Makes me wonder if there was some sort of lawsuit? A harrassment lawsuit to the Headquarters?

Anyway, even a 'non-JW' could get a magazine left at their door or laundramat, fill out the form as a prank for someone they don't like. (Hmmmm)

Does this mean that I should stop submitting random names and addresses to their "I'd like a free home Bible study" link?

Naw, Billy, remember the Angels are directing the work (Revelation 14:6). No doubt they are selecting the keys you type! It's not even you doing it!!!

Hahaha filling out request slips for a home visit for those already witnesses.......love it! making my brain tick a bit wondering if I could get into some trouble very soon *cackles*

Maybe this is new light: if someone doesn't invite you first, don't go to their door!

I just had that thought todayas I was running errands. It just popped into my head that we should all start to fill out those pesky little slips and bombard Bethel with them. I think I got the idea as I was driving by our public library as they have internet's you can use. It would be very hard to track where this is all coming from. My only problem is I would not know who's name to put on the slip. I would never do that to one of my worldly friends and it would not do any good to put a JW down.

It just really irked me that they would dare to print that in the KM. I have been to so many peoples doors where they have gotten so upset with me yelling, etc because we are bugging the hell out of them. I have had people tell me how many time do I have to tell you stupid JW's that I am not interested!

Yet the branch cannot handle it. Oh please.

I know I will not do the fake slips but it made me happy thinking of it.

I know my brother went to a home of supposedly someone that filled out a Bible study request form. Here it was his friend playing a joke on him. So,non-Witnesses are sending in fake forms,lol.

What the writing department really wanted to put in the kingdom ministry:

Dear brothers and sisters. Please do not use the coupons in literature or on the internet to get literature and visits made to your relatives or loved ones in various detention centres.

We do not like having people ring us up and abuse us for harrasing them.

That is what you publishers are for. You are the army of Jehovah, we are the strategy generals. You are meant to take the arrows and bullets not us. In future we would appreciate you sending literature at your own expense, we mean, donation, rather than us having to send free stuff. Why not call on these people yourselves and see how you like getting abused...we realize you do already in the door to door work, so you should be used to it by now. We are office people, have a heart.

Your loving servants in control

Put down the addresses of bikers clubhouses, police stations, bars and clubs, whatever strikes you as entertaining..

Band on the Run

I would definitely not be so irritated by an email or magazine in the mail that I can just immediately delete or throw in the trashbin than a person at my door. Bethel should have much more experience in behaving as regular publishers. They feel so entitled to different treatment.
