  How to Endure Meetings Constructively - My Approach

  by Room 215 in

  1. forum
  2. tech-support

  i occasionally attend sunday meetings, either just for curiosity or to placate my dear wife.

  i've recently developed a method whereby i tune out all the proceedings from the platform and audience, and take to reading acts (i've just begun to learn a great deal about roman history via audio cds from the teaching company, which i listen to on my long commute to work).

  the lecturers on these all highly praise the accuracy of the book of acts and all the gospels in general, in terms of their accurate depiction of life in judea and the hellensitic kingdoms under roman rule.

  http://www.cnn.com/2008/world/asiapcf/07/18/pope.australia.sorry/index.html.

  cnn) -- pope benedict xvi on saturday offered his strongest public statement yet on sex abuse against minors by roman catholic priests, apologizing to victims and calling the abuse "evil.".

  pope benedict xvi apologized for the "pain" that sexually abusive clergy has caused.. more photos the apology came during a mass in sydney, australia, and expands on comments the pope made during an april visit to the united states, during which he publicly acknowledged the pain the church's sex abuse scandal has caused and met privately with abuse victims.. "indeed, i am deeply sorry for the pain and suffering the victims have endured and i assure them as their pastor that i too share in their suffering," he said saturday at sydney's st. mary's cathedral.. the comments came on the pope's third day of public appearances in australia, where he is attending world youth day.

  How the new "generation" study went down in the meeting today

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i made a big effort to get to the watchtower study today.

  i have not been to the meetings much for months, but i figured this was a pretty historic "study" and i wanted to see reactions and how it would go down locally.

  well a few things struck me as a bit odd in the study itself, and in the audience response as well.

  will any other governing body member - present or future - ever have as much impact as he did.

  will anyone else have enough strength of character, personal integrity and balls to step down and speak out?.
