I wonder why they are getting rid of so many songs.. after all, there are 225 songs in the current songbook and in the new one there will be much less.. are those removed ones all composed/written by persons who are now ex-jws or whats going on?

The young ones are leaving in droves!!!
by 1914BS ini hear that many congos are loosing all their young dubs and now only very old dubs are left.
it seems the jws religion is dying out because there are no youngins to replace the aging ms/elder/cos .
the young dubs are very internet savy and would rather play warcraft than go out in the field circus.. i remember a wt study article a couple of years ago that was entitled" when a young person rebels" or something like that - anyone know that mag?.

Someone wrote: In my experience the yoof are just getting better at playing the game. They stay in name only to keep family and friends but have zero interest in "privileges", pioneering etc.
I think this is definitely happening in my area. No new MS's coming up, most of the young guys could not care less.

Andersonsinfo question: Who wrote them?
by TheOldHippie insince you have taken so much time in answering questions and commenting, i ask one more question:.
could you elaborate on who wrote certain books and brochures etc.?
i know you have written about articles you have contributed to, and also that coc lists the authors of some of the books, but do you remember at least some authors of some books / brochures / special articles?.

Andersinfo: Swingle - Sydlik - Fekel - Jackson
by TheOldHippie insince you've known quite a few of the gb members etc., and mentioned that when jaracz entered a room, sydlik would leave, i'd like to ask you about sydlik - what was your impression of him?
it seems he was sort of a reformist without enough power, but i've also read that some say he had a less glamorous role at the 1980 events?.
and then swingle, of whom i've heard nothing but nice things - your impression?.

I met Loesch once at an international convention. I remember everyone around him was thanking him for his "wonderful talk" (which was quite boring actually, absolutely nothing new there and he is not a good speaker anyway) and I just wanted to run away from the scene (or ask why dont you get rid of that 1914 already...)

Oh and I might add that it would be really interesting to hear about Ed Dunlap, too.

Yes that Panorama was sooo awful.. I wonder how many Jw who saw that was shocked about his behaviour. He sounded so cold and then just walked cowardly away.

WTS, Faithful Slave or Evil Slave?
by mindmelda indoes the wts fit the description of the evil slave in jesus parable?.
i'd like to see everyone that cares to discuss that.
sometimes when i read that parable, it occurs to me that maybe it's the wts that better fits the description of the evil slave, the one who beat his brothers, abused them.

When they are beating their brothers because these brothers dont believe in all of their interpretations about prophecy etc by kicking them out of the congregation, then they are pretty evil imo.
