Local needs talk
by hoser inone of the elders was missing his service bag and suspected that one of the publishers stole it.
he was determined to root out who did it so he decided to give a local needs part on the ten commandments focusing on you must not steal.. he enlisted the help of a trusted ministerial servant and got him to stand at the back of the kingdom hall during the part.
he told the ms that he would read off the ten commandments and when he got to the one "you must not steal" he would pause longer than usual and see if anyone acted nervous or suspicious.

I though it was ironic that I found this on an obviously, very tightly moderated proJW FB page.
They will feel pride in the publications, yet the caption creates cognitive dissonance.
It could unknowingly awaken some to the flawed doctrine and false teachings.

Living in the era of "Generation Me"
by campaign of hate inthis really got to me today at the wt study.. i am not ashamed to admit, i am part of that "generation".. you get one role of the dice in this life, you got to take what you can now, in order to have a good quality life later.. i agree, we need to help and show love to our fellow man.
but, not when this becomes the priority above our own needs, wants and aspirations.. welcome to "generation me" wt, this is my time.. peace out..

Tell us more about the lesson's content.
Coincidentally, my wife out of the blue, used the term "generation me" today. I later read this topic and asked her if she heard it in the lesson. She did.

Is 1919 Important to the WT?
by Anon_SA1 indoes anyone know if the wt still claims they were appointed in 1919?
is there proof of this appointment?
any ideas where i can find out how they get to this date?
-

If they invoke Nu-Lite, then every publication that mentions 1919 was wrong.
Big gamble.
Wait for a revised Revelation book to provide "brighter light"...
Proof, you ask?
That doesn't exist.

Talking to support and contacts at WT HQ
by Juan Viejo2 ini have a story to share about my calls to wt ny hq this past week.
i was quite surprised by the level of disinterest and lack of concern from the two contacts that i spoke to.
rather than jumping right in and sharing my experience - and perhaps "poisoning the well," i'd like to read experiences of others on this forum who had the urge or need to call the wt contact number.. btw - mine was not an apostate rant or overly critical of the wt and was presented in a friendly and helpful way.

Trying to play on people's fears.
Sadly, it's the JWs that were afraid when "publishing" that article as they were the ones that had to make the presentations.
That article was out just about the time I quit reporting time.

Theocratic warfare [AKA Lying for the Truth]
by TTWSYF inmy elder brother made the mistake of telling me about the wts policy of theocratic warfare.
he first called it 'lying for the truth' then he tried to tone it down to theocratic warfare.
he justifies this position by citing the scriptures that say do not throw pearls to the swine for they will trample them under foot and tear you to pieces.. my question is .

The watchtower is full of lies.
