Select a book along the left side and choose "preview"... can't remember what the button says, but in the preview view, I seem to remember a button in the right hand corner that allowed me to save the book without entering my credit card and name details.

2013 District Convention Headquarters Addresses, Dates, List!

by Atlantis in

2013 district convention headquarters, addresses-united states and canada..this list is 10 pages long containing the addresses and above some of the locations you will see dates, such as, (june 15-18) or something like that.

i think those dates indicate when the convention will be held at that location.

help me out if i am wrong on that.

...o...m...g

Can I tell you how much a few non-jws would love to go knocking on the doors of these addresses to talk about religion at random hours and days of the week? And there IS NO centralized, "do not visit" list in my world.

wow...

CO disfellowshipped, Central Coast, Australia

by WinstonSmith in

hi guys,.

i was just looking through www.reddit.com/r/exjw and there is a thread that was posted about four hours ago with the title "so our circuit overseer just got disfellowshipped" and there some basic details in their op.

the location is given as central coast, australia, which is north of sydney.. there aren't many more details other than "it has sent shockwaves throguh the congregations" and a query on the protocol in situations like this.

NeverKnew

I guess theres a chance that these announcement are posted by JWs to flush out people who are visiting unauthorized sites.

Am I right?

New F&DS Light question

by ItsMyLife in

i have a question about the implications of the new light regarding the f&ds.

sorry if it sounds complicated, i'm not good at explaining things.. .

if the f&ds is now just the few brothers who get together to dispense the food at the proper time, and the f&ds will be appointed over all of christ's belongings, then does that mean they will be appointed above the rest of the 144,000 when they go to heaven?

NeverKnew

So, the fds USED to be all annointed when the numbers were decreasing but when all these new partakers came on the scene who were labelled as mental patients, two groups had to be formed so that the shepherded flock didnt have to worry about being led by crazy people.

Is that the gist?

What happens when you argue with JW's?

by Terry in

i can't claim 100% recall, certainly.

jw: "they are imperfect.

jw: "i don't know of any other place to go that has something better.".

NeverKnew

Me: "Oh, I see. David claimed his adultry was commanded by Jehovah? David claimed killing Uriah the Hittite was required by Jehovah? David was punished for trying to do God's will and being mistaken about it?"

I LOVED THIS!

What if you are expected by God to help downtrodden people and instead you are only a glorified magazine saleman? What if the only effective thing you have done your whole life is put money into the hands of people in Brooklyn NY who buy real estate, invest in stocks, wield power over hapless people and change their minds at regular intervals and pass it off as flashes of revelation from god?"

OUCH!
