Latest WT: Reduction in branch offices is "visible proof" that Christ is "breaking down human barriers"
by cedars inas has already been mentioned, the december 15th watchtower (study edition) is now online and available for download on this link.. i couldn't help but smile at the concluding comments of the final study article on page 28 where it had this to say:.
"the very concept of foreigner has already lost much of its meaning among jehovahs witnesses, who pay little attention to the nationality of those in their midst.
recently, for example, several of their smaller branch offices were merged to simplify the work of oversight and to improve efficiency in accomplishing the preaching of the good news of the kingdom.

Should Dub's seen doing street witnessing be shot on sight to put them out of their misery?
by darth frosty inworking downtown today and i just saw two groups of jw's doing street work.
the 1st pair was a coupla young brothers who reminded me of myself when i was young and dumb.. the 2nd set was a couple older brothers (guessing 30 or 40's) doing the green mile walk of death.
i mean these 2 cats were walking at speeds reserved for those 73 and older.

I was driving and slowed my speed down to observe their reactions as they passed 2 approaching pedestrians. The 1st was a woman on the heavy side...they did not say anything to her.
The 2nd I could see was another woman who I did not think they were going to talk to, than one of the brothers turned and I am guessing began to make a preasentation. As I got closer I fully understood why he chose to talk to her (shorty was mad cute.)
I continued on my way but could not help but reflect MY GAWD WHAT A WASTE OF ONES LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Even after reading Crisis of Conscience, one thing (at least) still puzzled me
by kepler init was several years back and from time to time i will look something up in the index.
all manner of things about jw life are revealed - as well as discussions within the leadership, plus historical and contemporary controversies - but there is still something i missed.. please excuse me if this is not a detailed summary.
when the drum roll starts for the purge, it appears that the friends and associates of ray franz are targeted first.

Can the Borg close down a Kingdom Hall because of low attendance?
by Heartofaboy inthe land for our hall was given to the congregation by a local brother.. the contribution box was overflowing with gifts of money from the brothers & sisters in the congregation when they knew we were going to have our 'own' hall at last.. we built it ourselves with help from brothers & sisters that donated their time & skills.
we had a small loan from the borg to help us finish the project & this was paid off very quickly.. that must be 25 years ago now.. we were told by circuit overseers we would be blessed if we had our own hall & that the fine witness would bring many people in to the 'truth'.. it didn't.. we were never a big congregation, however when attendance went down to below 30 a couple of years ago, the circuit overseers wanted to close the hall down.. the elders protested & the hall is still being used.. can the borg close down a kingdom hall they haven't built & keep the proceeds?.
why doesn't it belong to the people that paid for it?.

As answered yes they can.
Also they will close a KH if the congregations can not afford their KH remodeling scam
I know of 3 halls here in detroit (in poorer neighborhoods) that were shuttered when the RBC came thru and suggested a remodel to them.

HUH?!?
After a wheat stalk sprouts and matures, the fruit it produces is not little wheat stalks, but new seed. So the fruitage that successful Christians produce is, not necessarily new disciples, but the many-fold duplication
of Kingdom seed-our expressions about the Kingdom.WTF is this spose' to mean?!?

I dropped a great one on a dub the other day. Was getting my oil changed and on the Today show they were talking about Tom Cruise scientolgy and all that crap. This lady sitting next to me was shaking her head and remarked 'that religion is a mess!'
I corrected her "ALL religions are a mess!" while noticing the WT (kool aide version) in her lap. she ask if I am familiar with the JW's I tell her I served at bethel. She gets all bright eyed and ask what hall I go to?
I get my big kool-aide smile on my face and tell her proudly I do not attend the KH no more! She says 'Oh you are disfellowshiped? Than I drop this jewel on her:
NO! Why would you automatically think the worse of me?
OH ya'll should've seen the look on her face! she starts stammering and back pedaling so I let her off the hook and say its ok its like a conditioned response programed into you! ;-)

If thats the friend you talked/posted about in the past its the response you should have expected.
A long time ago I realized there is no fraternization with witnesses. My wife after 5 years is finally starting to figure that out.
Not to sound cold (but my name is frosty) JWs are brainwashed and you just dont know when that ticking time bomb of JW conditioning is going to kick in. Live your life enjoy you BF and tell us about some great trips and your learning experience at uni.
