  gb member anthony morris mentioned a letter that was sent to bethel by a concerned jw fearing the gt.

  he mentioned it on the last sunday talk.

  i always wondered if any letter sent to bethel ever reached gb eyes.

  Yes, it's true. I wrote that letter. But, I'm shocked he would mention it in a talk. That was a confidential letter.

  one of the parts had a skit with 3 or 4 young brothers playing a game of "what i will look forward to in the new system".

  one wanted a house by the beach.

  one wanted a house in the forest.

  I have had many conversations with guys, about what life would be like in the New System, and it didn't go exactly the way it was displayed at the RC. For one thing, Back packing is more desirious before the end of this system because of the interesting things that exists. The Great Wall of China, the Leaning Twr of Pisa. Europe, Prague, etc. You can live now on the lake, or in the forest, even if you are pioneering. In the New System, what will happen when everyone wants to live there? One important thing that was left out of the conversation was, guys do like to talk about chicks, and I'm not talking poultry

  Obama Calls For Collectivized New World Order

  by Dis-Member in

  obama calls for collectivized new world order"people are anxious.... the old order isnt holding"during a fundraiser in seattle this week, president barack obama called for a new order based around a collectivized system in order to quell peoples concerns about geopolitical strife and the economy.. people are anxious.

  now, some of that has to do with some big challenges overseas, said obama, adding, but whether people see whats happening in ukraine, and russias aggression towards its neighbors in the manner in which its financing and arming separatists; to whats happened in syria ... to the failure in iraq for sunni and shia and kurd to compromise ... to whats happening in israel and gaza..... part of peoples concern is just the sense that around the world the old order isnt holding and were not quite yet to where we need to be in terms of a new order thats based on a different set of principles, thats based on a sense of common humanity, thats based on economies that work for all people.

  ... but here in the united states, what people are also concerned about is the fact that although the economy has done well in the aggregate, for the average person it feels as if incomes, wages just havent gone up; that people, no matter how hard they work, they feel stuck.. .

  I can't wait for the Convention Reminders for 2015 in the KM's.

  " We've received complaints from Hotel staff that claim you are demanding coffee, and food. Just because you have to bring your lunches to the convention, and you can't leave for the day, you should'nt expect the Hotel to feel that burden.

  Some are even questioning their rates that they were charged, comparing them to the Lodging List that you are required to use. Please note the fine print on the list."Prices subject to change without notice". If a price is not honored just move on to the next choice on the list. When the you have done so, and you run out of Hotels, go to your cong Secretary. The society does not provide secretary locations.

  We've heard that some brothers are hugging the Hotel staff. This practice must stop, even if your wife is ugly and pioneering."

  I have to admit that there exists differences of concepts between Jesus, Paul, and the FDS. If I were to choose, I would chose to follow the pattern of love from Jesus example. I know that the Bible canon is Inspired and that Paul's words are there. But, I don't even believe that the current FDS follow Paul's words accurately.
