  my mom called me yesterday to ask how i was doing.

  i hadn't seen her in a while, so it was nice to hear her voice.

  we went through the motions of jw small talk and then she started telling me about her co visit from last week.

  The instructions state that if your equipment is not up to spec, then buy new equipment.

  
  

  I wonder if HQ will return some of that local savings account money they are holding so the congregations don't have to scrape up yet more money.

  A series of Public talks and Watchtower Studies will be streamed over the Internet (protected by special logins so that apostates can't sneak in - or the public, for that matter). 

  
  

  Not possible. WE ARE EVERYWHERE!

  Doomsday Clock moved ahead - Watchtower loves this stuff

  i remember references to the doomsday clock all the time when i was a kid (in the 80's).

  they moved away from it when the nuclear threat diminished.

  but it's back in the news again.. they will so be all over this like white on rice, as evidence that armageddon is just a whisper away.. http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/23/us/feat-doomsday-clock-three-minutes-midnight/index.html.

  I Feel So Much More Intelligent Now

  by OneFingerSalute in

  2. bible

  well i must say that after the serve us meeting tonight i feel so much more intelligent.

  almost as if i had four years of college condensed into ten minutes.. that is what was spent going on about how to use the glossary in the back of the "wonderful" new revised bible.

  we got a crash course on how to look up the words listed alphabetically.

  Now, when the elder finished presenting the material, the effect was that the congregation was astounded at his way of teaching; for he was teaching them as a person having authority, and not as some lowly college professor.

  Thanks, Splash. I don't think that's the one but I appreciate your input.

  
  

  I actually discovered the quote while lurking on this site so I know it's here somewhere. I just can't remember the wording accurately enough to   pull it out of the search engine.

  Just the fact that a little quip like that would capture the attention of the faithful slave so much that they just HAD to print it, is very telling of where their minds are with regard to education.
