New books released during last year's convention season. Does it seem strange to anyone else that a "pacisfist" organisation should use a photo sourced from the US Navy as the cover of one of their books? Has anyone obtained these books? If so, what are the highlights, both good and bad, in your opinion?
Has Anyone Seen These Books?

"Youths- what will you do with your life?" "designed to help young & 'witless' make right decisions regarding their future??"
Translation: We want you to stay away from university, colleges and anywhere else you may try to gain knowledge. We want you to stay 'witless' forever!!!
Such rags!

It was pretty obvious to me, too, on reading that blurb that tertiary education was low on the "to do list" for Jehovah's faithful youth...
Anyone got the brochure?

Stephanus...
no I don't have the brochures...am just familiar with the mentality
As well, I am in university now 10 yrs after the time I should have been starting...now that I am no longer 'witless' I can learn new things! LOL

Both books and the brochure are at my house. When my parents came home from the convention they felt compelled to give me a copy of all three....in the words of eyegirl, "weeeee!"
