  today, saturday i figured i'd take a little run to the adventist church to see how similiar they are to the witnesses.

  after talking with them i just had to run to the computer, asap.. after the service, people started walking out.

  i felt like walking out too b/c there was a lot of old people and they were kind of cliqueish.

  I find your story amusing and you are kinda like the guys in Fight Club who go to the different help groups not because they need help but just for sh*t and giggles. Hey, and I guess the free food is a bonus.

  Legal Eagles

  various media reports indicate that the wbts often employs the services of a large number of lawyers and i have seen it suggested that some of the top legal minds amongst them are in fact jehovahs witnesses.. since a qualified and experienced lawyer will have been trained in the art of digging out and scrutinising factual information, how come these people are jw?s?

  if they applied their training, to the lest extent, to an examination of "the truth" (tm) it would quickly be seen as a load of bull puckey, even by a halfwit.

  it could not possibly stand up to proper scrutiny by a person trained and qualified in the legal profession.

  I could imagine that the WT would train their own lawyers but don't find that too realistic. Would this be the one case where the WT encourages higher education. That indeed would be ironic, R&F not going to college yet paying for someone else to go to college so they can remain ignorant. I don't think it would make sense to have a lawyer that would also be a JW defending you, conflict of interest and everything. Then again, maybe if aren't a dub, there is no way to defend them, you just can't get it.

  My state must have the most JW's!

  i was thinking about this yesterday and i was thinking that my state pennsylvania must have one of the highest concentration of dubs either in real numbers or per capital.

  i'm just basing this on a hunch, no data to back it up.

  also, this is where russel did get his start, kinda scary.

  Yeah, I was thinking New York, but that is an abnomality, plus aren't they downsizing anyways. If Pennsylvania doesn't have the most, then I definately do think they have the most militant hard core JW's around. These dubs are going down with the ship.

  Ah, those poor Bethelites have to move. Well, at least they probably don't have much to move since they are totally poor, a box maybe two at the most. I hope they start pulling the plug on everthing, shut it down.

I'm curious if anyone does officially know what U.S. state has the highest dub count. I don't really ever remember the WT giving such figures in the year book or any other publication for that matter.

  It just seems like every where I go, I run into some dub that I used to know, I think I may have to leave the state. So, if I move, maybe I could move to a state or other country for that matter that has the lowest dub count. I have heard that the Scandinavian countries are rapidly declining in numbers. Any thoughts?

  Maui is just amazing. That's where I got married and I hope to go back some day soon. Hopefully in about two years when i graduate and get my teaching degree I will be able to live there a few years. I know that they are desperate for teachers there and offer many incentives. I want to live in a quiet place like Hana on the one side of the island with black sand, somewhere of the beaten track. I wouldn't mind living there for a few years but I'm not sure if I would want to live there forever. Hey, even in paradise you can feel like you are stuck on an island.

  you be the judge.

  note: the preceding study article also shows an african man in ethnic dress reading the bible; this article concludes with a photo of the same african studying the publications.

  an appeal to the sons of ham?.

  I do find a Walkhill closing to be unrealistic for they did just spend so much money remodeling and adding on. Also, I'm not sure who would buy such a thing. A weird mix of factory type buildings, farms, and apartments. It would have to be some crazy cult like the Branch Davidians, oh wait a cult already owns it. I do think that that Walkhill must be losing it's advantages. Even when I was there in 2000, they were already starting to downsize some of the farming they did there. They have to be losing money on the whole farming thing, especially when you consider how cheaply you can buy food instead of taking care and housing hundreds and hundreds of Bethelites so they can make milk. Does that make sense?
