last night we were invited to a get-together with quite a few heavies attendingelders and regular pioneers.
there was beer and later some music.
everyone got relaxed and let down their guard and starting talking all kinds of non-theocratic stuff that you only discuss after a few beers.
That is a good question if I'm ever with a group of jdubs in a nice setting I think I will ask it.
One nice thing about going completely digital would be you could miss meeting or watch them when you got the time soon everyone will not even watch them as they have no elders to police them and then the so called truth will fade into obscurity.

pot calling the kettle black?
no one can do it better than the wt!.

dear brothers:we are writing to inform you that arrangements are being made for video recordings ofcongregation meetings, circuit assemblies, and conventions to be uploaded to jw stream (accessibleat http://stream.jw.org) in various languages.
Listening to meeting in your own home because they sold your Kingdumb Hall is dangerous without the group dynamics to force you to nod your head yes all the time to all the rubbish they publish.
Instead you might be prone to say: "what the fuck" without nobody/elders' watching you.
Pretty soon there will be nothing left of this organization but a poorly made web site and all the Governing Body behind bars for sins against humanity.

That ought to work real nice for when they start selling Kingdom Hall left and right, they won't be needing Kingdom Halls just plug in to JW.org.
Some day that's all that will be left of this religion is just a web site.
the thread about magazines stopping distribution in india reminded me of a recent conversation.
a local brother said he asked for a copy of the new organisation book for publishers.
the elder told the brother to print it out if he wanted a physical copy.
If they were astute business men they would have abandened the printing business decades ago and moved on to something else but these wishful thinkers just keep hoping for a turn around in profits all the while pushing the pedal to the metal with denial.
Next came the big real estate fiasco which is costing them big time. Change will come only when no alternative exist with these slow thinking Einsteins.
It's like prosecutor Steward said by their policies they have created a captive organization or held captive by the organization no matter which way you slice it it still means the same thing, I think his statements was meant to give direction for further prosecution which will occur later.
A can of worms as regarding to lawsuits has been opened by the Royal Commissions public statements they have lost all credibility and the sharks are circling I see many many lawsuit and many for sale signs on WT property and finally bankruptcy.
faithful and always so very discrete in many things but when it comes to the lord's money not so good.. i think as it begins to register in their minds as to what a terrible job they have done as ceos of a large corporation leading it into this condition that thoughts of suicide come from.
not to mention the shame at being a public spetical to the world by the rc.
all these things and more are creeping through their denial as they are forced to face reality.

Hey you gotta think that these guys may be facing homelessness in the near future the way things are going or maybe serious time, that has gotta wear on these guys unless their delusional state is worse than I'm thinking.
I think they are thinking that they may face some serious jail time for scamming people into membership and then abusing them when before a judicial court done in secret. Their lies are all there in print and for public record the gig is up.
i am not sure if it's true but i heard from a good source that wt has given instructions to elders to postponed disfellowshipping members from wrong doing/gross sin until further instructions given by headquarters.
i heard some jws were just reproved either privately or publically.
has anyone else heard anything like this recently?
I think that the GB have taken this DF'n thing to the max which is right into the ground zero and might be facing some serious lawsuit issues in the future as the climate for litigation becomes more and more likely.
It would be wise to suspend the shunning practice too as this opens them up for legal action on many ethical issues.
