Awake magazine 1973 The Dangers of playing Chess!! Why it's Evil.
by Witness 007 inawake 1973 3/22 p.12 "...the spirit of competion between players can lead to unplesant circumstances...most families manage to keep the conflicts that arise in games to the chess board.
but in some homes tensions linger long after checkmate.
chess has been a game of war since it originated...a play substitute for the art of war....a danger of stirring up competition with one another even developing hostility towards another, something the bible warns christians to avoid doing...what effect does chess have upon one?

It's no coincidence that this article appeared in 1973, when US interest in chess was growing after Bobby Fischer won the FIDE world championship. They had to counteract his role model, leading kids to spend so many hours studying and playing chess. Good Witness children should have been warning of the impending tribulation just two years away, not pursuing worldly competitions!

Do what is appropriate under local laws and company policies. Granted, you are in Australia where the laws will differ from ours...
In the US: (1) possessing "underage", i.e. child, pornography is a crime; (2) it would be appropriate for the employer to discipline (suspend or fire) an employee for policy violations, assuming there is a business-use-only policy for company equipment and internet usage, (3) the employer should present evidence of criminal acts to the police (you said that as part of your duties, you have legitimate access to what you found), because (4) knowingly witholding evidence of criminal activity from the authorities may make the company--and you!--liable for enabling the criminal acts to continue.
Give your findings to the company management, so they can take appropriate action. Forget about Bethel and the branches, it's time for this hypocrite to "Render unto to Caesar"!

Brotherdan seems like he really DID leave
by sabastious inhe was an interesting presence on this board.
he had integral knowledge about bethel and the like.

There was a noticable change of attitude after he left briefly and came back, before he left permanently. I want to think that change is because of the family situation, but as Shamus and others have said, we just don't know for sure. But that's no excuse for taking advantage of somebody who was honestly trying to help him.
Zid, Happy New Year to you, you righteous neo-polytheist!

WTS DECLARES WAR ON ORGANISED CRIME
by still wondering inunder gods government rutherford states that there shall be no more religionists, (except of course rutherford, there's an exception to every rule) no more politicians, no more gangsters.. .
yes, brave rutherford tells "the enemy", those nasty mean gangsters, they ought not to delay any longer but should close their operations even right now.. .
rutherford makes it clear that theres no room in gods kingdom for deceivers, extortionists and organizations that can only survive by blatantly and regularly threatening to make parents childless and/or threatening parents to make their kids orphans and that any day real soon now.. .

WTS ADVICE FOR YOUNG WOMEN WANTING TO MARRY
by still wondering inwait, speak to deborah first.. .
the upside of this approach is that deborah is a real woman and will be able to give you girls proper advice.. the downside is that you will either need to first find a top rate medium (shes been dead quite a while) or wait for rutherfords god to bring her back from the dead (which rutherford maintains will happen any day real soon now if not even before the convention ends).. you will easily recognise her as rutherford has thoughtfully printed a picture of her in the new and bang up to date children book.. unfortunately if you dont live in the usa you will need to telephone her, which thankfully has recently been invented.
expect to hang on the line a while as she will be very busy playing her agony aunt role for so many jws worldwide all seeking her advice, but rutherford says that it will be well worth the wait.. .

From the Watchtower dated 1 Nisan, 1NS (New System):
Dear brothers and sisters, welcome to the New System! We of the Faithful and Discrete Slave know how many of you have foregone marriage and family relations to dedicate yourself to lifesaving preaching work. For this, you have been awarded the privilege of surviving Armageddon to live in this wonderful New World!
Many of you have been looking forward to hearing from Barak, Deborah, Daniel, David and Moses and the other ancient worthies about how to choose a good spiritual mate with whom to spend eternity praising Jehovah. But such thoughts are going ahead of the spirit-directed organization. We bring you new light on how we are to live in this New System.
The holy spirit has revealed to us the meaning of a special passage of the Greek scriptures, written just for this day. In Matthew 22:30, we learn that "at the resurrection men and women do not marry." So not only will there be no more weddings, but all you who were married in the Old System are now scripturally divorced. Never again will lonely single persons be tempted to envy their married brothers and sisters. Isn't it wonderful how we have been given such loving provisions for this new system?
Let us all take advantage of the short time remaining to concentrate on the theocratic work of stacking cadavers into the bird feeders! There is no time to be slacking off, the end of the Thousand Year Reign will soon be upon us. The annointed overseers--remember, there are no more "elders" in this New System where nobody ever ages--will be giving each of you your assignments, under direction of the New System Governing Body. There is so much to left to do, and so little time, so set aside your picnic baskets and concentrate on Theocratic duties!
