i typed into google jehovahs-witness and the first four hits were borg sites.
this site was not even on the first page .
jookbeard: it doesn't work like that!
Yes. It can.

Try doing a search on google for the initials jw only
with private search results turned off
the first result is the official JW website, with six indented links under,
ALL the other results below appear to be either unrelated to WT, or pro-WT, until the approx 45th results which is JWFacts.
i noticed a young brother with a beard being given more privelages within our hall.
when he first grew his beard, he lost his privelages.
but more and more recently he has been helping out a lot more.. the cobe is old school and a stickler for rules, but with the hall becoming more empty these days, and the need for young brothers, he seems to have relaxed on this particular watchtower/man made rule.
truthseeker: I can't remember where I heard this but "a beard more often reveals than conceals"
Star Trek?
does anyone know this guy, where he came from?
how he climbed the jw ladder, i have to say i know nothing about him but he seems to be kicking ass with the problems in the north of england..
jookbeard: does anyone know this guy, where he came from?
It seems that Philip came from the Isle of Wright, with his wife Lorraine....
the following article was printed in todays "daily record", for those interested:.
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/shtml/news/p13s3.shtml
here in australia, during the service meeting this week, the local needs part was taken up to quickly discuss a letter from the organization stating that there will no longer be a annual meeting part to discuss or remind the congregations about their blood cards.. i found this quite odd.. its not like that there is a shortage of meeting time to discuss this issue, as the society has recently been hijacking more and more local needs parts for its own messages.
and for a supposedly important doctrine, you would think that it should be mentioned more often rather than less, to keep everyone in line.. could this be a beginning of the movement away from the blood doctrine, through the process of gradualism?.
no-zombie .
FYI around six years ago, there was a move away from renewing the documents every year to every four years
There is no longer a need to renew our Advance Decision document on a yearly basis, however, we recommend that publishers renew their document at least every four years and, of course, publishers may for various reasons need to update/renew theirs at any time.
i saw this on jw reddit and thought, okay that will just be one of the protesters videotaping near their security entrance but it's really from inside the hq's.
i doubt the org.
will be happy that this was taped and leaked.https://rutube.ru/video/2dbc8185062524a41ed8c9e2117ca39d/.
Yeah, from inside, looking out

fantastic news!
louise palmer, the lass recently interviewed by a major british newspaper and a csa survivor, has tweeted the following:.
what a busy couple of days!
FYI - Interviews with Louise Palmer about her brother Richard Davenport are at the bottom of the OP here -
a new book has just been published called the oxford handbook of the bible in america.
in it is an article by michael gilmour, professor of new testament at (the evangelical) providence university college in manitoba, canada, on jws and the nwt.
that's chapter 41. but that is not the only time jws are brought up.
That's interesting.
Someone highlighted this book here last week:

Apparently Michael J. Gilmour has written "An Outsider’s Notes on the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Revelation: Its Grand Climax at Hand!"

*this post was prompted by a reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/7eqno4/jehovahs_witnesses_promote_truth_by_verifying/.
so.. the org makes the claim that.
"anyone who reads our publications or views our videos can be confident that the facts were thoroughly researched and are accurate.".
OrphanCrow - I was just 'completing' the story arc.
I don't need to go back 27 years, interesting though it is, to highlight a lack of accuracy.
Just this month's (November) JW Monthly Broadcast can be used to do that....
