    Mitch found the latest issues of the magazines stuck to our door yesterday.

    Its the first time I've seen them in quite a while.

    Wow! they are so much smaller and thinner than they used to be. More
    like the old pamphlets that we charged a nickel for. It was really
    weird to see them look so different.

    Are they having to cut back on expenses that much. I don't believe that
    with the billions they have in real estate. I think they are hoarding
    more money than ever.

    The new small mags are not impressive. But then, do people get information
    from print magazines anymore? I only read magazines in airports or on
    airplanes.

    Don't most people get their information from the net and from TV today?

    The paper is so thin, when I scan them, I get both sides at once!

    Plays havoc with the OCR software.

    Just the same old story though, 'The End is Nigh', (well nearly)

    In the February issue of Watchtower on page 13 it states that "More important, though, praying in Jesus' name glorifys Jehovah, the one who gave his son for our benefit-John 3:16."

    Now compare that to what a REAL bible states."For God so loved the world, that He gave His own begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."

    Now I may not be an english scholar, but these Religious scholars have changed the entire meaning of 16.

    What my bible version states is that you have to accept Jesus to arrive in the Kingdom. Pretty simple.

    Their version. You have to bring joy to some real estate Org, to get some sort of benefit? This is so badly manipulated that even a school child can see the false worship.

    Yes the mag is looking physically thin. But it is spiritually rice paper thin with this blasphemy (polite way to say bulls...).

    I haven't seen one since 2006. But, if they are that thin, I wonder how it will do in my shredder. Or, perhaps I will just have to start having a pail of water to soak the damn things in and dump them when they become soaking wet and start falling apart on their own accord.
