lol.. I really used to think about that when I was growing up since we had to wait like 3 years in between them. Now I feel the same way but instead its "I hope I don't die before the sequel trilogy is completed" screw Armageddon.

Yeah, throw the worldly scum out onto the street! Bird food is wall they are, bird food!
This would likely be no different if it were another company purchasing this complex. Its business, granted you'd think so-called christians would be a little more kind but it is what it is.

sexism aside, how does the wt/gb explain their absolute power over the sheeples based on this scripture?
where are they located in the model listed in that scrtipture?

Agreed, all of it is good. Try to find the time, I sneaked around and read it in about 4 days and I am mentally free now. Physically is taking much, much, much, much, much longer than 4 days.

Elders: Born-Ins vs Recruits
by breakfast of champions inthis is an unofficial survey.. was curious as to the number of currently serving elders who were born-in and/or raised as jw versus those who were "recruited"( i.e, not born in or raised as jw.).
for instance, right now in the hall i am assigned to:.
2 elders were born-in and/or raised as jws.. 5 were not (recruited as adults).

Since Elders And Mini Servants Have To Be Exemplary How Does Anyone Ever Qualify?
by minimus init seems to me that you must be almost perfect to be a " servant" in the organization today.
no college, no spiritually weak in the family, no disfellowshipped living at home, no tight pants, etc......who can live up to their lofty ideals?.

It all has to do with what is considered "exemplary". As a former elder Min you must know what I am referring to, and it varies from congregation to congregation. By the way this only applies to Joe Schmo brothers. Once you are a pioneer or even better a Bethelite you are automatically exemplary and nothing can change that as long as you remain with those privleges. Pioneer and Bethelite brothers know more than publishers, they are automatically more spiritual, and immediately qualify for any other and all appointments.

Changed: Head coverings for sisters, w15 2/15 QFR
by wifibandit indoes a female kingdom publisher need to wear a head covering if she conducts a bible study in the presence of a male publisher?.
in a questions from readers item published in the watchtower of july 15, 2002, it was stated that a sister should cover her head if she conducts a bible study in the presence of a male publisher, whether he is baptized or not.
further consideration of the matter suggests that a modification to this direction is appropriate.. if the male publisher who accompanies the sister while she conducts an established bible study is baptized, the sister would certainly want to wear a head covering.

George Couch who was a prominent heavy at Bethel for decades used to always bring up "homo's and lesbo's" in his morning worship comments. This is nothing new, AM3 was basically speaking to the the entire US Branch as if he was at a morning worship or lecture to the Bethel family. They are used to it already and I am sure if you were to speak to some Bethelites they would tell you that this is common place and the Branch Meeting was even tame.
