I also read the report and found it highly unnecessary of the person writing it to make such an ignorant remark.. That, however, do not destroy the fact that they do help... And JWs are humans too, when they are helped, other charities can concentrate and helping others thus more are helped altogether..

I once read a booklet published by a non-witness journalist on quick builds. I think it was published in Canada and entitled "Weekend Miracle". It was stated that it all started as a "grass root" project in the Mid West.

why do some constantly state that the study editions are so dubious as the witnesses are intent on hiding them... After all, they are accessible to all for mp3 and pdf downloading at their website....

still it would give a non-witness who might read this an impression that the witnesses are far more tolerant than in reality.

BBC Programme on JW youth
by InquiryMan inhas anyone in the uk seen this programme.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00p4dyl.
unfortunately, non-uk residents are not able to watch this transmission on internet...is there anyone who might see it who would download it somehow and download it and share it.. if anyone has seen it, how was it?.

Very interesting input... I got news of the programme by means of a short twitter message.
good, then that the programme seemed to be much more balanced than the impression I got... And as I suspected, the parents not heavily involved in JWism. They did not look that way either, especielly the children....
Anyway, I hope Megan will get a happy life and that her problems will be resolved.

I guess the Watchtower society is not too happy about this...

Ray Franz: destroying personal files of dfed
by compound complex inhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/164942/1/do-not-destroy-your-file-after-reinstatement.
karl adams, writing department overseer, wrote a letter to president knorr (november 18, 1971), questioning the keeping of voluminous files containing embarrassing information on disfellowshipped persons.
even after individuals were reinstated, their files were retained:.

This practice is forbidden in some countries, e.g. in Norway.
In Denmark, files were stolen from Bethel some time ago - much to the embarrassment of the Danish Bethel.

How Many Here Actually "Studied" The Publications?
by minimus inwhen i was a teenager i extensively studied nearly every publication.
i especially enjoyed looking up the root words meanings in the hebrew and greek of the bible language.
it gave me the flavor of a word and its origins.

I read all the magazines, all the articles, often also old volumes (has a good memory, so I easily so contradictions at times when doing this).
Read all the new publications with a week after publication. Loved the yearbook... (and still reads it, even seven years after exiting)...
Did underlining and looking up bible passages. Loved reading Insight on the Scriptures and the Proclaimers book. Also liked the "Search" book..
