quite a while ago i mentioned to my parents about the un scandal but they didn't seem too interested, but when i called in the other day my mother mentioned it to me again.
they had a elder and his wife (family friends who i was previously very very close to) staying with them for the convention and discussed it with them.
the elders wife is a very strong personality and super-spiritual but when she heard of the scandal back in spring she had a huge problem with it.
coffee,
The article they cite in the 1995 Watchtower was there because it was part of the requirement as an NGO to promote and support the charter of the UN in their publicatons.
That's why I think the follow-up question of this sister should be:
Did you write this promotional material as part of your NGO agreement with the UN?

For a balanced view of the United Nations organisation, please see The Watchtower of October 1, 1995, page 7, of which a photocopy is enclosed.
Isn't it really kind of the Faithful and Discreet to tell dubs which Watchtower publication gives them a balanced view of the topic in question under given circumstances? This way the troubled sister knew she shouldn't refer to the "Revelation Climax" book to get a balanced view on the matter. At least not this time. How helpful!

according to the news a london mosque has been surrounded by armed police and a man has been shot dead on a london train
Looks like they're trying to hunt down yesteday's would-be bombers.

The WTS liers have their standard reply that will appease most dubs since most dubs do not really want to know about the UN thing.
I guess a better question to ask if someone is planning on sending a letter asking about the UN association is:
Did you publish any articles either in the Watchtower of Awake magazines and send them to the DPI of the UN to fulfill the NGO membership criteria? Please answer yes or no.

of course, by the end, i was writing zeros that looked like possible sixes. he he he
CUNNING!
First I was honest. Then I kept making personal promises that I'd make it up the next month and when no angel of Jehoba struck me after a few months, I started reporting fake hours. I was on my way out of the org anyway.

i saw you have joined us here at jwd.
i wanted to extend a welcome to you.. i hope you enjoy your stay here.
i look forward to reading what you have to share.. miss peaches.
Hello and welcome!
Pole of the 'it's after midnight here' class
we generally hear negative stories about the jws but were there any who did an act of kindness towards you that really helped you out?
Sure - a lot of good dubs are helpful. As a witness I helped some and some helped me. The trouble is that it was all ultimately conditional. The real question is: how many JWs would help 'an apostate'? And how many apostates would help a JW? Unconditionally.

or will one of them invaribly end up being attracted to the other?
I have had a few fairly close female friends that I never really felt attracted to, although they were attractive for most men (and for me if I thought about it LOL). I'm not sure if all of them felt the same towards me, though.
Pole - of the 'easy to exploit' class ;-)
what would it be?
for me i would get rid of the disfellowshipping!
Simple: Encourage real public discussions and questioning of the official doctrines.
That would do it. Within a few years there would be 10 miniorgs - some of them mainstream and liberal.
