  Simon,

  I willl try to describe this accurately and will provde more detail if its helpful, but recently the forum has been giving me a popup on my phone. I have cleared the cashe, cookies and saved websites bit it still happens fairly often, at least once every 3 threads i click on. I will post a ss of the popup.

  The reason i wonder if it may be a script of some sort on the forum is because it only happens here. No other website or forum i visit pops this up. If its something on my phone i will attack it that way, just inquiring of anyone else is having this issue with IOS based browers?

  2. child-abuse

  in the montana sex abuse court case for the first time watchtower has been required by the courts to give a financial statement to the court to assess awards of punitive damages for negligence and (for the first time)malice in non compliance of mandatory reporting laws.. watchtower corp of new york has finances in excess of $2 billion while cc of jw is worth $49 million.

  this doesn't include the pensylvania corp or what overseas branches may have.. pretty healthy bank balance by any standards..

  i asked the question on quora: .

  if the governing body abandoned the 1914 teaching, would you leave jehovah's witnesses or you would remain a member regardless?.

  2. beliefs

  Not only is it a stero type its outdated. My 90 year old great uncle uses his computer everyday. My father (same age as gb members) is a huge techno guy. Thats not the issue for the gb... the problem is they live a huge bubble. They are insulated from society, quite literally. What they know of social norms and societal trends come up to them from the co’s who get a lot of it from the rank and file. They are txt book dwellers in ivory towers. Bethel is just like that and they are the top of the bethel food chain.

  Maybe the video feeds to all the halls didn't bring in as many donations as wanted.

  And THAT is probably a big factor

  Maybe there is some sort of crisis going on at the headquarters and things are falling apart quicker than we expected.

  Rotflmao!!!! Slim, you remain a treasure. Never ever change :)

  its nothing. Some may have gotten accustomed to fanfare and broadcast of the annual meeting but it really hasnt happened much. This the norm. Nothing to see here.

  by ShirleyW in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm being serious, i would like to hear from folks here that support him describe to me how that news conference was absolute brilliance, he answered all the questions, he knows what he is talking about.

  just want to compare note with those who aren't his supporters (and have common sense) as you know this forum is here to hear both sides, so, have at it .

  The people who think he is a genius are very similar to the people who will believe anything the watch tower says.

  Dirt Fishing - Latest Coin Finds

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. physical

  it's that time of year again when i can get back on the fields with the metal detector looking for ancient stuff.

  the first field to be harvested was full of peas - ideal as it leaves no stubble and it's a two minute walk from my house.

  it has given up two coins in two visits this week.. the first one is a cut-half silver penny from the reign of henry ii.

  EU Court Ruling Against WT on Data-Protection

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  today's london times reports on the july ruling of the eu court that forces the organisation country to comply with data protection.. the action originated in finland but the ruling will affect every eu country.

  the cult tried unsuccessfully to argue that the notes taken by jws in the door-to-door work were personal and not accessed by the congregation.

  the court ruled that they are acting under the auspices of the congregation and therefore they must comply with data-protection laws.. keeping lists of do-not-calls also falls under this ruling.. why does the cult always feel that it is above the law?.
