Thanks, very interesting!
And to think this digital golden calf was invented to replace paper, cut costs, meet modern day standard and boost the preaching work during the end of the end!
What happened to the good ol' "gold instead of the copper and silver instead of the iron"?
did anyone experience a disassociation announcement during the public meeting instead during the service meeting?.
in my case it was announced the next day that we submitted our letter and this was on sunday instead of waiting for the service meeting on thursday..
As you already noticed in the elders book, this is quite unusual.
Paul, you must be very special (dangerous) to them!
the degradation of the governing body members continues on.
mark sanderson gives a talk regarding his visit to belgium for the memorial this year and was travelling from korea to munich to brussels, belgium on the day of the belgium terrorist attacks.he cannot wipe the smirk on his face as he relates his experience, with no regard whatsoever of all those unfortunately affected by the attacks.
in fact, he personally found god's hand affecting him personally, allowing him to attend the memorial as planned and a kh dedication.he is that privileged during his flight travels that internet was available to him, enabling him to catch up on current news and to contact branch's.
Listener: I am wondering if the Youtuber My JW downloaded the Video from JW org TV shortly after it was put there by the organization (teaching department) and shortly removed, possibly after being veiwed by other WTBTS Departments and realizing it was far from appropriate. If so, it means that their internal controls on approved video material to be made public are not up to scratch. For one thing, at least, it shows that what one Department might find as appropriate, is not the case for other Departments.
Interesting thought, but as you already noticed, konceptual99 found out that the video indeed is still there, and why shouldn't it when it is approved by the teaching comittee? Disappointing or not (and it is to all of us who want to expose the WT), I'm sure they'll proof "read" everything before putting stuff online.They can't even reckognize their own moral degradation! Very, very sad...
the website avoidjw.org has been working to improve all the older documents.
right now, all the zion's watch towers from 1880 - 1908 and the watch towers from 1909 to 1920 have been improved drastically.
i'm currently working on updating pdfs from 1921 to 1949. this updating will include the following features:1. reduced file sizes.2.
Thanks for the effort, much appreciated. These sites are so rich and an absolute must for my personal study!
this thing that was my mother.
this thing that was my mother, so withered and blackened now,.
was once so kind and loving, but things have changed somehow.. remember when you'd hold me, and soothe my childhood fears?.
I have no words...

He arranged for Brothers to drive him from Munich to Belgium in order for him to make it to the memorial in Belgium.
it seems britain has voted to leave the eu in a move of total madness!
the markets are already in free fall and the moronic bigots who campaigned for this are celebrating the demise of our country .. i can't see how a 49-51% split can be democratic?
there is still the postal vote to come in, maybe there's hope in that?
From a Dutch perspective, I find this highly interesting:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-06-24/now-its-our-turn-geert-wilders-calls-dutch-referendum
Just as we warned, the historic British rejection of the EU's totalitarian rule has sparked renewed ambitions to leave the clutches of Brussels across Europe. First to congratulate Britain was Holland's Geert Wilders, who calls for a Dutch referendum as soon as possible...
Thursday, June 23, 2016, will go down in history as Britain’s Independence Day.
The Europhile elite has been defeated. Britain points Europe the way to the future and to liberation. It is time for a new start, relying on our own strength and sovereignty. Also in the Netherlands.
A recent survey (EenVandaag, Dutch television) shows that a majority of the Dutch want a referendum on EU membership. It also shows that more Dutch are in favour of exit than of remaining in the EU.
The Dutch people deserve a referendum as well. The Party for Freedom consequently demands a referendum on NExit, a Dutch EU exit.
As quickly as possible the Dutch need to get the opportunity to have their say about Dutch membership of the European Union.
Geert Wilders: “We want be in charge of our own country, our own money, our own borders, and our own immigration policy. If I become prime minister, there will be a referendum in the Netherlands on leaving the European Union as well. Let the Dutch people decide.”
well, thats it folks.. my identity on here has been rumbled and reported to the elders.
someone, somehow, has figured out that im a member of this site and - rather than speak to me - has promptly reported me to the elders.
i just feel sad for my daughter.
Don't believe konceptual99... I am pale.emperor.
i was raised in the cult, a 'golden boy' in jw about 15 years ago.
regular pioneer, went to pioneer school and then mts.
my dad is a gilead graduate and is still a serving elder.
Welcome here and thanks for your story 2True. Never enough of it on this forum!
Plato's cave was a very interesting analogy! At least we didn't run back from the fire to the shadows!
i know that some people on the board have experience of being mormons, so i would be interested in your feedback.
at church this afternoon it was an uncanny experience.
in the past i've read a lot about mormons, so i thought i was prepared in general for what it would be like.
I can understand the attraction. The Book of Mormon contains "Jehovah" twice.
