After my sister graduated high school, my father made her stop pioneering to go to school briefly. She was working some dead end job and pioneering and my father saw the future in that and put a stop to it immediately. He didn't mind her going back to pioneering after she finished school, but he didn't want her to be like others he saw who were either waiting on a husband or broke as a joke all the while pioneering. He always said "they don't give a darn about you", they referring to the WT. She pioneered a little while longer after finishing school, but then got married and has only auxilliary pioneered off and on since. She thanks our pop till this day.

THIS NEEDS ITS OWN THREAD:: TODAY's WT Paragraph 16
by Lied2NoMore inhere is what got my spidey senses tingling: paragraph 16, reference to daniel p mannix book, was wondering if his statement was mis-quoted so i did my research.......but was even more shocked when i saw this: .
from amazon dot com reviews................ probably the most provocative work of historical fiction published this century,"those who are about to die" is pure mannix at his best.
a uncensured exploration of what likely took place in the circuses of ancient rome.

lol at "if you liked Caligula, you'll love Those About to Die". Picturing Stephen Lett making those crazy faces he does while watching Caligula Special Edition DVD scenes in slow motion.

Seriously? The book was fiction? Wow. During that paragraph I was thinking about HBO's Rome series. Been meaning to give it a watch. Guess my thinking wasnt far off from whoever wrote this paragraph referencing a fiction book. wow.

I'm wondering if the quick meet the OP is referring to is a quick meeting held due to the info we already had here being late getting back to them, or maybe that country has legal peculiarities which called for an adjustment from what they'd previously been instructed.

Only thing I can say is during our CO visit some months back, at the Friday meeting after the ministerial servants were dismissed, the CO went over an outline/letter he had "from mother" per his own words which was about pedophilia. I dont remember hardly any of the particulars except at one point he asked out loud in more of a statement kind of way, "we don't discourage ones in the congregation from going to the secular authorities, right brothers?" It was kinda weird because it was like he was playing cleanup over something that was previously misconstrued. At the same time the way he said it came off like he almost wanted to wink at us in a good ol boy way. Like, "right brothers?

During the WT study a brother on his way to the bathroom asked if I was going out after the meeting. Translation: He wants me to go out in service and help him get his time as he's auxilliary pioneering this month. Initially I responded yeah why not. After the meeting was over I had a change of heart as my stomach is a little sensitive and my head feels off like I'm trying to catch a bug. Told him maybe next week. Feels good to be home alone with my own thoughts. Glad not to be disturbing people this afternoon.
