  lett is back with a vengance!.

  * the last money-begging effort increased donations by 15% for two months; a letter by a 13 year old who donated is read out loud.

  * since last may "so many good things have happened".

  Wannaexit: its in the first 20 minutes. Theres a bit about how happy jehovah is for everyone and then he discuss the donations. Its more subtle this time (no direct begging)

  On the plus side (from a jw-perspective), it makes the broadcasts with the helpers seem like an episode of game of thrones in comparison.

  Sir82: My thoughts exactly. 15% for *two* months, duh. I bet donations went right back to normal and the current e-begging campaign is going to have less of an impact.

  * Since last may "so many good things have happened". This is: They continue to feed bethelites, they fund the construction project at bethel, various construction projects & purchase of video equipment at convention centers ("Seeing the participants up close holds our attention and enhances our learning experience"), and build kingdom halls & remote translation offices.

  ...but they still need more money...

  * Quote: "The governing body has re-analysed ways to cut back at all branches to re-direct money to the field. including long-standing Bethel routines and services". Layoffs not mentioned directly but implied.

  * Lett is surprised some people do not believe in god in sweeden, lol.

  * Various things they spend money on is mentioned to demonstrate the donations are used well.

  * Song is about getting your children into the religion and generally giving "your very best" to the religion. ugh.

  Is the Pioneer School being eliminated?

  i heard from the semi reliable source that the pioneer schools will go the way of the dodo bird next year.. i could see this happening.

  it used to be that you went to the the pioneer school once.

  then they allowed dubs to go every 5 years.

  Prologos: this is only true for a generic theory (there is a multiverse) however a true theory with many implications can be verified
