The Witnesses Are Really Trying Hard To Get Me Back In
by minimus inat my mom's bed side all i see is either jw family or friends making a concerted effort to have me return to their fold.

it's bad enough that i have to endure my mom's dying, now i have to be bombarded with this bs..

however, they are slowly fading that out into more digital publications.
we all have come to the conclusion that printed material from the wt is going way of the dinosaur.

My jw used to feel very strongly about televangelism, how will the r & f justify this in their heads? to me it is no different. Am I way off here? won't some of the older jw's also see it as move towards televangelism? -

Assembly next weekend
by Deltawave inso we have another assembly upon us next week and everyone is excited because.... it means no thursday meeting and no sunday meeting either.
i have to say it intrigues me how happy very dedicated witness's are about the week of freedom.
i jokingly said.... shouldn't we all be sad their is no meeting.. and the reply was "we should be but it's great isn't it!

What is the reason they don't have regular meetings when an assembly is coming up? Not that I mind, just wondering. I would think keeping the midweek & Sun meeting plus the 3 days of mind numbing dribble would make them extra dubby for quite some time. -

Is the letter real? What does it mean for weekday meetings? they are just changing the format? sorry to be dense.....
"Our Christian Life and Ministry Meeting: Beginning the week of January 4, 2016, congregations will have a new midweek meeting called Our Christian Life and Ministry. This one meeting will replace the three separate meetings currently being held, namely, the Congregation Bible Study, the Theocratic Ministry School, and the Service Meeting."
You mean the midweek meeting actually counts as 3 meetings? aagh! I am all messed up! someone refresh my memory, thanks much. (Sunday still counts as 2 meetings right?) why does this even matter? you go to the kh for say 2 hours, normal people would count it as 1 meeting but then we count generations differently too.
