Question from Reader Watch Tower:fertilized eggs (embryos)
by frankiespeakin inbefore coming to a knowledge of the truth, my wife and i submitted to in vitro fertilization because of our desire to have a baby.
not all our fertilized eggs (embryos) were used; some were frozen and stored.
must they be retained, or may they be disposed of?http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20121215/view-of-in-vitro-fertilization/.

Secret Watchtower Letter: PARENTS HAVE MAIN RESPONSIBILITY FOR CHILD'S SAFETY
by steve2 inin a separate thread, cedar's response to the watchtower's hot-off-the-secret-press-to-elders letter on child abuse is featured.
cedar's article is a powerful, well-composed overview of that letter.. tellingly, in the watchtower letter you will not find any direct exhortation requiring parents to first go to the elders when their child discloses sex abuse.
no, the watchtower is much too clever to directly state what parents should or should not do.

When Are Rude Gestures And Warrior Wizards Acceptable For Jehovah's Witnesses?
by DT inthe watchtower society has been doing a lot of touching of the "unclean thing" lately.
for example, in an effort to warn their members about warriors, wizards and warrior wizards (just in case someone decided to mix the two types of abomination), they made a video about a child playing with a warrior wizard to show why it is wrong to play with warrior wizards or watch videos that contain them.. now they have made videos for the deaf that warn of the dangers of masturbation (and even oral and anal sex) by graphically and enthusiastically stimulating (i guess that should be simulating) the very acts that they are condemning.. is it any wonder that the watchtower society is being accused of sending mixed signals?.
normally, graphically simulating sexual acts would get a witness in trouble.

The Decline of Elders and Ministerial Servants
by Londo111 ini seem to remember somebody saying that since the 90's the number of elders has declined from 90000 to 60000. does anybody have any hard figures regarding this?.
the organization is desperate for "qualified" men.
but their standards are much too high, especially the monthly field service hour requirements tagged on to endless meetings and congregational busywork.
