here's a conversation i just had with my relative a few minutes ago i'll let you decide.. relative : would you like to read your grandfather the days txt (she passes joe the phone).
joe : sure.
(then proceed to read it to my grandfather and explain it).. after discussing the points joe says to relative.. hey what's the story arnt they printing books any more.. relative : no they arnt necessary any more.. joe : really why is that.. relative : it's all on line.
Joe : Boy that a big change from what I remember. I gave a bible reading once where I read it from a computer print out, and i very clearly remember been counsel from the Plat form not to do it.
Relative : no its never been like that.

for years the rumor persisted that Fred Franz went to Oxford under the Rhodes plan, but someone, perhaps Bill Cetnar (?), called the WTS on the carpet by writing the Rhodes people for verification. They checked their records and found no such thing. Then the investigator began publishing the truth about the matter, so Franz had to "correct" the rumor and say that he was offered the scholarship..
It`s worse than that..
Franz along with others was invited to take a competitive exam..
To win the prize of the Cecil Rhodes Scholarship..
Franz never took the exam..
...........................................
This is the only offer Franz ever got..
You and Me Freddie!

so, i guess an upcoming wt has some new light on clapping!
evidently, jesus has misinformed the gb/wtbts since the late 90's.
clapping was disrespectful, because jesus felt that those who were df'd should not be given a pat on the back.
WT has some new light on clapping!
those with substantial experience as jws will likely agree that judicial matters are handled with considerable inconsistency.
elders certainly vary in skill level, understanding, compassion or even knowledge of the talmudlike watchtower rules.
the punishment and, it is actually punishment, for similar offenses can result in anything from private or public reproof to disfellowshipping or sometimes an elder will choose to simply offer private counsel without even bringing the matter before the body of elders.
No commenting and no talks but
you can door to door and represent yourself as a JW.....Blondie
Can I Interest You In a WatchTower Magazine?..
Would You Like To Become a JW??!!..
first at all, there is a new marketing video of god's name, clearly saying the name of god is jehovah.. link: https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodbible/docid-502014331_1_video.
and then, there is the video with geoffrey jackson (gb) clearly saying that the original name of god is not known and the use of jehovah is because of it is the most used variant in english.. link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwv_8ocvkj8.
so, something contradicts here, isn't it?.
If the name of God is not know, why than all the GB hammering to use it.
It`s Branding..Jehovah is the WBT$ Brand..
They already sell real Estate..
The WBT$ could use the name to sell Beer!
Was that a "Jehovah Beer" Beer Burp?!..
i'm new here; one of my relatives was a member on this forum a few years ago and told me about it.
anyways, as a sister who has been in the org since childhood and now in her late 40's (plus as a woman of color), i have noticed that a number of brothers have an ageist attitude.
they are very accepting of young women under 26 and rejecting women over that age, particularly those in their 30's and over.. is this an unspoken mindset from wthq (specifically from bethel), or is it that quite a number of males (sorry, i'm not sexist here) have this type of mentality?
That's much better OUTLAW.
Now can you give her some hips and some muscle mass so she can carry those girls tall and proud!.....sparrowdown

Sorry OUTLAW but if that is Sister "Olive Oil" dancing for those brothers she is too old and her boobs aren't big enough!.....sparrowdown

This means that an attractive young woman may be prepared to settle for someone who they would under normal circumstances reject as not their type because there is fear that if they don't marry quickly they may never get another offer.....nugget
this weeks book study lesson was on martha, the sister of lazarus.
the chapter in the "imitate their faith" book praised her for being "industrious".. the conductor at our congregation meeting was just positively gushing about how "industrious" modern-day jw women are.. he was so exciting, he could barely get the words out.
following is not an exact quote, but conveys the gist:.
Why, they just had a meeting with our elders, and they recommended putting sisters in charge of organizing our Kingdom Hall's closets! Boy, if you want an organized closet, just get a sister involved!"
That`s a Real Knee Slapper!..
now the majority of people nowadays do no go by the hope of old times.
now the reason for this is important and goes beyond mere words.
our culture sees ethics especially national or civil politics as the rules and standards by which we guide ourselves.
Outlaw go ask your imaginary professor, who spend his leisure time criticising my writing, about the difference between a "blue background" and a "blue back round".....cofty
