German KM 09/07 Translated! Watchtower cracks down on study groups.

here is the best that i could do, but i think it gets the main points of the articles across.

i wouldn't bet my life on this translation, but i think it is good enough for our purposes.

question box.

If the masses continue to submit to this type of control and manipulation to hell with them. Like some one said earlier, be an adult and get out.

I am so glad I cut my loses and got the hell outta there with some of my sanity left.

Have you ever faked a service report?

by Orgull in

it's only my third day here so, go easy on me.

lol.. seriously, my new doubts have made it harder and harder to go in service.

a few months ago, when a new month rolled around, i realized that i hadn't actually gone in service at all the previous month.

I used to only report what I actually got. Pioneering, young and stupid. Some months only reported 30. The elders were all over my ass. My visibility was great. I could have put 90 down, no one would have questioned my time. I was out more than anyone. Life would have been alot easier not having to chase down those numbers.

That all changed with my young rebellious wife. She showed me the light. Time is just a number. We still send in fake time for political reasons, although we don't go.

you are much too harsh about the watchtower societysince you were, little we did our best to raise you.

you always received good.

grades in school; we always did our best to feed, clothe and give you every-.

Nulite

Hey Dude, at their next meeting wear a dracula costume w/fangs and all. Hand out candy to all the kids while drinking a 40 ounce, while groping all the sisters.

That way they can see that you are still normal.

any takers?

Nulite

In my old congregation one of our prominent pioneers was a drunk and didn't hide it. The elders knew. We had a alcohol problem period.

Is the information the same at all assemblies?

by I quit! in

jw
friends

the anti-school rhetoric was very strong, stronger than i've seen it in a decade.

one particularly galling interview took place with this 19-year-old girl who went against her parents' wishes for her to go to college, spurning the money that they'd saved for her out of their want--they were not a rich family but scrimped and saved enough to send their daughter to school anyways, obviously foregoing pleasures and comforts for her.

she "prayed to jehovah for a month.

Nulite

Depending on the part some hardliners can push the no--college agenda more. Some progressives will recommend supplemental education to like minded witnesses. As long as you are not dealing with a cookie cutter outline you always have some room for personal agenda. All conventions have outlines and some not--so outlines

did jesus set a pattern for large scale convention set up, when he basically had everyone come to the convention--3000 then 5000, but he would provide all the food.

just show up i will feed you.. it seems that was the pattern followed by the j-dubs for years.

then a few years back we all know what happened.

Theodore Jaracz was the keynote speaker at my convention...

by under_believer in

friends

we just had our convention at the memorial colosseum in portland, or.

good old teddyj was our keynote speaker.

i can tell you right now that the ol' boy's still alive and kicking.

Nulite

Thanks for the info. Bloviating, that's Teddy.

The district convention starting line-up: Teenager who happily turns down college. Wife and kids who don't understand until daddy beats their ass. Old huff with 10 diseases who never missses meeting or field service. 10 minute prayer. Kid or women in high heels who falls over balcony and or down 20 flights of steps. Strange worldly man being chased by the attendants. 500 pound baptism candidate. Chain of boring speakers. And the drama where the brothers can't wait their turn to perform in drag.

30 Minute Public Talk-CONFIRMED

by stillajwexelder in

i can confirm (as there seems to be some doubt) at the service meeting last night during the item about the new watchtower, a letter was read by the po.

the public talk is to be 30 minutes long.

this is to allow for more association and ministry.. lengthy negative introductions about the state of the system of things/deep last days etc are to be heavily curtailed.

Nulite

Hey stillajwexelder reveal your source. lol. I see your original post was on 7/18/07, very nice. I got off the phone with my source at bethel after morning worship on the 19th and posted right away. You evidently have a source in the service department. I thought my post was the first--wrong.

Dirty Field Service Moments

by saywhat29 in

jw
friends

hey everybody!.

i thought it would be fun to share some of your nasty/funniest/embarrassing/messed up/dirty field service stories- witnesses get off on driving around and sharing their stories with each other since... they usually have nothing else in common with the people they are driving around in field service with- but field service itself.. and you know i'm right, driving around listening to brother and sister so-and-so tell you about their amazing study.. who will never ever step inside of a kingdum hall in their lives (smart folks i have to say).

so here's one of mine- a favorite:.

I had a really good return visit that I thought was a black woman with really big hands. Turns out one day it forgot to shave. Freaked me out. I was like 18. The lover was a village people looking biker guy (white w/mustache). They were really cool people. Turns out the black guy was a transexual. Naked people at door stories happen all the time with my friends...
