All Watchtower really needs each day is five loaves of bread and two fishes. This is enough to feed 5000 people. The governing body says the prayer, breaks bread, and partakes of the meal. The crumbs are then put into baskets to feed the multitude.

Watch Tower Farms ?
by Lostandfound inmay have missed this somewhere, but if bethel not providing meals anymore , what is point of the farms?.
or are meals still provided with simple self service now, without the waiter service of decades?.
seem to recall uk farm disposed of years ago as it cheaper to purchase requirements rather than sustain farm and its workers, was that the case?.

"The G.B. is neither inspired nor infallible"
by smiddy inthat admission in the feb.17 ,study edition of the watchtower , " who is leading gods people today ?
" "the governing body is neither inspired, nor infallible, therefore it (they/we) can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction .".
have the many jehovahs witnesses past and present who have lost their lives by refusing blood transfusions due to the prohibition on blood tranfusions by jehovahs witnesses really got the sense of this statement ?.

A Jehovah's Witness would be disfellowshipped for uttering this statement to a body of elders during a judicial committee:
Body of Elders: "Do you believe the faithful and discreet slave are God's representatives on Earth?"
Reply: "The Governing Body is neither inspired, nor infallible, therefore it can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction ."
Body of Elders: "The decision of the body of elders is to recommend that you be dissfelowshipped for apostasy."

You might find the following Watchtower website selling construction equipment, tools, buses, fleet of 46 Mercedes, and building material of interest:

Current inventory includes 5,258 unique items and 28,280 tools.

HELP needed from folks in UK, esp. in Scotland!
by WTS Archive intl;dr: if you live either in scotland or in other parts of uk and you don't mind traveling, you might be able to help a fellow ex-jw by being present during a courtcase where she alone has to face more than two dozens of jws who have ruined their business.
please contact me directly for details on when and where the court case will be held (i will know these details in few days probably).

A recording of the rape of a minor in the possession of a body of elders. Sounds like criminal charges should be laid against the elders for possessing child exploitation material. If a copy was sent to Watchtower then they should be charged as well.

You cannot even get to the end of the first page of the Bible without glaring contradictions which completely disprove that God is the author of the Bible. These contradictions can be established as fact today by our understanding of science and nature.
Genesis 1:14-19 clearly states that God made the stars, the sun and the moon on the fourth day.
Genesis 1:9-13 clearly states that God brought forth vegetation and trees on the third day.
Genesis 1:3-5 alludes to God creating light and darkness on the first day but this does does not refer to the stars nor the sun or the moon as these are clearly referred to on the fourth day.
Therefore vegetation and trees existed on Earth before both the sun and moon were created which is not possible.

Genesis
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.+
2 Now the earth was formless and desolate,* and there was darkness upon the surface of the watery deep,*+ and God’s active force*+ was moving about over the surface of the waters.+
3 And God said: “Let there be light.” Then there was light.+ 4 After that God saw that the light was good, and God began to divide the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, but the darkness he called Night.+ And there was evening and there was morning, a first day.
6 Then God said: “Let there be an expanse+ between the waters, and let there be a division between the waters and the waters.”+ 7 Then God went on to make the expanse and divided the waters beneath the expanse from the waters above the expanse.+ And it was so. 8 God called the expanse Heaven.*And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 Then God said: “Let the waters under the heavens be collected together into one place, and let the dry land appear.”+ And it was so. 10 God called the dry land Earth,+ but the collecting of the waters, he called Seas.+ And God saw that it was good.+ 11 Then God said: “Let the earth cause grass to sprout, seed-bearing plants and fruit trees according to their kinds, yielding fruit along with seed on the earth.” And it was so. 12 And the earth began to produce grass, seed-bearing plants+ and trees yielding fruit along with seed, according to their kinds. Then God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14 Then God said: “Let there be luminaries*+ in the expanse of the heavens to make a division between the day and the night,+ and they will serve as signs for seasons and for days and years.+ 15 They will serve as luminaries in the expanse of the heavens to shine upon the earth.” And it was so. 16 And God went on to make the two great luminaries, the greater luminary for dominating the day+ and the lesser luminary for dominating the night, and also the stars.+17 Thus God put them in the expanse of the heavens to shine upon the earth18 and to dominate by day and by night and to make a division between the light and the darkness.+ Then God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

JW Carts Cause Thousands to Start Studying!!!
by Drifting Away ini would love to know the stats of how many hours were spent, standing by a cart, or sitting at a local town fair with jw table tent set up, compared to the number of bible studies started that led to baptism since the inception of the carts.
anyone have any idea?
if i had to guess i would say thousands of hours pent standing by a cart, and maybe less then 5 that actually got baptized.

There's an xjw in Australia who everytime he sees a JW trolley cart goes up and an introduces himself as a newly baptized brother who got "The Truth" as a result of trolley preaching. After the excitement and hugs he tells them that what made him curious is that they were always silently standing by the trolley cart waiting. He explains that this is what helped him to realize they had "The Truth" and he was won over without a word just like the Bible said would happen. He tells them that had they approached him or made contact with him he would have ignored them and passed on.
The lesson he teaches all JW trolley preachers is:
1. Do not initiate conversations
2. Do not make eye contact
3. Stand away from the trolley cart
4. Let the angels, who ultimately have the commission to preach, draw like minded ones to the "waters of truth"
5. Do not offer any literature (books or magazines) but rather let the passerby raise the subject
6. It is more effective than door knocking
Net result: Zero conversion rate but more mindless JW Watchtower zombies standing still, talking to no one, making no placements, waiting for the end of the world while sipping from a coffee cup in their hand.
