How quickly we forget brothers and sisters... that 4 years of the Awake magazine was equal to a college education... lest we forget!

How about giving Brooklyn a months notice.
by edmond dantes inin light of the new disfellowship guide lines which are there to protect the combined asses of the governing body will they be announcing from the platform the names of reinstated ones as and when it happens and how will these new rules from gestapo h.q.
apply to the ones who can't make their mind up whether it's the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth ?.
will there be a get out clause for the now you see them now you don't believers because this happens to many many people while the penny makes it's slow drop?.

The least I was asked for as a kid, when I had a paper route, was a months notice.
And maybe the publisher can send back all of his/her WT stuff FED EX C.O.D. Tons of literature COD to Ted's attention.

I sent 3 letters to the GB and a cross-tabulation anaylsis of their prophecies from 1799 - 1975. The committee meetings received the reponses.

Spartacus
by sass_my_frass ini watched spartacus the other day and was reminded of every district convention drama i've ever seen; the style of music, the style of cheesy 'olden times' garb, the way men treat women, the corny dialogue, the way the 'loose' women were supposed to have dressed (they all wore fluoro nylon shifts apparently, with gold braid criss-crossing their cleavage just so), the melodrama, the righteousness... ah the fifties.. and yet, it was still the most interesting thing that happened for three days, at any dc..

Solving the Somalia Piracy Problem - Debate Here...
by Confucious inhey friends.... ok. i'm not saying that i have the solution to the somalia piracy problem.
saturday's wall street journal had a whole article on this.. he's my solution.
debate me, add to it, or come up with your own solution.. but the problem seems to that "people" are obviously paying the ransom demands.. lets face it... you have $100 million in oil - pirates sieze the ship - and they ask for 10 million or they blow up the ship.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses take responsibility for anything?
by BonaFide innow that i am opening my eyes more and more, i am starting to realize that jw's don't see the need to take responsibility for anything.. like in the wt for this week, if a jw marriage fails, they can say it was because they didnt pray enough, or preach together enough.. if an elder gives counsel about anything, then if it seems to work for the person, then he accepts the praise or says it came from jehovah.. but if things don't work out, then the elder will blame the person for not following the counsel right.
or he will tell them to wait on jehovah.. or if there is a wrong teaching, it is never really wrong, it is only the light getting brighter.. it doesnt really matter what happens in a persons life, it is never the fault of jw's or teachings or decisions.
they will say that jehovah is allowing this test, or that the person didnt follow the counsel, or that jehovah is doing things in a special way, or that we don't know yet why that happened, but we will.. for a person that has a comfortable life, and things going pretty well, and they never ask the elders for help, often they think that is jehovah's blessing.. but if something big goes wrong, and the elders give bad advice, or they punish someone and call it "help" and they mess up a persons life, it completely doesnt matter to them.
