Its an interesting Suggestion and one touched on in CoC. There was evidently a big dust up when "commentary on james" was written over that very matter. when writting that publication it was argued that reporting if service time was counter to the spirit of the scriptures and removed emphisis from other important aspects of christian living. I agree very much however it goes contrary to the orgs big picture recruiting efforts. The real irony is that by creating closer knit congregations retention, especially of young ones, would be much higher. They are so caught up in running things they cant see the obviousness of the truth

New Monthly Report Suggestion!
by The Searcher injust an idea for the weekly g.b.
conclave to consider - unless it's too christian for them to think about!.
paul wrote this to the "israel of god" - galatians 6:2 " go on carrying the burdens of one another, and in this way you will fulfill the law of the christ.".

I dont know about you SHFF but the reaction from the bodies locally was "never again". The cult managed to get the message accross with crystal clarity.

Yea 6 months is too short to show repentance. Two local congregations got their hands slapped by the branch within the last year for reinstating people too quickly. The story is, the branch feels its hard to get df'd now and that mercy is shown so much that if you df'd it must be bad

Im well aware that jabba sold out to disney who in turn hired jar jar abrams. I referanced that earlier.
also, as noted my dear poopsie, i am true fan and want nothing but the best from the movie and the franchise overall. However, if the best we can do is "ancient lightsabers venting energy in a way that makes it look like a broad sword", as if somehow there is "extra" energy in a weapon composed of pure energy, then we are already reaching Illogical and illconcived conclusions. Its not my fault the last four installments have reeked of garbage. And as for the clone wars..... They were decent but enough.

Stars a new hope was cinema gold. Emipire was pretty darn good. Down hill on a rocket sled after that
