Thats a lot of money for a losing model. Do you really think that the watchtower/awake make them any money anymore? Very few are placed those that are result in little or no contribution. Whenever I see them in the hospital I throw them in the garbage just like everyone else does so yeah money is dripping dripping dripping down the drain...

More Society cutbacks - Society says "screw you" to the publishers yet again
by sir82 inat our service meeting it was announced that there is a change in the manner in which magazines are now to be delivered to the congregations.. up until now, magazines were sent to each kingdom hall via ups.
in years past magazines were sent to each congregation po's home address via ups.. going forward, magazines will be sent only as far as the assembly hall.
it is the responsibility of each kingdom hall to send brother(s) twice a month to drive out there, pick up the magazines, and return.. this of course saves a little bit of money for the society - shipping larger packages to fewer addresses will cost less.. however, what about the expense to the local congregations?.

At the end of my rope :(
by tec inbut i guess this is my first big rant.. this last year has been the hardest year of my life.
my son tried to kill himself ( he did something pretty bad, got caught, and i guess that's the only way he thought to deal) i am also very close to actually hating my husband, and i do not hate people.
and every decision that i make lately seems to be the wrong one.

My point is that this is one side of a two sided story and all you guys telling her 'your right it's all his fault' don't know WTF your talking about. Go get some couples counseling where the professional counselor can listen to BOTH sides.
Quite honestly listening to your whining and bitching I'm already half on his side...

Fried Green Tomato recipe... anyone?
by Billy the Ex-Bethelite ini've searched watchtower library, but couldn't find a recipe for fried green tomatoes.
i would call bethel for theocratic direction on how to scripturally fry these green tomatoes i have, but the switchboard doesn't open until tomorrow.
i want to fry these greenies today.. since this website is called "jehovahs-witness.net", i'm hoping that someone here would have the "true", and theocratically approved, recipe for fried green tomatoes.

I love fried green tomatoes but my recipe is unfortunately the apostate one. You have to slice the tomatoes and then rub them all over a couple naked girls before you fry them!

Maybe you should get some counseling? We're just as professional as the elders are I mean anything we tell you is just amateur circle jerking...

Have BP been plugging the wrong hole? Additionally a note to Americans about Al Megrahi
by slimboyfat ini saw this video a while ago ago.
simmons says he reckons the pictures bp have been broadcasting and the hole they have plugged in the last few days is not the source of the oil leak at all.
if the oil is indeed leaking somewhere else it may make the situation much more serious.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdgaou1h2gm.

If you exclude anything BUT direct commenting on matters , as represented by "this is what Jehovah has said"...and you exclude any idea that because someone wrote a note down and it got passed around that the note is magical

if you stop treating the book like it's a magical device, what do you get?.
what is it really saying?.

It's NOT one cohesive book it's a shit ton of little books that were piled together by some dudes. That is it... Be like taking the lord of the rings, the wheel of time and little women and trying to make one cohesive book/story out of it!

Have you realized bible teaches judgement based on THIS life, no 'free' 2nd chance?
by EndofMysteries inmost of us been taught that those who 'die' before gt, get a free clean slate in resurrection, in essence, they can do anything they want now, but those who are unlucky to be alive during the gt better have it right or too late.
read every scripture speaking about the gt and the resurrection, and i can't find any that support that.
seems all die, and in the day of judgement, are raised up to be judged according to what you did while alive.

I'm NOT a fan of police brutality... I think in most municipalities the police are little better than an organized gang and YES I do have a LOT of experience working WITH law enforcement and have never been in trouble with the law EVER but I do work in the jail system sometimes and I see a LOT of abuse and I mean a LOT.
That said you put your HANDS on someone you deserve a punch, you should be able to SAY whatever you want but you want to touch someone? FUCK NO...
However I think that the cops who hit people or taze them for saying things (and I don't care WHAT they say) should be tried for assault and sent to prison!
