London Ohio and Indianapolis Assemby Halls to be sold

by munchausen in

jw
friends

announce was made this week that the assembly halls in london, ohio and indianapolis indiana will be sold and a new 3000 seat assembly hall will be built in southwest ohio.

the assembly hall in london ohio was built in the 70's and is in fine shape - nothing wrong with it.

the new one will cost around 8-9 million.

The WTBTS will be asking for all members of the congregation

to make a least a one time donation for the construction of the

new assembly hall. Then at the circuit assemblies in the new

hall they will ask for more money for the loan to the Society.

In 15 years it will be paid off and not belong to the people who

contributed to it with money and free labor but the the WTBTS

( the bank ). Pretty slick. It is like going to the bank to borrow

money to build a house. You make payments for 15 years and

then when you have it paid off the house belongs not to you but to

the bank.

"In this system of things"

by Sour Grapes in

it just drives me freakin crazy when my wife and.

her friends say things like "well, in this system of things.

we will never be caught up in our work at home.

Sour Grapes

It just drives me freakin crazy when my wife and

her friends say things like "well, in this system of things

we will never be caught up in our work at home."

Or, "in this system of things we will always have

sickness and death."

Or, "in this system of things we will always have

bad weather."

This system of things is all we got, there ain't nothing

else out there. The Witlesses are so content about

living in a future fairy tell paradise that they fail to live the

only life they have.

80% of all web sites are pornagraphic

by Sour Grapes in

during today's witchtower study there was so much wisdom.

coming forth from the conductor and those in attendance that.

i could only say to myself "can't they hear what they are saying?".

Sour Grapes

When he said that 80% of the sites were pornagraphic I wondered if a roomful

of young Bethelite guys spent their evenings counting all of the porn sights

so that the Faithful Slave would know how many there were.

Of course the Faithful Slave is begining to demonize the internet.

The conductor said that 80% of all web sites are pornagraphic

and that for this reason many Witlesses are deciding not to have

the internet in their homes.

Another brother said that you can be on a safe web page and

then all of a sudden a pornagraphic web page just pops up.

Then someone chimmed in "that once you see that pornagraphic

picture it is burned into your brain and it could lead you to commit

fornication or adultry.

Is their faith so weak that if they see a naked girl that they have

to go and have sex with the next available partner? You would

think that being a true Christian that you would manifest the fruitage

of the spirit one of which is self control.

I am on the internet all day long and I have never had a pornagraphic

web page pop up. You have to go after it if you want it.

It is just so said to see how brain dead they are.

Here is a story told at the annual meeting……

You know how the society has been cutting costs, part time help, cutting back

on cd;s selling property etc... well , you know the famous WATCHTOWER

READ GODS WORD DAILY " sign is on one side of the place,,,, well ,,, on the

other side is a sign but also a clock which is lit at night! Well the G.B, decided

that it cost too much in electricity so they decided to turn it off! Now remember ,

this has been lit since forever as far as bethel goes. Well they got inundated

with phone calls and Emails telling them that the clock was dark and the lights

were out, The brothers would politely answer that yes they understood but that

they are cutting costs so decided to turn it off. WELL..... the MAYORS office

eventually p honed and said that THEY were inundated with calls objecting to

the clock being turned off , so when the brothers told them about the cost

cutting the mayor said....." We will have a man come over and put a meter on

that side and the City will pay for it!!!! .........WOW talk about a LANDMARK!!!!

JEHOVAH is amazing and truly awe inspiring!!!

setting is obviously in the "new system", i'd say quite some time after the big a. everything looks neat and clean, so it can't be just few months or even years after the big slaughter.. let me point out few things that made me laugh:.

every effort was made to depict natural materials, but you see leather straps with metal rivets holding the picnic basket lids.

Sour Grapes

They will import their clothes from China. Why don't they

show the inside of the pretty houses sitting on the hill sides?

Maybe because they will be not be using dish washers, refrigeratures,

electric or gas stoves. If there is electicity where are the power

plants with their large stock piles of coal? If there is gas who is going

to man the gas and oil wells?

It is all about counting hours.

by Sour Grapes in

the april km in the "question box" ask "how long should we.

study with a progressive bible student?".

it says that there are "two publications that need to be completed.

Sour Grapes

The April KM in the "Question Box" ask "how long should we

study with a progressive Bible student?"

It says that there are "two publications that need to be completed

"What does the Bible really teach? and "Keep yourselves in Gods

Love." This is true even if the student gets baptized before

finishing the books. After baptism we may continue to report the

time, a return visit and the study. If a publisher accompanies us

he may also count the time."

In reading this I wonder how a person who is going to start a

Bible study would feel realizing that the JW is going to clock in when

the study starts to count time? If the person is newley baptized they

no doubt are going from door to door. So on a cold Saturday

morning they are both going from door to door together, both counting

time and things are not going so good due to bad weather.

The witnesses says to the newly baptized person, "hey lets

go to your house and continue to finish the books and I can

cound my time. The newly baptized person says "is that fair

that you can stay punched in and I can't?" One could reason

"well since you are newly baptized JW publisher and you are

accompanying me to your study well then you might as well stay

punched in too and keep counting your time and that way it is a

win win for both of us."

How many hours a month are reported for Witnesses studying

with people who are already Witnesses who have not finished

both books?

Counting time for helping people learn the Bible is so absurd.

Howerver, I am sure that Jesus and his apostles counted their

time when they did their preaching.

Sour Grapes

I was reading the latest public Watchtower and

it was talking about Armageddon. The article

said that "soon God will destroy all of the wicked

and all those opposing God." Anyone who is not

a JW would not include themselves as God's targets

because they would not consider themselves as being

wicked or as opposing God. If the Watchtower printed

what it really meant ( God will destroy anyone who is

not a Jehovah's Witness ) then they would really be

seen for what they really are which is a cult.

I wish that the Witchtower would really print what

they mean and quit sugarcoating thier message.
