If anyone has seen Ken Ham's "ark-park", you will note the factual depictions of dinosaurs ON the ark!
And, as everyone knows, Ken Ham is never wrong!

Dinosaurs in Paradise
by The Real Edward Gentry ini'm so thankful for sites such as this.
i realise it's our imperfection but god's organization is not always open to 'outside the box' thinkers such as ourselves.
i've been researching dinosaurs and god's reason for not preserving these beasts beyond the flood of noah's day.

Positive Topic - ‘Good Elders’ or Extra Special Kindness shown by elders
by Farmer Jim1 inafter the last topic getting me mad, does anyone have a positive experience of dealing with an elder or a particular favourite elder that was a top bloke?.

Yes. In fact @wakemeupbeforeyoujo-ho 's father was one of the good ones!
As an Elder, he was always mild and calm. A great example even in the face of some really unwarranted and grossly unfair treatment. He displayed such dignity when forced to step down, that I feel he taught a great deal by means of his example.
He also was one of the only elders who really put forth effort in tailoring a shepherding visit to the needs of individuals.
He also took his assignments very seriously, and put tremendous effort into his parts.
Another elder that comes to mind is one that is no longer alive sadly. As I was fading, he took time to catch up for coffee a few times. He heard my concerns about some inappropriate things occurring in the cong by other Elders. He said something along the lines that "I will not rest until these matters are sorted" He also told me something once that still makes me wonder if he was kind of awake? "Never stop researching things"
We attended his khall funeral farce. Ironically, it was given by one of the very elders he assured me he was going to investigate!

From enemies to friends: Did it really happen?
by StephaneLaliberte inyesterday, they showed the story “from enemies to friends” at the kingdom hall.
my mother in law told me about it as she was touched by the story.
so then, later in the evening, i searched for the video and found it in the january 1st 2017 broadcast.

Yup! I know of plenty of embellished "interviews" at assemblies! For an organisation that calls themselves The Truth, these assembly parts are anything but!

Yes, as Incognito said, all other institutions have either said sorry or acknowledged that there has been a problem with their procedures.
The Society on the other hand has arrogantly dismissed any suggestion of a problem, and have been less than transparent or honest with all procedures and enquires!
"Truly, by their fruits you will know them"

It's all about the money!
With the court cases looming in Canada, the GB will use any means to get their hands on more money! They are going to need it when the penalties are handed down!

Do you or did you experience too much intrusion into your personal life by the elders in your congregation?
by UnshackleTheChains ini ask this question because i have personally experienced first hand the control and intrusion into my personal life by the elders at our hall; and for virtually trivial things or non issues!
what's more, i regularly hear of individuals moving to other halls because they were stumbled by the thought police....er, i mean these elders.. have you had any such experience?
have your elders been a bit ott over trivialities?.
-

Yes!
I can remember a firm conversation I had with the elder who looked after our fs group. I was his ms assistant. He would speak in derogatory terms about ones under our care especially if they missed a day of service.
I reminded him that we "do not know their personal circumstances, and that it is not our place to encroach. He snapped back : "yes it is my right to know everyone's business! Nothing should be secret from me"
I calmly stated again "no, we should respect appropriate boundaries!"

My guess is that they will conveniently make it disappear - just like the watchtower logo and name have disappeared from Kingdom Halls worldwide.
The GB 2.0 want nothing to do with the Society of old and the name WATCHTOWER.
I also predict that the name for the magazine will be changed sometime soon.... maybe it will be called Jw.org

gb, PLEASE, PLEASE UP THE ORGANIZATIONAL HARSHNESS IN 2018
by steve2 insometimes i have expressed a longing for jw organization to tone down its rhetoric and become, well, nicer and more loving.
i have not been alone in my hope.
some posters have even said that if a wave of kindness washed over jw organization and, say, the shunning doctrine was modified (e.g., left up to the individual's conscience without fear of retribution from elders), they'd go back.

Episode Four - Mike is shunned by Jehovah's Witnesses - Is Live Now
by dubstepped inin this episode we explore mike’s story of being shunned at an early age while still living at home, and how even today although he isn’t officially “shunned” he’s still treated that way as an inactive jehovah’s witness.
not all who are “shunned” are disfellowshipped or disassociated from the organization.
shunning is in the dna of jehovah’s witnesses, something that really marks them as a high control religion, also known as a cult.. .
