  How will the WT reply?

  They may place a FULL PAGE ad in the paper just like they did with tax issue in FRAnCE.

  about those newspaper articles...

  jw newspaper articles for dummies,

  Most articles i have read so far lack something...

  (according to the title, they should have subtitles, highlighted or properly located easy to spot key words)

  'Who are contending'

  'policy description'

  'how it 'hides offenses''

  sample case 1

  sample case 2

  'why ousted'

  What is being done to...

  -------------

  twice a year? how about inner cities?

  names other than PR director?

  synonyms or other word to describe shunning"

  (wt style)

  PD

  these people make a living just writting, i wonder what method they generally follow.

  2. friends

  over the past few days some people have been talking about various electronics and gadgets and other stuff like that.

  some of you have expressed interest in seeing what kind of stuff i have here and how my entertainment system works.

  well, its not perfect and has many areas that could be improved upon but its still pretty inventive if you ask me.

  by MrMoe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  why do people discriminate against people that have different color skin?

  i understand it is a learned response, but my "elder" father is very racist... and this is how i was raised.. i don't get it.

  Bottom line, education

  "Most educated people today don't believe that race is a determinant in ones intellect or intrinsic value to society."

  Any truly "educated people" would not.

  Don't buy into Ray Franz's stumbling block.

  by Bleep in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ray franz wrote, "i was baptized a jehovah's witness in 1972 (three years before armageddon came) and served as an elder for a good number of years.

  all i can say is put franz book to the test for yourself.

  1)he is making money off a dumb idea.. 2)he was expecting 1975 to be armageddon.

  One more thing about selling 'literature'.

  Once upon a time a pionner asked permission to give away the magazines whenever he wanted.

  Since it cost him so cheap. Magazine cost was one cent to be sold for five cents.
  (500% profit as my grandmother used to ironically say.)

  Any way, authorization was denied. It would not be a good precedent, people would not appreciate the gift etc etc.

  Then why have a Public Talk, but not charge for the admission or something.?

  The hi profit allowed to the pionner = his pay for being a full time recruiter.

  No charge for public talk = we dont charge for training and conditioning new potential salespeople/recruiters

  BTW

  About a week or so ago i received a courtesy copy of the latest edition of CoC. A personal note from Ray was included. He even offered to send copies to my family members if a wished.

  Before that he sent me a couple of boxes full of his two main books to give away FREE.

  His personal communication s in big contrast with GB and hi ranking WT officials who do not even aknowledge simple letters most of the time.

  LOL, more fluff what the heck

  What can i say...I have been here longer that the later repliers (sp?) with few complaints, read my initial posts for a litle contradiction.

  I make suggestions. Obviously some suggestion have been accepted, implemented.

  If i dont use the ACTIVE as 'some' suggest it will take an eternty browsing the site to get the latest on NONFLUF topics. As simple as that.

  It is HARDER for the focused visitor or poster to stay current on SERIOUS topics. Therefore limiting his participation on the board.

  Why request to the WT to change its rules, because of Silentlambs? Heck the rest is doing fine...

  Why do they still make amendments to the Constitutions?

  ...also 13 states and now 50, why not just keep 13 and force the others to join, without a new name? giving them privileges to do local legislation etc.

  The only sure thing i;n modern sociaty is change,

  How about this board running over the UPS or USPS? those systme have have been working fine for centuries...

  Do we want to emulate the GB, if it works dont fix it...mentality

  We have similiar handle name (wichi created a big misundertanding on my first post, read it) but no similar opinion about what a "MIX" is, at least not on the context i mentioned the word.. The word secuence is not what i had in mind, I could turn off the radio when the SEQUENCE start the sports SECTION or the fluff, but never mind...

  I know for sure you dont need me to elaborate

  Just for fun.
