I'd be interested to know if he finally replies to you, perhaps you can give him a call and ask him the same question?

Possible Facebook blunder
by exwhyzee inso i made a couple of comments on my older brother's fb and i think i might have gone too far.. a little background.
my brother is a pretty popular guy... i am about a year younger than him and although we currently live on opposite coasts of the us., i know most of his jw friends.
he has about 600 fb friends and is on his page daily making announcements on there as if he's ashton kutcher talking to his fans....or something.

whats your opinion of your human resources department?
nowadays most companies, large or small, have an hr department.

HR - the Dept you never trust, this from an Administrative Assistant's point of view, that's the way we think when you guys come around the lurking/looking for trouble.

I think a lot of older (maybe younger ones) JW's are going to attempt/commit suicide....(READ)
by Joliette ini've been in lurkmode lately, but with the news that i heard about don cornelius dying, it had me thinking...as this world goes on, and people are coping with this world...i think a lot jw's are going to realize that the end of the world isnt coming...there gonna become more despert, the realities of having to work, pay off debts, etc.
a lot of jw's are going to realize that no magical sky daddy is come and 'take away there problems' and i think the more that they start to realize this, they get older, and there gonna start hating the reality that they have to face.
i had a good friend who's father-in- law (who was a ministrial servant) who had bipolar disorder, killed himself in his car back in 2007. it was sad.

The 2012 JW Survey is now online!
by cedars ini'm delighted to announce that the 2012 annual survey has now been launched and is ready to receive your votes!!.
please visit www.jwsurvey.org and give us your votes at the earliest opportunity.
this latest survey is obviously available to all those who voted in last year's survey, as well as to those who have never voted before.. so, what's different?.

Cedars - Is this the same document that you were inquiring about someone in NYC hand delivering to Bethel?
I'm sure you put a lot of time and effort into the survey, so, really wouldn't be realistic for anyone in Bethel to be interested in the results like we are here.

I love Scrabble and play against the robot, so I've noticed that the robot never gets the two blank squares and some of those words the robot gets away with sounds kinda suspect to me !

Suicide - How many do you know within the JWs
by Lady Lee inthw wts likes to play games with their statistics.
one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?
if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.
-
ShirleyW
It absolutely boggles the mind that if you seek help for depression or suicidal thoughts, the only counsel you will get from the elders is "go out in service more" or "pray more".
Sounds like some serious criminal charges should be filed, here, but I believe all religions are protected from that because it's assumed that you have the right to choose how you worship, but if you're a born in you really didn't have the chance.

Skeeter - You forgot to mention go on welfare, start taking drugs and drink heavily, start dating guys who get locked up on a regular basis, etc.
you're certain to get pregnant if you try any of the above.
