  "downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.

  see how cold and unloving is the language they use.

  a translation attempt is as follows:.

  Largest amount of refugees since WW2 in Europe

  so i had a discussion with my mother about this, and she claims that because of this that: "we are surely living in the last days right now" while i must admit myself that the situation seem chaotic, i don't want to believe that it is the last days.

  so question is, how do i face an opinion like that?

  The irony of this picture is that Saudi Arabia has a refugee tent city that can hold over a million people completely empty. They're even air conditioned!

  i'm not jw, so i see this all standing up and very clear from an outsider perspective (i am still seeking my path).

  i joined the blog a few weeks ago.

  i dated a divorced jw (jw from birth) for a couple of years recently.

  WireRider: "A letter campaign. Mail bomb them."

  There are people, in a good position to do that, that are planning such a mail bombing. That's all I can say without revealing those plans.

  Printing Company to Video Production Company - Insider Information

  by thedepressedsoul in

  2. bible

  many people think that wt is a publishing company and at one time that was true.

  however, they are slowly fading that out into more digital publications.

  we all have come to the conclusion that printed material from the wt is going way of the dinosaur.

  In your links section at the bottom; where you have recommended books listed; Crisis of Conscience and The Gentile Times Reconsidered are linked to Amazon where you have ridiculously overpriced copies.

  I suggest that you link both to free PDF copies that are available online.

  Cedars leaked letter requested to be taken down by WTBTS

  i don't know if this is already posted so sorry people if it is.

  cedars site has had a request to take down the leaked letter regarding changes to the theocratic ministry school and other issues.. the reason given by wt is that it is a "copyright" issue.

  of course this validates the letters authenticity even more.. have a good day or night people.

  Fading Truth:

  "Village Idiot, are you volunteering to reimburse Simon for all legal costs and time spent to fight something that has been leaked sufficiently across the Internet?"

  I don't know what's involved in a counter notification but if it's a simple procedure that doesn't need any legal aid it should be done.

  cappytan:

  "Cedars addressed why he didn't issue the counter notification."

  Yes, but that was a mistake since it will only encourage the Watchtower to do that in the future with his site and other sites that duplicate their letters.

  What would we think if Simon were issued such a notification? We would want him to fight it!

  Are those letters copyrighted?

  Cedars should have issued a counter notification. By taking his letter off his site he is simply encouraging the Watchtower to keep issuing those complaints in the future.

  Are the GB very intelligent men with higher than average IQ? Or are they stupid men who were put in their position by sheer “LUCK”

  by John Aquila in

  are the governing body of the wt wickedly smart with extremely high iq or are they leaders of the wt because they were at the right place at the right time.

  (in other words, pure luck )-think lottery.

  ive seen them talk in jwtv and you can never convince anyone in the whole world that these guys are in the same category as someone smart or cunning like jim simons who founded renaissance technologies or bill gates.

  You don't go to the top of any hierarchy by sheer luck nor do you have to be a genius (unless it's a tech company).
