I was waiting for someone to post that clip from SNL, some things in that video certainly sound familiar and rings a bell about certain things in the Borg.

So I guess the little party they used to have after the weekly Book Study, although I don't think they did that every week, I think my mother said one week out the month they used to bring food, has now been extended to the Sunday meeting. -

One thing I noticed, I see the Memorial doesn't have people lined all around the wall and a whole lot of seats were empty,as a kid the KH was packed to the gills with people. I guess folks are getting hip to the the Dubs by watching Dateline or Nightline and reading about the child abuse cases.

A new low in public shaming (and groveling)
by Captain Schmideo2 ina local elderette at my former hall (the same type person who posts selfies while out in "service") posted this public admonishment.
the responses are so pathetic.
these are all adults, but they still act like scared children:.

That's why I have 3 FB's two of which I use for special occasions, like her post. I would've sent her a msg that said
"shut the F up you old hag sister, this is your presiding elder speaking"

The blood issue, now they can take blood fractions. Where does blood fractions come from? I would say that cotton fractions come from cotton and wood fractions come from wood. I think if they were sued by relatives that lost a family member that refused to take blood that would be so much bigger than the child abuse cases they're dealing with now.

How do you feel about religion as a whole?
by FatherFirst init just seems to me religion in general primarily makes truly bad people worse, not genuinly good people better; and in many cases has even made good people do bad things in the name of their religion.
just curious, a personal poll if you will.
what are you guys' current views on religion as a whole?

Any Letterman Fans
by berrygerry innot many shows left.. was a fan from his nbc days when he had a lot of innovation.. no question, he has a quick mind, which to me, is a key to comedy.. a distinct memory was awakening my poor pre-teen daughter when dave was back on the air after his heart surgery.. no matter what, is a changing of the guard (if only the wt could do the same)..

I've watched Letterman since his NBC days as well.
He still does the skits where he uses members of his staff, which I think are the lamest part of his show now, but I remember a skit he used to do during the NBC days with his wife Regina, who was then a member of the staff, something about her learning how to use a lathe properly.

What would happen if all or most of the Governing Body died in some kind of accident?
by Esse quam videri inwith the organization controlled, totally and completely by the governing body, what would the watchtower society do to hold it all together if all or most of the governing body were to die?.
would the legal department step in and issue orders?
would the rest of the gb quickly appoint new members?

Take subway to work? Count your time!
by ShirleyW ini was sitting next to a sister this evening who during the whole ride she had one of those plastic folders that holds the mags and pamphlets, she had both spanish and english and was holding the folder out in front of her until she got off the train.
i asked her if she was counting her time, she said yes (of course she asked how do i know about that).
she said it's not easy talking to the people in the station (seemed like she meant standing with the trolley or just the mags) because sometimes people say things that aren't nice, so she counts her time on her daily commute.

Didn't realize it was that easy to get that time in.
After if told her I was raised in the man made cult she was following, she said she doesn't follow man she follows Jehovah, I said where do you think all the rules and regulations come from within the Org? Of course she said Jehovah, I said it comes from 7 governing body members, but, she said there are just "5" GBM, are there just five now, or she was wrong?
