TTATT acronym
by RayPublisher ini think it's about time this get updated so more folks know the other meaning of t.t.a.t.t.
ttatt is an acronym for "the thing around the thing.".
this term, first known to be used by neal thomison around 1998, refers to the meta issues which surround the topic in question.. in designing software, creating art or negotiating contracts often the context and implications of the topic on the history and interrelationships at play is often as significant, if not more significant, that the content of the topic itself.. .

Field Service Requirements
by DATA-DOG inhas there ever been any official letters stating the amount of field service required to be considered exemplary?
usually the number given is 10hrs, but if you look up " 10 hours " in the cd-library you get 14 hits.
none from the bible of course, and only 3-5 are related to field service.

Service meeting topic: Masturbation
by perfect1 inone of my strangest memories of going to the kh was when a young- maybe 18-20, pimply young man got up to talk about jhvhs view of masturbation during a service meeting.. of course, it was impossible to think about him not masturbating.
i was just hitting puberty and found the whole thing very uncomfortable- i think my dad was even critiquing him (what is that called when elder gives the feedback).
looking back now i can see that to publicly condemn masturbation, especially when a young man is delivering this admonition, is- well- hilarious.

Did you know some witnesses who wanted to an Elder or M.S for the fame?

they strive to be "circuit superstars" ; instead of careing for the flock .

Hypothetical scenario.
by Inisc ini was just thinking, that the wt firmly believes in demons and demon attacks.. so, what would the elders do if an unmarried sister became pregnant and told the elders that a demon attacked her and got her pregnant?.
i mean, mary got knocked up by some magic sperm so it's not too much of a stretch!.
(ok so i know this is beyond stupid but just throwing it out there).
