You would think they would hae a hard copy of the bible around just in case they need to fall back on it for reference or in case of a tablet failure. Otherwise I do not see anything wrong with using a tablet.

Video of JW's street witnessing using a tablet ... getting owned by BIble users
by wannabefree ini came across this video ... and watched it ... why?
i don't know really, but i found it intersting.. especially interesting was how these men used the bible, they knew their message, they used an actual hard copy bible that has obviously been studied, and the older jw man, well, he was using a tablet.
it seemed cumbersome compared to using the actual bible.

What does the building of Warwick HQ have to do with the Society's expectation of the end?
by Apognophos inthis topic is a couple years late, but i just wanted to get this off my chest.
i don't understand why people say that the society starting a project that won't finish until 2017 means that the end can't come until then, or that they don't expect the end before then.
this isn't a very logical line of thought.

They replied that it would be "very soon" but my son was not content with that and when he asked them to be more specific (e.g. in 1 month, or 1 year, 10 years, or longer?) one of the JWs stated that he was absolutely certain this world would be gone within the next 5 years at the very latest.
I remember my brother in law saying much the same back in the late 60's early 70's. I recall him saying that we wouldn't see the end of 1975 in this system.

New Appointments Are Very Fast & All On The CO
by baldeagle inthe week of september 15, 2014 was the congregations cos visit.
the midweek meeting was on tuesday, a very general bland talk was given by the co. in the past we would have had the elders & servants meeting on thursday night, and the other congregation meeting on friday.
as you know the friday meeting is no more.

Sounds like this is to get the WT out of all capability if this appointee screws up. I guess they have enough Pedo lawsuits to deal with and they don't/can't handle anymore. Like someone else on here said everything the WT does goes through their legal department, so this is all by design. The CO better have deep pockets if he gets sued.

"start getting ready we're not going to be around much longer!"
I would like to know what he means by this comment? Again is saying it is only years, months, weeks, days or hours? Another scare tactic that they can turn around after the fact and say they never made any predictions as to the end. Same cheep fear mongering crap that I have been hearing from them for the last 50 years.

I have known of some not personally but friends of friends that have posted on here. I think because of the cult mentality of the organzation that a lot of too much to lose if they went public with their thoughts.

I do not think outlawing any cult is the answer but they should have their tax exempt status taken away.

Outside of the bible there is no evidence that a man by the name of Jesus even existed. What you are talking about here is blind faith in something you cannot prove.
