  Stratton: why different from other cases?

  by expatbrit in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the stratton township case appears to have a very good chance of success despite the appeals to the supreme court.

  but this is obviously not the first time villages and towns have attempted to stop continual disturbance by the jw's.

  the quebec court cases that the wt won are examples.. so what makes this particular case different?

  2. friends

  in another thread the point was made that the wts is ending subscriptions to the watchtower and awake!

  magazines.

  isp rightly commented the following, "the wts gets double payment for the mags from the r+f......so subscribers are not cost effective!".

  friday.

  well sad to say it was not revelations of sweeping reform or "new light" on caring for the flock.

  the first day was primarily rehash of old stuff.

  Overweight JWs -- on the increase?

  by Seeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  yes, i know, the title is a pun.

  it was deliberate.. i can recall in the 1970s seeing very few overweight jws.

  in fact, i used to think (in my arrogant jw manner) that this was a sign of how jws were better at self-control than worldly people.
