By the look on that guy's face self-worship that can easily degenerate into self-pleasuring.
He's probably one of those "metrosexuals."

red flag to a bull those carts can't resist !
by possum inwent to a market yesterday and there it was a cart manned by a middle-aged women and a young one.
in a really respectful, friendly manner i approached them and enquired if watchtower society had done anything about its "two witness policy" post royal commission.
knew nothing of 2 witness rule.

Questions, any questions are like cryptonite to most dubs. Many have the attitude that unless you're telling them how wonderful and encouraging their literature is, your "attacking" them.

Good for you possum.
I can imagine many brothers and sisters will not even want to man the carts if there is even the slightest chance of being asked uncomfortable questions.

Finding homes for the former 'bethelites' and 'special pioneers'
by Esse quam videri insince the liberal government has been elected in canada, it seems that people are looking to the future with a little more optimism and hope.
it is only human nature that with change, we would think that the change would be for the better.
the courts have ruled, in canada, that it is unconstitutional to deny the homeless the right to sleep in parks.

Special Pioneer Couple Living at a Kingdom Hall In Miami FL, get the dreaded Letter
by James Jack injust got a phone call from an older sister saying that a couple that got re-assigned from bethel 4 years ago to live at their kh apartment as special pioneers, just received a letter saying "as of january 2016, your special pioneer assignment will be discontinued".. they live in a south miami kh(snapper creek congregation).. this couple had only served in bethel for 15 years before they were sent out into the special pioneer work.
they are now in their mid 50's and the sister said that they have to find part time jobs to support themselves.. the older sister (does not have a pc or internet), says that the couple are just devastated!

Yes, regular worldly people lose their jobs and can't afford their rent and worse everyday. That's life.
I'm sure this demotion will be a rude awakening for these SPs, but, again, that's life.

About 'Regular' Pioneers
by Gayle innow that district overseers have been deleted, now that bethelites are being devalued and increasingly dismissed, now that special pioneers are being deleted in u.s., and maybe elsewhere gradually.
who would have ever thought?.
yet, now what is the value to be a regular pioneer to the org?

Older ones with a living memory of the WT's history would be a liability, I imagine.
Better to put them out to pasture, rather than have them reminiscing about the old days to the younger elders.
Even though the GB themselves are all up there in age, except for NKOTB Anderson.

WT Mtg "read scriptures" are only to be read by a 1 brother???
by Olivia Wilde inwe had co visit recently & it appears that the co told the elders of the congregation that the scriptures indicated on the wt to be "read" on the watchtower study are only to be read by 1 brother in the entire study.... the elder conducting the watchtower announced that at the wt mtg... i was like what???
only men?....
has anyone else had this occur in their congregation?

In our hall they would ask anyone, and I mean anyone to read long passages, kids, adults who were slower readers than a fifth grader it was tough to sit through, and bogged everything down. The area I live in is predoninantly farming and the locals leave school young. So, it was like a painfully long kindergarten play every sunday.

The COBE is the elder most likely to end up with several knives in his back, placed there by the other elders with the help of the CO. It's all very political.
