i have been wondering if persons here have ever worked the same territories jws work to create awareness to house holders?

for instance, producing custom pamplets or tracts discussing the culture and demands of being a jehovahs witness.

the doctrines and history explained in a fatual manner so that people can weigh the pros and the cons prior to accepting a bible study?

i am completing training for an organization that i belong to and thought that some jwn members might benefit from the following paragraph about team building.. most significant results today are achieved by teams.

teams with members that work cooperatively and with the proper skills can produce amazing results.

this lesson will show you how to transform a group of individuals into a highly effective team with proper motivation, communication, oversight, and rewards.

Birthdays & Christmas

what is the deal with people criticizing jws because they don't celebrate birthdays or christmas?.

it is as if when someone is born, from a baby, to a child, teen, adult; that one has a responsiblity to celebrate christmas (and i thought it was a free country); and others have a responsiblity to celebrate others' anniversary of one's birth.. i don't get the criticisms as if celebrating either is a great thing and the not celebrating is a bad thing.. data on star trek said that he does not understand why people celebrate their birthdays - a day one can not possibly remember.. what are you actually celebrating?

the fact that you made it another year?

Would this work? Be honest. Brutal if necessary.

i feel i must preface this with context so as to make the intention understandable: .

to jehovah's witnesses and their apologists, that goal is destruction of truth and the downfall of jehovah's witnesses.

but that's not our goal.
