There's an aside in there where he tells the man to stop with the planned gestures and says "Unless they are unrealized by the speaker, gestures are not useful anyway."<br />Thats true for the discipline of oratory, to some degree (HWA was hardly a well-read expert on the subject). But for a video presenter it's actually a different ballgame. I suspect Thiel, if pressed to defend his flailings, would reach for HWA for support, not production standards.RSKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06427255805476848046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-11597763227142758752017-12-26T05:10:53.837-08:002017-12-26T05:10:53.837-08:00Bahahaha.

Gaffer's tape. <br />One of the downsides of working in television is that we often get starry-eyed people posing as "talent" who show off their inexperience/ineptitude by giving a performance akin to Thiel's. I'd rather not just toss them out on their ears after failing a tryout, but just saying "Don't talk with your hands, its extremely distracting on camera" doesn't usually get the job done. It's frequently an unconscious habit... or in rare cases, a darling "sin" nurtured by vanity.<br /><br />But hey, here's another inside tip. On at least one major news network I know of, the anchors wore shoes that were literally bolted to the floor. Why? It kept them from visibly swiveling or squirming around, fouling the camera angle during live broadcasts. :)<br />RSKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06427255805476848046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-78295228519579170522017-12-25T14:38:05.133-08:002017-12-25T14:38:05.133-08:00I will be publishing a article on Thiel Dec. 31st....I will be publishing a article on Thiel Dec. 31st. <br /><br />"The Year Ahead."<br /><br />Its how I feel about this parasite on the ass of humanity.

That is generally the only measuring standard which "they" can understand. Those who revere HWA as having been quasi-biblical figure "God's Apostle" have generally continued to adhere to the standards of quality which HWA set for his ministry. Bob Thiel does not measure up to those standards. Nobody else does, either, but Bob still falls into the lowest percentile of those who try. Worse yet, he calls himself a prophet in conflict with HWA's teaching that there are no prophets in this era. And, now, we learn that he actually failed his "attack" speech in Spokesman's Club, possibly due to weak material. In Armstrongism, that was always considered to be the most important one! If you couldn't ace that one, there were whispers about a deficiency of male hormones!<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-6989734643918095192017-12-25T07:37:00.751-08:002017-12-25T07:37:00.751-08:00And tying people's hands together.

If you don't fit the standard you are automatically "disqualified" as a human being. <br /><br />The thing is, I do the same to them due to their unreasonableness. I don't think they know *how* to be a human being. Too many rules and regulations. Binding unreasonable/heavy burdens on people's shoulders. <br /><br />Loud laughter is also frowned upon. Anything that is freely and naturally expressed is deemed "sinful" or 'wrong'. Joy is also included in that. Try "making a joyful noise" and see what happens. You MUST control your natural self. It's "evil". Pbttht!

Marked departure from normalcy and totally bizarre. That's analogous to Bob's gestures. Honestly, I hope he does keep gesturing as he does because it means that people won't ever even get around to hearing or considering the stupid message. But, I'm sure that he would hope to be effective, and if that's the case, he's going to need to polish things up a bit.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-47708376185365063282017-12-25T06:10:19.193-08:002017-12-25T06:10:19.193-08:00lol!!!lol!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-86428206587487072902017-12-25T06:06:07.072-08:002017-12-25T06:06:07.072-08:00if its good enough for sodom and pompeii, its good...if its good enough for sodom and pompeii, its good enough for cali...what, yall thought silicon valley in all its secular wisdom would be able to build a tower high enough to escape the Wrath of God?<br /><br />it wouldnt have mattered had we actually achieved hal like ai, God is able to Punish us, so the elderly people what run this blog need to understand that even u will not be escaping Punishment...<br /><br />i predict at least one of the admins will suffer elder abuse at the hands of a gen zer...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-35180949435806839682017-12-25T04:45:09.028-08:002017-12-25T04:45:09.028-08:00No matter what negative things are said about Bob ...No matter what negative things are said about Bob Thiel, you have to admire the man for standing up for the truth of God's word.Rita M.
