The End of Circuit Overseers
by scotsman inis indeed apparently nigh as another poster predicted along with the end of the weekly bs.
not sure when this should take place but i'm reliably informed by a family member that one of the uk's overseers was talking about it fairly recently.
reduced to weekend visits by an outside but local elder instead.. i have no further info..

Sunday's public talk...
by kzjw inwent with the wife this week for the public talk (i simply will not sit through the watchtower study), the subject was about how poorly governments are taking care of thier people in disasters.
the speaker(who had a british accent) started by saying "burma(myanmar) had 2 tsunamis and the government sent flat screen tv's as aid for the refugees..." needless to say this dillweed lost me for the next 30 minutes of his talk about how man can't care for god's people.
i left during the study as always and returned at the end of the meeting, still burning over the glaring lie told by this "brother" which by the way no one even batted an eye in the congregation!

Ha! I love the "I was using it as an example". So that makes up for a outright lie? You can go before a JDC and defend yourself by blatantly lying and it's OK?

by Sirona inok a couple of jws in my family have said this.. we were talking about usa politics and the comment was made "it doesn't matter who gets in....it will all result in the same outcome.
watch the lebanon!
" (jw gives a knowing look and emphasises the lebanon bit).

Bethelite: Elder burnout, R&F disillusionment led to book study change
by pseattle2 inplease visit the blog: http://governingbodyletters.blogspot.com/2008/05/bethelites-viewpoint-on-recent.html.
a bethelite's viewpoint on the recent organization changesto me the most obvious reason has nothing to do with control, or money.
it has everything to do with the serious shortage of qualified brothers who can (or who are willing to) be used.

JW's are always like 30 years behind main stream Christianity. It's just a natural progression. Because the Witnesses are not cut off completely from Society (and probably will never be) they will simply take on the outside worlds opinions on things much later.

Virtually all JWs have been taking blood fractions and don't know it!

Jehovies at work
by Wordly Andre inmy best friend chris, works as a supervisor for a construction company has some jehovies that work for him, the other day he was saying how he thinks that they take advantage of the fact that they need time off to go to meetings, and special events.
he goes on to tell me that they must leave early mondays, tuesdays, thursdays and fridays, also they never want to work weekends because of their service time.
i started laughing and told him that he should just fire them, because they are taking advantage of his kindness and that the jws do not have that many meetings.

Old people and the internet
by Burger Time ini just read a post where a 52 year old woman posted a huge diatribe about a certain subject....not a big deal but it was used with multiple sized fonts and well just plainly over sized.
i have noticed this is a problem with most older ones who post on the internet?
whats up with that?

As I used to tell my boss jokingly when he would say such things, "I'll never get old! I'll die first"....which lead to the paradox of, "well some teenagers think 25 is old". Also depending on the 40 year old I might enjoy being someone's supper for a night. ;)

Yea yea yea you brought us the internet! Whatevs!!! Haha as I stated before I didn't claim all older people were like this, just that it seems my parents generation and my friends parents generation is especially at risk for using tacky fonts. As stated before it's good to be young!!!
