  here is a quote from this book : .

  "a pleasant contrast to this type were the female jehovah's witnesses, called "bible bees" or "bible worms.

  Wow, thanks for posting that.

  I would think it is logical that the hardest working, trustworthy, ones who wouldn't preach to children happened to be assigned to work in the homes of officers. As another poster pointed out, this seems to just speak to the individual personalities and not the general group.

  And then he goes and makes the generalization about "all of" them having the same attitude about Jews--which we know exactly mirrors what wts put in its publications about Jews.

  Don't know what to make of this--the source, the statements, etc. Wow though.

  OP, may we have the title of the book?

  OrphanCrow, omg--interesting stuff.

  Live streaming judicial committee hearings

  LOL. How about a People's Court version?

  What you are witnessing is real. The participants are not actors. They are actual judicial committees with an appeal pending in a kangaroo court. Both parties have agreed to dismiss their court cases and have their disputes settled here, in our forum: The People's Court. Judge Wapner is not an Elder, which is totally fine because Judge Rutherford was not a judge. He will use common sense to settle this, unlike the Elders. Will he order anyone to be shunned? Will he ask for details about loose conduct, like what type of panties people were wearing and if they had orgasms? Watch live.

  ^Seriously? That is just weird.

  Oh, just checked it in context. Makes a *little* more sense now. Before, it's hinting at bloodguilt and a xian's responsibility not to infect anyone. After, it talks about blood. mmkay.

  But anyway, they never taught you can't touch or kiss a corpse. Maybe they're saying it now, in the specific situation of Ebola and the like, but it's never been a global thing with them.

  Embalming is "cleaning and dressing" a corpse:

  Scripturally, then, there is no need for concern if local requirements mandate that the body be embalmed or family members desire that this take place. [wt library]

  Another lie. When I was 'in', the lying really bothered me. I wonder why it doesn't bother them enough to leave.

  What do you mean, "fabricated load of rubbish"? Multiple media sites are reporting this same quote from the government, and the articles states the UN Women's somethingorother is involved as well.

  It's not clear what is meant--other articles are saying dubs are involved in relief efforts.

  we also avoid unscriptural burial practices
  
  the traditional burial practice of mourners in Liberia involves bathing, dressing and even kissing the corpse
  
  I'm sorry, WTF?! Since when do jws avoid cleansing, dressing and kissing corpses?! What a lie.

  This could be interesting. I always observed a sort of mystique about the GB. It was so unusual to ever meet one or hear one speak. Don't know that I ever did, come to think of it. And now they will be right in your living room--not so special after all.
