It could be that if there are active apostates preaching in the area they probably quote from old publications, and so they want to prepare a counter argument from the same publications. if that's the case maybe it will backfire and help some on the school to wake up.

Strange letter to local congregations
by Syme inthis summer i saw on the bulletin board of a specific kh a strange letter, the info of which i'd like to share with you.. it came not from the gb or the branch office, but from the local evangelizers school.
what it said was roughly this:.
because they want to enrich the school's library, they ask from the brothers in the region (i.e.

I look most days on my phone. Often just quick look thru the topics and a more detailed read of the ones that interest me. I only usually post if I think I've got anything to add to the conversation - so probably not very often!

Discussion with 2 Elders about IS
by Da.Furious insome will notice i was really busy during the weekend, thats true as some jws will say i was in a spiritual paradise surrounded by brothers.. my view of a paradise is everybody living in harmony and happy, my weekend experience was more like unhappy people and complaining about almost everything, not to mentioned the quite discussion in the corners (i.e.
gossips).. anyway, during on the discussions, the is (islamic state) topic was started.
it all started when on the elders said that he prefers to talk to muslims in the ministry since they are more open minded and accept our teaching.. i dont come from a muslim background but lived among them enough to understand what they believe.

Reading some of the posts on this subject does leave me wondering if some of us are indeed mentally diseased. Is our hatred for the wtbts so obsessive that it blinds us to human empathy. If these parents were atheists would half of you be judging them as patronisingly as you are now? Would you have jumped to the conclusions you have because this family are in some way linked to the JWs? you criticise dubs for lack of independent thinking For being sheep. Here is a father who has done some independent research and is moving mountains to do the best for his son. There was no reason for those parents to believe they were committing a crime. This guy is a hero In my eyes. Doing exactly what fathers and mothers are supposed to do - protect their kids in any way they know how With whatever resources they have available.
Sorry for the rant but many of the responses on this subject do make me wonder.

Please help....in a dilemma..
by crazyhorse inplease help with this: when i was in college, there was a lot of talk about university and how all who pursue that are wasting their time and all that.
even before going to uni, there was a lot of pressurr on me concerning my decision.
during that time, two elders sat with me for appointment as ms and asked me if i have freedom of speech in the org since i'm going to uni and i said no.

What everyone else said. I was a MS for two years before fading. Unfortunately for me they just sprang it on me on the night it was announced even when I had ignored their pleas to shave off my beard so I could be appointed. It will be a weight around your neck unless you really believe it all.

How patronising, judgemental and biased we can be eh? That's ironic too. At risk of repetition:
The UK is investing £250m in two proton therapy centres one in London and one in Manchester but they're not expected to be available until 2018. child brain tumours and rare adult cancers are seen as the main issues to benefit from this therapy. I personally can't criticise this father for trying to do the best for his son And I don't think it was foolhardy at all. None of us can imagine what it is like in his place right now.

Totally cringeworthy weekend of Facebook smugness.
by quellycatface inlast night i was looking at some of my ex-friends photos of the assembly in twickenham.. the smugness is palpable.
the smiles do not reach their eyes, however.
everyone is swathed in shawls, men with jumpers under their suits and it all looks very stiff.. anyone else seen any of these photo calls?

Yes I had the pleasure of seeing my friend, ex bethalite and promiscuous homosexual, (out of the org for years but still pretends to himself and people that don't know his circumstances that he's a JW) posting 24 photos of his cheesy smiles with the cheesy smiles of people who would shun him if they knew what he was. His hypocrisy made me feel sick and my knee jerk reaction was to defriend him on facebook.
