  That reminds me of the 2 apostate books - Treasoning from the Scriptures, and Unsure of All Things. (Alright, that was an old joke.)

  yes the associated press..mormons are posthumously baptizing holocaust victim as well as grandparents of public figures like d. trump, hillary clinton and steve spielberg..i wonder what holocaust victims will think, surprise you are a mormon...i think i will send a request to mormon's headquarter to check to see if c.t russell and any of the past dead gb members were baptized, and make it known to jw community.. it would hilarious to see their (jw) expression, "you know russell was a baptized mormon.....

  Deceptive comments or lies that you have heard from platform or brothers & sisters?

  ok, so what are the most deceptive comments that you have heard from your experience in congregations?.

  my top three are;.

  1) service overseer during the ’ how did we do?’ annual talk, twisted the figures to such an extent that it looked like the congregations ministry was in tip-top shape.

  @cha ching,

  They actually made up that excuse about apostates to get buy-in for the great KH takeover? Wow, that's crazy!

  November 13, 2017 TO ALL BOE IN THE US Re: Making the Best Use of Our Kingdom Halls

  I'm inclined to believe that the overall picture involves creating a problem, and then creating a solution for it, taking credit for a master plan that forces all faithful meeting attendees to do (once again) whatever they're told. Here are my thoughts as to how this could happen:

  Future problem - distance to attend meetings (self-inflicted by GB of course)

  Future solution - more, maybe some day all, meetings to be attended at home, through jw-org site.

  Benefits:

  * Reduced travel time and expense

  * Ability to pause meeting due to household interruptions, so that none of the meeting is missed

  * Ability to replay meetings in case you needed to replay that New Light, which didn't make sense the first several times you heard it

  * (List additional benefits with vague scriptural reference here)

  Having another Bible translation on your bookshelf when they come to visit is fine. But if they discover a Ray Franz book on the shelf, you've got some explaining to do!

  Every large company I have worked for had a legal department with a known (and often revised) records retention policy. I can only believe that this is so nothing can be discovered during litigation.

  Signing Away Your Hard Earned Cash

  reading the meeting workbook study for this week to see what my family will be reading at their meeting, once again they are asking for members for generous gifts not only from money they earn but also part of any investments they may have and making future arrangements for them to inherit after death through their wills.

  take a look at the lower part of the page on this link, its awful!

  I was looking for something like "can you justify before Jehovah why you're not giving every last penny in your bank account? Don't you trust that Jehovah will repay you 10x what you give and more?"

  Maybe they will be bold enough to include that next year...
