  we are visiting down in province and my wife much to my displeasure on her last few visits has been donating money to the building of a new kingdom hall, of course this has been going on for a couple of years.

  well when they found out we had arrived, this elder comes around to visit and it wasnt hi how are you it was "hi i would like to offer you an opportunity to donate once again to our building fund", then he got around to asking how we were doing and were we enjoying our visit.

  what a buch of bull.

  Let me give you a bit of background here,...I went downtown (Tucson, AZ) and looked up the hall where I was affiliated with at the time. It was listed under 3 prominent elders names.

  I looked up my old kingdom hall too, and it is OWNER/IN CARE OF three elders in my old congregation as well. According to the warranty deed of trustee, and I was able to pull up the original document on the web that they all signed, and all three elders are each a truste of the declaration of trust and they all hold the actual title.

  When I was in college I was walking through the school parking lot and a guy was trying to push a chick in his car, I didn't know if the guy had a weapon, I ran after him. I helped in preventing it from happening, almsot died.

  i have read here how there are so few "new" items coming from the wts these days.

  that most all of the books, talks, wts, meetings, conventions, etc.

  are just repeats repackaged from ones gone by.

  The only thing your friend will be missing will be having the opportunity to show off that new dress or that new skirt to all her friends. The assemblies are jus one big catwalk. Gawd, I miss that about the conventions, the nice clothes

  Johnny Depp? Ian McKellan? Morgan Freeman?

  Who do you think is the best actor in movies today? My mom and I are huge (no laughing permitted) Ian Holm fans. A couple of years ago I saw him in The Sweet Hereafter and I was moved by his performance as the lawyer with the druggie daughter in the movie, he added a depth that I never saw in another performance even though most people will remember him as Bilbo Baggins. I heard he's going to play Pope John Paul II in a new movie. I think that's great range in itself. Who else do you think is on par?

  Jehovah's Witnesses: How Their Subculture is Fading Away.

  i am old enough to remember the days when conventions lasted many long days and large.

  numbers of brothers were employed in preparing hot meals served on trays, army-style.

  also recall how good these steam cooked meals tasted - and how policemen, assigned to.

  ..Heck, even the Mormons have their own University!

  JW's don't necessarily leave behind a physical culture per se, because I was thinking about this the other day, instead they Primarily leave behind their mark on history in terms of the creation of certain laws which made their niche into American society like the flag salute issue, the medical stuff, how they've used the legal system to their advantage, etc.... Secondarily, they've given people lots of chuckles with all the ways they've been made fun of (movies, cartoons, the far side, Michael Jackson, etc...).
