  at our meeting last night there was a talk about having run out of magazines for the last three months.

  it's expected this will continue to happen.

  the "branch" has not sent the requested number of magazines.

  I know of a case, 30 plus years ago. The congo had run up a tab, and the brothers who usually pay it off (for everybody) decided to 'lovingly' allow the others to pitch in. So they waited. When the Circuit Overseer visited, he got mad, because having a congo in his circuit with a running late tab, made him look bad.

  Sorry, I don't remember who paid it off, but it was shortly after that, the Circuit Overseer decided to close that KHall and build a new one, a 45 minute (bad winter road) away from the perfectly good (paid off) KHall on a good road and convenient to most everyone. That CO, then removed the main Elders for asking why they were closing down a perfectly good, and happy, KHall to build a new one, that was not easy for most to get to.

  Aw. The loving ways of Holy Spit, I mean Spirit. lol

  PS I said 'spit' not the other nasty, dirty, stinky word. lol

  Have a good night from where I am and good morning to you in the UK.

  What would happen if you drop a fake check or bill in the donation box?

  what would happen if we started dropping fake check or bills inside the donation box of an assembly?

  i know, is a crime, but so is pushing someone to not accept blood and die.

  would it help skew the numbers enough if enough of us did it?.

  What if you put a fake dollar bill into the box, but put crazy glue all over one side of it? lol

  Wouldn't the crazy glue stick to some of the cash and checks and mess them up? lol

  LL Having a fun day. Hope you are having the same.

  Our hall is asking for money...

  i guess the branch isn't happy with the amount being sent each month since we are way lower than our loan amount.

  we now have to another financial survey to see the max amount that can be given.

  it is "encouraged" for all to be in attendance and give much forethought and consideration to the amount you can donate each month.

  TV Evangelics ALWAYS beg for MORE MONEY> Isn't that what JWdotOrg has turned into?

  Did Jim and Tammy Baker ever say thank you dear christian TVLand friends we now have enough money from begging all of you poor, humble, obedient and oblighing fools, so that even our little doggie has an air conditioned doggy house with your "freely given contributions". H. NO! lol lol lol

  Does the Pope in all of his silk and jeweled splendor, living in a wonderous palace, ever tell the Catholics in ANY country, thank you so much for all the billions you have "freely" given us/me. We have enough. Take care of your own families now??? Can you imagine any religion saying THAT? lol lol lol

  Jehovah's Witnesses are like any other religion. They say they have found the truth of The Written Word of God, follow us, but first, give us money. lol lol lol

  LL Having a wonderful day, in my own, girl made paradise. lol

  Newspaper article: 'Rise of ISIS and earthquakes are WARNINGS before ARMAGEDDON destroys Earth'

  the "end" of mankind, which has been long predicted by jehovah's witnesses, could happen as soon as this year - according to latest announcement from the christian religion.. in the latest edition of jehovah's witnesses monthly publication watchtower, an article translated into 700 languages - urges people to join the religion or face certain death when god sends his forces from the heavens to "remove all world leaders," "exterminate his enemies" and "rid the world of satan".. critics have lambasted the warning of a coming armageddon as yet another "failed prediction" by the religion, which has previously delivered similar alerts such as a foretold apocalypse in 1975.. indeed, jehovah's witnesses have been warning people of the need to recognise jehovah or face certain death when the "end" comes for more than 100 years.. the christian-based religion was founded in the 1870s by charles taze russell in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, us, as an offshoot from the bible studies movement.. today, there are 8.2million jehovah's witness evangelists, while 19.9 million celebrated their annual memorial festival marking christ's death - worldwide in 2014.. followers do not believe in military service and will not accept blood transfusions.. in a new eight-page article, watchtower said jehovah's witness leaders are now "convinced" humans are in their "final days" before the armageddon.. they cite an increase in global armed conflict, such as the rise of the islamic state terror group, as well as natural disasters such as volcanoes and earthquakes.. the lengthy article, written by an unnamed author, said: "will god let humans continue to dominate one another and threaten the future of mankind?

  no, as we have seen, he will step in and bring an end to centuries of misery and oppression.

  If you found out TTATT at 80 and spent your entire life at Bethel, what would you do?

  ^^^@John Aquila: That is one of the saddest things I have ever read.

  If she doesn't die suddenly of a stroke, but has a lingering death, I wonder if she will wonder, where did SHE go wrong. NOT where did the GB screw up, or the Bible go wrong. (Unfortunately she doesn't realize the writing committee along with the GB just pull ideas out of their a$$"s) lol

  Poor dear old soul. (It would not be respectful to call her a fool. I really feel for her. I drank the kool aid too).

  ----->If I was at Beth-hell, that is one tough call. I honestly don't know, but I would realize my days were numbered. If I had always wanted freedom, along with a husband, children, a home etc, the shock might kill me.

  For me personally, I would want to know. It would answer so many questions on why the GB doesn't make any sense but make singing rolly cart commercials and stupid kids cartoons. I gave up all of life's pleasures so the GB could go on JW-TV and make fools of themselves and my "the end is coming" "preach the Word, or you are blood guilty" religion?

  I would need someone to hold my hand through this. It would be brutal with stripping off the blind fold.

  Babylon the Great has fallen!" God's Kingdom rules! (1963)

  Sept 1963: I received my "Babylon the Great Has Fallen, God's Kingdom Rules" book at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena too. We studied this Bible study aid (lol and or barf, take your pick!) at our book study group the following year. LoisLane had fallen in love like wise with a worldly boy from school. He was studying and also came to Tuesday and Sunday meetings with me. I knew he didn't believe and was there just for my sake so I had to give him up. His life was so much the better for it because he went on to have a happy and successful career flying military helicopters during Viet Nam, was on a wrestling team, and married a girl who truly loved him with no hidden religious agenda with flip flopping man made up doctrines that are in one year and out the next.

  What happened to the "Babylon the Great" book that was studied so intently and never made any sense to anyone? Trashed and you are considered an apostate or trouble maker if you even refer to it.

  @cappytan ---> Thanks for the laughs! lol

  Five (5) minutes was all I could give of my life to hear that greedy religious SOB with the weird voice and weirder lips.

  If I had to listen anymore, please shoot me, bury me, dig me up, and shoot me again! lol Just to make sure I am really dead and do not have to listen to 'ol rubber lips' ever, ever again. lol

  These TV shows are made for very low IQ's. Not very nice JW.org!
