Leaked Elder's Video: How to deal with a suicidal sister

by cappytan in

this video will be played at one of the clam meetings in march 2016.. the content is kind of old news because it is a recut version of a previous video produced for the elder's school.

however, it's still significant because it shows that the organization still has dissenting brothers in positions of leadership.. my thanks to the leaker.

feel free to claim credit here.

do we have issues with the site or is it my mac or firefox?

by sowhatnow in

im on a mac-book, and when im at the site, often my mac runs real slow, im typing and the letters are not there, and pop up a few seconds later.

weird stuff.

it sometimes freezes up on me.

fastJehu

My macbook ist 6 years old and I changed the memory from 4 MB up to 8 MB an changed the HD into a SSD. It's like new and very fast. If you can't do it by yourself, ask a computershop.

Do You Remember The First Time You Looked At "Apostate" Material?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i was always fascinated by it.

as a kid, i used to go to the local library and secretly read books by so called apostates.

later, i would sneak into christian book stores and quickly buy a book or two.

fastJehu

First time I read (I had palpitations, was in browser incognito mode) about the real reasons, why the WT:

- no longer serves meals at the conventions

- no longer calls for money from the householders (publications)

- doesn't use the earnings for the sale of a KH for the new building

So I got the feeling - the WT could be all about money.

BOE Letter: Re: Magazine Requests

by pixel in

to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory .

re: magazine requests .

dear brothers: in our letter to all congregations dated october 20, 2015, regarding making wise use of printed magazines, publishers are encouraged to use good judgment to determine an individual’s interest before offering magazines.

fastJehu

The Congregation Service Committee should meet as soon as possible to discuss these adjusted arrangements. Thereafter, the service overseer should review this information with the magazine servant.

What a waste of time. Why can't the "MS" sit in the first meeting?

So the service overseer could have more time for fieldservice.

Unbeliveable.

Another Galling Meeting!

by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

yesterday's meeting was again, quite soporific.

however, i felt indignation when it came to paragraph 16 of the watchtower catechism.

it reads..."the remarkable growth that we see today is the result of our faith in god and full acceptance of the bible..."i won't deal with the first part of that sentence here, but the claim at the end - this is just an outright and most egregious lie!
