Some scans have been made regarding blood and birthdays in the new book that was released at this year´s conventions. As could be seen from the index of the book, there is an appendix on the topic of disfellowshipping. This as a topic that definitely concerns quite a few of this board. Would it be possible for someone to scan the contents of this appendix? It would be appreciated very much.

New Study Book???
by cinnamon1642 inbased on the glimpses of the new book "keep yourselves in god's love" i could forsee them suggesting that this be a 2nd study book with someone before they are baptized.
they will likely keep using "what does the bible really teach?
" as the 1st book, but that book ends with a chapter entitled "remain in god's love".

Thanks for sharing your story... I am gay too. Was an elder, and a model witness... Got married, had kids as well. I DA just 14 months ago, but became inactive in 2003... Coming out is the best decision, apart from leaving the witnesses, as I have ever done. Please feel free to send me a PM if you would like to.

in the annual totals the sum spent had great increases every year.
however is the evidence is quite clear about the recent fall of contributions - the result was the cut in watchtower and awake.

If The Society REALLY Cared About Gas Prices They'd Implement Program Now!
by minimus inthey are full of sh*t!
if i were a practicing jehovah's witness, i'd seriously take the governing body's words to heart immediately.
since they don't want to add any further burdens on us, i would not "wait on jehovah (them)" but instead i'd follow the spirit of their timely words and cut out one more meeting night and save gas money!

What a relief in Norway, not having to drive a few miles, at most, to the book study in your neighboorhood. The gas price yesterday, was above 10 dollars a gallon....

Film "Worlds Apart," screened in NYC - GO SEE IT
by NYCkid inhello, just want to highly recommend the danish film, "worlds apart" now being screend at the tribeca film festival in new york.
the acting is superb and the filmakers represent the witnesses accurately (to the "t") withoug making them appear fanatic.
after all, these are people sincere in their beliefs no matter how absurd.

Even within a country there are cultural differences. In my local congregation in Norway, not even moustaches were allowed, if you were enrolled at the TMS or wanted to have a privilege, e.g. do the microphone. I also found the hair abit too long for the elder. Also, I heard someone mention that some in the audience at the "assembly" in the movie, had banners, which is not allowed or encouraged by JWs For copyright reasons, I reckon, the literature displayed in the movie, are "fake". the Watchtower is entitled "On Guard" and I would think that if songs are featured, it would be "Kingdom songs" made up for the movie.... My guess though
