That was then, this is now...
by Flip injw attitudes are not what they used to be in watch tower land, and theyre changing rather quickly.
in fact, many here have stated that they expect the societies attitude to go mainstream some day.. compared to the time of my tenure as a jehovahs witness, the wtbts is already there; at least the perks are getting better, less window washing and cut-rate travel in the company of persons that guarantee a preferred profile.. to illustrate, check out the link.
apparently, just before the imminent destruction of this old, weary, wicked system of things takes place, jehovahs witnesses (in good standing) might as well create an industry and enjoy discovering what was once considered the devils playground while they urgently wait for jehovah to spring the big a and prang all the householders that should have been preached to while jehovahs publishers were out having a ball.. im all for a good time but a little skeptical about that twin towers complex tour though.. .

In case you've missed this...
by Flip in.
http://www.canoe.ca/cnews/yourview.html.
actually, if you scroll down further, there are several current 'letters to the editor' in response to the young jehovah's witness living in alberta, canada that required a court order to receive blood transfusions during her fight with leukemia.. any one associated with jehovahs witnesses could research the issue and submit a comment if they are so inclined.. flip

What...me worry?
by Flip infarkel, well be hearing more about a wonderful inventor named dean kamen this coming monday.
once we've become more familiar with his extraordinary accomplishments, many should be grateful this particular individual didnt spend his youth listening to the wtbts to pursue the moronic behavior of going door to door as a jehovahs witness.. the reason i singled you out farkel is because of the current icon you use, ... his father helped start mad magazine -- kamen is ... alfred e. neuman.. * http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/99/11/22/991122opmetcalfe.xml.

Prince in the news, one more time
by Flip inno doubt about, the watchtower (insert digital temperature and time display here) environment appears to be loosening...if you have more money than the corporation.
.

liability dispensation...
by Flip inif jehovahs organization on earth, namely the wtbts was liable for an accident, which caused persons injury, or death i.e.
automobile, slippery sidewalk, etc.
does jehovah's society use an at arms length insurance company to take the fall for jehovah rather than publicly implicating his corporation?.

Short history of Biblical Translation article
by Flip infor the biblical historical aficionado only, a short but concise history of bible translation.... http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/85feb/transbib.htm.
although in the article, jehovah is mentioned during the squabble of 1885 (look for it), i found it curious that the watchtower bible & tract society and/or jehovahs witnesses is made conspicuous by the absence of any mention in spite of their self-proclaimed biblical importance.
its good that the wtb&ts proclaims the corporation is used as jehovahs 'wallet', because theres little credibility, other than financial, with anyone else but themselves.

Significance of the "Pure Theocratic"...
by Flip infor inquiring minds and pushy folks like myself who like to do other peoples web surfing for them :), concise description of what language makes the wtbts and the 'rank and file' jehovah's witnesses tick.. [link] http://www.unc.edu/~elliott/langid.html[/link].
recommend you have a glass of water handy though, it's information well done but pretty dry stuff in my opinion.. and as an additional informational bonus, medic awake inc. will file your "biblically correct" durable power of attorney, health care advance directive and designation of surrogate forms all in one convenient place...for a reasonable fee and have your "chosen" personal info ready when you need it.
may jehovah's kingdom come soon, but in the mean time, let's not push it.. [link] http://www.medicawake.com/theplan.html[/link].
