The primary use of the Internet at the Kingdom Hall should be for theocratic purposes. Hence, if a publisher were to use the Kingdom Hall connection to access inappropriate websites, his connectivity privilege would be revoked.
Is jehovahs-witness.com considered inappropriate?

If a project request is approved, it will then be determined whether the congregation has the means to cover the expense before funding is provided by the branch office.
So what happened to all the surplus amounts of money sent. Shouldn't those cover these needed project expenses? I call double-dipping.

Rented Facilities: If a congregation needs to rent a facility for long-term use as a Kingdom Hall, the elders should contact the Local Design/Construction Department. If a congregation needs to rent a facility for a one-time use, such as for the Memorial, the elders should follow the instructions provided in Renting Facilities for Theocratic Events (TO-19).
Renting a kingdumb hall for long-term use is a current thing? Or is it becoming more common as they sell off the halls?

It's a flip-flop. Lol
most witnesses i knew were exteeemly reluctant to go out in the ministry.
but when they did, they were simply scraping by, eager to avoid conflict and just do their hour or so speaking to lonely old ladies or widowed old men.
placing magazines in a car group, doing route calls, plodding along in the utter boredom of their responsibility to get some time on a report by the last day of the month.. this was never a warning work.
I agree, it's all just a big social group to many people. Plain and simple. .
we all know that education is severely demonized in this religion.
and that the elders are appointed based on how many meetings they attend, hours they put in on the ministry and general attitude to other elders (as apposed to, you know, actual theological training and counseling) - so my question is, what were your elders occupations outside the kingdom hall?.
in my old congregation our elders consisted of:.
Well, we are talking about the elders...
i am curious as to what current religion is similar in beliefs and organization to jw's.
