I wish them well. This is kind if sweet, considering this KH is likely the place they spend most time together. It is also likely the place they dream about having their wedding at and taking most of their outings to in the next 40 years or so.

Marriage Proposal in the Kingdom Hall
by Listener injust when you think you've seen it all comes another interesting use of a kingdom hall.a young man serenades his girlfriend with a song (possibly a watchtower song) from the stage through a microphone and backed by recorded music.
then he steps off the stage and gets down on one knee and proposes as he pulls out a ring from his coat pocket.
the large projector screen flashes up behind them with a picture of a sapphire and diamond ring.cameras capture the joyous moment as she accepts and they lock together in a loving hug.

"Jehovah" and the less emphasized "Jesus." WHY?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthere has always been less emphasis on jesus, and more on the name jehovah.
if jesus played for the wtbts baseball team, he would play right field.
he would be good enough to start but by playing right field, he wouldn't see too many baseballs hit his way.

In my opinion, the word Jehovah is used more like a brand for the wt product than as a reference to God. They only use the name Jesus when they recognize that he is supposed to be the leader of the Christian congregation.

New Member Of The Governing Body 24 Jan 2018
by pale.emperor injust seen this announced on reddit:.
ken cook was announced today at morning worship as the new member of the governing body.
i dont recall him from the broadcasts, but he was formally a helper on the writing committee as per https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/governing-body/.

I don't know Ken, but from the few facts I have read about him, it appears he is another born-in who has been institutionalized his entire adult life and has never had to make a living in the real world. I wonder if a big part of his decision to start partaking was for job security, since his prospects would be bleak outside the tower. Where else could he get a job writing cult propaganda?

Couple of real gems in the WT study for this upcoming weekend
by sir82 insince blondie seems to still be on sabbatical, i'll take the liberty of highlighting a couple of "gems" from this week's upcoming study, from the article "reject worldly thinking".. from paragraph 12:.
is it true that succeeding in a secular career that offers power and prestige leads to lasting happiness?
remember that the craving to control others and the longing to be admired are the desires that enticed satan, but he is angry, not happy.. .

These are indeed gems. Gaffs like gem 1 make me wonder if they are Freudian slips or if the writing department is slipping them in, knowing that the GB doesn't really care what's written.
At the annual meeting, Tony accused the r&f of not reading the magazines, which I took as an admission that he doesn't read them either. I think they each only care that their pet ideas are showcased, like Tony insisting they show wayward young brothers in tight pants, with one even stripping off his pants and hanging them on the wall for all to see. That obviously came from his sick mind and is his hallmark.
The GB members also don't have to suffer through WT studies. They are usually entertained on the weekends at assemblies or real estate dedications. After enjoying lunch hospitality they likely nap during the wt study, so they have the energy for their afternoon performance, likely dreaming of evening hospitality. Their rotund bellies and repetitiveness are the best evidence I can offer for this theory.

The lawyers could perhaps convince the helpers to stage a coup deta. They could explain that the “real” anointed died a long time ago and that the current slave pretenders are living proof that all who currently claim to be anointed are mentally disturbed.

His fixation on tight clothes is one symptom of this creep’s mental illness. How many years has he been harping on this?

Rutherford was deluded and narcissistic enough to believe that he was so important that the Japanese would want to bomb his house, yet he did not have enough faith to believe that J would protect him. The bunker stands below this house in a gated community in San Diego as testimony to his folly.

I’m not angry. But I’m sure glad I woke up from my stupor. I started waking up around 2010, then was really surprised by a talk I heard from Tony Morris. Then in 2012 I felt really bad about the apparent PTSD he displayed when talking about his nightmarish experiences in a Vietnam. Then when he gave his tight pants rant at the 2014 Annual Meeting I realized this lunatic is partially behind some of the insanity forced upon the r & f. Now I realize the other 6 are in no better shape really. I feel some pity toward them, but not much. I feel true empathy for those who have suffered some of the more extreme consequences of following terribly flawed men.
