maybe it was just an innocent mistake. they wanted to subscribe to the UN quarterly journel, and just accidently signed the form to become an NGO, and the yearly submitance form to show that you've supported the UN in some way, and also accidently printed some articles about the UN in favourable light(obviously some apostate has infiltrated them again). its all so innocent just a coincedence and nothing to worry about. no need to tell the rank and file.

WATCHTOWER TAKEN DOWN
by Smokey ini have been pondering a lot of what is going on with jws regarding the current issue of child molestation and i am concerned that a lot of this will be settled out of court and these horrible crimes will not be remembered.
i know already that this situation has died down somewhat since it first came to light.
i feel really bad and hope that these people will receive their justice.

maybe the answer to the WTS downfall might lie in measurements of the great pyramid.
i think there's more chance of the arrival of planet X than the WTS falling from grace.

What did you REALLY think about the banned things
by SpannerintheWorks inwhat prompted this topic was when an ex-jw ( ex-elder ) friend of mine told me that once when he was doing a "car" witness with three others, near to christmas time, they lost one of them!
after a bit of searching along the route, the others eventually found him in a house, eating a mince pie and drinking a glass of brandy!.
my friend reminded him that he shouldn't be participating in these " worldly things.

Hi Jurs!
well some of it i had to keep quiet, like dating worldly girls, eventhough i thought they were more consciencious than some of the JWs i knew of similar age. i think they new from the start i wasn't one to be messed with. it was astrugle for them to get me to wear a tie. when i applied to become an unbaptised publisher they said that there wasnt any rules, but i couldnt be a unbaptised publisher if i didnt wear a tie. at the time i was wearing a suit jacket, so the tie went on and the jacket came off. there was no way i'd let them win!
i guess they were quite liberal and didnt want confrontations, thankfully, but it aint over yet. i've stopped going to meetings but its just a matter of time untill i get a phone call etc, and then i'll get to see just how liberal they are.

Resurrection Shuffle
by PopeOfEruke inone of jw "beliefs" that was and still is most confusing to me is the condition of married persons after the resurrection.
in particular, if one marriage partner dies before the big a and then gets resurrected.. its surprising how many jw's hold sacred their own private interpretation on this.. generally i found that if the marriage had been a happy one, a lot of jw's believe if the surviving marriage partner does not remarry, then they will end up back with their dead-but-back-again married partner after the resurrection.
in a normal sexual marriage relationship.. if the survivng partner does remarry however, the the old chestnut gets rolled out about people in the resurrection "will neither get married or be given in marriage.

great words about bonking Beck!
i always thought about it this way: if what jesus said about eating the bread and drinking the wine was just pertaining to the little flock, then why shouldnt that same rule apply to what Jesus said about those being resurected not remarrying? he said they would be like angels. those resurected in the flesh wouldnt be like angels.
just another example of the WTS making up rules and bending them to their own satisfaction.

Give Bill a deserved break!
by Derrick inislandwoman, i hope you don't take this topic as a personal attack because none such was intended.
in the topic why is bill bowen attacking us?
the topic's author asks about bill bowen, "why is he attacking ray franz, hillary_step and from what i've heard on this board also reinhard lengtat?".

after speaking to Bill a couple of months ago, i can understand his frustration with Ray, although i dont agree with what he said. i do feel that Ray has been somewhat selective about bringing into the open the things he knows.

i was quite renowned for never getting involved in anything in the congregation. to other JWs who weren't in my cong who were of the same age, thought that i was spiritual. and friends of mine who weren't JWs they thought i was extremely self disciplined and respected me for it.
