That has been proven to be a false apostate rumor. One of many posted on this board. If you want a copy of the magazine call your local congregation. They will deliver them to your door.

If the nature of the event is theocratic i.e. last Saturday's memorial, it doesn't matter what literature you quote. Subjection to Jehovah is 1st. ("Respect Jehovah's Authority" dvd.) If the event is not theocratic you should write to the branch and inform them quoting the information presented here.

JW divorce rate higher than adverage - pew forum
by drew sagan inone statistic that i haven't seen talked about that was contained in the pew forum research poll was divorce rate.
i was kind of shocked to see that when it comes to the percentage of members who are divorce jw's pulled an extra 2% over the national average.
in this research poll only three groups come in higher than jws and two of them go under the categories of other christians & other faiths.

2007 peak JWs in the US was 1,084,005. Divide that by the research sampling of 215 and you get about .0198% of JWs. It will be interesting to see the full report. Pew has withheld some questions for further release.

The sampling for JW households was 215 with a +-7.5% margin of error. Question 18 is a good indication about the "quality" of the sampling. It asks "Would you describe yourself as a "born again" or evangelical Christian, or not? 17% of so-called JWs answered yes. (huh? Really, these people are JWs?) The marriage question asks "Are you currently married, living with a partner, divorced, separated, widowed, or have never been married?" 1% of so-called JWs answered they are living with a partner (huh?). Also, the questions does not ask if they became divorced as a JW, it simply asks about their CURRENT status. Oh and the "I know 5 JW couples that are divorced" statement is not research folks.

The letter didn't say you will need a username and password to download media files. Actually, the log-in page has been moved to allow for the front-page to be visible without logging in. You will be able to download without a username and password. The letter didn't say the two editions would be 'split'. All indications are they will be available. Otherwise we would have received instructions on how to obtain the Study edition. Well see in a few weeks.

All kingdom hall attendance is by invitation only. Obviously, everyone is invited. But if you disrupt the peace, your invitation will be revoked. All halls are private property. This is true for most building and homes. If you disturb the peace in a business, the owner has a right to remove you. The only building where you have a "right" to "demonstrate" are government buildings and public parks. Even then, you may need a permit. Sounds like the hall has experience past problems. I assume the sign was posted to remind visitors they are there by invitation.

If you don't want a visit from a publisher, in January you will all be able to download The Watchtower from jw.org. This will replace the CDs distributed to the members in the hall. You will be able to set up an online subscription service to download in MP3 or ACC format. Folks, there is no "members-only" or "secret Watchtower".

***** If you wish to obtain a copy of the WT Study edition, ask one of the elders to assign you to a personal magazine route and to please include the Study Edition. They will assign a publisher to deliver the magazines to your home. If you are disfellowshipped, go to the magazine counter. As long as you are not an outspoken apostate you will receive your copy. If the elders refuse, write to the branch. They will clarify the procedure with the local body of elders. There is no secrecy with the WT Study edition.***** *** km 7/04 p. 3 Question Box *** How should personal copies of The Watchtower and Awake! be obtained? If someone in your territory requests regular magazine delivery, please be sure to follow through promptly so that not even one issue is missed. Disfellowshipped persons may obtain the magazines or other literature for their personal use at the magazine and literature counter at the Kingdom Hall. Disfellowshipped persons should not be included on a personal magazine route.

The "flock" book is not "secret"... *** w94 1/15 p. 17 Shepherds and Sheep in a Theocracy *** Among such publications is the book “Pay Attention to Yourselves and to All the Flock,” which contains Scriptural guidelines and is provided for appointed congregation overseers, or elders
