Well there you go. Not wasting anyones time at this meeting. They gave life saving information about what color of socks not to wear. And some breaking news that there are gay men in the fashion industry...who'd have thunk it. It looks like some in high places in the dark tower is having a little bit of a personal problem dealing with men in tight pants.

I have two take aways from the zoned out meeting
by Sour Grapes inout of three hours only two things really caught my attention.
i was surprised there was no special annoucements or more new light.
the first thing is that we know that the org is having a difficult time having young males reach out to be a ministerial servents to carry microphones and adjust the height of the podium.

01/15/2016 Watchtower Study "Keeping Loyal Despite So Many Quitters, With The Power of the Widow's Mite"
by frankiespeakin ini'm sure there will come a day when attandence just keeps plummenting, and the the kingdom hall crowd are just a bunch of aged old timers/retirees complaining about how all the young people are forgetting about jehovah and are going after all that satan's world has to offer.
what would the wt study articles look like to keep this aged non wage earning crowd putting some of their social security benefits in the contribution box?.
i offer the theme: "keeping loyal despite so many quitters, with the power of the widow's mite".

With a lot of them I think the boys in the tower could say anything they want and still maintain their loyal support. I see old (probably retired) dubs in my area out wasting the day standing on the corner working on their time card when the be out playing golf or something. I think they could tell these guys that jehovah will return in 2020 as a large cabbage god and they would believe it and fork over more money.

Hi Everyone!
by poopsiecakes ini haven't been here in quite a while and thought i'd pop by.
i do lurk at times, i confess lol.
after reading the recent publications at the new golden calf (jw.org), my mind is kind of blown that jw's are still not seeing through the constant adjustments, clarifications, new light and reversals.

Hi Poopsiecakes. Glad to hear you're doing so well. Like BizzyBee I've been out a long time and can't believe that many of the people I knew are still dubs. What an unbelievable waste of their lives.

How much meaning are the rank and file putting on October 2014?
by JimmyPage init's definitely on their minds.
i attended a funeral recently and a jw told me that the person who died almost made it to the 100 year anniversary of the birth of the kingdom.. curious what comments like this you've heard in your area?.
(and can't wait for november!).

I think it at least deserves a t-shirt or an anniversary book bag. Shot glass?

The epitome of cognitive dissonance
by sir82 init is rare to get such a startling, sparkling, perfect example of this.. here is a snippet of a conversion going on at jwtalk.net regarding israel/gaza:.

every one who is in the world today and dies tomorrow is in line for a ressurection.this is their best way of being in the new world.

And if as they say "God knows the heart" then why would he bother to resurrect them if he knows that he is just going to have to kill them all over again. Why not just resurrect the nice one? The ones that will fit in.

Why WT reform would never work
by JimmyPage ini used to think how great it would be if the wt finally made long overdue changes.
higher education would no longer be frowned upon.
men could have beards.

To me reform would mean getting rid of everything that was wrong or didn't make sense. If they admitted that Christ didn't return in 1914 then select them in 1919 and that the old men in Brooklyn weren't chosen by God and didn't know what the hell they were talking about not much would be left.
They would also have to remove the door to to door work delivering of the faulty message and admit that it was a complete waste of time emphasize by the fact jdubs who have been there a while spend most of there time in field service figuring out ways to count time without actually having to speak to anyone.
