H20 Never Knew what Hit Them
by HAL infirst off, we want to thank everyone who emailed us in response to our last post.
yes, your concerns are being addressed, and what went on at the annual meeting was only the first step.. h2o and many similar sites were thrown in disarray as they were forced to admit that they were blindsided by the reorganization announcement.. so much for their claims of higher ups in the reform movement, funneling them inside information.
the truth is that reform consists of isolated embittered individuals with an ax to grind.

Feeling sorry...
by TR in...for the average jw as i see them out in door to door work.
i shake my head and think; they just don't know.

GB, Education, Jack-ass, Witnet?
by Pathofthorns invery interesting comments in this thread at witnet.
the original poster suggests how it was perceived by some to be shocking that dan sydlik (gb member) used the word "jack-ass" in a talk.. but as pointed out by bodhissatva in the following post, that it was who dan sydlik referred to as "jack-asses" that was the sad thing.. brother sydlik was saying that bethel especially needs people with skills, certifications, and qualifications.
to make this point, he said (in his characteristic booming voice), "of course, any jackass can swing a hammer.".
