Lee Elder, that was a much appreciated article. On the Beacon for former forum there is a nice banter. My favorite man M Shilmer has much food for thought in regards to watchtower leadership and the doctine of blood.

Generally, I would never defend JW's but I know a 1/2 dozen witnesses who have had hip surgery. This is one of those procedures where blood is not really an issue. So not sure what Prince's problem is.

I just heard of more organizational changes...........

by awildflower in

so a good friend of mine e-maild me today with this information.

aparently brother hurd says as of 2010 all the magazine printing and distribution will be moved to canada.

the only printing the us will do is the books.

Funny I just logged on to post this very topic.

Yes I have also heard the same thing. The word is that the Canadian Bethel will be doing all the printing for the whole of North America. They are getting ready to put together a new state of the art printing press/presses. Apparently the work will be non stop and bethelites will be working overtime, shifts and double shifts.

Something is up. Seems like watchtower is running from something. Are there more legal woes coming down the pipes and are they trying to protect their assets by transferring things to other countries? I wonder what the scoop is.

I Just Talked To An Old JW Friend About The Dumbness of The Organization

by minimus in

he came by my work and we talked.

he pretty much became irregular (as a publisher), moved away and recently moved back into the area.

he's now a ms again and he's bemoaning his lot in life and sees a lot of stupidity within the "truth".

This org is such a trap. I wonder how many are in the same conundrum

One of the Governing Body had a stroke yesterday

on may 19th, theodore jaracz had a stroke.

he's in very serious condition in the hospital.. that's all the information i have for now.. barb.

wannaexit

they pronounce his name brother Ha-raks.

FUNNY I ALWAYS PRONOUNCED it JACKASS. Seriously, I don't know why.

At any rate, nothing against him personally. A few years ago I was so angry I would have been so happy to hear that a member of the governing body was suffering and would certainly have said "good riddance".

Today I feel sorry for the poor smuck. RIP whenever that might be!!
