I agree with PSac. Leave it to Fox to rip this winter out of the greater global context.
Does anyone on this board deny global warming? If so, on what basis? (other than Fox News)...

i just heard that the hall my husband is going to will combine with four other congregations to rent a building and have a mega memorial.
i just do not get why.. it is gong to cost each hall about $275.00 a total of over 1000.00. the parking at the building they are going to rent in horrible and the building is in a bad part of town.
the owners of this building have been trying to push its use in our city and the inside is very nice.
@RubaDub,
When I lived in FL, we held memorial observances in local schools too. Five or six congregations would go in on it... it was common.
Thanks,

pick them right up, watchtower's latest products, and as always, targeted to the right crowd... .
for the regular baptizee and pioneer:.
for new ones and elders:.
LOL!!!! I have to mark this thread. That's great!
I like that there are many ex-elders and ex-bethelites on this forum.
i've seen several posts relating to the mood among longtime jws here recently.
i thought i would add to that collection and recount a discussion i recently had with my dad and a small group of folks about his age.
quick background on the group:.

..., and while i usually contribute in a thread that's already been created, i thought this particular topic might warrant it's own.. like many of you, on friday i was persusing the "concerned elder speaks" thread about higher-ed and the gb's ross/rachel relationship with it, and a couple of posts caught my eye:.
room 215 - "that's it, boys; alienate the remaining elders, drive them to resign and exacerbate the shortage already underway.".
baltar447 - "it's like they want fewer elders and servants.".
This is actually a really good thread. Marking for reference...
Thanks!
i had a request for documentation of the watchtower societys statements regarding the year 1975. so, ive put these files up for downloading from a filesharing service.
the first file contains the complete text of 3 issues of awake!
26-35 (file is 12 mb):.
Awesome. Will help a lot. Marking...
for those who have not seen it, i have posted my copy of the program for the 2010 kingdom ministry school for elders onto my blog.

our jw contact sent us the " witness only " wt's again and i just had to make a thread on this mind numbing article.
starting on pg.22 in the jan.15th it deals with " coping with discouragement ".
it seems lots of jw's are under intense stress these days ( can you blame them ?

i just ran across an old aquaintance who is a former missionary (along with his wife) - although i think they just went to serve in s.america on their own, not gilead endorsed.
they live in the las vegas area now, and are promoting a new mlm company called 'kaching kaching' (look for it on youtube, pretty cheesy) wactching them on these videos saying things like "do you want a piece of the multi billion dollar pie???
" just blows me away.. i can't help but wonder if they are even still active.
@ Gregor:
I don't want to profit from it, after all, I would lose 2 million dollars ... I just want to watch the ensuing chaos :)
