Are the WTB&TS out of their depth with the IT age ? And is it going to be their Waterloo ?
by smiddy ini`m just wondering if their stumbling from one disaster to another in their belated efforts to embrace modern technology , smart phones , the web, twitter , pc`s, you tube , social networking ,etc.etc.
is really going to be their demise in the long run .
i know they frown on higher education , but the gaffes they have made in recent years is getting beyond the joke.. ignorance can be excused to a degree , uneducated people can be excused to a degree, but plain stupidity, cannot !

St George of England >> They were supposed to launch their new jw.org site at the beginning of June.
The celestial chariot lags behind; the universe is expanding and news reaching earth takes longer. Thus the shift from June '12 to September '12.
Still yet others may call it just an overlapping of website content.

All the German JWS are ordered to their KH Wednesday evening to listen to a Warren Sheweldt. Never heard of him. Who is he?
This is what one of the local papers printed in their religious section (Google-translated from German):
"We can look forward to visiting our traveling servant Ralf Jeske and his wife Evelyn. In addition to many common Mission dates are expected edifying lectures and Conversations. Moreover, for Wednesday, a live audio transmission planned from Selters/Taunus. Warren Sheweldt responsible for Missionary activity of large parts of Europe is responsible, it is us a lecture giving an interesting insight about the activities and experiences of our brothers in neighboring countries."

Facing the elders - The right way to do it?
by mrbunyrabit inso now you have it in your mind, that the wts are not what they say they are, they lie and what have you.. nowwwww, next time you dont go out in fieldservice, and the next time, and the next time people start to wonder.. well, time comes and you have to explain yourself to who ever.
your mom, your dad, an elder, who ever.
now you cant just go about saying, "well, one of the things is that new light is a bunch of crap, because russel predicted this in 1914 and that in 1918 and that in.....".

Remember, you are dealing with the dub elite - keep it brief, clear, and simple.
It's best to refer them to "our spiritual heritage" utilizing their own literature:
Take Time to Think About What You Read: What is going to be your objective as you read? Merely covering pages — completing the book — should not be your aim. The Proclaimers book contains a record of your spiritual heritage. You ought to know it well. Take time to think about the implications of what you read.
Our Kingdom Ministry, February 1994, page 6 par. 12

The Money is Interest-Free, People!!!
by Yan Bibiyan ininspired by another thread on the "who are doing jehovah's will today", i did a little digging into the masterpiece.. pg 25. talks sbout khs and there is the revelation:.
"...they (khs) are built with donations made to a central fund.
in every kingdom hall, there is another contribution box for kingdom hall construction worldwide.

How its's done:
Local KH Donations ---> WTBTS ---> Funds (Loans) toward building local KH
"Man in the middle"How it should be done:
Local KH Donations ---> Funds (Loans) toward building local KH
The WTBTS probably would apply a bible-based principle for not allowing the locally funded KH -

In the reminders section of that form, one checkbox reads:
"Have contributions for the worldwide work and the Kingdom Hall Fund been sent to the branch office each month?"This surely is a form of pressuring to send money on a monthly basis, is it not? I guess, more voluntary contributions equals increased spiritual blessings.
