It doesn't matter was Jesus thinks... Tony the Turd is in charge now...
in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?
)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.
wow.

re: thirty-hour quota for auxiliary pioneering.
Do they still have the dirty thirty arrangement?
will that now include helping elderly ladies cross the street?
but no girls allowed!
as of january, women won't be accepted as volunteers, at any of the job sites!.
it has to do with the rooming arrangements.
Guys tend to slow down at work when they fall in love with a co-worker. Maybe there's been too much flirting and not enough hammer swinging.
recently shared this with me.. they compared the tiredness they felt after attending an assembly and meetings, and noted how much worse it was than actually working and studying hard for hours for their secular employment!
why were they so exhausted after an assembly/meeting?
no, it wasn't satan.
You guys never had to endure Frederick Franz reading a Spanish outline at less than half the normal speech rate for well over 1 hour and then coming back at the end of the DC to give his final 'snore-fest' closing talk just before the "We Thank You Jay Hoover" song that woke everyone up at the end...
I did !!!
I should get a medal...

i've seen references to baptism annulment on a few websites, does anyone know if there has ever been a successful annulment of a baptism?.
eg.
a minor claims they didn't understand a key wtbts teaching prior to baptism, is there any realistic chance of annulment?
last circuit assembly there was 700+ present and 1 baptized.. recently there was a foreign language assemble of over 500 and 1 baptized.. in the last 5-10 years i haven't been to one assembly where there has been more than a handful baptized.
at the memorial all i see are the same old faces that have been coming since the flood.. the hall complex i attend has 6 congregation and several groups-there is negative growth.
when you factor in the demographically aging folk and the many who have already passed away, i don't know where they get the 8 million.. i know that most of the growth is from the developing countries, but still i think they are fudging their numbers.
i've decided to go full public with a new username on this forum.
it's been almost a decade since i've been out and i don't care at this point who knows.
that being said, here's a letter that i'm mailing to bethel.
Here is the Service Department's procedure for mailed-in inquiries:
Your letter will NOT be read carefully and the letter you receive from them will be totally irrelevant. This will be just another exercise in futility.
