I can just imagine the sort of losers/abusers/misfits etc you are going to attract, you are probably one yourself, walk away their lifestyle doesn't work.

Printing presses, bye... bye...
by sp74bb inbye... bye.... no more new printing presses for jw.org... the growth is so tremendous (irony...).. all printing work in europe will be arrange in the next month only in selters (germany), but no renovation or upgrading in printing presses is expected... it will be a full outsourcing :).
a worldly company axel s******* will be used.
this company is known to be printing bild newspaper... the interesting part of it is the logistics will be as well outsourced.

I'm with the "no it didn't happen" camp, same The Flood, The Destruction of S&G, Lots wife being turned into a pillar of salt, Jonah being eaten by a giant fish etc.

Born Twice - Die Once .... Born Once - Die Twice
by Perry injesus taught that we must die unto ourselves, and allow the holy spirit to take up residence within us.
some people get saved by simply inviting jesus into their hearts, to be the lord of their life.
this serves as a countering force within the born-again christian to counterbalance the will of the flesh, which is still unsaved in this life and destined for destruction in imitation of our lord himself.. attempting to live the christian life without having this spirit within you is a waste of time at the minimum, and dangerous on the downside.

I'd like to see the list also, I'm intrigued by the guy with the Chinese sounding name, where has he come from and why has he been fast tracked to the the committee, what is known about him? clearly not a previous old style heavyweight, seems plucked from obscurity but I smell a rat somewhere, somethings not quite right with him, I sense he may not even be a jw.

must a lot of noses out of joint and sour faces from the heavyweights of the UK Bethel, good, I hope they suffer,they've ruled that place in a dreadful manner over the decades. The question remains though what is the real purpose that Chelmsford is going to be used for? a retirement home? purely residential ?

That good old JW rumour mill
by punkofnice inbecause i simply decided the watchtower corporation wasn't the truth(tm) i was da'd in a secret jc that i didn't attend.
i was writing songs with a friend that day instead.. jws wasted no time in labelling me as an evil villain.
the rumours abounded.. i was labelled as 'a false prophet'.

LOL the old rumour mill, it ranged from the usual demonic possession to even my own sanity, over 20 years later there is still life left in the old Jook.

Availability Crisis of Conscience.
by Ben131895 inmost of us are desperately waiting for the availability of a legal crisis of conscience.
deborah dykstra provided us with two updates.
on december 12, 2015 there was a clear statement about the copyright which stopped all illegal activity in spreading electronic versions & prints.. finally, she promised a new update by or before may 6.. so far no new update.

It's not going to happen is it? why cant someone stand up and give some proper official announcement about how near or far the completion for copyright transfer and print run is? is it so hard? there was no update as promised on or before the 12th June, what a surprise!

No Reason For JWs To Go To The MIdweek Meeting (CLAM)
by JW_Rogue ineverything that is done at the midweek meeting can now be done at home.
the videos are online, the first talk is scripted, the bible highlights are scripted.
you could get the same experience by just reading and watching the material from your tablet.

LR, the most brain dead numbskulls are now thinking how much of a waste of time the whole thing is, look at the apathy, the growth rates, a worldwide growth rate of 1.5% last year! who'd have ever predicted that 20/30 years ago? they are slowly dying.
