I think it's done over 2 chapters, but the most enlightening part for me was where he highlights the hypocrisy of the Mexico/Malawi situation.

Jesus didn't go "undercover" to point out the hypocrisy and injustices of the Temple Scribes and Pharisees of His day, did He? Didn't he actually go and turn tables up on them?
As I recall, it didn't work very well for Jesus either, as he had to go do it on two occasions. Maybe he gave them a persecution complex as well, so they just went right back to it.
I presume he did it out of principle and being moved to do so emotionally, rather than the misguided belief that his actions would actually stop people doing what they were doing.

If there are any halls left that they haven't sold off by then. I guess it might be like a "thanks for giving us all your money" speech. Or knowing the WTBTS, more like: "are you sure that was all of the money? did you try down the back of the couch?"

Pat Condell on Britain's Cultural Crisis
by cofty ina scandal is brewing in the uk.
for many years gangs of asian men engaged in rape and torture of young girls who were in the "so-called" care system.
it is believed there were around 1,400 victims in north west england, focussed on the town of rotherham.. if reports are to be believed, social workers, police and the cpc knew it was happening and everybody failed to act for one simple reason.

If you really want to put on the "tinfoil hat", there are some who believe there is (or was) a paedophile ring even in the top levels of government - abuse of power may start at the top.

As I recall, this was also one of the main purposes of the recent Rosetta mission, due to one theory which says much of earth's water came from impacting asteroids. Apparently if they find the same isotope ratios on the comet, it could add weight to the theory.

No longer to use "house to house record" slips and "please follow up slips"!
by stuckinarut2 ina letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .

Justnowout - Yes it won't be on the website as it won't be a worldwide thing, just in whatever country had this announcement
As some have already said, in Britain witnesses stopped using S-8 slips over a decade ago, but some time earlier this year they decided to start using them again for some reason. It sounds like they have now changed their minds again, if the country in the original post is referring to the Britain.
