i first noticed it today... slides up at the bottom.
i wonder why they felt the need to do this?
this is just silly for a religious website..
Maybe this is the sort of thing the Watch Tower Society is trying to stop...

A TOP Jehovah's witnesses' world leader has bemoaned politicians' failure to fulfill campaign promises.
Stephen Lett, who gave a keynote speech at the on-going convention held at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola, said politicians needed to meet the aspirations of people who vote them into public offices.
Meanwhile, conversion overseer John Mashilipa has urged fellow witnesses to respect the government of the day, obedient and continue remaining non-partisan.
In the keynote address streamed live from Solwezi District in the North-Western Province, Mr Lett, one of the seven members of the world governing body said electorates expected much from the people they vote for.
"There is need for politicians to fulfill their promises to their voters once they assumed power," he said.
He observed that most politicians failed to fulfill promises to their voters who had high expectations.
"Politicians usually promise a moon and not deliver to their promises, this is disappointing to the voters who have high expectations," he said.
Mr Mashilipa said believers needed to seek God's Kingdom which he said never fails, unlike human governance.
This year's conversion attracted a historic attendance of more than 40,000 people from across the five districts in the province namely; Ndola, Kitwe, Luanshya, Mufulira, Kalushi and Chambishi.
Gathered under the theme 'Keep seeking first God's Kingdom', witnesses filled the stadium and those who could not find seats monitored proceedings from outside. About 1,000 witnesses got baptised.
Despite the multitude of witnesses, order and calmness charicterised the event that had four sections running simultaneously in Bemba, English,Chinese and American sign language .
why would they remove bible verses from the bible?.
anyone knows why?.

the jws make such a big deal about not taking (eating) blood in any form.
that being the case, shouldn't they avoid eating steaks?
even a well- done steak still contains the animals blood.
This subject was discussed before the Senate of Australia 15 years ago. Note the responses from the Watchtower and Jehovah's Witnesses representatives, Donald MacLean and Vincent Toole.

*** g96 5/8 p. 23 Killer Virus Strikes Zaire *** [Awake! magazine, May 8, 1996]
BY AWAKE! CORRESPONDENT IN AFRICA
KIKWIT, Zaire, is a sprawling town on the fringe of a tropical rain forest. Forty-two-year-old Gaspard Menga Kitambala, who lived outside the city, was the only Witness of Jehovah in his family. Menga was a seller of charcoal. He prepared his charcoal deep in the forest, bundled it up, and carried it on his head to Kikwit.
On January 6, 1995, he felt ill. He fell twice on his way home from the forest. When he reached his home, he said that he had a headache and a fever.
Over the next few days, his condition deteriorated. On January 12, his family took him to Kikwit General Hospital. The Witnesses in Menga’s congregation helped the family to care for him at the hospital. Sadly, his condition worsened. He began to vomit blood. Blood flowed uncontrollably from his nose and ears. On January 15, he died.
Soon others in Menga’s family who had touched his body became sick. By early March, 12 people closely related to Menga had died, including his wife and two of their six children.
By mid-April, hospital staff and others began to sicken and die in a way similar to Menga and his family. Quickly the illness spread to two other towns in the region. Clearly, outside help was needed.
Professor Muyembe, Zaire’s top virologist, went to Kikwit on May 1. He later told Awake!: “We concluded that Kikwit was suffering from two epidemics: one was diarrhea caused by bacteria, and the other was a severe hemorrhagic fever caused by a virus. Of course, we needed to confirm this diagnosis. So we collected some blood from patients and sent it to be tested at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, U.S.A.”
The CDC confirmed what Muyembe and other doctors in Zaire had already suspected. The disease was Ebola.

Thousands of foreign visitors will this month come to Zimbabwe to attend the first international convention of Jehovah's Witnesses to be held at the National Sports Stadium in Harare.
More than 5000 delegates from as far as the United States, Europe, Latin America and African countries will descend on Zimbabwe international convention to be held from the 22 to the 24th of August.
In the past, national conventions were held and this is the first time it has gone international with Zimbabwe being chosen to host on behalf of Africa.
Some of the delegates are already in the country and figures from the tourism and hospitality industry show that all major hotels are fully booked for the duration of the conference.
Convention overseer, Mr Effort Mugabe said apart from delegates from Brazil, Germany and other African countries such as Kenya, Burundi and Morocco, 2000 will come from the United States.
“We are happy that visitors from all over the world will converge in Zimbabwe. This is the first convention in Africa and we expect to host between 35000 to 40000 delegates, with America sending 2000 delegates. I can also confirm that everything is in now place for the convention," he said.
The convention, which was arranged by the governing body of the Jehovah's Witnesses, will be held under the theme; ‘Keep Seeking First God's Kingdom.'
The church, which is also known as Watch Tower, is popular for street evangelism and believes God's kingdom will bring to an end all the sufferings the earth is experiencing.
The church also has kingdom halls in almost every suburb of towns and cities and some rural areas.
In Zimbabwe alone, there are nearly 40000 Jehovah's Witnesses.
