in the newest kingdom ministry publication comes the information of how they're combining the 'no blood' card and the 'health proxy' document into only one card.. the card will have pertinent information according to the region where the person lives.
publishers will only need to change this card if personal information changes, otherwise one can keep the card forever instead of the nonsense of having to fill one out at the beginning of each year.. the wtbts sure is simplifying matters as time goes by.
good!!!
I also am a notary public and mentioned that one can notarize a document signed outside the presence of the notary if acknowledged by the signer to the notary.
Are you serious? What the heck is the point of a notary if they don't actually witness you signing the document??? Most notaries I know would never notorize something under those circumstances.

if you wondered whether the society would print blood cards this year, they won't.
blood cards are out.. consider the box found on the december km, entitled "new provision to assist us to abstain from blood".
the governing body has approved combining the essential elements of the durable power of attorney (dpa) document and the advance.
Interesting development... obviously they believe there will be a legal and possibly PR upside in this change in procedure. The only downside for the org is that the blood card was becoming a de facto JW ID card, updated every year. Another control tactic, everyone has to sign in every year, reaffirming their stance as a JW...now that will no longer be the case. No Apologies
from the perspective of a uk observer it seems to me that the divide between 'the world' as it is in conservative heartlands of the us, and the mindset of the jehovah's witness is getting narrower by the day.. is there really a big difference between a jw and a majority of people in such places?
in the newspaper today i read how the new film alexander was being slated for showing alexander the great as a bisexual.
the uk independent reported that one online critic has warned christians that are considering seeing the film to "speak to your pastors immediately because satan is attempting to enter your mind".
Alexander the Great was not bisexual, he was homosexual. I've known that all my life, its commonly accepted.
Is this true? Its the first I've ever heard of it. Anyone got a reference?

a little before 5p.m., i got a call asking me how long i'd be working to.

i recognized his voice.
Way to go Min!
It's amazing how transparent they are, isn't it?

i really scored some great bargains today.
jackets for the grandkids at 50%.
i saved $100 there.. i got 12 dress socks for my husband at 50% so that was a savings of $28.. we saved 76 dollars on a rollaround tool chest!.
I have never understood how buying stuff can result in "saving" money. Its kind of like when my sister says she "won" at the casino.
I didnt buy anything yesterday, guess I didn't save any money.

religion is rarely covered in poular entertainment, so who knows?
there could be a plethora of jw characters in popular televison and movies, and we don't even know it!.
for example, what about bill lumberg (the boss) from the movie "office space?
Butters, from South Park, shows some signs of possible JWness.

now wishful thinking is different from the facts, but in our age of technology, which is pretty new!.
how long do you think the wts got before the "truth" is out ?
( i hope its soon).
Geoff,
Where are you getting these numbers?? I find an increase of 500,000 publishers hard to believe. And exactly how many hours were spent getting those 500,000 new zombies?
I also find it interesting that you list 'hurt' as one of the reasons people leave. Thats quite commendable that you acknowledge that. My question is, when will the GB acknowledge it, and act accordingly. My guess is they never will, thus my handle, No Apologies. They have never apologized for anything, and they never will.

in the jehovah's witness church, the elders were allowed to tell other church members because everyone in the church is considered an ordained minister.
but they were not allowed to tell authorities outside the church, the court records said.
i wonder if she misunderstood?.
The church is a family, Brown said, and families don't need to be told of another member's sins. "We can't tell them, but it will be known informally," Brown said. "In a family, everyone knows of the weaknesses of Aunt Suzie or Uncle John. Things are just known."Ok there is a lot of Brown's comments in that article that make me want to puke, but this statement is just plain bizarre. the weaknesses?!?!? Aunt Suzie?? Uncle John?!?!?!

did anyone catch last nights sat.
night live?
u2 was the musical guest's and they rocked!!
Yeah I caught the show. It was rocking there at the end.
I just wish Bono would decide what he wants to be, a rock star or a political activist. Like way too many Hollywood actors, he somehow thinks we should listen to his ideas on how to make the world a better place.
Stick to the music and pimping for iTunes.
