  They wont stop you. But they may deny privileges because you would be disrespecting theocratic order.

  id wonder how many wives of servants had the upper hand so to speak, on issues, that of course, were supposed to be private, yet gee lets be honest, husbands and wives talk.

  its nature.

  so if you were a wife of a servant how much did you get involved?

  Convention Cartoon

  so last night they played the convention cartoon.

  there were a few laughs from the audience, overall though people seemed a little taken aback and tight lipped.

  like no one gushed about it afterwards, no applause, just like it was nothing new at all.

  Two things I noticed from the cartoon:

  1. there was no mention of donation

  2. sisters should not wear high heals.

  going clear director alex gibney is calling for an end to scientology's tax-exempt status.in a los angeles times op-ed on saturday, documentary filmmaker gibney, whose going clear: scientology and the prison of belief aired on mar.

  29 on hbo, addressed the church's tax-exempt status, and why the status should be revoked.

  "regarding 'private interests,' it seems clear that scientology is ruled by only one man, [scientology head] david miscavige," gibney wrote in the op-ed.

  Hopefully this will be a reality and watchtower will also lose its status.

  Recycled WTS beliefs

  by Simon in

  2. beliefs

  we all know the wts abandons and invents beliefs faster than apple can churn out new shiny stuff.

  but have they ever abandoned a belief and later picked it up again?.

  i remember many years ago we had one of those post-district-assembly review parts (part of the service meeting) where they were discussing some "new light".. there was some confusion about which was the "new" and which was the "old" and a semi-discussion ensued with people commenting.

  Thanks for passing this on Barb. I am wondering if the same fate will happen to some of the witnesses that have been going to Israel for the past year with visitor permits.

  Worst Memorial Talk Ever!

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i honestly have never heard such claptrap being delivered in a memorial talk.. the speaker repeatedly put down the way other religions administered the bread & wine, and claimed that witnesses do it exactly as the bible describes.

  oh yeah????.

  he forgot to mention - when reading aloud 1 corinthians 11:25 - that after passing the bread, a full meal was to be shared, before the wine was passed around!
