Participation Conundrum Solved
by IMHO inthe reason you are encouraged told to participate is because for the r&f it's the only thing they can take away when you've been naughty.
as it is deemed a 'privilege'.. although we are told that 'participation' is a demonstration of our love and faith.
therefore what they are saying is that they are allowed to restrict our demonstration of our love and faith.. interestingly 'cleaning the kh' is also deemed a privilege but you never hear of anyone with restrictions not being allowed to do so..

by IMHO inat a recent sad the visiting bethel brother after passing on the love of the branch committee (which is bad enough, they used to say the 'bethel family' didn't they), he then made it worse (for me) by adding that he has also been told to pass on the love of the governing body.. that doesn't sit quite right with me but i can't really explain why.
any thoughts?.

Convention Questions - No.3
by IMHO inwhy are the sessions so long?.
most experts in business training, seminars or conferences will tell you the length of time someone can concentrate and take in information is a lot less than the 2-3hr session you get at conventions.. although i'm sure the convention planners believe standing to sing a song (and having to remain standing for announcements) is considered a break..

i find them very strange and false (in the convention setting).. plus how many people actually know what a solioquy actually is?.
i'm sure even less people have even heard the word outside a convention, unless they study shakespear..
