I would add just plain lack of qualified people to do it . With higher cost of living people have to find more work to survive so not as much time left for it .

From reading WTBTS publications they claim that the catholic church called out the mafia on them at times , don't know all the facts on it tho. It seems today more are killed in third world countries than anything else .

What is the "world" we must not love?
by Awakened at Gilead injohn2:15-17)15 do not be loving either the world or the things in the world.
if anyone loves the world, the love of the father is not in him; 16 because everything in the worldthe desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the showy display of ones means of lifedoes not originate with the father, but originates with the world.
17 furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of god remains forever.. how do you understand this scripture after leaving jws?.

I think the world that God loved was his creation of man in a natural world , the world that John talks of is that of the satanic world that man and demons created for themselves the one that includes wealth and power that leads to greed and corruption .IMO

The Mighty Led Zeppelin Soars Again !!
by flipper ini know brent r. had a thread on this yesterday or day before , but in honor of my personal all-time favorite group, i had to write a few things here !
if some of you have seen the u-tube of them performing songs with john bonham's son jason on drums , it was an incredible performance !
watching their expertise on " stairway to heaven " and " kashmir " was like being back in high school again, like they never went away !

Gotta say that zeppelin is great . Jimmy page has got to be one of the worlds greatest guitarists of all time ,put that together with john paul jones and rober plant now I think you have a band . I always wondered with all the talent in the band why they went solo and didn't get a drummer until jason . I think every band in the world cuts their teeth on some zeppelin . I think everybody loves , over the hills and far away ,communication break down,immigrant song ,stairway to heaven,heart breaker,rock and roll ,song remains the same , achilles last stand. could go on but I think everybody gets it.

Taking apart the Memorial
by jgnat ina new poster inspired me to take a look at the memorial talk and the way that the witnesses honor (dishonor) jesus' memory.
i had mentioned that the form is, from this christian's point of view, an abomination.
the participant is encouraged to look and not partake.

I think when jesus said ,"keep doing this in remembrance of me , he was talking about the actual eating and drinking , not passing it around leaving it to be thrown out or consumed by the elders after the meeting .That's a WTBTS ritual not a christian one .It is a serious matter and the most holy day of the year for christians but the apostle Paul stated if you are not going to eat and drink then stay home .You can only discern for yourself your worthiness .
