That video from the elders being asked the question about why the memorial is still celebrated is very interesting and eye opening!

"Feeling sorry for yourself" about being hit by your husband is not Christian 2/15/12 WT Page 25 P 12
by yourmomma inhave anyone of you read, the absolutly jaw dropping paragraph in this article about a women who was hit by her husband?
its in page 25 of the 2/15/12 wt study edition (i read the dumbed down version).. .
if there was any question, that the watchtowers stance is for wives to simply take it when their husbands abuse them, this makes it crystal clear.. who the hell is scanning these things before they go to print?

Time to get this back out to the local agencies and news media, just wondering how one could get a network to look at something like this, maybe The View since one of them was a witness at one time?

Just a review of some of the stuff from the reasoning book on what makes a good marriage, of course looking at the headship items.....clean house, healthy meals etc...

Thanks for the bump, the upcoming wt study along with meetings like this weeks TMS where the issue of headship is reinforced really should awaken some as to the position of the society on women....but unfortunately it will not.

Mem invitations
by AnonJW ini have heard quite a few reports of how the invitation work has not been carried out as enthusiastically as it was last year.
during the 2011 campaign, many due to the reduced hour requirement pioneered for the month, some congregations had over 50% of its members doing this.
this year it has all changed, and even though some have made an extra effort, not nearly as many as did last year.

What still amazes me about the invitation is the way it starts with the 'how do you think of Jesus' and then continues with 'let us tell you'.

New Rumor: Downsizing Circuits/Assemblies

the borg is going to phase out big district assemblies - so they can fit 'em in assembly halls.. they will reduce the size of circuits.
they will synchronize c.o.

"laying off" even more people
Don't you mean providing them time to full time pioneer since we are in the last days?
As the printing industry continues in the downturn, unless they continue to change the way they solicit donations from the members, it will be all about real estate (build more KHs and assembly halls, then in essence flip the properties) and reduce the costs (smaller printed magazines that can still have the same suggested donation).

For those who think THEY are in financial problems

I agree with IDRNOMO. I think they are asset rich but cash poor
another good reason to reduce the size of the monthly mags, its all about cash flow when running a business (printing company). Ink suppliers, paper manufacturers, gas stations and maintenance folks for the printing presses all want to be paid. Yes there are costs associated with a server farm, but much less than the printed material.
