  Yeah, my husband stayed there for weeks on end doing the security system. We went to the grand opening ceremony.
  I found all the architects plans for it the other day in a filing cabinet upstairs, along with minutes of meetings they had during the build.
  Shame I haven't got a scanner.

  That's sad. Such a twisted view.
  What ridiculous examples of showing goodness!!
  Makes me angry, sad, nauseous (and relieved that my kids haven't got to listen to this any more), all at the same time.

  there were gasps after watching this.

  i heard the anti college talks at the dc this year, and while many people i know didnt agree with them, this following video stunned many of them.

  there are many people on this forum, many have gotten to where they are many different ways.

  I was encouraged by my parents and cong. members to drop out of school and pioneer before even taking basic 'O' levels. (After all, the end was so close!) So I did, and was highly praised by everyone, even on an assembly platform by our CO.
  So I left school in 1985 with no formal qualifications, although I was extremely bright at school and was encouraged by my teachers to sit exams early.
  Since leaving this brainwashing cult, I decided to become a nurse and had to study and sit exams as a busy wife and mother.
  The end STILL hasn't arrived and all that pioneering and avoiding college did me the world of good, didn't it? I'm now an APOSTATE!!!
  It makes me so mad that youngsters are being fed this crap.
  And the suicide illustration!!???!!!

  don't know if already posted , but august 2008 kingdom ministry gives details on 2008/9 assemblies.

  it also confirms that the cos will be in place for at least the next service year as it refers to them taking assembly parts on both the spec day & the assembly.. special day theme is "keep watching the ministry - that you fulfill it" (col 4:17) lots of fs related parts - symposiums on how young & old find fulfillment in the ministry etc , interviews with youths , kids & old folks.. ca theme is "keep conquering the evil with good.

  " includes a symposium on "stand firm against the devil's crafty acts" - "help us identify & reject sly machinations of the devil in the fields of technology , entertainment & eduction.".

  Hi ernie,
  Welcome!
  Thanks for the info. I'm a bit confused over the CO thing. Are they doing away with them or not?
  I've been off the site for a while, so I've missed a load of news. I'll try and catch up.

  Thanks for all your hard work in scanning this, TJ (Master Member!!)
  I'll show it to my fellow 'apostate' teenage daughters; it will put them off ever returning to that bizarre religion.

  Hi Serotonin Wraith,
  I tried to ask my mum this question years ago when I first examined the evidence for myself. She didn't really answer the question, just kept going on about trusting Jehovah and his org. etc.
  
  I enjoy studying evolution now. I can't believe how I used to argue creation/evolution with people at the doors when I knew absolutely nothing about it!!
