  Is this true?

  the verdict is in!.

  almost all of the anti-jehovah's witness organization have been completely quiet about the arrest and detention of the person in denmark who posted on the "yourselves and to all of the flock", and the society's other secret documents, in violation of international copyright laws.

  Congregation had to relocate Memorial...thanks to me

  by Shepherd Book in

  2. experiences

  so, the two local congregations were planning to hold their memorial together at 7:30 at the local community center, but they had to make a last-minute change to their own hall, and i'm pretty sure it was because of me.. let me explain.... at work on monday afternoon, a co-worker returned from her lunchbreak and showed me the memorial invitation that was waiitng in her door when she went home for lunch.

  i noticed the sticker on the back indicated the memorial was being held, not at the local hall, but at the community center.

  from a past (non-jw) event i attended there, i knew they didn't allow alcohol (unless you pay for security guards), so i wrote to the center's coordinator:.

  Well i for one am delighted they had to move, remember they moved of their own choice. The memorial is nothing but a waste of time, and am glad that i no longer attend.

  what exactly is an independent mind, from WT pov?

  by cptkirk in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  is this just basically another way to say, we dislike the fact that we aren't able to control you as easily as we would like to?

  or is there actually some precept which reflects this notion somewhere?

  obviously from their pov if you say that you believe in the trinity, that is independent from their pov, but they would never even get to that because you would already be df'ed for apostasy.

  My thoughts and observations re: the Memorial

  by 144001 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  while sitting through my annual visit to a kingdom hall tonight, i had the following thoughts/observations:.

  1. the speaker appealed to the kids: "how many here are 15 years of age or younger?

  " he then went on to tell us how exciting it would be to "lie down" with lions that eat straw instead of flesh, and further discussed jw kids napping with leopards, bears, and cattle.

  Memorial trauma-morial!

  by Julia Orwell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  haven't been to the kh in a couple of weeks but went to the memorial along with hubby because i'm still in the early stages of my fade.. the speaker gave a really nice talk which was divided into 4 parts: why we need ransom, how it benefits us, who should partake and how to keep benefiting.

  i was ok with the first 2 parts cuz he backed up with scriptures.

  then the part about who should partake departed from scripture and went into this convoluted thing about how although jesus died for us, we're not to partake because jesus didn't make a covenant with us so we don't partake.
