    What's up with the 10 virgins? After all that time the new light is that they were not virgins after all???

    They are "basic" virgins.

    And to think the average publisher was once given a minimum limit of 60 hours a month. Special pious-sneers were supposed to do 175 hours, while regular pious-sneers were required to do 150. Besides that, there were minimum limits imposed on everyone (regluar publishers included) on return visits and placements, and studies.

    But even the 10 is a waste of time. Imagine if the congregation is trying to see who they can send to do missionary work in Israel. You do not want to go, so you dog your field circus. You turn in times around 4 or 5 hours a month, and that is manageable even though you are still wasting your time. However, now they have this crap, and you are guilted into doing it. Of course, they will not take no for an answer with such a request even though you owe them nothing. You sign up, and you get the 10 hours a month in. Within 6 months, they decide you qualify for that mission in Israel, and they make it look like you are going to be destroyed unless you go (or, in certain cases, they threaten that you agreed to do all you absolutely can for joke-hova with your baptism and threaten legal action). Do you wish to qualify for such "privileges"? I do not.

    Thank you all for dispelling the "10 hour Pioneer" rumor.

    Glad to see that set to rest once and for all.

    Hildebrando's source was apoarently a guy who calls himself "Testigo Humano" (TH) or "Human Witness". Hildebrando even stated on his website that the 10 hour pioneer thing was a rumour. This guy definitely comes to this site and steals info. He got the picture jwfacts posted and spinned it in a pro-jw website. He also got the flag in Chile pictures posted soon after I posted them to this site. He has various pro-jw sites and groups and pages on FB, and is disliked by both the JW and the exJW community. He's technically a JW but acts as neither.

    The email I received with the meeting highlights, (from former Bethelites), said there is a "basic pioneer" and details would be forthcoming.

    "Whats up with the 10 virgins?" They are now an "overlapping" virgin class!

    Hmmm, overlapping virgins. May be something to this crazy religion after all!
