  LATEST NEWS: CANDANCE CONTI VERIDICT READY - WT LOST!!!!!!!

  by Viva la Vida in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm not an expert but that is my understanding of this: .

  opinion filed.. (signed published) the judgment against defendants on the negligence count is affirmed.

  the judgment against watchtower on the cause of action for punitive damages is reversed with directions to enter judgment for watchtower on punitive damages.

  So it remains $7M in compensatory damages, but the $21M is waived. Justice once again fails.

  thanks Sir82, missed that one...sorry.

  data-dog, In my opinion, chapters could be renamed to the following:

  
  A letter from seven mortal men
  1. The lost one I will shun and avoid, even if (s)he still lives in the territory
  2. You are never doing enough - more field service, more meetings, family study...until you burn out
  3. Are you stumbled? Jehovah uses imperfect men to run his perfect organization
  4. Did you give in to normal human longings or perhaps touch yourself - naughty, naughty
  5. Return to the Cult and face a Judicial Committee that will DF you swiftly

  What is the youngest age you know of being DF'd?

  by berrygerry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i doubt that nothing has greater impact then a person being df'd - reading the current thread.. i have known many kids df'd at 15, and many baptized at 10 or 11, but none df'd.. i would imagine that the minimum must be about 13.. any younger than 15?.

  On JWR, we have one poster who was baptized at 8 and DFed at 10 for apostasy (understanding evolution and questioning on the existence of God).

  The second youngest poster was baptized at 10 and DFed at 12.

  New "donation" arrangement begins to FAIL

  by Tech49 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so here we are, almost a year into the "new" congregation donation arrangement.

  and its beginning, as was predicted, to fail miserably, and to have direct negative consequences on the poor sheep.. let me give you a little experience, directly from our congregation of about 80 publishers.

  back in may, after reading the letter about the "new" arrangement, the elder body decided to "donate" the extra funds on hand to wt, as directed.

  The contempt of Anthony Morris: the face doesn't lie.

  by freemindfade in

  2. beliefs

  i have noticed something even long before even looking into ttatt, something about morris bothered me.

  i am personally very attuned to body language, facial expressions and general subtleties in human interaction.

  there was something about his face that really bothered me, and i will explain it.

  When you communicate:

  10% is WHAT you say

  20% is the TONE in which you speak

  70% is BODY LANGUAGE

  This is the variation posted a while back:

  Pixar the production company is jealous of Caleb and Sophia video's ///
  
  So said the CO last night.
  
  Apparently a JW was on a flight and just happend to sit next to some big wig from Pixar and when the man from Pixar heard that he was a JW the Pixar man just gushed over what great work that the Watchtower has done in producing the Caleb video's. He siad he only wished Pixar could do such great work. The CO said we are able to do it because we have free labor and Jehovah behind us.
  
  My husband stayed home from the meeting but wanted to tie in by phone and that is what the CO said in his talk.
  
  The CO also talked about all the changes that have happened in the last ten years and how if some of the friends did not like it they needed and to quote him "they just needed to get over it" these changes are going to happned period. Also some have been saying that some of the changes were to save money and that is not the case in the least.
  
  It just made me sick to listen to and I know there are those of you who are going to put me down for listening to the meeting so bring it on and slam me for it. I listened and that is that. I am kind of stuck in the middle with my husband still believing and I want to know what is happening because it still affects me.
  
  OK so now that, that is said, it just made me sick and my head hurts to know that everyone at the meeting was commenting saying how great the changes were and how happy they are for Jehovah speading up the work. The JW's who are in do not seem to be able to see the Wizard behind the curtain. And these are younger ones in the late 20's and 30's.
  
  I am just speachless and I just do not get how anyone can fall for all of this.
  
  LITS
  
  Also for those who do not know Pixar is the one who made such movies as Toy story 1 and 2, Finding Nemo, Mosters Inc, UP, Cars, etc but they are jealous of the Cabeb video. Yeh right!
