It's sad how your brother used your essay to gain points with the elders. He could have just tried to talk to you about this. But, like many with "aspirations", he used his own flesh and blood to gain status.

The college newspaper article from 1989 that got me kicked, at last
by Suraj Khan inmany months ago, i shared the experience of my removal from jehovah's witnesses.
to quickly recap, i had faded from meetings as an unbaptized publisher starting at about age 14 and had later decided to attend college against the wishes of my family.
as i liked to write stories, i sought a job at the college newspaper and became a columnist.. i brought some of my newspapers home during the winter break of my sophomore year, the one time i visited my parents during college.

Blondie... thanks... but I already know all about the OLD 32-page Trinity brochure that is no longer being printed...
My question (in my OP) is this: WAS IT REPLACED BY A THINNER VERSION?
(a JW on YouTube is saying that a thinner brochure has replaced it and I just want to call her bluff since I've nevr heard of this... and apparently no one here has heard of it either... I'll patiently wait a few days before I call her bluff... just want to make certain)

So I was debating with a JW on YouTube the other day, calling out all of the misqoutes and dishonesty in the 32-page "Should You Believe in the Trinity" brochure as the reason this brochure was discontinued and this JW responds: "Well we have a new bochure. It's thinner but it has all the NEW Light."
Has anyone ever heard of this replacement trinity brochure??? How many pages does it now have??? What year was it published ???
Thanks!!

Pioneer 1: Let's move the table back into the shade.
Pioneer 2: That's too much trouble, let's just go in the store and get some AC...

Don't do it.
Dont't give those 8 delusional men in Brooklyn any more power than they already have?
Also, what makes you think that you're accountable to men?

Probably the most bizarre encounter with a witness family.
by Dis-Member inwent to a bar with a friend a few days ago.. we were sitting in the outside garden and i went back inside to get another round.
on my way back out i passed some tables with a family of about 6 or 7 people sitting and celebrating a birthday.. i overheard the name jehovah mentioned and i stopped and asked if they were witnesses to which one of them replied 'yes'.. we got into conversation about the latest watchtowers and the governing body.
none of them had a clue what i was talking about.. they new nothing of the 8 men brooklyn being the faithful and discreet slave, nothing about c.t russell or rutherford, nothing of how jesus came and selected them as his chosen people in 1914-19, in fact the only thing they knew about 1914 was that that was when the first world war started, nothing about malawi and mexico, never heard of candace conti or any of the sex abuse scandals, nothing about the 2 witness rule, nothing about the elders being chosen by the holy spirit, nothing about 'new light', nothing about the orgs involvement with the un, nothing about the blood fractions changes they knew almost nothing at all about the majority of their own organisations core teachings.

DubYap - What is it ?
by EdenOne infrom wikidub:.
"dubyap is the technical terminology or characteristic idiom of the very special religious group known as jehovah's witnesses.
as philosopher condillac observed in 1782, "every [religion] requires a special language, because every [religion] has its own ideas ... it seems that one ought to begin by composing this language, but people begin by speaking and writing, and the language remains to be composed.

Yeah, there's an app for that!
by DNCall inif you search on "jehovah" in the app store on iphone, you will find some amazingly telltale apps that reveal the kind of thinking fostered within jw culture.. to quote from one called ministry school timer: "the bible highlights timer allows you to not only time the bible highlights but also to time each individual comment, which also counts them and averages them.
each comment time will appear in a list and those over 30 seconds long will appear in red.
" so now brother school overseer can ream the brothers with precision when they go overtime on their comments.. another one called my time offers: ".
