  my wife told me that last night a letter was read from the society, explaining how all printing operations in brooklyn were being moved to either walkill or patterson, and that worldwide there would be consolidation of the printing operations.

  i know there have been rumors like this floating around here for the last month or so, but now it seems there is confirmation.

  has anyone else heard about this letter being read?

  Yet more scams for money - notice that the 'wonderful provision' of moving the printing to Walkhill requires the dubs to yet again open up their pockets and empty them into the WT coffers. I would guess the letter read to the congos did not include informations to the fact of how much the WT will make from the sale of Brooklyn property.

  pushed this idea on his whole circuit.

  2-4 brothers in the parking lot to welcome everyone in.

  a good idea if it had stayed simple, but he insisted on a drivers ed.

  Give young semi-retarded or uneducated boys a power (god told them to park cars) and they act like they are on a holy quest. "You vill obey and park your car here!" <whip cracks> They know that it is simply training for future elder duties.

  If those punks double thump'ed MY car's trunk there'd be some serious problems!

  They don't know where I live, there's a KH about 1 mile from my house. In 3 years - once we had a tract left in the door. In my travels around this area, Saturdays and weekdays I have never seen a group. So much for ugently preaching the end!

  Jourles, that's exactly what does happen. I've known people in the accounting dept at conventions. The #'s they report on Sunday morning do not include the $'s collected during the weekend so far(or at most just the first morning or day), they are the #'s at the beginning of the convention. Every convention starts in a deficit, since all $'s not needed to pay expenses are forwarded to the WTBTS at the end of every convention. So the next convention starts w/ basically $0 in the bank. The conventions are huge $$$$ makers for the WTBTS.

  New Literature No Longer Announced in km!

  by GermanXJW in

  2. current

  at least the german edition of "our kingdom ministry" says that new literature is no longer announced in the km.

  instead there will be a letter from the society that is read and shown at the announcement board.. maybe they want to use the space in the km for other things.

  or they just want keep those informed that attend meetings.

  Huh-huhhuh He said 'oral'

  Seriously, this is interesting. I wonder if the fact that recently KM's have been scanned and links posted to this site had anything to do with this? Hmmm. Much harder to scan those letters, you'd have to pull them down from the bulliten information board and copy them. More secrecy and subterfuge.

  Donkey's never-ending atheism thread

  wih the permission of simon, i would like to start a thread to act as a collection of thought, quotes and miscellany on atheism and agnosticism.

  there are so many other threads on this subject but no one place which one can go to on here.

  i have much to share - enjoy and contribute with me please.give me the storm and stress of thought and action rather than the dead calm of ignorance and faith.
