Real Estate / Legal Question re: KH Sales / Title Transfers
by RubaDub insorry about being a bit lazy and not researching this myself but when there is a real estate sale, as far as i know, this is public information and on record ( at least in most areas i am aware of).. a kh sale would be a public record.. but when a real title is transferred, isn't this public information also?
.
i ask this question because there seems to be some questions here that the publishers did not know the title of their kh had been transferred to the big borg.. any thoughts on this.. rub a dub.

A technical clarification re "New Scientist"
by Doug Mason inthe following is not a criticism of the wts.
i am providing this for technical clarification and my expectation for accuracy.. endnotes 43 and 45 on page 27 of the wts’s brochure, “the origin of life” refer to the new scientist periodical of 30 may 2009.. the text in the wts’s brochure does not match the text of the new scientist’s online article.
further investigation shows that the online text does not accurately replicate the text that appeared in print in the physical magazine.

video games sports etc
by Akid48 inmaybe two or three weeks ago we had a meeting at the hall about sports which was pretty bad.why do they act like they support sports or videos while they say at the same time they say you can't do 90% of anything of those things,maybe the video says you can play sports here and there but then you have the social problem of brothers and sisters looking down on you for liking sports more or liking to watch sports more than take hours out of your day sitting down going over the watchtower or reading a bible.
is it just me more i think as a teen you should at least being doing something even if its not sports maybe music or anything a teen likes,because every time i try and talk to a teen in the kingdom hall they seem off or flat out weird,its like there a different type of teen or something they cant relate to anything that you would usually talk about i don't know there just off and i feel like locking them up and locking there brains is just horrible..
