My Father's Funeral was a Joke. The first five minutes where about my Dad, then the remainder was all about What the Org can do. And if you use to be in the Org you need to hurry up and get back into the Org. There was alot of non Jw's at my Dad's service. And some of us where in a group outside talking that this was just a "Plug" for this group to get new members. And how very tacky it was to use a dead member's family to have to listen to that crap.

No funeral
by road to nowhere ini have run across another jw death where the final wishes are for no service.
3rd or 4th instance.
another wanted a celebration of life which the elders squelched as far as i know.

More and likely Watchtower will be an all TV online thing with occasional big conventions in major towns. And it will be pay to play church. Nickel and dime for everything. Donate, Donate will be just the tip of the iceberg. A full TV pay to view network.

Watchtower looses Norwegian Appeal
by Diogenesister inwatchtower has just lost its appeal in the norwegian courts over the withdrawal of the funding it receives from the government as an officially recognised religion.
the initial decision will now stand due to what the court termed 'exclusionary practices' which includes the witnesses barbaric practice of shunning minors, even by family members in their own homes.
the ministry of children and families have decided they are now no longer eligible for the state grant of 16 million norwegian kroner given to officially recognised religions.. the following is a statement has been issued, i have summarised if it isn't readable: .

This is good news! The governments of the world should wise up an tax them like a business since they are a business. Then they claim they are a charity. Go after them for fraud.

No More having to read Watchtower stuff.
No more meetings.
No more convention$.
No more field service.
No more Dealing with crazy, nosey, self righteous, gossiping witnesses.
No more worried about being on egg shells if someone sees you do something. I just don't care.

Longhairgal- Yes, you hit the nail on the head. They are " Rats" coming to us who planned for our future and did something about and didn't listen to Watchtower crap. They should hit up Watchtower.

No it was not a committee meeting but more of them searching us out sort of speak. For the first 35 minutes or so they did all the talking. I sat at my desk and listened to them, then uncle came in hitting them non stop with questions. Some of those questions they didn't want to answer but we knew the outcome. Real critical thinking questions. They looked like deer in headlights.
