Jw kids setting off fire alarms in hotels

by purrpurr in

a friend of mine is staying at a hotel next to one of the big convention sites this weekend.

yesterday she tells me one of the hotels had to be evacuated and the fire brigade called when the fire alarm went off.. it turned out to be a bunch of jw kids having a prank.

she had been speaking to the hotel manager who told her that this happens every year and only when the jw's come to stay!.

Royal Commission questioning of:

Rodney Spinks

Elder in Australia Branch Office

Q. Thank you. Mr Spinks, could you look at your first

statement, paragraph 66. I just want to ask you some

questions about the role of the regular pioneers. As

I understand it, from the viewpoint of a layperson, a

regular pioneer preaches in the community in public; is

that correct?

A. Yes, all of Jehovah's Witnesses preach publicly in the

community. A regular pioneer is someone who says, "I want

to expand my ministry", but what you say is correct, yes.

Q. So they, the regular pioneers, may preach in a public

place, such as a shopping centre or something like that?

A. Yes.

Q. They also go door to door, knocking on people's doors?

A. Yes.

Q. Attempting to engage people in conversation and to

communicate to them your understanding of the world; is

that correct?

A. Yes.

Q. Or Jehovah's understanding of the world?

A. Yes.

Q. That may also involve going back on a number of

occasions and taking part in family discussions and

returning to the home and being invited into the home; is

that correct?

A. Yes, Jehovah's Witnesses conduct Bible studies with

people, yes.

Q. I'm talking now, in particular, about the role of the

regular pioneer - not generally. Do you understand that?

A. Sure.

Q. As I understand it, the regular pioneer strategy, for

want of a better word, has been quite successful in growing

the flock around the world?

A. I don't know how to quantify that. I guess - I have

no reason to question it. I guess a missionary, a special

pioneer and a regular pioneer, by nature, is going to spend

more time in the preaching work.

Excuse me. You don't know? You guess?

YOU GUESS??????

Requested to have all the shepherding concerns in writing.

by quincemyles in

i have not turned in a single field service report this year.

i decided not to, after noticing the simple flaw in the calculation of 1914. the implications are huge, i.e the appointment of the fds is a fraud.

i some days ago informed them of the private watchtower documents that are in my possession courtesy of the royal commission.

' ... Today they informed me that they wished to make a shepherding call on me...'

Let us not forget what 'shepherding' really is.

'Sheep herding'

Convicts were sent from England to Australia after the war of independence with Britain. Before the war the convicts were sent to America by Britain

I don't think a Royal Commission held in Missouri would have the same punch

January 25, 1788 -

- the first 9 ships to carry prisoners from Britain arrived at Port Jackson. Nine ships carrying 759 convicts and their guards left Portsmouth on May 13, 1787, and arrived at what would be the first penal colony in Australia, New South Wales. This was the first European settlement in Australia, if you can call a penal colony a settlement. I guess it was.

Between 1788 and 1850 the English sent over 162,000 convicts to Australia in 806 ships. These were the 'unwanted', the dregs, who had nothing good to contribute to society and deserved only to be cast away from the civilized. Much that was derogatory was said about them by religious leaders.They were the indecent, the immoral and the unlawful.

Flash forward to July - 2015.

What could very well be the descendants of these convicts, cast out of decent society, are now heading a Royal Commission to find out if a religious organization has been acting in a indecent, immoral and unlawful manner.

Absolutely AMAZING isn't it?

I think the blonde is using darker lipstick. She must have decided, after viewing videos of the proceedings, that more prominent lipstick was in order. I agree and approve.

Justice McClellan was annoyed by not being made aware of the authority of Jackson as a GB top dog. Material needed if any one here could ..

by umbertoecho in

hello again.. splash had a pile of scriptural evidence which he uploaded and it was good material.

it established the gb as the fds and used watchtower study articles.........i don't know if he was the only one but the material flew in the face of what those men have been saying.

it proves, using their own material how they indeed think they are the ones with the direct control over millions of lives, because as you know.........they are the direct hot line to god.
