Just received the same e mail in french This morning,from one of my Family jw.
seems That This week it Is time for french jw to tell tales...
it does not seem to be True...if it was, i seriously doubt That the secret service agent That allowed a guy to have something in his pocket even if was told not to, would have been sacked. They know better than having the président at risk the same way than David Palmer in the last épisode of 24 season 2. Even if there has been recent issues with white house security.
still,it reminds me of the same urban legends i Heard as a child on France, of some people "witnessing" to french président in the 80's or to the french prime minister in 1995 (for those who follow France, Guys names were Francois Mitterrand and Alain Jupé).
but how weird, we Never knew the names of those witnesses and they never were invited to tell their story at an assembly...
looks like a "fairy" tale to me...

Men are not looking forward to becoming Elders or Ministerial Servants
by Hidden-Window ini have noticed an apparently increasing number of men who are not interested in becoming ministerial servants or elders.
i also know of some that have voluntarily stepped down (which is my case) for no obvious solid reason.. i remember, during my teenage years or even during my twenties, the brothers were always looking forward to being appointed... although many still do, i have noticed there are many others with whom you do not know what the deal is.. since there is no freedom of speech within the organization, we remain in the dark about the motives and desires of everybody else.
i attend a congregation with only two ministerial servants, while it is full of men who do not seem to be willing to do more.. it is hard to tell exactly what is going on, since honesty is not possible while you are inside, but i am starting to think that more and more are becoming disillusioned.... .

comments regarding This image at my cong were hilarious...
speaker: "how do You feel about This image? What do You feel in your heart?"
answers : "This Is a beautiful building"; "i feel like WOW...how magnificent is the organisation"; "This makes me feel safe"; "This makes me think about how fast is the organisation moving"
and more blah blah blah...
Idiots...

Re Hostage victims killed in Sydney: "dont worry, at least they will NOW get a ressurection"
by stuckinarut2 inso most would now know of the vile act in sydney last week where a man held hostage over 17 people in the lindt cafe in the middle of sydney.. two people were murdered...a beautiful, educated lawyer,loving mother of three, and a brave, loving young man working as the cafe manager.. this senseless and cruel act has touched everyone deeply, especially in the communities of sydney.
the outpouring of grief and support for the victims and their families has been immense.. i was therefore outraged to have the following comment made by a witness in conversation at the kingdom hall:.
"well, we dont need to be sad, because at least now they (the two victims) will get a ressurection.

a relative of mine sent to me an extract of a french radio show This morning.
in That show a french member of parliament said something about religious authorities needing to call to their people for peace, and he added "in That case especially the muslim authorities as This Is not about the local jehovah witness around the corner".
This was a way of speach, to state That the first involved should be the muslim religious authorities and nobody else...
but guess what This devoted jw said??
"wow it means That MP recognized how peaceful we (JW tm) are".
i mean...really Guys? A MP says one phrase in 10 minutes That have JW in it and the only thing That matters is jw.org marketing? Not the appeals for peace That religious authorities has to place or a word of compassion for the victims?
let's review:it's a cult....and it's disgusting.
You expect such behaviour from a Wall Street wolf, not from a religion of love.still they do not get it...
