It appears to me that with the flood of people out the back door of this loony religion, that the WT is just tightening it's grip.

Reasons for change in meetings and book study
by JWRESEARCH inthere were already a few topics and posts about the motifs behind the changes, but i think we can unite them all in just one topic.. for a start i will say thar the letter that is going to be read next weekend, says that gb wants to reduce the burden (quotes acts 15:28), and adds that in many countries the gas (petroleum) is at a very high cost for some families.
then it makes a suggestion to use the same day for study at home with family.. of course that the text of hebrew 10:25 is not quoted!
- if we are more close to the end it should be taken the opposite measure!.

Why does BETHEL NOT ALLOW district and circuit overseers to get-together.
by yesidid insome time ago a district overseer i know decided to have a social gathering of the do and co's.
after a district convention.
when bethel found about it, the do was told to, and did cancel it immediately.. i have often wondered why they don't want the do's and co's to socialise.. what do you think?.

I agree. It is a big to do about nothing. MOst of the JWs will not even get the significance of it other than parroting about what an Oh so wonderful provision it is from the slave anyway.

Effects of the changes if the book study is amalgamated with the TMS
by truthseeker inwe're pretty sure what will happen next week but not why.. this thread is just for a list of changes that will affect those who still go.. .
1) no more private book study arrangements.
the book study host will ask themselves "why?".

they sure took great pains not to mention the current theocracies out there. If any of those governing body goons came into power their state would mirror Iran to a "T".

The Watchtower and The Memorial
by jakes inthe fundamental doctrines of the watchtower hinge on one teaching, and that is that jerusalem was destroyed in 607bce.
it is well documented by now that not one secular source supports the date given by the watchtower for the fall of jerusalem.
in the field of archaeology much work has been done since the 1800s when this date was first coined.

Worst Kingdom Melody lyrics- your votes?
by JimmyPage inmy votes for worst kingdom melody lyrics: song 125- "jehovah is on my side" (try singing these lyrics without laughing like beavis and butthead): "i know that in this crucial hour my faith will yet be tested/ around me swarms the devil's crowd like bees that were molested/ but i can ever beat them off beneath divine protection/ on those who love to bear his name god sets his deep affection.
" or how about song 201- "rejoicing with god's nation" (grab your thesaurus for this one): "in a land so good and spacious/ free from strife and things vexatious/ look!
a happy crowd vivacious/ in god's service that is efficacious.

the one I went to was pretty festive before and after the service. There was this girl , who apparently knew my wife from the hall, hovering around us both trying to draw me into conversations about the troof. I guess she was on a mission to try to "get to know" people she hadn't seen or something.
