WTS/UN UPDATE - IMPORTANT
by hawkaw inthere has been some more progress on the united nations front and getting more evidence to you very nice people.. for your information i have located an ngo in toronto who houses a small library of quarterly reports that dpi sent to the various ngos.
this is my first time i have ever seen these and i will have them going back at least 10 plus years.
my previous ngo friends had offices in new york and thus, did not have these - nor was i aware i could get my hands on them.

VM44: Thanks so much for the text of those two articles!!!
Is there a link or an actual SCAN of these articles that I may have? I think at this point, JW's need to SEE that it came from THEIR OWN magazines, vs. what looks like an "apostate"...ooooohhhhhh : ) has typed in. Yes, I know that they can go look it up in their ancient copies of the WT that they more than likely have saved... but I'm just trying to save some time. If no one can provide this easily, then no problem... I'll use what VM's given here.
Another quick question... does anyone remember anything, anywhere, that was printed in terms of an EXPLANATION of why they did this? I know that many times they just "slip these changes by", KNOWING that the regular Joe in the congregation won't even blink...(maybe 'cos they're not really paying attention!) at these changes. Anyhow... any takers? VM: Thanks again. Jbean

I am wondering if anyone can scan in the copies of these 2 articles or tell me where to go to get them/provide a link. I don't have any CD roms or anything. This is important 'cos I promised someone I would prove that these questions were indeed changed... they don't believe me, that now people are baptized into an ORGANIZATION vs. to God, Christ and the Holy Spirit! It may be helpful so these folks could start their own journey out...
Any help asap would be appreciated. Thanks so much. Jbean

I had this discussion w/family members just yesterday! I feel as though they practically scream "...but then where do we go...?!" because they are like frightened children who find out they're parents just left them (or divorced, say)... all panicky and frightened. The organization has treated them and have MADE them behave as children for years and years (for some, all of their lives) and they don't have a CLUE as to what to do or how to live without it. Very sad indeed, but understandable. When I was asked that question yesterday, along with the usual "don't leave Jesus and he won't leave you" -type answer, I honestly said "I really don't know right now... I'm trying to find that out myself". There wasn't really any other way to answer them at the moment.

What would YOU do?
by Adam inthe california super lotto plus is up to $131 million.
our office has 35 people buying a single ticket together.
since the organizer picked the "cash now" option instead of the "over 20-years" one, there will be a stiff penalty.

I'd take the cash now option. How 'bout if I'm not around in 20 years (God forbid!) I'd pay off all my debt, including my mortgage, and pay off all of my immediate family's debt too. Then I'd sit back and take a deep breath, and then decide what to do with the rest! ; )
