I would be interested in knowing if the new compound was patterned after anything in the business world and if so with its location not too far from NYC I can see it getting sold at a huge profit to some corporation not too far in the future.

It just amazes me how my wife when asked about any change in the doctrine can respond that the GB is continually guiding the organization and things do change. I asked her if the bible has changed and she just sort of quizically looks at me.

BTTT / Marked topics
by Simon ini've noticed a lot of topics being bumped recently with "bttt" (back to the top) comments or "marked" as the reply.. i'd appreciate if people think twice before doing this.
simply forcing topics back to the top even though there is nothing to say on them is not helpful and negates the usefulness of having an active topics view.
if everyone did this with every topic they want to push then things would quickly deteriorate so i don't believe some should be allowed to do it for whatever reason.. by all means post new and relevent comments to a topic but short esp single-word non-comments that are simply used to push certain topics back to the top are likely to be interpreted as spam and removed or blocked if necessary.. .

I would concur with what AnnOMaly said, if it is important enough to bump something, an explanation of why the bump has been made would add some clarity and also may encourage additional discussion. I am thankful to many of the posters who have brought something back to the top because I may go days without being on here and it may be something I wanted to read, or should have read.

The WT as a bureacracy
by jgnat inhere's a quote from a health care change agent, which i think suits the wts very well.. no matter how innovative or entrepreneurial a firm might have been at its start, once it is has been in existence for some time and has an established place in the social economy, its goal in life is to persist.
it leaves the world of innovation, often loses its purpose, and exists solely to exist, i.e., to cover its costs.
often this is a reflection of the corporate hierarchy, where, sadly, leaders lose their sense of providing true value to their customers, intent instead on aggrandizing their own position and preserving their status.

I would agree the GB and the WTS are acting in survival mode, what needs to be done to continue to be an ongoing concern.

When dealing with my wife and her witness friends I keep thinking 'you can tell a JW but you can't tell them much'.

Contributions or Donations!
by Atlantis insome of the friends here have expressed the desire to send a contribution or donation after they have received a document from us.
while we really appreciate your kindness, we prefer that you send a gift to simon to maintain this board, or to barbara anderson.
we don't take donations or contributions.. every file we have is free, and we have never had a website to maintain.

Consider the "outcome" when elders apply the two-witness "rule"
by AndersonsInfo injehovahs witnesses two-witness rule is applied by elders when a witness member accuses another member of a sin, even if that sin is a criminal act.
if there arent two witnesses to the accusation, it goes nowhere, including not being reported to the authorities.
and in the case of an allegation of child abuse, the accused is free to molest again.. watchtower attorney, jim mccabe, recently stated this about jehovahs witnesses two-witness rule which he described as a bible-based belief :.

This is utterly disgusting, why it is not more broadly known is a travesty, guess it speaks to really how irrelavant the JWs really are, which does not make it any better for each of the victims.
