so we had our book study last night.

we are nearing the end of the insane revelation book.

you know, the one that the watchtower says is 100% symbolic except for that bit about the 144,000 chosen ones?

You're just looking for an easier way of life. Slacker. (JW style answer for amusement only.)

It's not about smartness; it's about bias and open-mindedness. I feel more free than the dubs still inside.

The End of Circuit Overseers

is indeed apparently nigh as another poster predicted along with the end of the weekly bs.

not sure when this should take place but i'm reliably informed by a family member that one of the uk's overseers was talking about it fairly recently.

reduced to weekend visits by an outside but local elder instead.. i have no further info..

I was just a rank and file publisher, so I don't really know the ins and outs of a CO visit and its implications. Ex-elders: how effective were your CO's at enforcing Mother's wishes? Did you just give the right image for that week and then move on?

Also, did they enforce their own ideas, or were they Society men?

I'm trying to figure out how much enforcement/control CO's currently afford the Society.

most random scripture citation EVER
by veradico in
1. social
2. humour
did you ever notice, particularly in unimportant filler articles, that sometimes the writers of the society's publications cited scriptures which had very little to do with the subject at hand?

i'm not talking about the misleading use of scriptures, that is, when they would perpetrate amazing feats of eisegesis.

i'm talking about when they cited scriptures just because they felt like the sentence needed to end with a citation.
