The writing process at WT begins with researching and reading what has already been written in the past about the subject. Makes some changes, add some new stats and stories and poof! New light!

Do COs have a cushy life?

by A question in

jw

do cos (and dos) have a cushy life in comparison with other jws, or others in fulltime service?.

it could be said that they do, since they have an apartment provided for them, meals out, green handshakes, and invites to social gatherings.

it could also be said that they do not, since they may have to live in a different house every week, accept whatever food they're given, and they have a lot more meetings than the average jw.. .

Cushy until the free ride runs out...

an anonymous email to my jw contacts with this all by itself.... subject line: can't wait for the special talk tomorrow!.

There On Memorial Night When One of the Governing Body Was Attending?

by Broken Promises in

.

just wondering if anyone ever actually saw any of the gb members partaking of the emblems?.

MrDarkKnight

Yes I did. Back in the late 1980s I attended the Memorial in Brooklyn Heights...several of the GB 1.0 were there. They are all gone now.

Emblem stupidity, and the bizarre dance of the confused memorial-taker

by cedars in

well, i went along to the memorial with mrs cedars.

it was my first since my "awakening" just less than a year ago.

apparently i made a lot of people happy by being there (even if it was only building up false hopes), the most important of which were my family.

KM Sermon for April, "We are providing a Public Service"

by Quarterback in

just thought about the suggested sermon for the april magazines in the km.

it suggests that jw say that they are doing a public service.. a public service, is a service that is rendered by the government.

doesn't that writing commitee know the meaning of such words.. i wonder if they are trying to mislead by using this wording, or, they just don't get it..

MrDarkKnight

This wording has been used in the past. They are trying to diffuse objections by intimating that their work is just like all other good works...it is bulldickey...
