Reminded me of the mafia cappo that was studying. Field service was a series of offers people couldn't refuse.

Hells Angel dub
by Farkel ina hells angel studied with the dubs and progressed until he was ready for field service.
the local elder decided to accompany him on his first trip in the field.
the hells angels wannabe dub had bought a suit, white shirt and tie and when he put it on, it covered up all his body ink except that on his neck and the swastikas and skull and crossbones all over his face, and on his hands and wrists.. they go to the first door and the householder says, "yes?

The ten best ways to disrupt a District Assembly:
by czarofmischief in1. have an apostate food truck outside with free burritos and shasta cola.. 2. wear a smurf costume and run across the stage.. 3. bikini car wash across the street.. 4. have an old-school breakdancing session on the corner, cardboard and all.
bonus if you do it on a mat made of watchtowers and primary colored book covers.. 5. have a garage sale or flea market in the neighborhood during the afternoon session.. 6. sit in the audience and applaud everything that anybody says - try to get a standing ovation for each sentence of the closing prayer.. 7. put a recording of rap, heavy metal, or other forbidden music on instead of the kingdom melodies.. 8. get fifty of your friends to walk around in the stadium during the session, holding signs that say, "louder please!
" and "take your shirt off!

Volunteer to translate real time only your translation is old light.
Laser pointers are a hoot, easily hidden. One could be sequestered in the spine of a bible and used to distract the speaker, especially in a stadium setting where the audience is at a higher elevation to the speaker.

Ten Years From Now .......
by Phizzy inwhat with the very low baptism rate, many leaving, many waking up and staying in for now, but not "zealous" any more, the wt/jw religion/scam is without doubt moribund.. i do not foresee a sudden end to the wt but what will it look llike in ten years time ??.
the late teens/early twenty year olds of today will i think be very thin on the ground as 30 year old jw's, so my view is that in ten years time it will be mainly old hardcore ones ,50 yr old and up, and even they will be aware that the org.
is dying..

The ones with access to the funds will be in the process of siphoning off their share before they disappear off the radar.
This will be triggered by investigations into the shell corporations to find where the assets have been hidden to avoid having to honor the judgements against the organization, taxes due after their tax exempt status has been revoked.
Their control of information will be gone decreasing their retention and conversion rates, the blood and shunning policies will be eased but it will be too little too late as the decline accelerates. The communication technologies the Watchtower were slow adopt will allow the younger and born-ins to compare thoughts and notes unmonitored. This exchange of information will allow an organized resistance among the members, either forcing change or a spiral toward extinction. The enforced abstination from higher education will provide easier to control members but reduced donations.
The scandal from the disappearance of funds will cause the collapse of both the central printing operations and central control, will result in schisms in each geographic areas where the remaining adherents will have commonalities and the local leaders will have less insulation from the remaining members, but absolute unity will be a memory.
