There is no way he did not get a reprimand when he went by the Chairman's office after finishing his talk! That is one of the most appalling things I have ever heard from a speaker! Utterly disgusting!

the speaker first starts with what he called the "alphabet soup" of degrees....a.a., b.a., m.a., ph.d., etc.

The best CO ever was W.J. Kalandros, I believe he is in So. Cal area now. He and his wife Rosalyn (Roz) were truly genuine people who knew how to have a good time.

New Watchtower format is all because of Blondie!
by drew sagan ini was just reading a thread about the new 'exciting' format for the watchtower and how there will be a jw only edition.
add to this what i believe is the new rule that da'd and df'd people are not allowed to receive the magazines unless they attend meetings.
this all got me thinking.... .

I so look forward to Blondie's "between the lines" commentary every week! It helps me to sit through one of the five most boring hours of the week with my senses in order!
Thanks Blondie and keep up the GOOD work!

Hambeak- Sounds to me like this would be an excellent experience of "informal witnessing" to share at the next CA, Saturday after lunch during the 15 minute "Experiences" part. Good Job!!!

Our Watchtower Study On obedience & submission
by dark angle inyesterday we have a study of the watchtower about obedience and submission.
this study arose a lot of questions and heightened emotions in me and the interested retired judge sitting besides me.
we came accross the 9th pharagraph, page 28 of the april 1, 2007, where it says that: "it is easy to obey when everything is clear and we agree, but we will show that we are trully submissive if we yeild even when we do not personally understand the direction provided.

Sitting through that lesson yesterday was the most uncomfortable experience I have ever had in a meeting! Just imagine what they will be spewing begining with the Jan '08 "members only" issue! One positive note, our conductor had a very hard time finding raised hands in the audience. Something tells me that I was not the only one who felt uncomortable with what was being studied.

The say there is not clergy/layety distinction in the org. However, when it comes to hiding their paedophile paradise from the public, they claim penitential privilege. What hypocrites!!

Religious fanatics do not inspire good feelings or thoughts. His vitriolic comments regarding gay people, women involved in the feminist movement, and just about everybody who did not share his particular religious viewpoints put him in the company of the religious fanatics in the muslim world. I don't have feelings of sadness in his passing.
