  so we had brother losch visiting our special assembly day which was weird in itself.

  he's not a very good speaker and seemed like he was in dire need of a nap or something.. anyways just a few observations from the assembly program.

  theme: imitate their faith.

  I don't know why they send him around to give talks in the US. You can barely understand his English. He's so goddamn boring. He'd always put me to sleep at morning worship.

  Is there new light about joining the Military?

  i'm sure there's probably not, but on jwmatch, which i subscribe to for laughs, i got their usual email today saying they found the perfect match for me, he's in hawaii, i'm in nyc, he's 40 and i"m 18 years older, perfect so far, right?

  anyway below is the first line of his narrative introducing himself.

  i am disfellowshipped and likely won't be reinstated until i retire from the military in three years.

  He probably figured he would join the military, get DF'ed, retire, get reinstated and go to college on the government's dime.

  lett is back with a vengance!.

  * the last money-begging effort increased donations by 15% for two months; a letter by a 13 year old who donated is read out loud.

  * since last may "so many good things have happened".

  Is the Pioneer School being eliminated?

  by wannaexit in

  2. friends

  i heard from the semi reliable source that the pioneer schools will go the way of the dodo bird next year.. i could see this happening.

  it used to be that you went to the the pioneer school once.

  then they allowed dubs to go every 5 years.

  Yeah what Socrates and Magnum said. It was just the COs giving their personal opinions as dogma.

  The new Fred Franz?

  by careful in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  of course, no one could ever fully replace "our oracle for over 50 years" (ray franz quoting karl klein or someone else on the gb back in the days of gb i in cofc somewhere ), but i have to wonder just who on gb ii has come to fill fred franz's shoes the most.

  it seems like it is david splane.

  he appears to be in charge of the writing department, proposes and pushes thru the gb most of the doctrinal changes (he announces them so they're his baby), and like ff, fancies himself musically inclined.

  The best part of the Fred Franz legacy is that the vast majority of his stuff isn't even considered doctrine anymore.
