i was just thinking that out of the 200 jws that i actually know, at least 4 of them to my knowledge are pedophiles.
i know for a fact, through personal confidences.
that means, as far as my circle of jovo friends/acquaintances goes, 2% of them are kiddy fiddlers.. without mentioning names or details, how many do you know of for a certainty to be pedos, and what percentage does it work out at, considering all your circle of jovo friends?.
1 elder was in the Tamworth congregation I was at as a teenager. He outed himself by keeping a diary of his exploits which his wife found.
He had molested all 5 of his daughters and their even had sex with their goat. He was jailed on a unrelated fake injury at work insurance scam for 7 years.
He remarried and was reinstated not long after he got out of jail.

if so, did you enjoy the show?.
i loved it.
missed quite a few episodes due to attending kh meetings, but i'm making up for that.. the show reminds me so of growing up in a large family, having to share everything, and looking out for each other..
'Grandpa Walton' Will Geer was gay in real life and 'Grandma' Ellen Corby was also suspected of being lesbian.
Not that theres anything wrong with that.

Fantastic view from my backyard here in Australia for about 4 hours till the cloud came.
Got some nice video of it as well on my Flickr page And Venus was her name. | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Yes all the old bulbs are being replaced.
or agnostics too.
are you open about your beliefs (or lack thereof i should say)?
when people talk about anything religious, do you mention that you don't believe in god?
I have zero christians friends.
The last one was a neighbour who was a Catholic single mother of 7 but that was years ago and she knew I was a non believer.
We had a falling out over her barking dogs.
so i've been reading the bible, (for the fist time ever and i was a born in) i stopped going iilike 3 years ago and i wanted to have a good understanding of the bible and not just the wt.
but holy crap that's some 18rated stuff!
i mean i'm still in genesis and it's all vengeance this, condemn that and genocide everything else!
field service hours have hit new records each year, but i am seeing less people working the territory.
where is all the time spent, that people are putting in the field ministry?
it's been close to ten years, since i have seen people working certain territories.
Who's to say the numbers aren't fudged right at the top. After all they wouldn't wanna discourage the brothers with numbers going backward..
All religions are struggling these days. I drove past a catholic church the other day after service and ever single person was over
60 years of age. This generation aint buying the fairytale anymore.
just a little tidbit from the congregation i attend..... the congregation has approximately 120 publishers.. well over 1000 magazines per month are picked up, not to mention all the books, brochures, and tracts that are picked up.. there was a "local needs" part on the service meeting recently, asking for more contributions.. it seems our congregation has averaged just about $300 per month contributions to the "worldwide work" over the past year.. .
assuming 1500 magazines / month, that's just 20 cents per magazine - and that completely ignores all other literature that is picked up.. the last price the magazines had, 20+ years ago, was 25 cents per issue.
with inflation that would have been about 50 cents each now.. just another sign of how severely the contriutions to the society are drying up..... .
This is where the Mormons got it right by getting 10% of your wage and rapid breeding brings the numbers ups.
