I agree with the depressed soul. A totally convenient way to cover all the problems is to dress something up like the mid-week meeting. Very, very convenient.

Theocratic School changes a distraction from the problems?
by thedepressedsoul ini find the timing of the new mid week meeting rather strange.
we all know jw's love their carrot on the stick, they salivate over speculating what the new releases will be at the convention.
with all these problems going on, layoffs, child abuse, money issues, building halts etc... what better way to have your average jw ignore it than to completely change up the meeting.

The poignancy of that May 2015 broadcast was something off the charts. Directly asking for money by that guy. If the average JW doesn't think that something is wrong, they gotta wake up!! -

My Opinions on whats going on in WT land - Insider Information
by thedepressedsoul infirst off, i'd like to state that i currently have "privileges" in the congregation and volunteer at bethel on and off throughout the year.
that's as much information as i will currently give about myself.. starting off, i think something big is coming in the form of lawsuits and bad pr.
they seem to be batting down the hatches in preparation for something the last few years and even more so the last few months.

I've heard too that they could use an assembly hall to accommodate what's called a ''super large congregation''. -

Is Warwick still being built?
by Coded Logic indoes anyone know if this new freeze on all construction projects includes the new headquarters being built in warwick?.
if it does apply to it, then this really makes no sense whatsoever.
the society is poised to make hundreds of millions of dollars (perhaps even a billion) by selling the properties they currently occupy in brooklyn.

Yikes, just everything seems wrong here. I mean contrary to May 2014, about that new donation arrangement. Everyone was gung-ho about having all of their mortgages forgiven, but then to submit a mandatory lump sum each month to the Borg for eternity, for the extreme need of Kingdom halls. But then now to apparently suspend all work, except for the ivory tower in that of Warwick. Bad news. -

Any thoughts on the real reasons for droppng the 'school"
by sparrowdown inmy thoughts are.
1. they want to avoid being made to comply with any laws that come with anything classed as a "school" especially a school with children enrolled.. 2. the mid-week meeting has been dying in the ass for years and needs a revival.
i predict happy -clappy-sing-a-longs to be included in the program.. anyone else have any thoughts ??

I agree. I think the Ministry School could(was) a weak link, in a way. You could get some guy up there who could express his opinion on something causing people in the congregation to start thinking, or questioning things. -

unsettling this must be for the hard core ones in the Borg. Also very interesting.

My o my, all that tax free land for sale. It just begs one to wonder, where is all this money going. A congregational lump sum each month, from worldwide,yet still is not enough. wow. -

Well, one week to go until we see the jaw-dropping letter read. It has to be legit, it is all over Cedars website at jwsurey. After you watch his video, he mentions that he has a supposed contact in the Borg. If that is the case, it has to be someone really high-up, because you must be sure that only a mere handful of people know about this. WoW!!
