facebook was handle quite well actually - surprised!! Father and daughter routine, she on with her friends and friends of friends she did not really know, father explains danger of not knowing who she ws friending and suggested she should only deal with kids/people she knew personally and de-friend those she did not.. and ot to give away personal information.. father indicated technology can be useful if care taken..
generation change hooked in with "murmuring" about changes, not agreeing with the noo lite the FDS received from the holy spirit and that mostly it is contemporaries, so no need to worry when armageddon is coming, just know that it is close since Jesus spoke those words over 2000 years ago..
Of course porn, bad associations and education got hit.. WOMEN who looked outside the cong for a mate were DISOBEDIENT... a new DO gave the talk -- and of course, NO BROTHERS do that kind of thing -- they don't have to - a 60 year old man can have his pick of the litter from 30 and up - a sister is sunk -- and lonely and taking anti depressants and told to go pioneering to solve her problems....nOT TO MENTION - what about the sisters and her non truth hubby sitting in the audience, listening???their kids who would now have a different picture of their mother or father since they did not listen to the FDS??
Was I encouraged???? NO NO NO

Comments from a real JW about the killing of apostates watchtower. You will be shocked..
by Hairyhegoat inthis is a very good find from another jw only web site i have access to... hey i just found this on a link of my mom's that she is "friends" with, yes, still a jw...anyway, i had to copy/paste it so you could all see, thought it was a bit hilarious to see how they blatantly speak of keeping info from "outsiders.
" i did not copy the name of the person since that is not my point and i am not that disrespectful, but i did copy their comment...they were discussing the wt about killing all apostates and someone that was studying asked a question as to whether they all thought that was right or not, so here it is..............."james... although its a great article and very encouraging, as apostates do deserve to be murdered, it may not be such a good idea to reveal it our friend zeek at this moment.
he may find it a tad over the top.

Victoria, Australia: Report on Oct. 11th hearing involving Steven Unthank
by AndersonsInfo invictoria, australia: report on oct. 11th hearing involving steven unthank.
(this report is from an anonymous xjw who attended the hearing.
i had no plans to turn up to the court hearing as an observer, as in my experience, it can take several hearings and a number of months before any court case gets rolling.

Just a thought -
the society fought this for quite awhile according to what I read - does anyone know if some elders have been relieved of their status in Australia lately?
The reason I ask is that perhaps they stalled for time to rid themselves of those who may have issues .. any comments??

SURVEY: How many who are still "IN" are really out mentally (Do I need to put " S E X " in the Title to increase the number of hits on it?)
by DesirousOfChange inthere was quite a debate on another post about the increase/decrease throughout the wt history surrounding 1975 and subsequent time periods when ther have been major adjustments in doctrine.
it was said that the stasticis from 1965-1985 do not reflect a massive defection, despite the failure of the wt's prophecy for the end of the wicked system of things by 1975. .
i see the overlapping generation as another potention issue to cause fallout.

Didn't Jesus explain this in Matthew prior to Revelation being penned?
The WTBTS links Matt 24:7 and REV 6:6 with the red horse, but the first white horse is not referred to by the WTBTS as Anti-Christ. why not? Jesus gave the run down in Matthew what will happen and revelation spells it out clearly for us - especially since The Lamb, Jesus is the only one to open the scroll with one of the four living creatures doing his bidding and the creature says "Come" to each of the horsemen... Does Jesus look at himself? Then gets on the horse, it does not say that, instead, there is already a rider on the horse
Matt 24:4 and 5 -- many will mislead you saying " I am the Christ"-(can definitely be the white horse in Rev 6 :2 being the antichrist.. )
Matt 24:7 -wars --(second horse fiery color-at Rev 6:4 ( slaughter) followed with famine and disease = black horse at Rev 6:5. Famine and disease usually follows all the wars being fought
So I cant and do not follow the society's reasoning on this one at all.... religions are in turmoil today -with a lot saying their way is the way to Christ and listen to them - new age groups, etc...
Anyone going to the hall agree with this logic of mine??? Just asking to see if I am off base here

What is the average cost to build a new Kingdom Hall
by jworld ini was recently told that the average cost to build a new kingdom hall in the united states rural midwest region was $250,000.
i was shocked to say the least.
i remember when my childhood congregation built a new hall in 1989 for $60,000.

to build a house -- cost per sq ft is about 170.00 -250.00
in my area anyway- used to be 65.00 sq ft and that only 15 yrs ago -- cost of bldg materials are exorbitant now.. but removing the cost of employees,due to the volunteers, that should drop the numbers to at least 100.00 sq ft.. say a 3000 sq ft bldg - $3 million - thats only about a 60 x50 size
someone cld check the nbrs

Mouthy:
You were so happy to picket the assembly last weekend and excited that some folks listened to you.. just cause some do argue on the board, don't take it personally ... you don't know their mind set, maybe they are of the org and just trying to upset the applecart...life is like that, all you can do is try to placate some and laugh at others..
all the best and return soon
