Over the last few years there has been a trend to more manuscript talks and less outline talks at Circuit and District assemblies -- even the Public Talk went over to manuscript format a few years ago - lawyer speak for all saying the same thing -- so I would bet what was said was totally scripted

How more vague can the society get at the assemblies?
by be wise inhis is a quote from the give god glory district convention showing how they avoid their own questions and provide the usual vague answers that no jw understands.
we don't want to be personally refuting these untruths unless jehovah's organisation assigned us to do that, publicly.
now, are we talking people in our ministry or elsewhere about points about what they have heard, read?

Qualifications of Elders
by iiz2cool inin my experience with elders in the past i was counseled for many things, most trivial and stupid, but some were serious issues.
one thing i noticed was that the elders always seemed to approach issues with some preconceived ideas, or they would try to read between the lines rather than actually listen to what i was saying.
others i know have had similar experiences.

I stand by what I said there are one or two elders who are trained mental health specialists for example -- I could quote others and name congregations but then it would reveal my identity --- again I stand by what I said they are there but very rare -- when I say qualified I mean by worlds standards. They do get looked down upon by other elders it is true.

Thanks for that post Hamas -- absolutely incredible. Just the tip of the iceberg -- I wonder how long it will be before theTitanic (the unsinkable organization because it has Gods backing) will hit the iceberg and be sunk

Tomorrow Is My 39th. Anniversary.
by Undecided inmarried to the same woman for 39 years!
i guess that's because she is a "worldly" woman and everybody here knows they are the best kind!.

well done and may I personally add my congratulations - yes worldly women are great -- much more balanced - makes for a good marriage. 2 marriage partners that are both regular pioneers trying to get enough money to live on -- now that is my idea of hell

Your Ideal Partner...
by Gadget indr pawlowski from wroclaw university, poland, has found that the perfect height ratio to find your ideal partner.
aparently the man should be 1.09x taller than the woman.
this would give my ideal partner height at 5ft, which more than half of my girlfriends have been!!!.

everything I have read -- textbooks, magazines say you are totally normal --- only 25% of women achieve orgasm through "normal intercourse" and especially missionary -- women on top is supposed to be better - so I am told by women and books etc.. otherwise you need a patient guy who will give loads of fore-play - or oral - or both of course. Every woman deserves to have their needs met -- so no you are not a s---, -- deserve to have ALL needs met-- physically, emotionally, sexually and spiritually --- I suppose that is why there are so men women on this board -- because they certainly do not get their spiritual needs met by the WTBTS!
The perfect partner is thus one who provides all the above needs - whatever the height, size, width etc.

Well sounds a great idea to me -- as you know at CO meetings and CO/DO meetings at circuit level once per year and those KM schools and supplemenatray KM schools -- elders were asked to write extra notes in the margins -- such as the six things not to say on the forms when disfellowshipping etc.. -- such as never implicate the legal department and all good stuff like that
