I'd love to know how much of the donated money would actually make it to those people. Not much i'm betting.

We had an elder that used one on stage a few years ago. Then a letter from the society was read that they shouldn't be used on stage but could be used in the audience. A year later the light got super bright and they were allowed to be used on stage! Such a fast moving crazy train

New Spiritually Weak Label: Not Using Tablet/iPhone
by Doubtfully Yours inwith last night's meeting it became official: here in the states is a must to keep up with 'jehovah's org' that one fully jumps on board with this tablet/iphone crap.. so, now, all of us that up to this point have refused to follow the wtbts in their electronic/wireless revolution will deal with the browbeating from the 'spiritual' ones.. already receiving lots of grief from hubby and rest of the family/close friends when seen at the meetings with paper publications.
damn it!!!
am i alone in this resistance???!!!.

The same Watchtower urges Witnesses to turn a brother or sister in to the elders if that one is committing serious sin.
I can't remember even one time where a witness had an issue with someone, where they went to the person before the elders. Even in personal experience i have had the elders tell me someone was offended by something or saw me do something, and i ask them to have the person come to me first about the matter, but the elders never do that.
