Another example of why the WBTS says you must NOT read their older literature. If they tried to write something like this today... let's just say, they wouldn't have to worry about Rev. Al Sharpton - every black witness would revolt !

I was counciled for putting in Pioneer hours and not officially "Pioneering"
by RubaDub ini didn't want to hijack the thread about people having to "wait" until the society approves their pioneer status.. i recall once an elder was shocked that i had done the 60 hours a couple of months but not officially on the pioneer list for the months.
i told him that i didn't need the title, that the purpose was to do the work, not get a title.. i then heard a long lecture about how that was not encouraging to others, etc, etc, etc.. he got rather annoyed when i asked him what the purpose of the preaching work is.
of course he said to spread the good news.

This is hysterical. It's funny the things you never think about going on until someone brings it to your attention. I remember when I good friend of my husband's wanted more than anything to be a full-time pioneer and they just outright refused to accept him. I don't remember what happened, eventually, I guess he gave up trying.

"Gift" Of Singleness?
by WTWizard inthis has to be the biggest piece of s*** i have heard of within the religion.
the last i know, they called marriage a "gift" from god, itself stupid.
if you are not married, you are single--and they are calling that a "gift" too?

I can't remember one person in the organization who said they single by "choice" but actually was. They were either NPGs, mentally unstable or looking without being blatant about it.

Hi Tom - Welcome! The great thing about a discussion board is that all opinions are welcome. Well...maybe not all, but most certainly are!
