You are right Derek about the copyright... too many apostates could alter the docs if Joe Blow were posting his own copies of things. Doesn't forgive them for not publishing them on their own official site.

Matthew 25:40 - And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.'

Precisely Sunspot - much like the admonition not to distribute the WT CD-ROM to anyone but Witnesses. They need to keep control over who has that kind of resource.

Estee is on the right track - no hardcopy publications = no donation money from the average dub.

Life insurance is a different matter Cheech. I am talking about that nest-egg for 20 or 30 years down the road.
I can guarantee that most of the single mothers struggling to get by aren't putting aside anything, but that most elders are. Wonder how many got screwed in 1975 thinking they'd never hit retirement in 2000? Cleaning toilets and washing windows isn't very kind to the knees and joints of your average septugenarian.

I can attest that a significant number of elders I have asked in the last few years have sheepishly said "yes" they have retirement savings and contribute yearly (some in their late 30s and early 40s).

Some do not like to discuss doctrinal issues with Elders etc. when leaving the org or studying feeling inadequate.
I present for your consumption some very simple questions to ask that reveal motives and objectives to use in lieu of doctrinal debates. I have asked these many times and never get an answer. BTW I copied and pasted these from another post I made in another thread:
I would encourage people who think that the elders are rock-solid company men, to ask them the following questions:
1 - Do you have retirement savings (401K/RRSP)?
2 - Why do you save for retirement if the end of this system is right around the corner? Doesn't that show a lack of faith?
3 - Why isn't all of the literature published on the Internet if it is indeed life-saving material? Why publish printed magazines and other literature if electronic distribution would be cheaper for NA and Europe that have pervasive Internet access for the common man?
4 - If the publications are life-saving material passed down to God's Organization on earth from him, why would the WTS object to republication and vigourously defend their copyright?
These are very, very simple questions that have nothing at all to do with doctrine, and yet paint a pretty telling picture of what is actually going on.

is it only used in the old testament.

It's amazing that they even care considering how devoted they are to the Old Testament.

How did you find your job?
by JH inoften, i speak to people who seem to have good jobs.
when i ask how they got that job, then they tell me that finally it came down to good contacts.. many jobs i had were also because of good contacts.
naturally, having a college or university degree is what it takes, but having contacts seems to be what opens doors.. so, how did you find your job, with help from an influencial person, or all by yourself?
