i think that followers like to be told what to do by others who like to tell what to do and that this is a mighty fine idea for all and any who who want to be in line to get what the others say they will get if they do what they say they should do to the the others who like to hear what it is that they should be doing from the ones doing the telling about to the ones who are listening to the those who to them that say that their voice should be adhered to by followers who follow to the bitter end of a very long sentence

Identifying the Abusive System
by DanTheMan inthis is taken from chapter 5 of the book the subtle power of spiritual abuse :.
"the first characteristic of an abusive religious system is what we call power-posturing.
power-posturing simply means that leaders spend a lot of time focused on their own authority and reminding others of it, as well.

I am really not being obtuse.
Why do you say to add 70 years on to 1935?
The article talks about the destruction of Jerusalem in 70CE, is that what you mean. Why does that suggest to add on 70 years to 1935?

Meat Pie - I am in the north of Scotland too!!!! Please email me, I would really like to hear from you. It is amazing to think that there are real live apostates so near by. (I am still a Jehovah's Witness by the way)

I am at a complete loss. How do you figure from the above quotes that the society are now pointing to 2005?
Beaten, corrupted, dying
In his own blood lying
Yet heaves up an eye above
Cries, Love, love.
It is his virtue needs explaining,
Not his failing.Stevie Smith

Hi,
I am new to this forum, but I have been lurking for a while. You all seem pretty friendly, I hope you will be nice to me even though I am still a Jehovah's Witness.I wonder if you all have heard about the new arrangement for putting in field service reports. Now instead of putting the slip into the box at the back of the hall the book study conductor is supposed to collect it at the group. I think that this is a way to boost the number of publishers reporting. I think that it will work in two ways:
1. It means that people will be much more likely to forget, or rather the study conductor will go after them to get it.
2. People will make a special effort to go out because they don't want to turn up at the group and have to admit that they have not been out that month.
Is it working? In Britain it certainly has! In the May Kingdom Ministry the number of publishers for January (the month the scheme was introduced) has jumped up dramatically. Last year in January there was only 118 000 reporting, this year there was 123 000!
Could someone else look in the American Kingdom Ministry to see if the same thing has happened?
