I spoke with my mother about this yesterday. She knew nothing about it, but asked my elder brother about it. My brother said that a letter was sent explaining the arrangement. Apparently, if an area does not have a local assembly hall, the witnesses in that area will not be notified of the existence of these credit machines. My mother, of course, said soemthing to the effect of, "well a lot of the brother and sisters wanted to donate but didnt have cash."

It makes me think about the organization a lot. I was raised in the early '80s when it was run by religious fanatics who perpetrated witch hunts against apostates. Now it seems as though the WTBTS is nothing but a money making group. Either way, its all bad.

I just received an email from the EX-JW meetup group coordinator in Phoenix. She stated that the JWs are putting credit donation machines at the assembly halls. Is this true? She said letters were sent to congregations about this in late August.

Why Won't They Carbon Date This?
by Perry in"for the first time in human history a dinosaur fossil is presenting us with the opportunity to see what a living dinosaur looked like.
in 2001 a field research team unearthed the worlds most complete dinosaur fossil, a brachylophosaurus nicknamed leonardo.
this incredible dinosaur has all of its skin covering its body, missing only a bit on the head and tail.

Whatever you do, arrive at 1914
by Doug Mason inthe wts claims that the length of babylons king nebuchadnezzars suppressed state symbolised the suppressed state of gods kingdom.
each day of the heathen kings lack of control represented a year of heathen supremacy.. .
since nebuchadnezzars experience was symbolic, it would have ended before the fulfilment started; unfortunately the hebrews scriptures do not specify that moment.

Review and Comments on the New Elders Book
by MrDarkKnight ini recently completed an exhaustive review of an unofficial copy of the new elders manual.
my father, who is currently serving as an elder told me a friend of his in the service department told him it was on the internet so i eagerly looked for it and found it.
yes, i know it was a violation of copyright, but while at bethel i made copies of many technical manuals which is also a copy of copyright so the wts hypocrisy does not concern me.. i was appointed as an elder the year the pay attention book (manual replaced by this one) was released so i have very good working knowledge of the old book and could compare the two books.

The Trinity
by The Quiet One ini have a question, primarily for trinitarians, but anyone's more than welcome to comment.
what scriptural basis is there for believing in the trinity?
i can understand some having the view that jesus/jehovah both can be worshipped, and the view that jesus should be, but where in the bible is the holy spirit worshipped?
