have you all read this weeks study article?.
oh my word it is full of fear inducing tactics....doom and gloom outlooks.... anxiety inducing methods to develop absolute control over witnesses and cripple them in any attempt to think for themselves!.
(notice i am saying "themselves" rather than "ourselves"?!
After this WT finished, comments overheard were: What a wonderful WT study, Worldly people are so blind that they can't see how close to the end we are. Our WT conductor even told us that when we are hiding in this basement, all elders can log into JW.ORG to get the latest instuctions from HQ. It is very possible that the mail service will be down but JW.ORG will still be available. If you don't attend every meeting you will be left outside...

opening comments.
christians, should i attend kingdom hall meetings to discreetly "preach" to jws about the real jesus and the lies of the watchtower?.
.
i plan to go undercover and plant seeds into them.. .
How do you indeed to do this? You are very unlikely be picked to comment during the meeting, and if you do get to comment, they won't ask you again if your words don't match what the WT teaches. When talking to people after the meeting, as soon as you start to talk about your (reason for going to the meeting) your topics, you will be judged as being an interested person who has still got a lot to learn, or an apostate. You will be judged an apostate if you bring up anything about WT in a negative way. So all in all, I think you will be wasting your time.
i can recall sometime ago in the 60`s 70`s or theirabouts,it when they first printed their own songbook must have been before the org.copyrighted their material,and the reason they did that is because some brothers were stealing the tunes ?
maybe modifying them and passing them off as their own for commercial gain?
( i know some of you are going to say wtf ?
Welcome Calvin Tillis
May I say I enjoyed your comments, You should start your own tread with the above. Thanks
a letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .
This was read out at out meeting tonight in New Zealand. We are also told to destroy any copies that we may have of this slip. All copies in our kh have been destroyed. No reason why was given, but more information will come out in the weeks to come. Maybe they not sure what scriptural twist to apply to this new light for us down here in this part of the world.
i've been a lurker for quite some time and enjoy the forum.
i've reached a point in life where i don't argue ideologies anymore so i don't have much to say.
i've been out for decades and believe i've been mostly de-cultabilized (if that's even a word).. my family is still in and i haven't had contact with them in years.
Good afternoon Mark from New Zealand
