Hello! Is there a list of WTS changes since 1995?
by Mr. Ted ina young friend told me about this discussion forum.
i completely "stopped" being a jw around 1995. i was wondering if there is a succinct list -- somewhere on-line -- of changes/events that the wts has gone through in the last 12 years?
i haven't received any of the publications or really spoken with any jws in many years.

Elders supposed contact DF&DA once every year???!!!???
by Quotes ini was speaking to my mom on the phone yesterday, and despite my trying to avoid it, we got to talking about wacky jw topics -- again.
actually, it was nearly unavoidable, since she had just returned from her summer convention.
aside: nice way to celebrate your wedding anniversary, mom & dad; at an assembly!

I have never been contacted since I left. Not in the door to door work, not ever.
It was my understanding that they were supposed to check in on you once a year, but the way they keep changing they're minds, anything's possible.
Of course, they'd never contact you quotes - how dare you quote directly from WTBTS bullsh*t material! I'm so pissed right now I feel like suing you too!

by Quester55 ini can no longer be among the ranks of the whining, complaining and naysayers who do not vote in our national elections.
what individuals choose to do according to free will is their own business.

Hi Mr. Ted,
Be happy to start the list - beware, it's BIG!
1) No more bookstudy as of this January. It's done.
2) Watchtowers are printed for the general public, and a seperate version for the rank and file -
3) I don't know if this happened around '95, but magazines are not sold - it's by donation only.
I'll let others fill you in. It's quite a list!

WT Cult Evolution Over Last 10 Years
by Farkel inhe thought long and hard before he said he didn't think so, but he did think they were a high control group.
now those of you who know alan are aware that he knows more about the wt religion than everyone in bethel (including the gb) put together.
that was ten years ago, but look what has happened since.. about 8 years ago alanf was making a business trip to new york city and he asked me if i wanted a copy of the wt cd rom.

Ten signs you are in a cult.
I used to think that the dubs were just a high-control group. Now, I'm not so sure.

Our Ruined Harvest
by freydi inhttp://www.grist.org/comments/food/2008/06/13/ snip .
as corn and soy fields drown in rainwater, the food crisis deepens .
here in the united states, we grow 44 percent of the world's corn crop, and 38 percent of its soy.

Wow! You know there's a food shortage when someone from Saskatchewan makes the news. Even if it is Potash Corp.
Now they're talking about oil prices about $120 a barrel, and food prices to go way up.
I guess we just have to see. Another factor is the hurricane season - if it disrupts fuel production.
Everything is relative - we just have to wait and see, I guess.
