first of all, i really appreciate it when official, especially "secret," boe letters and the like are posted here.
it's great to have that stuff on hand, straight from the horse's... uhh...mouth, when certain "friends" deny the slave would ever do or say such and such.... anyway, there have been some references to a letter they sent out about using ipads and the like during congregation meetings.
could anyone provide a scan or link to this letter?
The Society has a website that allows you to download it's publications. It seems to be open to the use of the IPAD, but the standard for the platform is still behind the times. It seems that Elders will have to use the Large size Bibles for the platform.
It sure would lessen our load if we could just bring a regular size Bible, and Ipad to replace all of the publications we need to bring to the meetings.
i now can't imagine anything more boring and stilted and stupifying than the way the wts instructs people to train and teach their children.. .
we're to sit at a table with one of their horrid, boring, dry, frightening publications.
read a paragraph, look up a scripture or scripture snippet, then ask the question.. .
We discussed the Romney/Obamma debate on our family worship night.

it's just a thought right now, but one of those thoughts where i have that itch.
it's that same itch felt before i purchase something major.
i'm just wondering what i might be getting into based upon others experiences in this regard.
Sorry, I'm a die hard meat lover.
When I order pizza, I ask for the Meat Lovers one, and ask for extra meat.
When I walk into a forest....the animals run to the city.
the wt for today, can't remember exactly what paragraph, stated the dangers of the tongue.
it went further to mention that we wouldn't want to question the motives of a sister who was appointed in the congregation as a pioneer.
there was even a picture to add emphasis.. who on earth questions that?
I appreciated all of your comments friends.
(revelation 11:11,12)11 and after the three and a half days spirit of life from god entered into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them.
12 and they heard a loud voice out of heaven say to them: come on up here.
and they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them.. .
That's a good point....expect another book this summer.
at today's special assembly in natick ma, bro brown payne annouced to the audience that serena williams was disciplined by her local elders for her swearing escapade on tv.. saying: "can jehovah's witnesses swear like that on tv?
" then he told the audience that she was "disciplined" by the elders of the congregation she's a publisher in.. doesn't this smack of revealing the private business of another person?
the most the local elders could have said was "a matter concerning serena williams has been handled by the elder body".
So the transcript of that meeting with the Elders started like this, " Well, sister Williams. What the "F" were you thinking of." "This F.....g mouth of yours have to F.....g be controlled." "Bad speech" must be avoided at all costs. Why are you grinning? There you go again lauging at my Touret's Syndrome again".
she is a beautiful young woman, inside and out.
i am very proud of her.
she was only 4.5 lbs at birth and dropped to .
Congratulations

I've heard District Overseer's swear....but, granted, it wasn't on TV.
