Former Long Time Elder - Judicial Committees
by James Jackson inwhen i first was appointed as an elder, i could not wait to be on a judicial committee.
it semed like most hearings invovled middle age men and women cheating on their mates because either they had married early or felt that were being neglected by their mate.
most times i felt i need to take a long hot shower after a hearing.. the toughest part was seeing these sweet young children grow up in "the truth", and now you are about to judge their future based on their repentance.

Self-made Persecution?
by Tech49 inat the recent dc, we had the 1 hour drama on sunday that focused on trusting in jehovah, no matter what events come up.
in the opening scene, we see a father watching a news broadcast on tv, and he learns that jw's have been banned, overnight.. this got me thinking, again.
almost weekly, we hear about persecution coming, soon soon soon!

AEDs: What's more important , $$ or lives? (You probably already know the WT answer. )
by Open mind inaccording to osha, approximately 1,000 americans die each day from sudden cardiac arrest.
the majority of these occur outside a hospital and survival rates in the absence of an automatic external defibrilator are very low, (1 to 5 %).. .

February 2010 Study Watchtower - Millions Now Living 'May' Never Die
by Marni Mai injust noticed that in the february 2010 study edition of the watchtower, they refer to the "millions now living will never die" talk in 1918, but they have changed the title to "millions now living may never die".
only problem, they included the picture of the invitation to the talk, which says 'will'.. ooops.
it's on page 16. enjoy.. .

Why doesn't anyone know about the UN thing?
by Comatose ini can't fathom it.
if i asked anyone in the last couple halls i've been in they wouldn't know.
it would seem to me that news like that would race around a circuit and spread like wildfire over the country.
