  In 1974, I was in a small country congregation. We had this big city elder shift in. He came back from a visit to hi s home city and had a bright idea. That we should practise being persecuted, so we had our book study in a farm shed. At a prearranged time two brother would knock on the door and burst in to arrest us all. We had to then hide our literature, and make out we were there for a social.
  One guy even had torn the pages out of his study book and when the knock came promptly chewed and swallowed them. This went on for weeks, until someone [my mother] complained to the CO and he said it was a lot of rot.
  CRAZY......sounds like this guy would do well at armageddon survival class!!

  that the mighty wts fell, that the rank and file stopped swollowing everything they are told and that they called the gb to account and they had to fold.

  what would happen to all of the assetts?

  all those building in brooklyn and patterson and in every other country where they have branches and then all the kingdom halls?

  Thanks for the input. jwfacts, good point, glad to hear that, I'd hate to think that all the nephews and neices of the GB would be able to line their pockets.

  Door to Door

  just wondering... what do you think about the jw going door to door?

  do you like it or dislike it?

  my view is ( weather something is false or not) i think it is great someone shares what they love with someone else.

  Would they all get sold and the money divided between the so called active members?

  JW congegrations

  2. friends

  i have been looking for dates and places when jwitnesses hold their congegrations in their kingdom halls but i have failed to find the dates, i did find one kingdom hall within my city (within a 25 minutes action radius).

  but when do they hold their congegrations?

  i'v never been to one but that you can supposidly walk into any of the congegrations is something.. about a 9 months ago (august 2005) i red an article about a phenomena i would later know as peak oil which is generally about how the western society is very dependant on oil and is incapable of turning away from it before it becomes to expensive of a commodity for us (very generally speaking).

  It all sounds very typical. So many rules were spawned from the commands of Jesus Love God with whole heart, mind and soul; Neighbor as self and Love one another. You can see that he really meant to say all the other stuff about how to run a DC and how to give the talks there and every other frickin rule that has ever been written in the WT/publications.........
  White shirts; suits [trousers and matching jacket] I thought this was just standard clothing for all dubz?

  I dont get it. You requested to DA and they refused. As far as you're concerned, you already DA'd. It is their bad luck if they refused it. You already did. And you sound like you are being treated accordingly. If it was me, I would consider myself out of there.

  Whilst at the last "international" we were all told NOT to support any of the "worldly" food venues in the area. Virtually straight after the announcement, our son and his cousin turn up with food from MacDonalds. All the people around us were aghast, you could see their mouths open in shock and they were waiting for us to "discipline" these naughty boys. But we were too busy,........ laughing til we nearly cried. It was ironic and typical of kids to do that. These two then had to sit there and eat their maccas, while the smell permeated the air for all and sundry.
