  can anyone point me in the direction of unbiased (or outside) sources for research.

  i'm particularly interested in anything showing the teachings or russell and rutherford and proof of what the wts society was teaching in 1919?.

  i don't want to direct my friend to an apostate site..

  JW's DO celebrate Xmas!

  i'm finding it really funny how many witnesses celebrate christmas without actually 'celebrating christmas'.

  i'm just looking at facebook and seeing how many got together with family on christmas day or boxing day and had a big roast dinner, often with turkey, ate too much, drank too much, played some board games etc.

  then a few days later i'm seeing photos from all their 'family present days' where the kids get a ton of gifts to open.

  i heard recently that a nearby congregation which some of my family attend are having this.

  basically the elders are arranging an open meeting with all those who would like to be appointed.

  is this happening everywhere?

  The latest on blood

  so the local elders where i live recently had a big meeting with the hlc elders and i got a brief summary of what was said.

  thought i'd share.. it seems the jws aren't capable of making a decision based on their personal conscience.

  they are confused by the whole fraction thing and end up refusing the lot 'just in case' or accepting some and refusing others making them look like idiots.

  Ridiculous Memorial Invitation!

  has anyone seen this year's memorial invitation?

  maybe someone could post a picture.. on the front is a question to the householder, 'how do you view jesus?'.

  then it gives multiple choices with accompanying pictues: .

  so i've got a huge pile of magazines that i took from the literature desk but never got round to going out in field circus to place them.

  oops!

  i'm wondering if i could put them to better use.. this could be helpful for any of you faders who have annoying jw relatives who insist on bringing the latest rags round every month, or those of you still in who want to do the public a favour by removing them from the hall and not placing them.

  i wasted my sunday yesterday attending the special a$$embly day.

  i thought some of you might like to see some of the notes i took to keep myself amused/awake.. we had a guest speaker from the local old people's home bethel.

  he seemed slightly senile.
