...there are so many threads wondering "why the change to the meeting structure?".
why not ask the guys who made the change themselves?.
office of public information: (718) 560-5000. christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses: (845) 306-1100. wtb&ts: (845) 306-1000. i'm sure that anyone there would be more than happy to reply to a question of "i heard that you were dropping the private home book study and consolidating it with the ministry school and service meeting.

parents who shun their children when they are disfellowshipped.
do these people help to fulfill this scripture when you consider their actions in this area?
One elder's daughter I know of. He was a SUPER elder dub. His 20 somewhat daughter was df'd, his response when you asked of her was, " She's DEAD".

seems like the more contentious discussions on the board just go around and around the same tree.
those who have faith in god are delusional, simple minded, or even mentally ill...?.
those who don't believe in god are narrow minded, 2 dimensional, and are missing out on something great...?.
I sense another Us vs Them conflict erupting.........Time for that beer guys....

i think the loss of the book study will hit some like a death of a friend.
it will mark the end of an era.
it will forever change the religion of jehovah's witnesses and i believe the change is completely irreversible.. of course, most witnesses will be delighted by this.
For those few fortunate sisters, the book study that had no eligible/qualified brothers, this was their only hope of having any Authority or semblance of responsibility in the borg. My mother waaaay back in the 50's conducted the BS in our home, complete with DOILY. She really enjoyed that time in her career as a jw.
I told my son about this change yesterday, he hadn't heard of it, duh, JWD , We heard!! I didn't tell him I got it here as he is still very much IN. He said how he read the Wt at the hall sunday, yahoo. Anyways, I don't think the ramifications had started to sink in at the time. More later I guess.

this recipe will rock your socks.
i had a samll poker party a few weeks ago with the guys from my bowling team.
one of them, ron , i think he might be gay, that's ok, he's a great guy, brought over a mason jar with something that looked like urine in it.
Low-key......Fine booze is in the taste buds of those that THINK it's Fine booze. I agree that Everclear is just booze, however, Apple Pie Turd is a unique expierence. Step over here to the wild side for a moment friend. LMAO Just a turd indeed!!!???
I suppose then that you HAVE sampled Everclear???? Smells terrible and I wouldn't drink it stright myself. I have drank just about everything WORTH drinking. I myself enjoy my booze.

Oh, I am saving the Apple Pie for a festive occasion. Like maybe Friday night. Saturday night. Any night, I guess. They're all pretty festive to me.
Take care

So, MOMZ! How did I KNOW that YOU would appear on my thread?? HUH? HUH? Go figure. Oh, and CHEERS to you and MR Crown Royale.

in some workplaces, colleagues are actively discouraged or even forbidden to socialize.
what is the rationale behind this?.
for centuries, the roman church has discouraged priests and nuns from having "particular" friends.
Pant wettingly good fun !!! I love that! How many times did you actually hear or see someone have a rip roaring time? And, when they did, EVERYONE looked to see who it was that was actually having a GOOD TIME!
