Capytan, i apprecite you looking at all angels but releasing in that maner would be a logistical nightmare. Likely they will post them at the start or end of convention season in the usa in the public area.

friends

email sent to me from a friend in new york city..

brooklyn update january 10, 2015.

we have spent the last few weeks in training at the montgomery facility (near walkill) there are 6 couples that were trained to go on the road as ldc field representatives of the branch.

Doc- DO's didnt make money in any appreciable way, they were simply an extra layer of managment between CO's and the branch. These new LDC's are money makers. Its not apples to apples. Plus it lets them blow out older DO's and bring in younger people to run the LDC's. Additionally the CO was a branch rep who needed health care and the like. The vast majority of the LDC folks are not supported or cared for the branch in anyway (the lone head being the only person i have heard is an exception). And there are only 6 or 7 LDC's compared to dozens of DO's. It makes good sense from the real estate companys managment perspective.

100% request physical copies! make them print them. Make them ship them. Make them store them and hand them out.

"Jehovah ALWAYS had/used an organization". How would you reply?

by EdenOne in

in a recent meeting with elders, an argument was used to the effect that jehovah has always [= throughout history] used, or operated through, an organization; therefore, the wts must be that organization today, since god must be using one.

naturally, i know what arguments i've used to counter that argument.

but i'm interested in hearing yours.

Why did Russell not join that organization instead of starting a new one?

Site Update: Jan 15, 2015

by Simon in

now there's no going back !.

i've just finished cleaning up and decommissioning the old server so for better or worse, we're stuck with the new version now - i hope it's at least no worse the the old site and hopefully getting better as i fix issues and make improvements and people get used to the changes.

apart from rss feeds i think all the features that the old site had are now available on the new one plus many extra ones.. the old server had faithfully served us for the last 3+ years and will now drift away, probably to be used by some other site.

Lol the web thrives on ad's :) embrace it ! Hell, i miss some of the old ones, like the cute mormon girl..... It keeps the site up and free so its a win for all of us

I like the idea of +- next like/dislike. It would let you know it works and it would give the button a definable purpose. As it is, the buttons are there and my mind tells me they work but there is no visible feedback, no real definable purpose to bother clicking them.

urban legends

by chirac in

dear brothers ans sisters.

i just received this mail in french..(thank you google to have translates it)..this mail is from a still inside brother who encourage to come back.

do you think its a fact or an other urban legend.

_Morpheus

Well there is the possiblity that all the stories are true. If you look at the youtube link the brother is actually shown greeting the president. I would however point out what was already said numerous times in this thread: so what...? Handing him a book doesnt equate with a "witness". Hell even if he became a dubbie.... So what? It means nothing other than a politician got snared by cult.
