i was watching a tv show that made me think about why the witnesses insist on door-to-door work "in this age of mass communication," to quote jesus christ superstar.
did they not have a radio station at one time?
i remember hearing about it and about the dj becoming too popular so he was axed.

the gilead letter was read last night at the meeting, i had to listen in as they have reinstated my phone line, whatever.. so anywho the service overseer gave the part and he said that jehovah's organization is moving so fast that even what they have printed just a few months ago is now old and they just received a letter from the fs that was to be read tonight from the fs!.
the way he read it, he made it very exciting and like jehovah's chosen religion is moving so fast that it can hardly keep up and the letter was just proof.
the way this elder read the letter it made it sound like the married couples school is going to be so wonderful that it would suppress gilead in wonderfulness.. the elder doing the part then went on and on about how our educational programs are so much, much better than anything out in satan's world.
Perhaps the WTBTS should train them to Occupy People homes until they convert to JW's.

with the discontinuation of the gilead school and the quote from wtbts saying that they are much less industrial now and more administrative, wouldn't it make since to sell this property as well?.
what good is it now?
a whole infrastructure in one location dedicated to education that takes place in 3-4 classrooms and is on the decline?.

These classes could be handled in the new location or at Wallkill with much less cost.
There you go Watchtower; free consultation.
babtised publishers.
this is the number of baptized individuals who partake in the preaching work worldwide.
does this total represent the number of all preachers on earth?
Those old service reports were actually softer than most commercial toilet paper in public restrooms.
Good point.....

They would like to continue to do it but those imaginary square roots keep showing up in the math......

Babtised Publishers. This is the number of baptized individuals who partake in the preaching work worldwide. Does this total represent the number of all preachers on earth? Not necessarily. A number of factors-including past religious beliefs or even mental or emotional imbalance-might cause some to assume mistakenly that they have the ability to teach. We thus have noway of knowing the exact number of publishers on earth; nor do we need to know. The Governing Body does not keep a list of all true witnesses, for it will not maintain from this year forward, a global report of the preaching activity. Aug. 15, 2012 WT pg. 22
Comment: It won't be long!
ok. the good news is that my wife has eased up on the whole "talking it out with the elders" thing.
she now insists that she is doing her"own independent research with unbiased materials" on some subjects.
unbiased?
Tell him you will go to dinner with him at a fancy restaurant. Then send in a "working girl" to sit with him and take some pictures.

as time rolls on the boomer generation is increasing at a rapid rate.
most countries are ill prepared for this coming explosion of seniors!.
does this ring a bell with you?
In our area a lot of out-of-area dubs come here to hide from the spouse and they of course are encouraged to sign-up for anything and everything.
There are no jobs here, so they are entirely reliant upon others to fill their needs.
Many of the dubs talk amoungst themselves about their "wink" health problems.
We had one that moved in and tried faking a back injury. She put on the full front, cane and all.
The insurance company sent out a tail to take some pictures etc. They caught her doing some pretty heavy lifting for someone with a claim of complete disability.
Needless to say she magically recovered and even joked about not getting any benefits around others. (The audience was friendly)
It is a real problem with an uneducated, non-trade oriented membership as the WTBTS has.

When my FIL decided to report me to the Sentinels, one of them called.
I called him back, and told him that I would me with him and him alone over a beer at a locale bar.
He declined and said that two bros. needed to meet with me.
I declined and said that the only, meeting I would have would be with him over a beer.
He declined and that has been that for sometime.
