  My thoughts about Watchtower fully owned "independent" lawyer firm / Dutch case

  friends,.

  of course we have the vampire story, but this is what i'm thinking of now:.

  in the current dutch jw.org law cases about child abuse and religion rights the jw.org is represented by shane brady, partner of w. glen how & associaties.

  The fact that they have made a website for a law-firm that seems to work ONLY for JW.ORG is really weird.

  I think you are right Gorby

  Since so much artwork in WT is starting to resemble propaganda posters from totaluitarian regimes, I submit this...

  @Vidiot...Just the way I worded it.

  Of course it's always been propaganda in style but what I meant was it looks more like the propaganda posters from my cold war childhood.

  District convention to be held in assembly hall instead of stadium

  by NikL in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  last night they announced that this summers district convention will be held at an assembly hall.. this is the first time i've seen this happen.

  there are a couple of congregations in the same hall here and they aren't going to the same ones.

  they are having multiple dates.. the hall they are going to use can only hold 1500 people max.. just wondering if maybe they just couldnt get anything bigger this year or if the falling numbers are playing a part in this decision.

  I am in California.
  

  Any thoughts?

  New Watchtower president

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the main corporation is two words "watch tower" society of pennsylvania.

  don adams took over for milton henschel in 2000 when the governing body cut all corporate ties, and when he died robert ciranko took over for him in 2014.. the next major corporation in line is the one word "watchtower" society of new york.

  the jw's first black corporate president, leon weaver jr., was president of this one up until recently.
