Bad timing
by Saltheart Foamfollower ini haven't seen this mentioned anywhere yet.
in view of the cutbacks being announced, this weekends watchtower study is staggeringly badly timed - it's about how kingdom halls should be viewed, financed and maintained.
a footnote even mentions that the same principles apply to "assembly halls and other facilities that are used for pure worship".

The Watchtower - getting the science wrong for 100 years (at least)
by Saltheart Foamfollower indid anyone else spot this on the back page of the feb study watchtower (just finished it today).
there is a proud display of clips from the photo drama and they have selected one showing a "gigantosaurus - 160ft long- the largest animal known".
from what i've researched, no such dinosaur existed (though in 1914 they may have thought otherwise) most people know that the blue whale is the largest animal that has ever existed, so the question is; why did they choose this clip?

Read the bible daily
by Saltheart Foamfollower ini've just had a circuit visit which surprised me because there was no mention of money or any of the other subjects which seem to have cropped up for others recently.
he did say that we need to read the bible daily so i have decided to do just that.
however, having heard about it on the jwpodcast, i'm reading the skeptic's annotated bible daily which i think will benefit me more than reading the nwt.

KIngdom Hall & Assembly Hall fund - anyone claimed from it?
by Saltheart Foamfollower inthe fund has been in operation for 2 or 3 months now, so i wondered if anyone has heard of any congregations that have tried or succeeded in making claims or getting funding for projects.
or, as we all suspect, is it like the kh assistance arrangement where if you try to make a claim you are "encouraged" to raise the funds locally.. .
