I think it's incredibly ironic and sad that they're using the term Manhattan Project. This enterprise could also lead to the destruction of innocent lives.

This is nothing more than street work without a request for a donation from the public. Instead, piosneers and/or their congregational benefactors will be forced to purchase more and more of the Watchtower's drivel. It's a sales drive, folks!

We are NOT official representatives of an organization; the Branch will NOT do this for us.
LOL
Three types of people will be encountered in this field: those who work there, live there, are "out-of-towners"
In other words everyone!
It was commented that the Circuit Overseers in our area all unanimously opted to even step down from traveling work and become local Regular Pioneers so as to qualify for this project
somehow doesn't sound right to me
Governing Body is keenly interested in our results and are praying for us.
This is classic! LOL I will pray for them too. Obviously GB are too busy to get their lazy asses out on the street.
Is this actually for real or is this another BS rumor spread by some delusional dub, can this be confirmed to be true? I wouldn't want the "angels who have been assigned to the mid-heavens over NYC" to get disappointed that New Yorkers might not get a chance to get saved while the billion chinese will just have to become bird food.
I can't believe I was part of this organization!

"Manhattan Project...it was acknowledged at the meeting that the previous worldly use of
this term cost millions of lives (in producing the atom bomb); but this new
use of the phrase intends to instead SAVE many lives...)How about respecting the millions dead and chose a different name?
We are certainly NOT looking for any confrontation to be on the news,
such as those Wall Street confrontations in the world.They why call it the Manhattan Project?Jehovah whittled down Gideon's army from 32,000 to
only 300. How did the Bible instruct to select them? Gideon's men were
chosen because of their ALERTNESS and their concern for true worshipSo if you're not chosen then you have been individualled judged and assessed not to have these qualities.
Each Zone will be under the oversight of one of four 'Couple' grads (who at
present still don't even have their housing arrangements settled down!
That's an indication of the urgency of this project, due to the fact that
we're living in the time of the end.)They have only four couples to find homes for and have not been able to do this, even though they have spent time establishing the project, printing extra bibles, calling for expressions of interest and training these couples. But the most interesting part of this is they are actually putting females in charge of 'a zone'. Will this mean that they will be directing the brothers within their zone?
We are NOT official representatives of
an organization; the Branch will NOT do this for us.Amazing how they can seperate volunteers from the organization.
the Circuit Overseers and their wives who have
been so instrumental in getting "legs" to this Manhattan Project; teaching
us by enacting the "do's" and the "don'ts".The CO wives have been 'teaching' - I hope they were wearing head coverings.

first of all, these people are deranged. second of all, these people are deranged.
this reminds me of when obama got elected, and hillary gave the russians a big red button. she said it was the "reset button" for usa/russian relations. like yea...read your bible, maybe you should be handing out a book without serious non stop continuous violence? this will save lives instead of what the atom bomb did...the bible is even more violent than the atom bomb..heh. in terms of coverage in loss of violent death.

Don't know how they are going to just throw out Bibles on the streets to people! Quite an expense. How much were they, off the record, getting (as average donations) for Bibles recently? Follow-ups will still be so difficult. How many would really give their email or cell phone #s to a stranger on the street? All weird!!

Another example of following the LDS Church. Family Study Night was nicked as an idea from them.
As the LDS Church is growing faster than them ,I guess the boys in the Marketing Department think it is down, in good measure, to the MormonMishie Boys on the street. The LDS boys (never girls, notice?) give away free copies of the Book of Mormon willy nilly, so JW's are copying that, and trying to get your contact details, yup LDS do that too.
I used to do street work ,when it wasn't done by hardly any other JW's, it is more fun than DtoD, but no more effective I would say, and probably less so if they are simply standing behind a six foot table. Copy the LDS they might, but they can't even make a good job of that.

man oh man
giving out bibles? I thought it was the watchtower that saved lives? is this a flip flop? Probably just trying to get rid of those bibles so they don't have to ship em to the new headquarters. To bad its not some other translation!
