who lives in a world where everyone says what is on their mind all the time, to the point of brutal honesty (no, i am not sleeping with you.").

The WTS's subliminal image '666'
by possible-san in
1. watchtower
2. bible
well, this is an information from a certain forum (2ch) in japan.. according to that information, apparently, that is in the article of "awake!, july 2010. p.21".

in that article (awake!

july 2010), the tetragrammaton (yhwh) is drawn in the triangle.. but when looking carefully, a part of those hebrew is different.. .

DVD "JW's Faith In Action, part 1 Out of Darkness" Omits! Omits! Omits!
by Wasanelder Once in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i've been watching the new dvd and it is a bull fest about russell.

i haven't even gotten half way and they already excluded one very important bit of information.

you'll recall that russell "lost" his faith and "turning away from church creeds and searching for truth, russell examined some leading oriental religions, only to find these unsatisfying".

let me just say i think american t.v is the most entertaining in the world.. i love the citcoms (seinfelt, everybody loves raymond ect ect) i grew up with rawhide, the virginian, star treck, rovkford files, starsky and hutch ect ect.. at the moment iam watching americas got talent (maybe it hasnt) but the shows great entertainment.

then i rememberd when i was in the u.s and how i felt american t.v sucked with all those commercials.. tell me do you have non commercial t.v.in the states?.

how much time is given to commersials with a 22 minute seinfet episode?.

Name The Band -- Game

1. jw
2. friends
ok i'll give the quote, you name the band.

you must link(or embed) a video of the song(official videos only--if there is no "official" video then a lyric video will suffice).

Joining other Organizations
by LV101 in
1. jw
2. friends
have recently tried a community organization and it seems to be the same drama as watchtower --- a hierarchy and power plays, omigoodness!

nancy drew mentioned staying away from these (smart idea) but thinking they're community driven (this one i've joined is barely hanging on because of aging membership and involves a lot of work, meetings) but people join to meet friends, to be social, bla bla.

they do donate to a charity or two (very little w/limited funds) but not much, and feel it's not worth all the work/effort involved if they can't help the community which is suffering.

female elders
by bigmac in
1. jw
2. friends
traditionally, women have had a poor deal from the society: no positions of responsibility, no priviledges.. at the same time, the congregations have suffered from an acute shortage of elders.. ( the society have long realised that many elders are simply puppets, with their wife's hand inserted within pulling the strings).

all is about to change!.

new light has been revealed!.
