What is going ON?
by Aintthatcute infirst of all: i am new and have been lurking for about 2 weeks.
whoow!
glad i got that out of the way.. something that really bothers me is: when they say that the gb all the way down, elders, and ministerial servents are "appointed" by jehovah, and are deserving of "double honor".

Nov. 8 Awake - Wife Beaters-Sick
by MrMoe ini will let you all hang who ever the heck wrote this crap.
november 8, 2001 awake page 9: some battered women may need to seek assistance from the authorities.
at times, a point of crisis-such as intervention of the police-can cause an abusive man to see the seriousness of the action.. page 12: should the battered wife leave her husband?

I know you are young - but you are never to young to touch people with a mother's loving hand.

Society CD ROM vs BOUND VOLUMES
by ballistic inseveral years prior to the release of the first edition of "the watchtower library" in england on cd rom in 1994, the society made an announcement that back-issues of bound volumes of the watchtower and awake would be available (for sale) by ordering through the literature desk.. many in the congregation had wanted a complete library of watchtowers for years and there was a frenzy of orders placed.
i, myself, ordered the complete collection.. however, upon receiving news of the cd rom becoming available, i wondered just why the society had made so many old re-prints available when they must have known about the future release of the cd.. this also coincided with the rules changing in england for the charging / donating for literature and i distictly remember a talk by an elder saying how much we should donate for the cd through the new donation process... something like "a comparible encylopedia on cd rom would cost 30 to 40 in the shops - so how much do you think we should donate for this treasure of god-given knowledge".. it just struck me that the literature sell-off was a last ditch attempt at making money, for fear that the cd rom combined with the new donation programme would spell disaster for the societys income.. any thoughts?.
i need a more recent copy of the cd rom if anyone has one?

I think the CD rom's have been edited. Is that correct? I heard they removed a LOT of incriminating articles and reworded them - like the Oct. 8, 1975 article on the whole 1975 scam.

Shephering Visit - Update
by stevieb1 inyou may have read my thread from last week entitled "my personal turmoil" in which i discussed my congregation elders wanting to meet with me to "encourage" me to believe that jehovah is using the watchtower society as his organization.
i said in that thread that i had told them to leave me alone, well anyway on tuesday night the same elder phoned me to accept a "shephering visit" and again i refused.
not taking no for an answer he approached me again in the kingdom hall on thursday and told me that i must accept a shepherding visit out of necessity because i was in spiritual danger and the elders wanted to "help".

Being 12 and a minor when I was baptized - I wonder if I was actually bound by law. Are minors legally bound as JW's after baptism?

Allow me to re-introduce myself:
My name is Amanda. I am a wife and a mother of a beautiful 3 year old girl. I enjoy traveling and eating new food and meeting new people. I enjoy watching sunsets and listening to the birds sing. I like to write short stories and enjoy listening to music. I was born a redhead. My ancestors were from Checkoslovakia, Scotland, Ireland and England. I love to hang with the guys and talk about cars. I collect Beanie Babies. I am proud to be an American and will fight for my country - the finest country in the world. I am soft as a feather and tough as nails. I will defend those I love and my personal character to the grave. I am unique and I am beautiful. There is no other like me. I have compassion and love to offer 10x’s what is given to me. I have deep strength and passion. I am often misunderstood. I believe life is not fair, but when you have someone to love it makes it all worth while. My name is Amanda – what is yours?
