  Powerball Jackpot up to 1.3 Billion Dollars. Do you think the governing body bought any tickets?

  what if the governing body members bought a ticket or somehow obtained one.

  then the unthinkable happens...they won!

  how would they be able to hide that?

  Just got off the phone with Geoffrey Jackson. He said buying a ticket would not be in transgression of the rules.

  The child abuse cases keep coming in, more and more. I think that as more keep coming to light, the more victims will feel that they have a voice and the more will come forward. Good!

  They are just "reminding" us so that they can wave the donation thing in front of our face again. That all that is. They are only coming up with way to make an announcement to say something about donations.

  I personally think 2 go bags are a waste of money. Where are you going to go? I live in OH and there is no where for me to go. I just don't see a benefit to having them. Has anyone any where ever seen a benefit ever?

  Still, it's about time they did something. And I'm happy that they did. Actually, I'm surprised at the article, to be honest. "Who do we write the check out to" Devine asked. Well, that's a start.

  If only they would be so open about the child abuse cases, but hey, one step at a time...

  Who has more Zeal, wt or Isis?

  http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-35260475 would a jw shun, treat as dead, with contempt his own mother for her attempt to have him leave the wt religion?.

  I'd pretty much say that Isis has way more zeal that the WT. Even if the GB had their own way I don't think they would kill. They might imprison maybe, but not kill. They're not that crazy.

  Can you guys help me? I need to find all the recent articles on the WT's most recent stance on education and carreers

  i am at work talking to a current jdub and i am making progress (i think) with her and right now the theme is education.

  she says that the wt no longer looks down on education and is claiming that the wt no longer says we are close to the end!

  tia!

  Thanks wifibandit - I just watched that video. I think I'm gonna start pioneering! They make it look so rosey and all. Like if you choose pioneering as a career then everything will be just fine. You'll never vex, you'll never be sorry, you'll never this, never that. All you gotta do it pioneer. And all your bills will be paid.

  That last picture showing the entire site, man it looks like a giant university campus. Really huge. It's gotta cost a billion dollars.

  What would you like to see the Watchtower Society implement that would give you a dignified way to leave/stop being a Jehovah's Witness?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses do not provide a dignified resignation process for members who wish to resign/quit being a jehovah's witnesses.you are not given any good choices.

  you can either: disassociate yourself,fade,become inactive or move to another city/state/country where you won't be bothered or found out.. if you quit your job/employment, stop attending a book club or bowling league,or quit a lawn service company, newspaper delivery service,you wouldn't see your employer or friends sending out a written notice to anyone to stop all association with you or have little contact.you would sue them for slander.you have a right to quit any association or contract (when it expires or doesn't meet the terms any longer) whenever you wish.. what would you like to see the watchtower society implement that would give you a dignified way to leave/stop being a jehovah's witness?.

  Yeah, too bad there's no such thing as "I quit the church" box. If that was so, just think how many people would check that box. Many would. Me too.

  Umbertoecho here.

  hello people.. i'm tired and a bit sick at the moment but i can't let anyone think that this is going to go away.... i am able to tell you a few things in order to prevent any confusion in the minds of those who are thinking that nothing will come of this arc;that nothing will effect the wtbts in america and other places.. i have been there and given my testimony.

  helen milroy and her assistants were there along with another group of people who are there to lend assistance if you crack up at any time during or after the hearing.

  i did not crack up but can see how this happens.. security is tight and anonymity is sacred to them as they want to protect all who come forward.

  That's right Umby. Now let the Watchtower shit bricks all over Australia and the world over their worry about what to do because they have these cases to worry about now. Well, they should have thought about this along time ago. They should have trusted in Jehovah in the first place and simply called the police when someone molested someone else. But no. They had to sweep it under the rug and not let God's name get into it all. Well now they have to pay the price with interest, just like a credit card.

  You are a hero in my book. Here's the thing. You took the brunt of the pain for all of us. Your pain for all those future children's gain, hopefully. Go get 'em Umby. I hope the Watchtower really gets it bad, really bad. I mean really bad press, really bad financially too. We all love you for this. We just can't say enough.
