An important message from a PRACTICING Jehovah's witness
by Sparks inhi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!
i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.
i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

Never in all my years of being a JW did I hear congo picniks were "forbidden" kind of a dramatic word too, if you ask me. "My" cong just had one last month, and my former cong had one too.
What made you think that? Maybe regionally large get togethers are frowned upon, but that is a lot different than "forbidden"

Pixar the production company is jealous of Caleb and Sophia video's
by life is to short inso said the co last night.. apparently a jw was on a flight and just happend to sit next to some big wig from pixar and when the man from pixar heard that he was a jw the pixar man just gushed over what great work that the watchtower has done in producing the caleb video's.
he siad he only wished pixar could do such great work.
the co said we are able to do it because we have free labor and jehovah behind us.. my husband stayed home from the meeting but wanted to tie in by phone and that is what the co said in his talk.. the co also talked about all the changes that have happened in the last ten years and how if some of the friends did not like it they needed and to quote him "they just needed to get over it" these changes are going to happned period.

I thought this was a joke when I clicked on it...the fact that a DUB (a CO for that matter) even uttered these words is so unbelievably ridiculous. That's like saying that Robert DeNiro was a little jealous of the lead actor in the Drama this years. lol.
LITS, no worries...I can't believe you would worry about getting slammed for listening to a meeting. I am in the same boat as you! We all just do what we can. Thank you for posting this, it's always humerous to see just how delusional some JDUBS are.

Announcement to print from JW.ORG in service meeting
by suavojr inyes, you read that correctly.
last night during the service meeting, the cobe gave an announcement that we should start printing or using jw.org for any special literature such as the daily text, the yearly calendar, etc... he also mentioned to please cancel any orders of the wt and awake on cds because no one is picking them up and they are piling up.. .
my question is, where did this elder get this info from?

Interesting....Eventually the WT Study addition will be printed at home...& only 1 monthy version of 16 pg "Awake!" will be printed at WT branch. What an immense saviungs of $$$. The friday drama at the DC slyly hinted at older ones buying computers (this was subtle, but I did notice it) I say within 5 years, this will happen.
@WTWIZ....why print out all calendars through 2020, what if you spill someting oon them in the next 6 years.

RC's and IC's: Are buses the new profit center?
by zed is dead inlocally there was a very strong push for everybody to ride the bus to the international convention.
they discouraged driving to the stadium and were not as crazy about booking rooms through the society.
my guess is that they are getting a cut of the bus fares that they organize.

Not to hijack Zed's thread.
But re: the T-dome parking scandal. here is a link to a story written in a small local paper when that occured

(may have to copy and paste link)
I was also at the Seattle convention and echo the parking / traffic horror story!!!

My three days of hell summary - Part Two
by cookiemaster inokay guys, i wish i could have posted this earlier, but unfortunately, i didn't have the time.
anyway, as i've told you in my previous post, thursday, before reacting the convention site we visited a family of "apostates" from a group which separated itselft from the borg but is still doing the same dumb old shit the borg did many decades ago.
anyway, now let's talk about the convention in itself.

Thanks for your summary. I do remember them mentioning the photo drama of creation...but not in a comparison, as in vs. what the world has done. Had that wording been used I'm sure I would have caught something that ridiculous. Maybe in the Romanian outline the speaker got a little creative, or just worded it differently.
Yes, the videos are designed to pull at our emotions...I think from the WT standpoint, that addition is a stroke of mind maniputaing genious. Images combined with music work 1000% better than some old goat reading off of an outline. The emotion sticks with a person too.
It is strange that they had a meeting on the friday of the convention. That is definately not done in the U.S. Maybe that was just a local thing that they did for whatever reason. Strange! And sorry you had to deal with that after sitting through 5+ hrs of rahat !! ;-)
PS. Your english is excellent!

Leaving Quietly...your post was spot on. I am ashamed to say, during the ressurection video, I got the 'goosebumps'...it was weird. I guess just human emotion I can't control. I wish it were true, but alas...Yes, We flew in (went rogue, un-invited) we have family in the Seattle Tacoma area, and the PNW is one of my fav places. Will post more...
