  Counting time

  by Emma in

  2. scandals

  i may not have put this in the correct spot, but i do think it's scandalous the way time gets counted now.

  i've seen a cart at the edge of our farmer's market, never anyone close enough to talk.

  yesterday was a drizzly day and there were two carts set up, covered in plastic, "witnessing" on their own.

  So imagine if the same attitude toward "counting time" was applied by an employee at a job?

  The rounding up of hours, the lack of productivity etc....

  Yes, that person would be fired quick smart!

  Campaign to invite people to meetings

  by StarTrekAngel in

  just found out last night that our congo is starting a campaign to invite interested people to meetings.

  the instructions for the campaign clear out that "interested" people are not just those whom we visit often or have bible studies with.

  it includes and random stranger we may talk to and who may show a hint of interest on the religion.

  Did your congregation rehearse service meeting parts?

  by compound complex in

  i was just thinking back to some parts i conducted.

  when other publishers were involved in the part, its success often depended on how well rehearsed the participants were.

  timing, proper interplay of dialogue, dramatic impact, etc.. as the one giving the part or as one drafted to do a demo, did your elders require rehearsals?.

  Technically, every part is supposed to be rehearsed in front of the PO or COBE before the night of the part.

  In reality, it rarely ever happens!

  september 21, 2016 to all congregations re: global assistance arrangement for the 2017 service year.

  ps to bodies of elders:.

  this postscript should not be read to the congregation, and this letter should not be placed on the noticeboard.

  Why do they play the charade of "passing a resolution" when they are really just TELLING the flock what will be done?!

  WHY and HOW can't the average witness see this for what it is?

  Perhaps their "minds have been blinded"?!

  Bible Contradictions regarding forgiveness & revenge...Not a trustworthy moral guide

  by krismalone in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  recent broadcast have gerrit losch talking about not holding a grudge and in septembers broadcast david splain talking about not demanding an apology after being wronged.

  the subject of forgiveness and revenge is one of many examples of moral contradictions in the bible.

  the book 1984 mentioned the terms double think and double speak.

  Well said!

  You made some very valid points indeed!

  The hypocrisy of the society is disgraceful when it comes to this issue!
