I'm suprised it isn't younger, think how bad it looks to have old people preaching that the end is right around the corner.

The Best Public Talk I Ever Heard (though the speaker was disfellowshipped thereafter)
by exWTslave inthe best public talk i ever heard was one i heard in a jw kingdom hall.
unfortunately, the hurriedly formed jc disfellowshipped him within a couple of weeks for not worshipping the octo(headed) gb.
this happened two years back when i was his fellow-elder.

A Better World - Can it be achieved?
by fulltimestudent inthe hope of a better world is what attracted me (and likely many of you other loiterers (grin) on this site) into the mental mindtrap of christian thought.
i guess its understandable, re-reading the words that the author of the matthew gospel that we know as the sermon on the mount, its easy to think, that if jesus ruled the world, everything would be ok.. i'm still interested in a better world.
so have many other thinkers (and revolutionaries).

Xanthippe, couln't agree more. Advertising is out of hand and is only designed to scare you into buying some useless product.
Every day I see ads about medications for diseases that I have never even heard of. Then I went to my doctors office and they tried to get me to fill out a survey about one of those obscure diseases. It’s like they are trying to make everyone a hypochondriac so they can sell more stuff.
I think the best thing to do is to toss your television in the trash, go outside and have some fun.
(now I just have to convince my wife)

Does seem rather odd that they want to know your rank.
I remember the quick builds when they were fun. Nothing more fulfilling that a Saturday off of service, hanging out and flirting with all the cute sisters in hard hats and workboots. Guess GB found out and people were enjoying themselves so they put a stop to it. Or maybe they found out the halls were built so poorly that it cut into the resale value.
Anyone remember the story of the Mall that was taking a long time to complete and one of the politicians said "we should call it the kingdom hall mall and get the JWs down here to finish it"?

Baptisms only at regional ( district ) assemblies from 2014 / 15 service year?
by dozy injust a rumour but i guess it makes sense - i've a friend on a circuit committee ( he knows it's not "the truth" but for family & work reasons he stays in ) & he says that the wtbts have told them not to book a swimming pool for next years one day assemblies as the plan is to have only one baptism a year at the main regional ( what they used to call "district" ) convention.. with the drop off in baptisms so that sometimes there isn't anyone baptised or just a handful , i guess this is inevitable.
i remember going to a baptism a few years ago - we had hired a municipal 25 metre swimming pool and only one person ( a rather confused and scared middle aged lady who hadn't been in a swimming pool since her youth ) was being baptised - it was all something of a farce with the "worldly" staff looking on very puzzled at such an elaborate & expensive ceremony for one person.
) also with both assemblies being one day with just short morning & afternoon sessions , i suppose it is sensible to ditch the baptism talk - it tends to be something of a snoozefest anyway at the end of the morning session.

The jw's baptising younger and younger people is just like a company that cuts costs to the bone to make their bottom line look better.
It only lasts so long before it catches up with you.
I really don't understand how anyone can't see a problem with children being baptised.
I got baptised at 18 or 19 and even then I had no clue what I was getting myself into.

My perfect paradise house
by redvip2000 inwhile browsing throught my facebook timeline today, i came across a post from a facebook "friend" who is a hardcore zealous jw.
he obviously has no idea that i'm an apostate.
and so this person provides me endless entertainment on a daily basis with his delusional posts about the org.. today we had this gem, where he said he had just designed his paradise home in photoshop which i am posting a picture here.

I'm still waiting to see the picture. At least paste in the link and we can just follow it.
My new system home was going to be a cabin in the woods as far away from people as possible.
I planned on driving my car into a ditch and learning to ride a horse.
Bet the FuDS would have had something to say about that.
