  okay, i posted this in a thread that got locked and buried.

  since then i've been really busy and have overdosed on christmas music in the past week.

  so, i'm resurrecting this "holy day" holiday that most people will unknowingly be celebrating tomorrow.

  don't know if anyone else caught this subtle but malicious photo from the 12/13/15 wt study article.. not sure how to post pictures here, but the photo is on the website's copy of the article, just below paragraph 12:.

  http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20151015/give-us-more-faith/.

  note the 3 pictures in sequence tell a "story":.

  Apparently, Serena Williams isn't going to serve where the need is greater anytime soon. She gets to keep her dogs.

  Youths planning for the future leaflet

  by slimboyfat in

  does anyone remember around the tear 2000, maybe just before or after, there was a leaflet released at the summer convention aimed at teenagers called something like, "planning for a worthwhile future"?

  basically it argued that you shouldn't go to college or university and put your trust in "the world".

  instead you should trust in jehovah, pioneer and reach out for bethel or missionary service.

  'Nervous Breakdowns' at Bethel?! It happens more than the average 'rank and file' witness realizes.

  November Study WT "Train You Child to Love Going Door 2 Door"

  been catching up on some jw reading and found a gem in the november study wt in the first article, paragraph #11:.

  yet, you might look beyond the obvious and ask yourself, does my child enjoy the ministry or only the breaks?

  if you discern that the ministry could be more interesting or more rewarding for your children, set goals with them.

  Two new candidates for the Governing Body(tm)! With the craniums that these two have, they must be packing some huge mass of gray matter and intellectual capacity. If Tony Tight Pants were to meet them, I bet he'd say that these two are among the 'thinkingest' people on earth.

  "Nowhere in the Bible are we authorized to solicit money in Gods name." - Pastor Russell starting at about :57.

  Apparently, the current Governing Body(tm) has never seen the Photo Drama.
