There is a section in the Sept 2010 KM on giving Service meeting talks. It's broken down in the same way as outlined in Blondie's post. They are truly dumbing down everything.

Quality of Talks Deteriorating?
by ruruj inyears ago i know talks to be accurate, authoritative, corroborative and encouraging.. however, now that watchtower has change (including new light) tactics applied so extensively, things seem to be worsening instead of getting better.. the 45 minute talk is frequently discouraging and prone to inaccuracy in non-scriptural facts.
i hate to see the few means of jw secular education is done by careless misinformation.
it mostly attacks the world and sometimes reflects the overzealous opinions of the speaker; for example, demonizing entertainment and the internet.

Fading ain't for everyone. Maybe now is the time to bow out, cold turkey.

Should guys who are balding just shave it off?
by serenitynow! inspeaking as a lady, yes!.
i think a balding man has 2 options- 1. hair club for men 2. shave it.. balding men- not hot; bald- hot; bald with goatee- extremely hot!.
what do you think ladies?.

A shaved head is sooo sexy!!
A balding head can work on some guys; as long as it's neat, tapered.
Wigs, scalp dye, spray-on hair, hair plugs, toupees, comb-overs, comb-forwards.....not sexy!!

Is talking about the Trinity, Michael, prophecies, etc, boring...
by serenitynow! inmaybe because i was in so long, and "studied" so much it just got tiresome.
maybe because i no longer believe in god i can't be bothered with any of the things i was forced to "learn.
" having read comments of bona fide atheists, they sometimes seem to know more about the bible than christians.. does anyone else just have a lack of desire to try to understand those more complicated parts of the bible?.
-
sherah
Yes! Generally, i avoid these types of threads; heard all of the arguments before. Once the mystery behind god and the bible were removed, those topics became less interesting.
I'll read any thread on the 607 debacle; those are a riot. Celebrated scholars, circular reasoning, witty insults...totally makes my day.
