Thanks Steve!
Unmitigated egotism.
That is the only thing that can explain the way they see the world versus the way they themselves are.

Dearest Time Bandit,
You know what is a tribute to Henriette (Hennie)?
You are my friend.
You are.
She would be so amazed at knowing how much you care after all this time.
Thank you for sharing her antics and her larger than life personality and letting us all get to know her.

LostGeneration, thank you for that picture and article. I couldnt find it.
Do you know the date of the article? It was an Awake I think?
I had to laugh at a statement in the article that accompanies the snake picture....
someone can be "pretending to be in the know without even revealing his name"
Oh really?
You mean like every publication the Org puts out? No names and pretending to be in the know????

The info at the Seventh Day Adventist website is very honest. It even refers to its early days as "not the churches finest hour".
Still, the accurate data is in stark contrast to JW org.

Are we sure they are JWs? They look far too happy!
Just kidding!
I think it is great that the sphere of influence Tony Morris has seems rather limited to the puritan sector of the U.S. and doesnt extend globally with much impact.

Necessary Family Business (NFB) is now acceptable according to the weekly WT Study
by Quarterback induring the last decade i've seen so many articles, and top speakers try to downplay that nfb policy.
now, this weeks wt study mentions a positive experience of someone applying having, "contact and applying nfb with a df relative".

Thanks for that Blondie...
Anyone think maybe it is a legal disclaimer or hedging their bets legally?
Who decides what is "necessary" family business?
The average JW is not allowed to think for themselves in any area - not grooming, dress or even sexual conduct between married people. How on earth would they be able to discern necessary family business from un neccesary?
Most will think it best to have NO contact period and the Org still gets to look good in print.

by daringhart13 ini stopped in to see if that are any overwhelming statistics, stories or feedback from people regarding the 2016 district convention.....haven't seen much...... any stories or threads?.

It might be worth mentioning that in the final video (the ressurection/new system video) where they are wrapping all the other videos in and showing the outcomes of the people who were in the previous videos, that the one of the DFd girl?
She and her kids made it in to the final video. The presumably worldly man she got DFd over and had the kids with (their father) is not shown.
Are we being lead to a subliminal conclusion that he died?
If so how horrible to put in peoples heads.
Did they just leave him out because they didnt want to come right out and say what they really each - that most of humanity is going to die at Armageddon?
If so, how cowardly.
So subliminal threats or cowardice on their part. Those are the choices the video leaves us with.

Hi daringheart,
I have only heard three things...
One from an elderly man - "The assembly was all about the brotherhood!"
(it wasnt, it was about loyalty - especially as it applys to the Org.)
Another from a middle aged guy - "There werent any new releases because they are trying to appeal to the young people and they like everything digital ya know!"
(oh really......THATS why? hmm)
And the third was the most pitiable of all, an older, widowed, faithful woman. Her comment was concerning the infamous "bunker" video - "I heard from a friend who knows someone up at Bethel that they are trying to prepare us for the persecution that is coming....they must know something we dont!"
