1934 German letter
by oscartheduck ini've been looking at this letter for some time.. and researching it's origins.. i can't find anything conclusive, really.
i can't locate a denial of its existance from the society, but i haven't got access to any literature anymore, having left it all behind when i moved country to america from england.
so...is there any reference to it in, for example, the proclaimers book?.

First time researching the WT organisation
by oscartheduck ini've not researched the organisation before in any true level of detail.. i left it about eight months back, after coming to my own conclusions regarding the accuracy of lots of things it has released.
i simply believed that it was no longer printing anything worthwhile, really.
it had contradicted itself too many times.. i was brought up in the religion, and was baptised at 14, and afterwards stayed in it for three years.

Elders are infallible!
by oscartheduck ini remember talking to an elder about judicial commitees whilst we were on a security shift (which lasted for twenty minutes each during the meetindgs, with other brothers coming out after your twenty minutes was up to take your place).
he was feeling open because he had just been on one that disfellowshipped a young woman whom he had watchde grow up in "the truth".. so we were chatting and i asked him "what if you make a mistake?
" and he said "oh, we don't make mistakes, god's holy spirit is directing us.".

watchtower finances
by oscartheduck inif revenues for brooklyn bethel per year alone are equivalent to 951 million dollars, then this is about 158.5 per witness(given six million witnesses).. there's more money than that coming in worldwide, because of the other bethels in the world.. .
so, where does the money come from?
i think that should be checked into...or my maths should be checked into.. .

Done or not done?
by oscartheduck inwhat's more important?
what i'm getting at is, is it more important to impose your views on what is right in the bible, or to encourage other members of your religion?.
i remember that my past seems to be more a memory of elders telling people "oh, that's wrong.

CO website
by oscartheduck injust thought some of you might like this, especially if you were there when all the "don't put up jehovah's witness websites" warnings were sprayed at us: http://www.angelfire.com/ky/proclaimer/.
it contains at least one reproduction of a society's letter concerning the net.... ============================.
