  this notice is not official yet and it should be confidential until released thru the proper channels.

  a friend of mine told me about a huge elders meeting in southern california.

  the subject was the relocation and dissolution of some congregations; it seems that this is the result of some project that has been going on for some time and is going to be implemented right now.. please let me know if this is happening all over the country?.

  i have been out of the cult for over 20 years.

  i left when the idiots changed the meaning of generation in 95 and the internet came to life giving me the links to see just what a mind numb bunch i was with.

  i now live in a populated area where there is a hall about half a mile away.

  The tabernacle had previously been the church of Henry Ward Beecher. It is interesting that j f Rutherford's name is absent completely from the list of elders and deacons.

  I think it's great to see a post from a Japanese poster, but with the linked website all in Japanese and the photos unidentified, I'm not convinced.

  What is the Education Level of the Governing Body members?

  i would love to compile a list of the education obtained by the governing body members both past and present.

  can anyone provide any information to get me started?.

  it still amazes me they think they can translate ancient languages with an 8th grade education.

  Fred Franz had some college, but I'm not sure he finished his degree. Even if he didn't, it would be fair to say that he had the equivalent. despite that, I don't believe the WT has ever had a person qualified for original language translation of the Bible.

  i'd love to see you're favorite wt illustrations/photo's that they think are fine to print - but are actually kind of creepy/wierd.. .

  I always thought the one on the bible story showing pharaoh s army, the look of casual disinterest on the father and daughter was inappropriate

  Found Another Medieval Coin This Evening

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. physical

  i got in an hour metal detecting this evening and found this almost immediately.. it is a silver penny of henry ii minted in london by "davi" between 1180 and 1189. this adds a king i didn't have in my collection.

  i now have the series of henry ii - john - henry iii - edward i - edward ii - edward iii.. i now need richard the lionheart to fill in the gap.

  he was the brother of john and reigned after the death of henry ii.

  Jehovah`s Witnesses Boasted They have No Clergy Laity Class ?

  by smiddy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well that`s what was impressed on me to differentiate between the true religion and false religion , when i was converted in 1960 , do they still claim that ?

  believing that they still do , i will say this.. what about ,:the governing body who definitely are set apart from the rank and file for their attitude towards the r&f , but also from the attitude of the r&f towards the governing body members.many do seem to idolise gb members by their actions , and the gb members dont seem to discourage that.. and not only for their attitude , how about their life-style , being housed in bethel with all the mod -cons of modern civilization as opposed to a r&f member living in a third world country .does the wt society do anything to make their lifestyle improve ?

  { did jesus have a place to rest his head ?

  Along these lines, when I was growing up, there was a congregation 'servant' and circuit 'servant'. At least in name they were there to humbly serve. But now they are 'overseers' . The name itself tells you something.
