always knew this would happen, CA's are a waste of everyone's time , the apathy that is poisoning the R&F is clear to see even with the idiots of the GB, in a few years time I doubt you will even see many more RC's the aged ever decreasing population have been rinsed of $$$$$$$,the golden goose isnt laying any more golden eggs anymore, austerity for the distant never ending future, who'd have thought that a business based on a 1950's model could possibly have problems in the 21st century? LOL the guy who just flung wire coat hangers in a bin for 50 odd years at HQ and was paid a pittance that needed food,water and a roof over his head and healthcare is really biting them on their stupid butts! turned out that slave labour was far more expensive then they ever thought.

District Assemblies now being held at Circuit Assembly locations?
by ShirleyW ini haven't been to a kh in decades, so i get the google alerts for jws and i got one featuring a local news channel in brooklyn covering the assembly being held in flatbush, brooklyn.
i'm sure that venue is where the circuit assemblies are usually held, keeping in mind it's summer and that's when the district assemblies are being held.
why are they acting like they're so strapped for cash and now holding district assemblies in circuit assemblies locations ?.

I'm sure Wacko Jacko and Prince greased enough of the GB's palms with $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to not make the blindest bit of difference. -

What JW habits do you still have?
by Exelder insince leaving the jw's after over 4 decades, i can see exactly what it is and hate everything it stands for.
however, there are still some jw habits and traits that i can't get rid of:.
1. i can't swear in general conversation (i'd have to be really angry).

like EverApostate I purposely do as many things that jw's hate as possible, I love to curse and swear and never leave an opportunity to do so, I also love to blaspheme, you cant beat a good old bit of blasphemy

"Blood Guilty"
by new boy inguilt is such a wonderful tool used by the jehovah’s witnesses.
one of the terms they love to use is the term “blood guilty.” they have actually used this term to guilt their members into doing more and more “house to house activity” yes, they have said on numerous occasions at their kingdom halls and other major gathering that a person “could be blood guilty” for not going out in the field service activity enough.
the reason is simple.

love it dont they, plus "sinning against the holy spirit" which I was accused of, the irony is that the WTS is guilty of both

It is now 2003.... Where is Armageddon?
by Nosferatu ini find it extremely amusing how each year is passing without armageddon.
"for the year 2000, i visualize a world transformed into a beautiful paradise!
but i don't think that either the present world or its rulers will live to see that day.. we are living in the last days of the system of things.

more possible KH closures/sell off London area
by jookbeard inabout the mid 1980's they purchased a large plot of land in an area called addington a suburb of south london to build a kh complex comprising of 3 kh's with the options to add further congs to each kh, basically each kh could house 3 congs so the complex could possibly house 9 congs, it was a huge vanity project for the uk branch, you'd hear stories of how these congs are bursting at the seams etc, i think at one stage one of the congs had over 200 publishers, it was a huge construction project even bigger than the ca hall they were building a few miles south.
fast forward to last night and i got chatting to a couple of jw's in my local pub, i knew one of the guys as i used to sometimes see him in the town, he's a nice pleasant guy and i didn't get into any doctrinal discussions just chatted generally about how life is as a jw these days and the changes going on world wide etc, i touched on the vast kh and branch sell offs going on and he mentions that the addington site is to be sold!
i was astounded, nothing confirmed yet and but the land is prime real estate for housing development, the uk branch must have been offered a deal they cant refuse..

That Paddington KH is steeped in jw UK history also Kramer, it was the very first Spanish speaking cong as well, they know full well with ludicrous property prices in London and the South East they would be stupid not to cash in, it is inevitable
