Looking For A Job?
by Outaservice init appears there was recently found a major source of oil (1.7 trillion barrels) in calgary, canada.
if you 'google' in 'oil sands, calgary canada) you can read about it.
i heard from a cousin who is going there that they need welders real bad and are offering a $5000.00 signing bonus, plus a wage of $150.00 per hour.. there is probably other job openings there too.

Shunned by the congregation for not performing
by truthseeker inas many of you know, i am a witness who still attends for the sake of my wife.
my meeting attendance has dropped to about 50% and i make maybe 1 hour a month in field service, although i report more than this to keep the elder's off my back.. after several months of this, the result has been noticeable.. those who used to be friendly and greet me no longer do so.
some even avoid me.

From Cyberguy's post...
What you describe happened to me after I “slowed down.” Then, after I stopped going to meetings, an elder came by my house and said I should return to God and to meetings so that I can have “limited association.” “Limited association?” What is that supposed to mean? No thanks! I’ll find friends elsewhere. I don't need that kind of "association."
Nobody can put the "ass" in "association" like a JW.

What do you think is behind the watchtower change in 2008 ?
by 5go ini think it's an atempt to catch faders or atleast make active dubs feel special.
it also could be a cost cutting measure to though.
getting rid of the km's and even up awakes and watchtowers would save some trees.

Awake prints about 34,000,000 per issue. I'm guessing that would be 34 million per month or 16 million every other week. I imagine Watchtowers are also printed in the same every other week amount. Watchtower Corp will be able to print about 8 million of the insider Watchtowers and save millions of dollars.
I also expect the congregation secretary to review JW placements and crack down on excess magazines that never get placed.

That's What I'M Talkin' About!
by Farkel incall me a curmudgeon.
there are just some expressions in today's vernacular that are just idiotic, and "that's what i'm talkin' about" is one of these.
it is so ghetto.. several people are saying 'blah, blah, blah, de blah and more de blah..." suddenly, a dimwit in the group hears something that dimwit didn't even mention but happens to like the subject and then dimwit blurts out, "now that is what i'm talkin' about!".

i can hear the discussion in dubland now....

Well the Dubs can always fall back on their "Peace and Security" card.
Which is it, Destruction of the Planet is upon us or "Peace and Security" that will cause Armageddon? I keep getting confused on this point.

Anyone Remember me?
by ScoobySnax inwell do you?
and what do you remember....... i got something to tell you........... ;-)

J-G and Scooby,
It could be argued that even if Watchtower changed its views on homosexuality, which view is "God's Truth?" Did they have "God's Truth" before the change of opinion or after the change? Why would God allow something to be called "The Truth" when it is a Lie?
This could be argued for any position Watchtower takes and later changes.
I don't see how anybody can look at the facts and say they have God's backing. What a person must do is seperate the twisted man-made orginization from the good people within.

Seeker4, I don't have an Awake in front of me, but web sources say the circulation is 34,267,000.
I'm betting half of the 34 million never leave a JW's house.
