Back in the day I made some awesome laminated bookmarks with the book study schedule printed on them, I could've been selling them instead of just handing them out to everyone in the book study group!

April 2011 Awake page 27: Abuse ignored because of misguide loyalty....
by NVR2L8 ini rarely look at any wt publications anymore, but under watching the world, april 2011 awake quotes a newspaper article that blames the covering of sexual abuse on the misguided loyalty to the absolute authority of the catholic church.
i couldn't help thinking of the many cases of child abuse amongst jws that have been swept under the rug for the exact same reason - the absolute authority of the fds!
they have no shame pointing their finger at others when in fact they are as bad...if not worse in mistreating the victims of abuse.

They still have the nerve to print stuff condemning the Catholics over their sex abuse scandal???? Unbelievable!!

Official WT website explanation of refusal of blood. Not much of an explanation.
by ThomasCovenant inthis is the jw-media.org official explanation of why witnesses refuse blood transfusions.
it strikes me as being a little weak in its explanation.
''our view of medical care.

Since the Bible makes no clear statement about the use of minor blood fractions or the immediate reinfusion of a patient's own blood during surgery, a medical process known as blood salvaging, the use of such treatments is a matter of personal choice.
So if these are a matter of personal choice, other uses of blood are not a personal choice? Witnesses have to do as the Watchtower commands? I think that's what they are saying here.

Milton Henschel was President of the Watchtower Society from December 30, 1992 until his death on March 22, 2003.
Not to be nit picky, but this is not correct. Henshel resigned as President of the Society back in 2000.

IS THE GOVERNING BODY NOW THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE?
by Vanderhoven7 in.
i know the anointed never get consulted.
but is it true that the governing body has modified the definition of the faithful and discreet slave to exclusively apply to themselves and to not include the thousands of other anointed..

the GB are also the executive directors of the Watchtower Publishing Corporation.
Uh, no they're not, they all resigned as Corporation executives back in 2000. I believe the current president of the Watch Tower Society is Don Adams, not a GB member.

Major legal break through in the Uk that will affect the JW's
by highdose inhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1353703/double-glazing-firm-knocking-door-exasperated-homeowner-landmark-ruling.html.
this is a man who had cold callers coming to his home.
at first nothing could be legaly done about it, but now it can and house holders now have a legal right to refuse cold callers coming to their home and by law this must be obeyed.. i wonder what impact this will have on the jw's and also their policy of calling once a year even if they have been told not to??

The door-to-door work, while once a major part of being a JW, is now a very minor aspect of what it is to be a witness. Its an exercise in futility, if it goes away it will not change anything. They will find some other ways to "count some time" that will be just as ineffective and pointless but will make them feel like they are "preachers".

2011 Yearbook - "Tracing All Things with Accuracy"
by pirata in2011 yearbook - "tracing all things with accuracy", p.9-13.
jesus said that the faithful slave would be discreet in giving the domestics "their food at the proper time.
" christ thus indicated that those who dispense this "food" would be conscientious, prudent, and discerning in providing spiritual food for the household of faith.-matt.

Wow this article is so full of mistakes, its like shooting fish in a barrel.
How about the life stories where a witness relates how he was first contacted by the Bible Students in the very early 1900s and was told by the Bible Students that Jesus presence had begun in 1914? It doesn't take much "research" to know that up until the 30s they taught that Jesus' invisble presence began in 1874.
I predict this thread will go on for dozens of pages.

Something's been on my mind...
by Vidiot in..., and while i usually contribute in a thread that's already been created, i thought this particular topic might warrant it's own.. like many of you, on friday i was persusing the "concerned elder speaks" thread about higher-ed and the gb's ross/rachel relationship with it, and a couple of posts caught my eye:.
room 215 - "that's it, boys; alienate the remaining elders, drive them to resign and exacerbate the shortage already underway.".
baltar447 - "it's like they want fewer elders and servants.".

Marvin, there is something not quite right with your notes, how would the Sept. 1, 1925 Watchtower have the Memorial attendance for 1928?

This is nothing new in Watchtower land. This kind of article could have been printed anytime over the last 20-30 years.
