3.Old Kingdom Halls will be sold (who defines which is old ? It sounds more like a pretext for selling off prime land)
What's the bet that those old halls will be the ones that aren't already owned by the WTBTS?

Punkofnice makes a good point about the home printing of literature. At some point the Org. will knuckle down on getting the publishers to print more from their personal computers. It has the potential of saving them huge amounts of money and to downsize Bethel offices.

It might not be related to any doctrinal changes but it could be begging for more money.

BOTR, although the WTBTS were barred from presenting a defence the WTBTS was found liable after a six day trial so I don't know where you get the idea that no-one has been found liable or guilty. That's not a question by the way, I wouldn't want you to send me a bill.

A new thread has been started advising of an ex JW podcast interview with the lawyer, Irwin Zalkin. It is excellant and will make everything clearer, the lawyer is very knowledgable, I would be surprised if there was a lawyer who could have gotton a better result. This is a very busy and highly sought after lawyer and he took time out for this interview.
http://www.jwpodcast.org/2014/11/03/s01e01-irwin-zalkin/
I think there couldn't be a better legal term for the Governing Body member, Garrit Losch in this instance. They identified him as being a managing agent. An agent is usually a third party and given that he is no longer a member of the WTBTS does not mean this wipes out any legal connection. Irwin Zalkin also identified the abuser as being an agent of the WTBTS also.

Has anyone actually read the study wt for sun nov 2nd????!!!
by stuckinarut2 ino m g...(yes that is a very childish reaction...but i couldn't think of a more appropriate expression!).
if you haven't yet read it...please do so..... it is so ridiculous!
so leading, so distorted, and full of "bait and switch" techniques.. "prove you have the truth"..by seeing how neutral witnesses were in war times?

Ah yes, Stuckinarut2, that is the whole purpose of the article. If the GB don't keep reminding the sheepie's that they are in the Truth then they will quickly forget that idea.

BTTT / Marked topics
by Simon ini've noticed a lot of topics being bumped recently with "bttt" (back to the top) comments or "marked" as the reply.. i'd appreciate if people think twice before doing this.
simply forcing topics back to the top even though there is nothing to say on them is not helpful and negates the usefulness of having an active topics view.
if everyone did this with every topic they want to push then things would quickly deteriorate so i don't believe some should be allowed to do it for whatever reason.. by all means post new and relevent comments to a topic but short esp single-word non-comments that are simply used to push certain topics back to the top are likely to be interpreted as spam and removed or blocked if necessary.. .

Another option is to put in a link on a current discussion to a relevant discussion from the past.
