Fathful Slave Class...Commisssioned????
by integ ini heard in a talk recently that the faithful slave class was "commissioned" by jehovah to give us our food at the proper time.
my question is; where does it say that in the bible?
i am aware of the obscure reference to this "class" in matthew, but is there anywhere in the bible that actually says they were/are commissioned?

WHY NO MEDIA REPORTS ABOUT JW CHILD ABUSE SETTLEMENTS???
by integ inbig news that the catholic arch diocese in california has settled a lawsuit of over 600 million dollars to victims of abuse.. shouldn't the media be telling the story of the recent watchtower settlement???.
there should be an investigative story on this i would think.. the witnesses always talk about being persecuted, yet they are getting a free pass on this and this is pretty big.

Public Talk 6/8/03....Mercy
by integ inthe public talk today was on mercy.
at first glance you think "oh, just another rehash of old stuff we already have heard, just general, sanitized stuff".

Disfellowshipping vs.Going mainstream
by integ inhi friends,.
i was thinking that the wts was headed toward a more "mainstream" platform for a while with the loosening up of the "college thing" and what it seemed were a switching over of what were once df'ing offenses to now becoming "conscience" matters..blood, voting, etc.
(although the wt literature says they are "conscience' matters we all know what the real deal is) anyway, i had thought that maybe the society was going to try to soften public perception to them.

Let's Infiltrate....
by integ inas i eagerly anticipate and pray for the demise of the org, i am thinking about different ways this could possibly be accomplished...one way would be from within.
i know this sounds crazy but what if some of the bethel "heavies" actually turned against the org, or are already subletly trying to bring it down from the inside.
i know this is but a dream, but it's not entirely impossible...it seems like that would be one of the only ways to expedite the process..you would start seeing veiled, insidious, anti-org "suggestions" in the mags, books, etc.

Subtle Protests.........
by integ ini continue in my fade to make those little subtle protests when around the witnesses....you know what i mean?
doing the kind of things that have nothing to do with violating "bible standards", but are none the less frowned upon by the self righteous of dubdum.
my latest was when attending a wedding reception the other night.
