  who appoints the writing staff at 'hovah hq?

  i ask because it would be cool if there was a way to replace these writers with ones who would start to put into print what we want to see.

  who, if any, of the gb decide what articles are used and what is not used?

  Sydlik was once named a member of the writing dept., that's all I know.

  is there any proof?

  I wish this serious point would not be destroyed by wild accusations, only serving to ruin your good cause. Soon, I guess it will be that "all Witnesses are child molesters".

  OK, so you claim to have Jaracz, and Chitty and Greenlees (although homosexual tendencies must be something different from child molester), who are the other two, since five has been stated?

  I'm not going to give you any welcomes or congratulations, to me that is a way too easy and light-hearted attitude. But I assure you I understand; have been there, and it is no pleasant situation. The surprise attack is hard to handle. They want a talk, and only at the very end of the invitation comes the word JC. No reasons, nothing to prepare for. One prepares in one's mind, but the accussation is something quite different. Quick thinking and keeping the sentences meanwhile meaning nothing, being empty words, while you at the same time think and then make the statements you have meanwhile figured out, helps. Thank you for the meeting, we'll meet with you again in some weeks. Why? To give the result. Meanwhile, business as usual. New meeting. For the first time, df'ing is mentioned. At the very end of it, no - we'll keep you. But you'll have to shut up for months, voice is not to be heard. Maybe we'll need another meeting.

  Man, are those weeks bad for your heart and sleep and stomach. Df'ing is hazardous to your health .........

  Yep, Kenneson, but as for me, I don't demand anything, neither much money nor a big house nor beautiful nature nor warmth nor acceptance, nor anything, but this one thing called LIFE, EXISTENCE.

  Man, do I love life, just the sheer thing of being alive!

  And man, does the thought of non-existence scare the shit out of me!
