  Society Ditches Older Publications

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it has been reported that many of the older publications are being dumped.

  the watchtower bible and truck society have a long list of books, pamphlets and brochures that are no longer available either in print or in their data base on their web sight.

  of course the reason is that this books have a lot of old information that is incorrect, false prophecies, flip flops and a lot of "new light" that became old light.

  So the bound volumes are being tossed out too?

  As FedUpJW said above they're hiding the lie.

  You would think that would wake folks up about just what kind of religion is this, but probably won't do a thing.

  Shall we go back to calling people by their slave names because that’s what they were once called? That would be racist.

  Well, considering that the original slaves and their grandchildren, dare I include their great-grandchildren, but they're might be a few ones left, but, we can't go back to calling people by their slave names Minimus, because the folks that had those names are . . . . . DEAD !!!! You come up with the most inane things to prove your not the "R" word, kinda reminds me of Archie Bunker and I still enjoy watching those reruns! And like I said yesterday do your research on your Lord & Savior Drumpf, find out what his great great grand dads name was

  Shirley , we know you hate the President. You show your ignorance every time you can’t even properly spell his name.

  Min- since you're such a lover of Drumpf, I'm surprised you didn't know that I'm using the spelling of his name from generations back when his great grandfather changed the spelling of it and you have the nerve to say I'm showing ignorance when you don't know the history of current Lord and Savior, That's sad Min, very sad

  I think he’s a lot smarter than the last few presidents

  That statement alone says it all, you and Drumpf are on the same level of intelligence,

  Never in my wildest dream would I ever see one of those dog gone carts

  by Tameria2001 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i moved to where i'm currently living for 10 years now.

  once in a while, i would have jws come to my door and every single time either i or my husband would send them on their merry way, although my husband is quite rude about it.

  i'm not sure when the cart witnessing (or whatever it is called) started up, but the only time i ever heard about it was on the internet, or someone here talking about it.

  Come to NYC and visit some of the subway stations and you won't be able to escape them. Two or more right across from each other and at some stations they have tables set up with four or five people standing there. It reminds of the sisters who have a study with someone at their home, but she invites four or five other sisters to come with her so they can get an hours time in by just sitting around someone's dining table.

  JW trolleys - London

  by HB in

  2. experiences

  thought you might like to know that during a visit to london yesterday, the jw's were conspicuous by their complete absence.

  admittedly it was a tuesday in february, but myself and my ex jw friend thought we would see at least one or two trolleys in their usual haunts, but nothing.

  we checked out the area around westminster station where we have talked to jws before, but there was no sign.

  I see London has a lot to learn from New York City when it comes to the carts. In some subway stations here they have two or three (yes 3) carts in the same station right across from each other. The Bros across the pond need to fly across the pond and see how the preaching work is being done in NYC.

  When You Were A JW Did You Really Understand The Religion and What You Were Getting Into?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many witnesses in my opinion know nothing about the religion.

  they don’t understand the history, the doctrines or the bible.

  many people become jws because they were raised as witnesses so they take the plunge.

  Remember The Green Song Books

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  then new and improved purple song books that came out in 1966. then there was the brown song book and a even newer one in 2006. .

  thousands of hours wasted singing those stupid songs and their stupid lyrics.. song 106 "watch how we walk and watch we talk.

  i remember inserting different works in the lyrics to relive the boredom.

  You mention remembering the green songbook, which I do, but your list looks like it's either from the magenta or the brown book. Anyway, I remember the green book some songs I can think of right now are:

  Take Sides With Jehovah
  

  Dedication

  Rejoice

  Plus the one on Page 1, which was titled Hail HIm, which sounded straight out of a Baptist revival meeting, which is probably why they stopped using much when the green book was still out.
