i'm new here; one of my relatives was a member on this forum a few years ago and told me about it.
anyways, as a sister who has been in the org since childhood and now in her late 40's (plus as a woman of color), i have noticed that a number of brothers have an ageist attitude.
they are very accepting of young women under 26 and rejecting women over that age, particularly those in their 30's and over.. is this an unspoken mindset from wthq (specifically from bethel), or is it that quite a number of males (sorry, i'm not sexist here) have this type of mentality?
Well that depends. If age is in the cards, you've got to improve your hand.
If you are semi rich, have a nice car, home, you could probably get a reg. pioneer. I know a local situation where a young single reg pioneer married a 70 year old widow. He was her tenant.
any idea what could have happened to song 151?
what logical reason could they have had to skip a number.
is the number 151 now an evil number accordig to new light?
Song 151 is in the Secret Elders Manual. The Elders sing it when they have an Elders meeting
so let's just say that the wt org is now finished.
families with da/df members are now reunited.
everyone is burning their med directive cards.
I had a different posting name when I was on Freeminds. I forgot the password and therefore started with a new profile.

Huh, NN?
You are over analyzing my post. I've been on this Site before it started. I've been a member since Freeminds.
I don't think I should apologize for anything that I didn't cause.

I imagine that it would be like the collapse of Germany when they heard that their Leader had committed suicide, and then reailty set in. Then the healing process took place. Many years of rebuilding.

So let's just say that the WT ORG is now finished. Families with DA/DF members are now reunited. Everyone is burning their Med Directive cards. Ex Missionaries/Need Greaters/ Bethel Workers are now heading home. Pioneers are sleeping in.
What have you planned for yourselves? Will Simon invite us over for a Celebration? Will you continue to post on this Website? What will be left to post about?
it was a mild surprise, learning that a brother and sister-in-law had began re-associating with jehovah's witnesses after at least 25 years of being away.
the couple, of hispanic ethnicity, are in their early 60's, with their five children all grown and independent.
the family had been considered nominal jws, infrequently attending meetings, rarely in field service, but using the annual convention as their family vacation.
They may be fit to put some money in the contribution box, though.

Some are not even fit to flush the toilet.
every time i walk into a best buy, the vr equipment is busted for a sample test.
does anyone know, or have tested these?
is it really worth buying?.
I just test the Samsung VR model. It's impressive. When you calculate buying a Samsung phone, and the headger its quite costly. About $800.00. Some images weren't in HD so the quality was lacking. This still needs to improve
at the assembly i noticed something new and disturbing.
when a brother is introduced before a talk the audience is now given their life history/ major accomplishments .. "brother arsehole who served at bethal for five years, pioneered in the foreign language territory for ten years, is an elder in x congregation and serves in the construction projects blah blah blah".
this puffing up never used to happen?
Let's listen to Brother Tech, He was the first to introduce an Ipad into the KH, he also used it on the platform during his Bible Reading. ........
The next speaker is Brother Full-time service example, He lives at his mom's home, he collects government assistance cheques for a mysterious illness. He doesn't own a car. His suits are purchased from Good Will. His theme is, "Honor God's House with Your Riches"
