I was quite tolerant of this guy until now
by never a jw inpresident trump is definitely a demagogue, a populist, and not a great extemporaneous speaker, just to mention few of his more conspicuous flaws.
however, i was going along because "it's the economy stupid".
now that has changed.

I certainly prefered him to her, though im not sure that makes me a supporter of his... that said this is a bad idea. Protectionism never works.

Oh Boy! Beards are "stumbling blocks" again ... from Stephen Lett
by freddo inso this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.

The mistake is thinking the gb care about making the religion more accessible. They dont. The size of the cult is irrelevant to them. ‘Narrow is the road and few finding it’ and all that. They want a comparatively small easy fo handle cult that is self sustaining. Growth attracts attention from money grubbing governments and lawyers. Beards birthdays and blow jobs will never change. They. Dont. Care. To make it. Easy.

I bet that exactly what happened in 2002, they made some update to the wording. Maybe atlantis or someone else has an old copy we could compare too

I signed one in 1994. They had been around for a while, it may have been updated when they had you sign that one. Im sure some of the folks who were at bethel before me can chime in on whether or not they around prior to but i recall hearing they were.
Basically it was for tax status and to prevent anyone from claming they deserved to be paid after the fact. Its all cya bethel style.
To punks original question, 100% legit, and now we have the poster in question verifying ;)

Subtle yet clear attempt to influance thinking. phycology teaches us that you never try to tell someone NOT to think something. The end result is that the human automatically beings to think the thought that was implanted. So what happens here.... rather than treat the gb as “normal” they have given the thought, inadvertently or not, that the gb should be treated like angles. Too late, btw. Toght pants tony said in the branch visit a few years ago if you didnt like what he said you could take it up with jesus. He already compared himself to being just below jesus.
