The updated Organized book
by Richard_I inthe updated organized to do our will book is now up.
i just skimmed through it very quickly and i think they are more lenient on reporting time now (p. 76):.
there are essential activities for which time is not counted, such as getting ready for field service, attending themeeting for field service, running errands, and so forth.

First thoughts on "new" meeting...
by konceptual99 inhad a quick look at the workbook and flicked through the sample meeting video.. the increased use of video shows the trend for more centralised dissemination of "best practice" .
sure there isn't really a "school" any more and the format is a bit different but i think those that called it as the same old crap just in new package got it pretty much right.

Have you noticed how much the literature is regressing down to baby talk? I had a look at the new "What Can The Bible Reach Us" It's like reading to a baby! -

The claw hand appears once again. To be honest, the revelation book had so many dire illustrations its hard to number. That particular picture was pretty weird for many reasons, look at the heads, they are so disproportionate to the body! -

Muse is one of my favourite bands of all time. Drones has to be one of their best albums to date and really resonates to the life we previously had being part of a high control cult. -

I think we've well and truly thrashed out the fact the letter is indeed genuine. Some of us (me ) are very cynical these days and never take anything first hand. But I do humbly have to admit i'm an ass this time. hehe.

truth
by Sabin ini`ve been thinking, a thread was put up about a month ago asking the question " why me?
basically why some of us find out ttatt while others are so blinded, good, sincere people that we love.
well after some consideration i have come to the conclusion that 1) some are in the truth 2) others want truth.

Very good point. I also think most who learn TTATT are very sincere honest people two. They know there is deep flaws and feel it's wrong that a so called religion can exploit many good people too!
