When I pioneered as a single sister I started my time at the first door and stopped my time at the last door. When I married another pioneer, he convinced me that we could start our time when we pulled out of the parking lot and stopped our time when we got home (even if we took multiple breaks, garage sales, shoe repair store, mall etc.)

Pioneers and Their Way of Counting "Time"
by Eiben Scrood inin the congregations in my area there was an expression to the effect that 'there's counting time and then there's the way pioneers count their time'.
the watchtower's guidelines were pretty strict on when time could be counted.
some pioneers followed it and others didn't.. on particularly motivated young man comes to mind, he would work full-time or close to it and pioneer.

SBC..."And there you have it, folks... the Watchtower Society's favorite demographics: the illiterate and the naive."
This statement is so true, one wonders whether to laugh or cry.

Last I heard we were a whisper away from the end. Now we are seconds away??? Does that make the end closer than a whisper or farther?

My heart skipped a couple of beats when I read through the program and realized I will be out enjoying life (i.e. riding my bike, swimming, fishing)instead of sitting on my ass for days listening to that mindless crap and eating bagged lunches and starchy dinners. Hmmm.....I wonder who will really have a healthier heart?

When exactly did the Bible Students fixate on the Jehovah name?
by james_woods ini thought i would start a thread on this in conjunction with the other one on the pronunciation and use of the "jehovah" name.. my premise is that the very early russellites, while being aware of the "jehovah" name, were not obsessed by it as are modern jws.. could some student of jw history again enlighten us (for the record) of how and when this "jehovah fixation" occurred in this religion?.

Not only did Rutherford want to distinguish himself from other Bible Study groups, but he wanted to distinguish himself from Russell.
I just finished 30 years a Watchtower Slave - Schnell spends some time on this very subject.

Crush any sign of adolescent happiness. It's better on the long run, they'll struggle less when we crush their happiness as adults

Corpusdei...Well done! I loved reading your comments. The original article has me scratching my head though. Wow! Just Wow! Talk about these poor JW teenagers being on the back of a turnip truck.
