Is there a search bar for jw.org??
by mauiboy ini registered as a user (under an alias of course) but can't find a search bar anywhere on the site......i'm not a tech-savvy person, but usually can find what i need.
i will repost this question under the post "counteract jw.org august 2014 campaign" participating in that idea was what prompted me to open an account on the jw site in the 1st place.
other than that the whole thing makes me want to puke..

Curious change in December 15 Study Article
by Bobcat ini ran across a change between the printed edition of the december 15, 2013 wt study edition and the magazine as a pdf download from the jw.org website.. whether the change amounts to much, i'm not sure.
but it is curious.
the change is in paragraph 16 on page 15:.

Who would be more likely to read each version?
Maybe it is a way to say something different to the non-JWs than to those already part of the borg?Or maybe it is someone in Bethel trying to help people wake up....

What do you think it costs to rent the arena?
The one in Maine, sort of near me, looks to be around $1500 a day. That seems even cheaper than I would have thought. For that kind of money I could throw myself one crazy birthday party. And makes those $100+ concert tickets seem absurd.
I frequently wonder why they keep letting the JWs rent since they don’t seem to bring much to the local economy. They don’t hire any of the arena employees which seemed to be a requirement at a number of centers. (Maybe all that cleaning that gets done after the assembly is spun as a free spring cleaning service for the arena.) They probably don’t bring all that much revenue to the local businesses either, although I guess as long as it is a low use weekend even some revenue is better than none.
Also interesting that many conventions seem to be at Universities. Wonder if that ever registers with the attendees? They are probably both laughing at each other. The school is thinking “we get our cash from JWs one way or another” and the JWs are thinking “how ironic that we are the ones providing the real education”.

What Motivates Jehovah's Witnesses To Stay In The Religion?
by minimus ini believe it is mostly guilt.
many witnesses pioneer or "reach out" in the religion because they feel guilty.. they may feel they aren't doing enough.
they may have secretly "sinned" against rules imposed by the organization.

It is the opposite of motivated. You join that cult because you are lazy and fall for the “Get saved quick” scheme the FDS is selling. Madoff has nothing on them. No thought or work required for everlasting life, we will take care of it all for you. Don’t worry you don’t even have to think we will tell you exactly what to do and when.
Take this pill and lose weight, follow this plan for easy money and come to the KH and live forever.
The bible says that you should search like you are searching for a hidden treasure (Prov 2:4-5) not that the treasure will be delivered to your door and spoon fed to you. That one scripture proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the JWs are full of Shite!

The more likely scenerio would be that the elders woud grill Mary to see if she had done something else that was causing her depression.
Mary, did you perhaps have sex with somene else and that is what is bringing on this bout of guilty depression?

Simon, I love the new CAPTCHA
by pixel insimon,.
just for the records, good job with the captcha lately.
numbers and cute texts like today's make it easy to log-in!.

It is odd most of the time it is just numbers for me, but on one of my computers it is (or was) the hard to read characters.
little known fact, the extra "cute text" is not actually required for the captcha to work. When you type that in you are helping to translate Scanned images into text.
