Ray Franz wrote in ISOCF p.195/6
by fadinfast inray franz wrote in isocf p.195/6 with all his usual astute observation.
"heavy loads"-why heavy?.
jesus said of the religious leaders of his day, "they tie up heavy loads and put them on men's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.

Sheep and goats info needed!
by fadinfast inan elderly lady/sister came to visit my wife the other day, she wasn't here so she got me instead.
this sister [late 70s early 80s] is a born in, has a husband who was an elder for many years, but is very sick now, also a daughter who was horribly [wrongfully] d/f, even by their rules, and a granddaughter in a simular situation.. at the close of our 'little chat' she was saying, "where can i flee to".
i told her that my wife and i had heeded the 'organizations own advice 'if you find your religion is lying, cheating or being deceitful or has bloodguilt, then flee from that religion'.

What attention needs to be given to the equipment we use in the witness work? KM 95/3 question box
by fadinfast in1 although having an appropriate scriptural presentation in mind, a publisher of the good news might be unprepared when it comes to the equipment he uses.
when at the door, he may not have the current literature offer.
[ make sure you buy your obligatory mags before you leave the kingdom hall] the magazines, brochures, and tracts in his witnessing case may be wrinkled or tattered.

Idiocy wins over rationale! I am mad as a hatter
by cyberjesus insorry i needed a place to vent.
i am just flaming to see idiocy in action and how emotions, suppositions, assumptions and conclussions without evidence will not control someones head, and thoughts if you can call it that.. i am usually very patient (thanks to my fing jw background) and i try to use rationale all the time.
but sometimes there is someone who would just refuse to think.

by fadinfast in[to be familiar with the characters of this story you really need to have read 'tales from the bush' parts 1@2 hidden deep in the bowels of jokes and humour, in case your not into a paper file chase, http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/social/humour/203865/1/tales-from-the-bush-the-real-use-for-magizines http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/social/humour/204175/1/tales-from-the-bush-part-2-the-proper-use-for-magazines.
there is a time when a mans conscience says, you just got to go, to do more, reach out, extend, make it happen.
was it hard, to make a decision, to make the effort?
