  Try the local library or college/university library. Even if they don't have it, you maybe able to utilize inter-library loan.

  Time for me to bid goodbye for a season.

  by LouBelle in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i joined this site a good few years ago for the support it offered, and i received an overwhelming response, questions to my answers, suggestions on which books to read, life advice.

  i then fizzled out for about a year and proceeded to become an active member later on and again it was great, finally got to actually meet someone from here, which was great, he'll be a friend for life, i have had lost friends *dansk i remember you with fondness still*, have seen drama unfold, but i think that time has rolled around once more.. the season has changed and it's time for to say my cheerios.. .

  thank you to all that have been so wonderful.

  Notes from my Judicial Committee (I was DF'ed at the end)

  by notverylikely in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  these are the details of my disfellowshipping.

  the names and locations have been changed to protect the innocent and the guilty.

  my errors are not hidden in an attempt to make me look better, this simply is a presentation of the facts that led up to the disfellowshipping and a re-telling of the contents of the meeting.. .

  The jist of this article is that anger is not a human reaction, it's worldly, satanic and brings reproach on the Borg.

  All of the examples were BS and insult the intelligence of the reader. Thanks Blondie for the comments, great job as always.

  Did you ever have the Elders check out a prospective marriage mate 4U?

  by Open mind in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  or, to your knowledge, did anyone ever make any inquiries of your local elders as to your "spiritual health" and suitability for courtship?.

  how'd that work out for you?.

  Checking in with the elders about a prospect is highly recommended in my area. Not availing yourself to this 'provision' is seen as being unspiritual.

  Quality of Talks Deteriorating?

  by ruruj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  years 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.

  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.
