  How Will the Court Deal With Deceit?

  by compound complex in

  given the recent information on lawrence hughes' days in court the last of may, how could "caesar" deal with the deceptive methods of the wtb&ts?

  i understand that such information has been entered into the court record.

  please consider an example of what jw children are coached to say and not to say: .

  The Hope For Our Dying Home-Earth...An Inconvenient Truth

  yesterday it was the day of the global inviroment.

  as i walked to the street going to work, the main square of the capitol was filled with small children and their teachers with huge paintings, songs, art work with recycled elements demanding a cleaner plannet.

  when the old generation will pass those little ones that will take in charge with all the inviromental education they had they will go for a better world.i'm sure about it, you could see it in their small eyes.

  Hmm, attacking the person rather than their data. Hands up anyone here who's experienced that...

  MTS School???

  by LearningMore in

  could someone explain what mts is?

  i am assuming it is ministerial training school, but i don't really know the significance of it.

  i keep hearing reference to it, but i guess i don't understand who attended, and what sort of prestige it provided.

  Sounds wonderful. So the Society intensively trains someone to fix things, and them sends them to congregations which need fixing for them to be resented by the elders trying to keep their little authority fantasy going who don't want things fixed by an outsider?

  you can always tell your rank as a brother at the memorial by the following:.

  parking lot attendant = just doing enough to have the boe remember your name.

  outside attendat = you smell pretty bad and you embarrass the boe.

  Fun game for the convention

  so you already know how much the parking nazi's aggravate me.. so every time that we have gone to the dc, i have my kids guess how many morons it take to help me park my care ( i word it nicely as i don't want to be a jerk in front of my kids ) the last time, it took 15 idiots to point me to a parking spot.. guess how many people it took to help me park when i went to a nfl football game last year ( 75,000 people attended the game ).....2....one on the street with a flag and a second to collect the $$.. the amazing thing was that there were no accidents at the football game and all of the cars somehow fit in the spaces without 4 teenage jw's pointing at the exact smae spot..

  Hey! As an ex-parking attendant I can inform you that I was a very valued member of the team, and I personally helped to ensure that all the cars would be able to exit after the sessions were over. So there! ;)

  James,
  
  Personalisation of literature with names is something I saw around about a year ago. I don't know where they had it done.
