my old PO was a CO at a very young age, early 20's I think, became a special pioneer at 18 , left school at a ridiculously young age as well, didn't make him a very decent person though, he was a power mad idiot in all the years I knew him, a dangerous slimy snake.

I think the R&F will wake up soon to this scam, its no more than daylight robbery and fraud, how stupid do they think the R&F really are? especially appealing for funds that run into the £1000's for AH's they already own , the utility costs on any hall anywhere in the UK cant be more than a couple of hundred max for a one day event, thieving lying bastards.

Apostasy: The Movie - Directed by Daniel Kokotajlo
by darkspilver indaniel kokotajlo's new film apostasy has it's world premiere at the toronto international film festival in september 2017. apostasy.
family and faith come into conflict for two jehovah’s witness sisters in manchester, when one is condemned for fornication and the other pressured to shun her sibling.. this fresh, unadorned first feature from director dan kokotajlo carries an unmistakable note of authenticity from its very first scenes.
set in a jehovah's witness community in england, the film's strength and power lies in its directness.. apostasy depicts the growing rift in a family — a mother and two daughters — who are rigorously devoted to their religion.

by VW.org ini found a very convincing youtube video showing that jehovah of the old testament is satan and the god of the new testament is god the father.. https://youtu.be/-eyp4n0xkxk.

wouldn't disagree with any of the theories, but God(jehovah) the Devil (satan) are just as real as the tooth fairy, Sasquatch,Leprechauns and any other mythical beings/creatures

not going to happen, the group is far too apathetic for that to happen, it would seal their destruction even if the signal was given.

its so close you can almost smell the end, taste it, feel it, what did the deluded clown Morris say recently, "if you dont think we are close to the end you must have been in a coma for the last 10 years!"

Do They Still do Door-to-Door as Much as Before?
by cofty insince the advent of the trolleys do the majority of jws still go door to door like we used to?.
do they still have meetings for field service on sat mornings and sun afternoons where most head off to the local territory while one or two go to do trolley work or has the importance of door to door work reduced?.
with the reduction of printing wts and awakes what will they offer at the doors?.

P.E, a very good friend of mine when he was a pioneer used to head out at some ridiculously early time to witness to 24 hour filling station workers either by giving them a leaflet or a rag, seeing that 99.9% of London filling station workers are from the Indian subcontinent it can be guaranteed that not only do these guys have no idea who the hell these mad guys talking to them at three in the morning are even more certain that the placements will be slung in the trash,he was counting his time from say three in the morning and closing the same day after a meeting where he would have given talks etc or spoke with his studies in the KH etc thats about 19 hours for the day, he always used to get his time in easily.
