$5.5 Million to be transferred to World Wide Work from Assembly Hall fund
by Sour Grapes ina letter was read tonight in our kingdom hall that the money that the circuits in the indianapolis area had in savings to build a new assembly hall will now be transferred to the www to build kingdom halls in lands where they are needed and a new assembly hall for us will not be built.. we had a beautiful assembly hall near downtown indy that was paid for.
it was sold a couple of years ago.
we were promised a new assembly hall to be built in southern ohio near the indiana border but they can kiss that goodbye now.

The book burning has started
by pale.emperor indon't know if this is a global thing but i've just been told by a pimo member of my old congregation that a min servant has been given the task of destroying all old books/literature in the kh library prior to 1992.. could be the elders (or even one of them) on a mission to stamp out dissent as my ex-wife used the same reasoning to her elder dad that i used in my jc: rutherfords books containing failed predictions.. anyone else heared anything?.
the ms who's been given the task is a company man.
no hope of him keeping them or selling them on ebay.. they have some russell books in that library too.

Actually, this directive from Mother HQ was sent out (in writing no less!) to the Congregations several years back if I'm not mistaken. A lot of the Elduh's didn't have the heart to toss the old stuff from the "Library", and just kind of brushed the orders aside. This isn't anything new.

Sister may have had a slight heart attack, do I text her?
by Xanthippe inso my cousin phoned and told me my jw sister was taken to hospital with chest pains and it may have been a slight heart attack or possibly she's starting with angina.
now as some of you know my sisters and brother have had little to do with me for 29 years.
we've met at funerals, or arranged them, but i just thought today what if she did die?

If she wanted you to know about her health or medical conditions, SHE would contact YOU. She doesn't, so therefore it's none of your business and doesn't warrant any sort of contact whatsoever.
When people show you how they are, believe them. She's shown herself as a judgmental ASS, so damn sure believe that's what she is.
And yeah, I've been there with in-laws (non-JW's) who were manipulative narcissists. You get to the point where you say, "I've had enough of this shit! Good luck with all that!", and then promptly exit - FOREVER.
Contacting this heartless wench will only end in pain for YOU. Somehow, someway, they'll use it to poke at you and make you feel like a subhuman being. Been there, done that.

Thank you, George Couch!
by charonsdog ini just thought i'd share this story from my past.. back in the 80s i remember the big problem seemed to be about music.
(today, it's tight pants, i guess) the organization, society, whatever they were calling themselves, were always going on about the music we listened to.
disco, heavy metal, the whole "backwards masking" thing...couldn't escape hearing or reading about how satan was corrupting us unless we were listening to kingdom melodies or elevator music.. i was assigned to wtf in the late 80s and remember one of the articles stating that "young people know that the rhythm of rock music is the rhythm of sexual intercourse.

Ha! I remember the rants of the 80's well. As a young JW kid, I wasn't allowed to own ANY of my own music. I remember rants against Michael Jackson, KISS, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Guns-N-Roses, and especially Queen and Judas Priest.
Doesn't matter. I have them ALL now!
As a teen in the 90's, there were a lot of rants about Rap music, Grunge, etc. Like any kid in the 90's gave a shit. Ha!

The motif on the wall looks like an organ? I'm kinda surprised the JW's left it like that, seeing as how it's some sort of "symbolism" or something.

All that's left is for the Org to assign a number that each member must wear on their hand to mark them as "true Christians."

On the tracking date of PDF's, and tracing them:
So what? All anyone has to do is NOT forward the actual PDF document around. How so?
1.) Well, you simply PRINT IT OUT, then scan it in and THEN forward it around. BOOM! No embedded info to be traced!!!! Hahahaha! Simplicity as it's finest.
Fuck you WatchTower, fuck you very hard!!!

Wait.......what in the hell did I just watch?
1.) That marching drum beat sounds "militaristic" in nature, like something right out of the old Soviet Bloc! WTF??????
2.) The older lady in the silver dress (centered), is like a Barbara Anderson doobleganger!! Wow!! She also had a few snide looking smirks on her face, probably from watching that dufos conductor Splain make an ass out of himself with his "conducting."
3.) The weird looks on the faces of these people before they started singing just screams, "I'm a brainwashed cult member, and I just luuuuuuv this shit!" ALA: People's Temple style. Glazed over, non-thinking, drones. SMH.

That bit in the "do's and don'ts" at the Convention really raises a Red Flag. Which one? Well, all of them are controlling, but the one that raises my eye the most is the one about food. Cooking food in your room, or eating to much at the Continental Breakfast buffet. How so you may ask? Why, this is an old Cult trait. Don't let your recruits or members eat too much food, in particular: Protein. The food that is served is usually Carb-rich to load down and make the members half sleepy, so that they are more easily indoctrinated (AKA: Brainwashed). Protein-rich diets that are lower in carbs, tend to not make people drowsy and also encourage more brain activity. Can't have that!!!!! (thinking)
