  Watchtower in local newspaper

  forgive me if this has been posted already but this was in my local paper today.. http://m.recordonline.com/article/20150307/news/150309486/0/wap&template=wapart.

  if you have time to read, this is an interesting article talking about watchtowers property in ulster and orange county ny and how much the properties are worth.

  it also goes on to show how the tax exempt stays is hurting the communities..

  I remember when the WT announced the expansion at Wallkill and that a ton of stuff would be leaving Brooklyn, the local response was "Good riddance." lol

  over the years, i've come to notice that some of the friends will not touch the plate with the bread or the cup of wine ,when the emblems are being passed around.

  i remember a row of 3 people told the brother to skip over them.

  every year i have noticed this behavior.

  [i have some posting problems from my computerreply portion gets hung, hence giving it here].

  when i posted the cancer healingusing emotions, it is given as just a link with no recommendation, nor with any comments from me.

  it is not presented as a sure cure for the cancer-patient.

  in the february jw broadcasting they show anthony morris the iii out witnessing with his wife during a convention.

  she is wearing the convention badge and also a badge with sophia & caleb on it.

  i find it very amusing and she is not even a grandmother even though they like to portray am as a grandfather.. here's what their 1990 w 12/1 says about movie stars.

  I can confirm that GB go out in field service. When I was there one of my friends drove some of the older members around out in service. On saturday mornings i'd see them heading in/out of the KH in 124 with mags and stuff.

  as for Morris' wife in laundry, it was when she was in the service department so she wouldn't have been given that cushy job. even then depending on her age it could have been a 'part time job'

  Hot topic in congregations: having a beard/goatee

  by nevaagain in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am starting this topic because i was wondering, i see many who leave "the truth" are glad because they can finally have a beard.

  is having a beard really a no go in congregations?

  how is / was it in your congregation?.

  Official policy is a brother cannot have privileges if they have a beard. some congregations might be lax and some exceptions are made but it's rare. I have seen that in NYC black brothers could have a soul patch but that's it.

  fun facial hair fact: Go through all WT publications since 1980 or so (since they started using photos and not paintings). Try to find a white dude with ANY facial hair. You won't. You will find plenty of black and hispanics with mustaches but never a white guy. So if you're one of those JWs that uses those pictures as examples of proper dress and grooming, you're supposed to pick up on the fact the society doesn't want white dudes with facial hair.

  that makes zero sense. it's not like they'll even know who the pioneers are anyway.

  not to mention they haven't even decided if they'll be doing day and date digital releases

  nope. never. being an accredited college will invite tons of scrutiny and they'll have to open some of their books.
