It immediately stuck out when I read his comments. I was fairly suprised the term was used.

Did anyone else get somewhat offended by the term "rank and file" that the WT attorney used.
by life is to short ini was just surprised by that term being used by jim mccabe when he said "jonathan kendrick was not a leader or a pastor, he was just a rank-and-file member.".
i thought that was only an apostate term and also what a put down to us lowly members.
we are just a rank-and-file person.

How would you like it if Jehovah took a vacation from you?
by irondork infrom the platform: when encouraging school-age children to use their summer, and adults to use their secular vacations for pioneering, we were asked, how would you like it if jehovah took a vacation from you?.
w/82 5/15 zealous parents produce missionaries p.11.
we were brought up in a happy theocratic home where our parents helped us to love and live the truth.

why, the district convention is three days of Spiritual Refreshment ™!
It is its own mini-vacation! And dont forget to wear your meeting clothes when traveling the day before and on the way back!!

When we take a vacation, do we make sure to still attend meetings? sd-7, we take a vacation from the WORLD, not from Jehovah.

Here's one I heard in field service: the angels from the Bible were actually robots made by aliens. The householder thought the angels had feelings, but the demons were older, inferior models made without emotions. This guy thought the Bible was some sort of alien alegory.

An empty suitcase kept under my bed for when 'the government comes and takes you away during persecution.' This was before I even went to school.

That it. When I listened to the DC (on like 2.25x speed) one of the demos was of the CO and a brother talking about it. He was all like, I thought watchtower.org was the main site. And the CO was like, "yo dawg, you're not keeping up with the chariot bro". And the brother hung his head, and said "tru dat, I'm so bad fo shizzle". the CO then said "Well dawg, you know now that the societay is using jw.org as the main website for it's presence on da webs". "so when you is out talkin to the mofos dat u study wit you need to make sho dat dey respect their spiritual mutha by goin and feedin on her spiritual milk baggies at jw.org"

Did You Watch The Waltons?
by snowbird inif so, did you enjoy the show?.
i loved it.
missed quite a few episodes due to attending kh meetings, but i'm making up for that.. the show reminds me so of growing up in a large family, having to share everything, and looking out for each other..

Shows that were popular, but on Thursday nights (customary long meeting night) included The Waltons, Welcome Back Kotter, Barney Miller, Chico and the Man, Mork and Mindy, Benson, Buck Rogers, Magnum PI, Simon and Simon, Diffrent Strokes...by the mid 80s most people had a VCR and could now record what you would have otherwise missed on meeting nights. A miracle!
Family was a regular over the air network show on ABC. It was far too worldly for us to watch.
Did any uber-dubs ever look down on you for recording TV shows on meeting nights? Some people used to ask if people who did this also arranged to record the meeting if they missed.

How Will The Watchtower Handle Disclosure?
by metatron infor me, the disclosure of ufo's as being real is just matter of time.
it's not a matter of any mayan calendar or galactic alignment.
it's simply the eventual outcome of increasing and increasingly bold ufo observations.

Paging Mr. Noory...Mr. George Noory...
I imagine that the Watchtower will simply talk about 'lying signs and wonders' from the demons and then just selfishly hold on to their thralls for as long as they can. Witness kids will catch on, though - they were brought up on StarWars and more. Years ago, a poster named "Prominent Bethelite" claimed that the WTS had a plan tucked away for just this scenario.
Seriously, though I have to read what this is all about.
