McCart, I don't seem to have any problem casting a spell over my husband, it's when he casts one over me that I run into a bit of trouble.

Jehovah's Witnesses Latest Music video advice picking a marriage mate

It must be very hard to watch clips like this for the middle aged sister or even a younger one who have no prospects of marrying a brother because there are none availabe. There was another clip in a very recent video telling single sisters to be happy with their lot.
There would be many sisters watching this latest video desperately wishing that they could, at the very least, have a choice.
Once again, the org manages to put the spotlight on an unattainable dream for many. They must feel so depressed.

He wouldn't have wanted to put the talk off until next week, the bread would be stale by then, another week and it would be mouldy. The bread will spoil all on its own. -

Exactly where is the expansion?
by NeverKnew inthere is a thread that i'm really enjoying discussing the consolidation of congregations into existing kingdom halls.
i'm realizing that the only threads that have spoken of building were related to branch offices.
we know the wts's consolidations and reopening a are a shell game of sorts but i'm wondering... is anyone seeing an increase in kingdom halls in their part of the world?

The 'work is speeding up' could mean any number of things but it probably means that since there is no money allocated to do anything the number of projects that need doing are increasingly stockpiling. -

For the purpose of the illustration it was not necessary to dress two men in pretty bow ties then say they are not really waiters but are from the writing department. Something is very fishy about this. It could be that the GB helper wanted to make it known that they have their own lackeys or that the writing department are really the ones in control (and just look at the stupid things they can do). -

Pandora's Box is now open!
by pandorasbox1914 inhi everyone, i have been lurking for some time now and decided to open the box (hence pandora).
about a year ago i became aware of child abuse within the org, out of curiosity (just like pandora) i opened the box and the evils have been pouring out ever since regarding the org.
anyway, this came to a head last summer with the arc.

Hi Pandora, I wonder what surprises you've stored in that box of yours? Oh dear, I hope this doesn't get an R rating. -

Interesting point TheFadingAlbatros. Even the use of garlic powder makes no sense as it is often used in one way or another on bread here in Australia and other countries. -

The three loaves represented 3 people, he turns them around and they're actually half a loaf. The 2nd loaf, which committed a serious sin was likened to dipping it in mud. For it to become clean, he cut off the bad bit and threw it into the bin, leaving a quarter of half a loaf. I guess that means that loaf has three chances left.
The third loaf was 'grieving the HS' and he represented this by adding more garlic powder over it and could be removed by dusting it off or 'readjusted thinking'. This garlic powder had been added to all three loaves and represented imperfection, if the additional powder could be dusted off from the third loaf, couldn't the original dusting of imperfection on all three loaves also be removed by the same method?
The thing is that the whole discussion was about three groups of sin. As imperfect humans, every one of us are going to commit, time and time again, the third type of sins, that is grievance against the HS.
By getting JWs used to accepting such stupid made up examples that make little sense, it makes it easier for them to interpret biblical parables into nonsense where the average JW just accepts what they say without thinking, such as the FDS.

Great comparison Gorbi. Your link doesn't take me directly to your post about the Swedish Chef.
