  Hoser: I don't know what it is about because I missed the meeting . I'll have to ask around

  What? You start a conspiracy theory thread about an upcoming meeting and then you don't even go to give a full report?

  Not cool!

  Building layoffs & JW calendar 2016 theme

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the theme of the jw calendar 2016 is building, building, building.

  all the calendar pictures are about building wts property with cheap labor witnesses.. and then, just before the year approaches the building has halted.. it seems a short term decision.

  a strange correlation again.. gorby.

  The "leaders" of this religion have clearly lost the plot!

  Let's review: It's a cult! .... and it's becoming increasingly clear that it's an effing stupid one!!!

  Too Much Discontent in the Congregation Part 3

  by Simon Templar in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  now, 80-85 years later, we are still here.

  if i was to do the counsel with a brother who had this much experience, i would have just thanked him for doing the talk, and marked him good on the point.

  this is a good way to get money though.

  "the Kingdom work is expanding at an accelerated pace"

  by Londo111 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if recent intel is true, there is only a .23% increase worldwide in 2015. .

  notice what is increasing is not the average publisher count, according to the above watchtower quote to spin the bethel downsizing, but the work.

  "the little one will become a thousand and the small one a mighty nation.

  by Darkknight757 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  got this very interesting email last night and i thought i'd share it.. this is from the local rbc.. "in harmony with our new ldc form we have been asked by the branch to liquidate all current assets of used tools and materials once owned by the rbc.

  you are invited to visit the equipment trailers to acquire items being liquidated by the rbc asset team, these items will be offered on a first come bases with voluntary donation.

  if you see any item you like please be in position to take it with you at that time, after you return to your congregation then you will make a donation of cash or check in the congregation contribution box designated for the support of the worldwide work.

  If it's anything like the way they resell the CO's used cars the "suggested donation" prices will be way over market value for used gear.

  What is the org’s view on extraterrestrial life?

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am sure that it has been discussed before.

  but just out of curiosity, what is the orgs view on extraterrestrial life?

  the org certainly agrees that the universe is infinitely large.

  MNIONC: I agree. But I don't think that they put angels in the same category as "aliens" or "little green men". You do bring up a good point.

  Yes of course you are correct, but that just reveals the inconsistency in their "theology" on this point.

  Why is the "Universal Sovereignty Issue" unchallenged by the rebellion of the demons, but could not withstand "little green men" or any other biological lifeforms?

  It's an internally incoherent and inconsistent "theology."

  That being said, I for one do believe in "little green women":
