solomon alluded to it yesterday in a thread, i found the online large print pdfs here, not sure where the regular version is yet.
here are the full paragraphs, grab your barf bags .
19 on the other hand, if you choose the path of resentment.
I hope my elderly JW mother doesn't read this.
If she does, she'll probably stop calling my DFed brother to discuss the "necessary family business" of his latest hangnail or her sore back.
At least it's SOME contact, but It's pretty sad. Health issues. That's about it.

Thanks sickandtired and Blondie for the info.
I guess the next time I rub shoulders with a well-connected JW, I'll ask if there's any "new news" from the Big House.

Has anyone received any further confirmation of this?
I almost brought it up at an extended-family dinner recently, but opted not to, since I couldn't very well say I heard it at the annual meeting. Nor do I any longer get the inside scoop (very often) from insider types who would have attended.

there has been some interest recently about the moyle case, and how it may have set a precident in what became the society's disfellowshipping policy.
in july 1939, the chief legal counsel of the watchtower bible & tract society, olin r. moyle, resigned from his position in a protest over conditions at bethel and rutherford's mistreatment of workers.
he did not want to continue living under those conditions and he felt he could effect positive change for his brothers by taking such a stand.
Marking. Thanks so much Leo.

this past week randy was hospitalized.
he is now home recovering and has asked me to let you know that he will need a couple of days to recuperate.
in the mean time: if you have sent him emails or want to send him an email, it might take a couple of days for him to respond.. feel free to leave messages here for him.
Get well soon, Randy!

i thought maybe some of us might enjoy something light-hearted to start the week off.
at dinner last night my teenage son reminded me of the last kh meeting he attended with me about a year ago.
he is a big fan of christopher hitchins and self-identifies as an atheist.
Thanks for the kind words everyone. Glad you enjoyed it.
I'm not sure why, but our kids seem pretty well adjusted around folks of all ages in spite of whatever damage being raised in the cult may have done to them.
I'll pass on all the LOLs to Torn In Two Son.

It's been quite a while since I've gotten misty-eyed at work.
Thank you Wes & Stacey for sharing this so beautifully.
