Do they they'll be able to control whose hands their information reaches? In this day and age! That is funny. Stilla is already setting up his fax machine . . . LOL

If this is protection ... throw me to the wolves!
by Frequent_Fader_Miles inpage 93 of the 1991 "flock book" discusses the treatment of victims of sexual abuse.
it states that elders should always do what they reasonably can to protect children from further abuse; follow the society's direction on such matters.
isn't that somewhat of an oxymoron?

The elders are so freakin scared to encourage you to go see a therapist . . . "well we can't tell you not to see a therapist . . . blah blah blah. Whenever i think of this idiot elder telling me that I get so pissed off.

Computer Techs?
by sandy inok, in layman's terms .
can someone explain to me the technology of fax to email?
i surfed the web but only found where to buy the software and whenever i call a company they either do not know or just don't want to tell me.

Thanks for the responses. I'm not sure what I need here or at least how to get it.
What I want is a program that will allow me to set up multiple accounts and each account able to receive fax information and stored in a file. I guess I knew or at least had an idea how it works. But can any of you recommend a software program?
I'm so tired right now . . . so I may be repeating myself or just not making sense. Thanks again. -

Thinking that the "end of the system" is "just around the corner" from the time I could form a thought instilled absolutely no ambition in me. I finished High School in 1994 and never even applied to college. School was never important . .. I didn't even take the SAT I'd always said I'd pioneer and find a part time job after HS but by then I knew I didn't want to pioneer.
I was 18 yrs old and had freedom I'd never new before. I was finally unshackled from school and I moved out of my parents home and in with my sister. I wanted to go out and party with friends and date. So that is what I did . . . Never anything that wild but I had some fun times. Unfortunately it took about eight years of working low paying jobs and weekend partying (Ok, sometimes weekday partying to ) before I realized College would have been a better route to take. I've wasted so much time. HUGE REGRET! Even though I've been in active for so many years I was still controlled to a certain degree by the WT. Through these years I took community college courses to help me with jobs but I am still far behind many people my age.
So even though I don't dwell on it (because I know that now the choice is mine to cont. my education or not) I do feel cheated. The WT org. controlled my mind, suppressed my talents and ambition. -

30 Minute Public Talk-CONFIRMED
by stillajwexelder ini can confirm (as there seems to be some doubt) at the service meeting last night during the item about the new watchtower, a letter was read by the po.
the public talk is to be 30 minutes long.
this is to allow for more association and ministry.. lengthy negative introductions about the state of the system of things/deep last days etc are to be heavily curtailed.
-
sandy
I agree with Aude and Mum . . .
No more negative emphasis in the state of the world and last days? As Aude said that is pretty telling. Is it possible the Witnesses will become more mainstream in the future?
And with a more positive public talk visitors will not be as offended or turned off to their message and perhaps they'll be a little easier to convert. We all know more converts = more $$$.
I guess we'll have to wait and see what the tone will be in future WT literature . . .
