    Just got a glance at wifey's latest two Kingdom Ministry letters she left lying around. I see now that the boys in Brooklyn/Patterson have now decided ``one size fits all" is the best way to go when erecting future Assembly Halls; they've standardized the look. A cost-saving ploy no doubt.

    Oh, and in the February '04 KM, it's Jehovah 32 -Jesus 4 (frequency of mentions in the text).

    Which means the odds are 8-1 they're wrong about that, too.

    You mean they're all built the same, right? I'm not sure what this standardized look is, but where I live, they have a Three-Kingdom Hall-In-One building with moving walls so it converts into an Assembly hall.

    Nos: I heard about that place...That actually sounds creative and cost saving.

    But, not cookie cutter....you can't be creative in the org.

    soon all the halls will be the same and all the people --littel robots -- we are borg - resistance is futile --your life as you have known it is ended - we are all borg drones

    They have been moving towards this for a long time...look at any recent Kingdom Hall and there might be slight differences but most of the major architectural designs are the same. So utilitarian & ugly IMO...plus, not enough windows (what is up with that?).

    Great! The next thing will be a contract with a uniform company so that all Jw's will wear the same clothes. Then they will have symbols on the sleeves representing your title.

    If it's like this now, you know they imagine a "cookie-cutter paradise." Just look at the pictures in the magazines. I can imagaine them burning every work of art back to the dawn of man.
