I just was watching the news about the war in Iraq. It appears that troops loyal to Saddam are shooting prople that are leaving the cities for water and food. This sounds just like people who would leave an organization for reasons of consicence or need and be DF or DA by the loyal elders of the WTBS. The troops were using women and children as human shields which is not unlike a dub on the front lines of spirtual warfare. Give me your thoughts on this if you agree.

Kingdom Hall over 200 miles away
by JH inhere in canada, there are people working in areas up north where kingdom halls are hundreds of miles away.
how can a witness attend a meeting, if there are no kingdom halls around him?
that just proves how stupid it is to think that just jw will be saved.

Why aren't you a believer?
by therealtruthsayer inthere were times in my life when i wondered to myself "am i making a mistake by leaving "jehovah"?
" at this point i know i have no doubts because why would a loving god kill everyone on earth who isn't a witness and i don't think that the true religion of god would be delivered to a white man in america.
that's why i'm no longer a believer.

Leaving Jehovah? If you were in the org you were never with Jehovah. Do you really think that this org is in line with the teachings of Jehovah & Jesus? Do you think their conduct and the way that they treat the dubs is christian? Don't look back, its not a pretty site!

What part of my profile did you notice? My real name is not mann, that is only my user name. Mann comes from the presses I ran at Bethel and 377 was my key #. Nice that you would notice me though.

Where Does the $$ Come From??
by Dia inmany, many people have lengthy recollections of getting nowhere in field service.. no bible studies, not much placement of magazines or books, especially not for significant cash.. so where is the wts getting all their money from?.
i've been wondering..... are (and were) dubs expected to purchase a certain amount of materials every month and then just take on the responsibility of getting rid of it (and getting back their money) themselves?.
if so, you know what that would mean.... it would mean that the wts's millions mostly come from their own 'flock'.
