this week at the book study, at all congregations in the u.s., a letter was read saying if you go to a house or property with a "no trespassing" sign, you must not enter, or knock on the door.
you have to leave immediately.
a sign saying "no solicitors" is too ambiguous, and they are to use their own judgment, and don't have to knock.
I guess "spritual people" keep those stories running!
Like the story of the witness family from africa that had a choice on whether
to work on their field or go to the assembly! Guess what they chose?
Well, when they got back from the assembly their field was intact, but
the neighboring field was rampaged by buzzards

I remember experiences told to us at the stage of foreign country "x" where
no Jehovah's Witness stickers were put at the door. Well the witnesses knocked
anyway.... The moral? The speaker said that the householder did not even know
the sticker/placard was there! And that the local priest was putting them on the door!
I guess the rules are diffrent depending on the country?

Well the law is crappy!
If you bring someone to civil court only, then the law is OK
But if you fail in criminal court, the civil trial should not be allowed, especially when you will not
testify in crimimal court costing tax payers over $200k! You don't think she is going to be
put on the stand and grilled in civil court?
She was also paid almost $20k in money as a sexual victim (fund) she really cost citizens money!
my mother called me in a tizzy saying that her friend heard that letters were read and a talk was given in 2 different congregations saying that the society's new policy is that if a elder, m.s.
or pioneer attends an "unequaled" wedding----they will be removed from their exemplary positions because they are "disloyal to jehovah god"........what do you think about this one?
?
I was told by the C.O. at the meeting he has with Elders and MS when he comes over for his visit
"If you go to a celebration/get together/wedding/dinner/etc..... and there is a disfellowshipped person
in the midst, you must leave or risk your consequences".
There is much more said by the direct orders, than printed on paper!
Tell me something, which loyal dub would risk their position for what they
might feel themselves? position including pioneering means the world to them
eldubs in florida (maybe elsewhere too) have been told that the kingdom halls should not be used for relief efforts or for shelters.
liability and insurance issues were stated as the reason.. will try and get a copy of this letter.. of course the kingdom halls are supposed to be the center of true worship and a place of comfort but i guess only in fair weather.
what a crock.
Bravoooooooooooooo!

I Don't expect anyone to get away with rape or crime.... No matter how rich they are.
But I feel fear for the reasons I outlined above. Law is imperfect and good "actors" can make you believe
crappy (looks like a 10 year old made the video).
my children did not care to watch yesterday when put on tv.
another video full of blood/gore/sex, and the good old testament way.
The david video looks like a clone of te Noah video

I remember when I got hit by a hurricane, that I got:
a big plastic tub, couple bottles of bleach, cleaning soluctions, and towels. I can't
recall the organization, but I remember that even though these items cost very
little, they were helpful to keep hygienic..... They also gave written educational
material on how to stay safe this way!
You can't compare the WT way to these guys! (WT way.... Left hand out to you, while Right hand extended waiting to receive from you!)
Yes, and I'm a Jehovar

They ask for donations.... of course!
But, do they ask when things are normal? Or to the people they are helping?
