Slave class mentioned Prophet in the closing speech at convention
by Gorbatchov ini did not believe my ears yesterday during the sunday closing speech at the convention, held by the branch coordinator.. the slave class was called "jehovah's prophet".
i know they claim not to be inspired directly.. but the term "prophet" is much more then "not inspired".
dictionary's discribe "prophet":.

My public talk on sunday
by mankkeli ini am currently preparing for the public talk on sunday and as i was looking through the outline some these thoughts just keep popping up my mind that in the face of several allegations and numerous scandal, wbts has not stopped claiming to be god's organisation, i am wondering if they will ever realise that their strategies are no longer appealing to the general public.
regrettably, they keep on publishing and printing using victims of mind control hazards to the detriment of over 7 million rank and file members and spiritual illiterates in the society.
i keep on pondering on how long this malicious activity would continue.

15 years ago I did public talks also when I was reading Raymond Franz ((: I tried to merge the Ray & WTS information. Difficult job, and I didn't like it at all.
One time I had writers block. A few years earlyer I got a box with cassettes / recordings of talks from a Gilead elder. I made a transcript of a very nice public talk and nobody mentioned I just made a copy of someone elses public talk. I even got many compliments... What a joke!

The Slave class was called "Jehovah's prophet". This is new to me. I know they claim not to be inspired directly.
But the term "prophet" is much more then "not inspired". Dictionary's discribe "prophet":
In religion, a prophet, from the Greek word προφ?της profitis meaning "foreteller", is an individual who is claimed to have been contacted by the supernatural or the divine, and serves as an intermediary with humanity, delivering this newfound knowledge from the supernatural entity to other people.
I know the Branch coordinator in our country does not add words in a speech. He is an old man, very loyal to the Brooklyn boys.
Conclusion could be that the Governing Body is taking more power and wants to end the "not inspired" label.
Did somebody hear this at other conventions too?

Sad: when all the inspiration is gone
by Gorbatchov in6 million witness (except me) went with the convention leaflet house to house to inform the people about the big question mark: the toe of the image of nebukadnezar.. it took very much millions of hours to spread the leaflet worldwide.. at the end of the sunday part of the convention, the big news was unfold:.
nothing new, 4th time since 1970 that big news about the toe was exposed by the old wise man at adams street, brooklyn.. curent part of the leg of the image (us/uk) will be the worldpower when the big a is coming.. it's sad, it's sad, it's a sad sad situation, but this is what realy happened at the education commite:.

Brother Creative: "Lets use a big question mark!"
Chariman: "We have no uncurtainty! We are clear about everyting".
Brother Funny Fix & Repair: "I see chances!
Chairman: "Since we send you to Harvard, you only see chances."
Brother Funny Fix & Repair: "Use a canard. Suggest new light but don't present it".

Yes JimmyPage, you are right. The normal things in family life are presented like a danger.
The family worship evening has become a hugh status. Things are not running ok. How is your family worship evening?
Things are running bad? Brother, you have to reduce your working hours! Pioneer! Just like younger days!
Evolution lessons at High School? You know that Jehovah made everything like it is! Simple.
I was shocked to see how brother Wrong was thinking. His reasoning, was so simple. Every problem was the problem of "The system of things".
He is an everage sample of the thinking level of JW's (including me sometimes!!).
Applause!!! Applause!!! Shit, pain in my hands.

The drama seems to be realistic, because many of JW family's look like, but are not perfect and a family head has to do something.
But this was shocking. Shortening workhours of dad, less shop till your drop for mum and girl and hang the music in the tree's for little boy.
After every part many JW applaused their hands in pieces.
When I noticed this I had to laugh, even when I had so many sad feelings, the observers view...

"The Disfellowshipped Are Dead To Us"
by dontplaceliterature ini had a conversation with a friend previously mentioned on this forum.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/206541/1/dinner-with-one-of-my-best-and-most-liberal-jw-friends.
we were speaking about a mutual friend who was disfellowshipped, and i mentioned that i missed them and wondered if they were okay because it wasn't like disfellowshipped people were dead to us...and he immediately responded "oh yes they are!".
this is really out of his character to say.

assemblies and my lovely wife
by stillin ini finally put a couple of pieces together that have boggled me for years.. i would take my family to the conventions and assemblies and for some reason, my wife would always be upset or start an argument in the car on the way home, or in the week that follows.
i realize now that her frustration is that i am not the guy in the demonstrations.
you know, the guy who has the bestfriend/elder who always says the perfect thing and the guy is so humble and does this little talks-to-himself thing where he reveals his deep spirituality and applies the ever-so-wise words of his friend and after that life is just great again!.

The demonstrations at conventions are these days crazy. Not realistic at all. So I'm only frustrated at conventions because I drive an old car and don't own a big mercedes, BMW or volvo SUV, last year there were even 2 Hummers at the parking of the convention. Brother corporate parked just his car there!
