i know it's has been mentioned before but my 2$ worth.iam sure if they (j.w.
) had listen to the music and song without knowing who published the new song book.they would say "this song book is awful with no end of criticism.
"also over 90% would agree and would not bat and eye.. knowing that the wbts published this (garbage) song book over 90% agree what a great song book.talk of brainwashed people.i can't stand the music, it sounds like some kindergarden kid is taking piano lessons.did they not rehearse.it is awful the the dough heads won't admit it.i say they will do a re-issue,revision 2 next year.. bob.
The worst part is that some of the old songs have one or two lines changed and it throws off just about everybody.
They could have kept the old and added new, or replace old with new, but this reworking of music and lyrics is too confusing.
It's just awful!
i am an ex jw and happy.
my sister is an ultra jw married to an elder.
my non jw grandfather just past away and my sister has said for the last 15 years that she wanted nothing to do with that side of my family including me and especially my grandfather.
Any scriptures or articles that may make her think about not taking the money will prompt
her to seek guidance from her congregation's elders, who will quickly tell her that she's
entitled to the money since there isn't anything legal saying she's not entitled to it.
Since when has the WTS turned down any money? Nope, the more she has the more
likelihood that some of it will go into their coffers.
hello jwners,.
inspired by a post from tuesday in this thread with this video i decided to go an look for myself, having not noticed this wt scandal before.. .

Well, I just don't get it... The owner by total shares has dedicated the Watchtower Society as
beneficiary but retains control of the shares and the voting privilege that comes with them.
So how is the Watchtower Society supposed to get rid of these shares? It can't sell them,
and the real owner is holding on to them.
Someone with better business savvy better explain what's going on because it seems like
the company owner is just trying to associate the WTS with the company whether they
want to or not.
What's really going on?

T.RonWood, you're really hillarious!
Rather... What if, you were telling us a bad joke, and no one really listened to you???
Sorry, but reading the post then looking at its peachy avatar with it's brain hanging out and
that absurd look in it's, uh-hum face-like part was just too much. Great-grand children? You
must not be a JW or you'd be thinking the Big A would have come sooner than that.
by your answers, i can tell you did not even read through it, or you did without using the eyes and ears given to you ..
Yeah, well the eyes and ears given you on your avatar really make you look laughable. It's
not so much your joke-blog but your holier than thou attitude that comes through on your
posts above. Go get a gravatar bud, it would do you some good, unless that's the way you
really look... Oh holy peachy-preachy one.

imagine that you are....an ex- [insert religious organization here].. you no longer believe in the hocus-pocus rituals and you can see that many stories from scripture have been twisted and mis-told.
you can see where agendas of power and control have been derrived from these teachings, using guilt and 'obligation to god' as a means of extortion of your time and money.. imagine that you suddenly lose your job; then you cannot pay the mortgage.
in the midst of all that you find out your child has a terminal illness and you have no health insurance.
Dear Cameo-(religio-paranoi)-d
Like Jesus said, wherever the corpse is there the eagle/vultures would gather.
Do you agree?

he said he had not met adam ballard for a number of years.
adam also conveyed the details and accused me of raping him in navan and other places.
it was also supposed to have happened in some woods.
The allegations are just soooo weird, that the elders must have had some dislike of the accused to
go to the point of defaming him without much proof.
In this board there's often a complaint about the two person rule the Society came up with in cases
of sexual abuse etc. But... in this case it seems these two elders went the other way and with little
but the story (incredibly strange story) of one person proceeded to defame another JW.
What's your take on the story... is it good to have two witnesses before making a big inquiry or
should someone be persecuted and accused on every strange hear-say that comes along.
Maybe some people actually believe to be true happenings whatever they themselves
conjured up in their minds. Maybe there's some psychological reason. Maybe it's like in the
Salem Witch trials where people got accused and hanged on another persons word.
Maybe the article is too long to interest anyone else on JWN to read it fully then comment.
Thanks MinisterAmos for your reply post.
