  i was asked if i knew of any jdubs within my congregation that could help out counting the money for this years regional convention, imitate christ.

  so i gave a few names and included my wife, i was hoping for her to wake up and see how the org is all about the money in the back room.

  do you think it woke her up a bit?

  I remember one convention in the 80's at Belmont Racetrack in New York where there was so much donation money coming in that we actually ran out of table space and literally had to dump huge piles of cash on the floor. It took several hours just to get the creases out, face them up and sort the bills before we even started the first round of counting. There was probably more cash moving at this convention than the MGM (Las Vegas) during the Pacquiao / Mayweather fight..

  But I have a feeling those WT glory days are long gone.

  Geoffrey Jackson's Golden Apple watch INVESTIGATED

  by C0ntr013r in

  i went through the original footage to get a good look at the watch.. from these pictures we can probably say that it is a apple watch and that it has a golden color.

  the color on the pin is black, and the band is white, grey, silvery or beige.. .

  the pin is in the exact place for it to be a apple watch.. only apple watch edition have the gold color.

  The 18-karat gold Apple Watch Edition isn't easy to find, buy, or even try on.

  It will also difficult to return, too.

  According to a new report from 9to5Mac's Mark Gurman, the Apple Watch Edition has a unique return process.

  Here it is, step-by-step, based on an alleged internal document:

  1. Apple will first inspect the watch with "extreme care" to "ensure that the product is in original condition, isn't engraved, and has no signs of damage or tampering."
  2. Then, a member of Apple's Genius Bar will give the Watch an even closer inspection using special tools like microscopes and a gold weight scale, "to ensure that no gold has been removed from the Watch to be sold on secondary markets," according to Gurman.
  3. Once the Watch has passed inspection from the Genius Bar staffer, the return process can only be handled by Apple Store managers.
  4. Apple asks its managers to store all the returned gold watches in "tamper-evident Apple Watch Edition return bags," which will be sent to Apple's corporate offices.

  The Apple Watch Edition also falls under the company's standard return policy, which says you can return the device with its included accessories and packaging along with the original receipt within 14 days of receiving the product, and Apple will exchange it or give you a refund based on your original payment method. Also, you can only return products in the country in which you bought them, and for transactions over $750 — like the Apple Watch Edition — Apple will mail you a refund check within 10 business days.

  What Qualifications does Geoffrey Jackson have as a Translator of the Bible ? In any Capacity ?

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  geoffrey jackson left school at the age of 15 and began pioneering , he never attended a university ,never studied ancient greek ,hebrew or aramaic at any recognized teaching academy , he has no certificates or credentials / qualifications from any place of learning that is approved by a competent body of religious instruction .. and by his own words at the australian royal commission , under oath he stated that was his primary role as a translator of scripture into other languages .. a 15 year old drop out from school in australia is the chief/ prime translator of the bible for jehovah`s witnesses world wide in their many languages that they preach in .. it would be very interesting to see his report cards for those few years he did attend school .. is it just me , or does anybody else see that his qualifications don`t come up to scratch to be a translator of the old testament or the new testament scriptures , and be taken seriously as a translator of either , into any language.. if i am wrong anywhere in this post feel free to correct me .. smiddy.

  What woke you up?

  by Israel Ricky Gonzales in

  2. experiences

  in march of 2014, i was a very active jw, a ministerial servant, gave a public talk, was an attendant for the memorial, and one of 4 cleaning captains for an international convention of 40,000+ attendees.

  so what woke me up?

  an innocent comment from a co-worker about the candice conti court case rang a bell that could not be unrung.

  at our meeting last night there was a talk about having run out of magazines for the last three months.

  it's expected this will continue to happen.

  the "branch" has not sent the requested number of magazines.

  Well how the fuck are the GB members supposed to maintain their rock star life style if the rank and file don't fork over what they're supposed to for their Litter-A-Trash and rags? Rolex, Gold Apple watches and cuff links aren't cheap you know...

  That $15,000 Gold Apple Watch could have easily been paid for using all of Haiti's worldwide work contribution money from 2014. What a fine witness and a fitting example of how to "Imitate Jesus!" ...

  "I am Happy to be Controlled" - Edinburgh Elder on Cult Cart

  so my wife and i were up in edinburgh for the weekend for the international festival - we had a great weekend including going to see the military tattoo at the castle.. we were walking up the royal mile watching the street performers among hundreds of thousands of others from all over the world when i spotted the cult cart in it's usual spot being universally ignored.

  feeling confident after my confrontation a couple of weeks ago we decided to go and have a chat with the two men.

  i asked them if they were keeping up with the events in australia and proceeded to share lots of information with them.
