Not only are the GB members all men, but they're all WHITE!
There is one member of the GB who is not white. His name is Samuel Hurd/Herd?

Contradictions-1/1/02 WT
by Mister Biggs inscanned for your convenience.. contradiction #1:.
um, doesn't the gb elevate itself above the so-called 'rank and file'?
not to mention the elders, the minsterial servants, the pioneers, auxillary pioneers, co's, do's, and attendants.

society cutting costs?!
by greven ini was wondering if you noticed the society cutting costs.. for example : the books are now printed on cheaper paper and have a soft cover.
also subscriptions are no longer mailed by post but will be brought to you by publishers (cutting cost and upping field service!
to flies in one!).

According to the letter read at the KH once your current subscription expires is when it will stop shipping to your home. Somewhere printed on the magazine cover has the expiration date printed.
After that time all magazines will only be able to be obtained from the KH.
It was spun as a process change in the US to get more in line with how the mags are distributed in other countries. It was made to appear that US is the only place where mags are still mailed to homes.
But if you do the math on the estimated cost to mail just to publishers alone in the US it becomes very clear its about the money in my opinion.

Did The Generation Change Silence Apostates?
by Englishman inhere is a paragraph from the1997 august 1st.watchtower re the generation change:.
"recently, 'the faithful and discreet slave' has helped us to refine our understanding of the term 'generation' used at matthew 24:34 and of the timing of the judgment of 'the sheep' and 'the goats' mentioned at matthew 25:31-46, as well as of our view toward certain types of civilian service.
no doubt some apostates would have been delighted if many of jehovah's witnesses had stuck rigidly to the previous understanding of such subjects and refused to progress.

What are some of your favorite urban legends?
by BQE inmine is the story of a lady who was witnessing alone in an apartment building, and aparently she knocked on the door of some rapists/murderers/drug dealers......whatever......she was "saved" by two angels, only visible to the attackers, that accompanied her on that visit.
.
or how about the one where a householder had his finger on the trigger of a gun and was just about to pull it when.....all of a sudden....out of nowhere (drumroll please) a witness knocked on his door and offered him "the promise of everlasting life in the new system of thingstm"!!
