Great point, Zoos.

It really goes to show that when something is trivial, Jehovah™ is Flash Gordon; when it's really important, like exposing pedophiles and protecting children, suddenly Jehovah™ makes glaciers look like Olympic sprinters.
it's not difficult to see the paradox.

We had a discussion on Topix forum about Watchtower predictions that came true. This was all they could come up with lol

hey folks......has anyone else heard of, or experienced this before?.
i visited by parents over the weekend and accompanied them to their assembly....same rubbish spoken about since ive been born....obey the gb, donate your last penny, no education and be a pushover.. anyways, our assembly hall has lush vegetation and scenery, so i was more focused on that....i started dozing off after lunch, so got up and went walking, saw some older folks from the congregation i grew up with.. upon the conclusion of the assembly, wed normally leave out right after the prayer ends so as to avoid the traffic.
however, for this assembly he told me that hes gonna be a few minutes with the elders and branch representatives...so a few minutes turned into an hour..
they were told that their congregation is way behind in their contributions/donations to the assembly hall fund…our assembly hall is up for sale and we’re expected to revert back to renting stadiums ect
I'm a little confused. If your circuit is selling the ASS Hall and reverting back to using secular facilities, why would JWs be donating to an Ass Hall fund?
Is this tied to the new "donation" (tithing) arrangement? Or is WT continuing to maintain a local Ass Hall fund for a future project?
If I was an Elder sitting in that meeting, my first question would be: "What happens to the money coming from the sale of our Ass Hall? Why are we donating to an Ass Hall fund when we'll no longer even have one? What exactly are we donating to?"

BOTR: I have better things to do. It takes time to read documents. No legal case is ever presented accurately on this forum.
If you don't 'have time' to read the court documents, how would you know what's being said here is inaccurate?
I know you claim to be an "attorney". Is this an example of how you lawyer? You don't read anything but make wild guesses and sweeping, uninformed statements?

The WT lawyers are suspect to me as lawyers. They graduated from a four year college and law school.
Yeah, but Jehovah will "finish their training", so a mere four years of University is irrelevant in JW BethelLand. Plus, they read the WT and Awake, which is like having a second college degree.
What type of person can section off their mind and believe the massive lies of the WTBTS
An attorney.

"God be with them and give them strength in this moment of sorrow."
God wasn't with them before the crash to protect them, no need to believe he'd be with them now to "give them strength".
God: always a day late and a dollar short.

sir82: Based on that summary, it kind of sounds like the WTS wasn't taking this seriously.
Well, when the Almighty is your wingman and you live in a Spritual Paradise™, everyday is a party...no need to take anything seriously.
Isn't pride supposed to be a sin???

I cried like a baby ♥ Thank you Jehovah for our Wonderful Gift !! I even felt it all the time so soft. One sister even said that she slept with hers.
No doubt the rNWT all she's slept with...ever.
