I'd like to stay in touch with as many as I can.
I wish the information here would be available for a while.. i have found it to be very useful. I wonder if the information can be stored somewhere for reference?

okay the whole thing with 1914 still bugs the poop out of me.

okay the whole thing with 1914 still bugs the poop out of me. still trying to figure how one can still truly fall for the teachings. What do they teach about it today anyway? my actual question is about 1874. what if a jw would ask about the teaching about it and why they don't any more what would be done and said? would they call it new light, would the person get into trouble for asking. thank u

i have heard the revelation book is being studied for the 4th time since it's release in 1988. we studied it once before i left in 1992. is it the same edition or has it been revised a few times?

What happens if someone does have a book study at their house, would they be dis-fellowshiped? So, in 2009 it is a big no no to study watchtower material aka book study along with others in your home other then your immediate family? What if someone does want to drive 5, 10, or even 15 miles to a house to study together, they can't? Watchtower wants to be in charge of everything?

i haven't really been reading much of the board lately so i haven't been "keeping up".

i have a family member who stopped going to the meetings for awhile and it was so nice to finally see them part of the cult, then tonight they said i have to start going to the meetings again.

i was wondering, is there anything that is being said or taught lately that they think they are missing?

i am currious as to what the number talks mean.

i read a few posts that refer to "i had to do the # 2 talk" or " i had to do the # 4 talk" .

and why are people assigned/forced to do these?.

Thank you everyone for the info. someone stated this: "They must stand on the platform and give their speech. Sisters are not allowed to face the audience so they have another person act as the "householder" prospective target" what is that supposed to mean or do.. and why? Please don't say it has to do with women should be seen and not heard.

I roll my eye too. but I look away so they cannot see me. I shake my head in discust too. and all those other words mentiond too are also horrible. it feels like I am hearing a dirty word. I want so bad for this religion to go away. not because one or another is correct but because of the crap they put the people through and the people think it is okay. im still working on an essay or just info that I have gathered. I will post on my web site when ready. does anyone know what calls for grounds for wts to step in to have someone remove sections off their site? I will quote and site everything and I know law so I should be okay.
