    The literature servant told me that their instructions are to only give one study WT per publisher starting with the January 1st, 2008 issue. Under no circumstances are they to provide any other copies (if lost or whatever, much like KMs are provided now).

    He-heh-heh......come and get my copy of it. Retards.

Any guests attending the WT study will be provided a copy, but then the servant who gave them the copy must confiscate it after the meeting. It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out in real life.

    The cult/sect is showing more of its true colors.

    All publishers should be subscribers to the WT and Awake - that is supposed to be their study copy. Jehovah is watching the web **play eerie music in the background**

    As far as confiscating WT study issues after the meeting is over- they have been doing that for some time. I recall that being a regular thing at our hall. They kept issues on hand for those that always come without a WT.

    Notice to all that don't think this is actually happening. It might not be happening in your hall, but there are halls where the hounders that are handling this could have decided to confiscate the Kool-Aids from visitors in that hall without its being organization wide. Or, the hounder-hounder could have "suggested" it to the hounders in his circuit. Most people within that circuit will then think it is from the Society because all the nearby congregations are doing the same. But, outside the circuit, it might not be happening.

    Or, perhaps there was a directive from the Society to reclaim the Kool-Aids from visitors and not all the hounders are taking this directive seriously. This could actually happen if the hounders in one congregation or several contiguous congregations feel that it would be a lousy idea to reclaim Kool-Aids from visitors despite directive to do so. Either way, it is not uniformly enforced. Nor do I expect it to be until all the hounder-hounder-hounders in the country are informed to strictly either take them back or to not take them back, and then it gets through all the hounder-hounders and then all the congregations. This could take quite some time to filter all the way down. But, then we know how inefficient and ineffective that organization really is.

    The letter to the congregations specifically said that any non-witness who requests a copy of the WT Study edition will be provided a copy. It may be happening, but that's not the procedure. Speak to the PO and tell him what the letter said. The letter was read to the congregation and posted on the information board. If you don't get him to budge; wait for the CO or write to the society. They are not following the instructions. There is no directive from the society to conceal the magazine.

    This should be fun... next thing, the KM will announce --

    "Attendants will collect ALL magazines after the last paragraph, and before the final prayer. Attendants will be armed with tazers to address those stealing the magazines. Attendants are expected to purchase their own tazer. No Society funds will be used for these mandatory devices."

    "Give me that magazine back, or I'll fry your central nervous system!"

    If they start checking, you simply fake an emergency about 2/3 into the study and run out the door before they have a chance to take the Kool Aid away from you. They could start locking doors to prevent that, but one call to the fire department to report a serious fire code violation will take care of that problem and create some embarrassment for them. And, in the confusion, you can sneak the Kool-Aid out anyway.

    a little mellow dramatic dont ya think? I wonder where some people come up with stuff like this... i mean really...
