I play sometimes when jackpot is high. But thinking of getting on it regularly. This will be offset from my KH contributions. At least in the UK the some of the lottery funding goes to good cause.

Very true. It is so annoying and disgusting. I bet she got brownie points at the local KH or maybe she will get an appearance on JW TV.
The first picture is interesting:
She is standing with a raised head, show of strength or something. While Obama is head down, sorry for the loss!
She is there to advertise not respect.

CHILD BAPTISM
by megabyte_vijay init is strange to read the last week watchtower that encouraging child/teenagers' baptism.
even jesus was baptised as his 30. jws encouraging marriages at an older age.
but why they are encouraging children to get baptised.

Technically they did not encourage child baptism. The article was how to make sure you are ready to be baptized. There was some advice mentioned on how to make sure the child is ready.
But what they failed to show is the examples they gave were not for children they were for youth. This group if for 15 -25 year old.
Unfortunately for every single JW family with children this article was playing on driving the children to ask the questions and think they are ready.
Although they mention it was a really important decision, one fact they forgot to mention if you take the decision to get baptized and later sin there is no way back. Like taking the red pill.

shutting down topics now?
by disposable hero of hypocrisy inhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5744214272901120/suicide-idea?page=3&size=10.
i can't comment on this topic on either of my devices or multiple browsers.. so we're shutting down topics now are we?
i'm assuming you've disabled commenting due to your feeling that it's a troll.

TBH, Simon can identify IP addresses and when accounts get created. Some users have been known to create multiple accounts and troll or fake stories.

One of the comments from JWtalk about this article
"You know what I've come to appreciate about us? Is that we are not overly-attached to material things. I mean, these properties contain our history, and are significant no doubt. But the Slave is setting an example for us that material things should not take priority.
Many, or better most, religions would hold on to their historical buildings even to their own detriment. We are more than willing to move on IF THE NEED ARISES. When this old world is gone, we will have to willing to leave our things behind.
The Slave is leading by example in this regard."
and another:
"But I just wanted to make the point that the GB just does 'preach' about how we should view material things, they act on it too. They've simplified when needed (and are doing that now in fact), and make the needed changes."

Just saw this on JW.org:
Interesting aspect on this is that is no mention at all for how much it was sold.
On Brooklyn Daily Eagle, it states that the building was sold for $105million to Florida Panthers (hockey team) owner.

Don't have full details yet, but GB members are no going to be in the UK only helpers on this Branch Visit.
It will on a Saturday for 3 hours including WT study.
In other words, another torture session!
Last time when GB member Sanderson was visiting, he announced that coincidentally during his visit the approval for Chelmsford plans was granted by the authorities.
Wonder what sort of coincidence this time will occur.
