Brown shirt girl had her b00bs de-emphasized. Notice the shadow on her shirt has disappeared. Looks like they did a little similar tweaking on red shirt girl's shirt, too.

YPA change of picture
by dozy inanybody got any idea why the cover picture on the young people ask book was changed?
they removed the picture of the boy bottom right & superimposed a different head.
maybe the guy got dfd or maybe it was to change it to an asian guy rather than 2 caucasians?

Disfellowshipped people are dead people?
by snugglebunny inskimming though my iphone earlier today i came across a fb post - which i now can't find!.
basically it was a claim that a gb member had stated that associating with a disfellowshipped person was akin to sleeping next to a corpse.. so obviously i'm curious as to whether anyone else has come across this..

page 14, paragraph 5
5 A heartrending experience for Aaron’s family is recorded at Leviticus 10: 1-11. They must have been devastated when fire from heaven consumed Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu at the tabernacle. What a test of faith it was for Aaron and his family not to mourn their dead relatives! Are you personally proving yourself holy with regard to not associating with family members or others who have been disfellowshipped? —Read 1 Corinthians 5:11.

Study article: "Go, and Make Disciples.." is a hot mess
by Sanchy inso i hooked into meeting via phone this week to listen in and was shocked at the absurdities mentioned in the study article (2016 may watchtower: "go,..and make disciples of people of all the nations").
the answer is obvious—only jehovah’s witnesses.
the answer the missionary priest gave in no way proves that jws are the only ones "preaching the good news".

Is there a scripture where Jesus addresses hundreds of his disciples with the commission to tell the good news?
Parallel Gospels:

Matthew 28:16-20 is a stand-alone.

Has the Australian Royal Commision been shown the 2016 convention videos?
by stuckinarut2 inwonder if the arc have seen the series of videos being shown at the 2016 convention?.
part of their questioning was about the societies treatment of those who want to leave without prejudice or shunning from family.
for example, the way the parents kicked out the daughter, and refused to answer a phone call from her.... also they used the expression "a captive organisation",which jackson denied.. what about the paranoia and fear tactics used in the "bunker / basement" series?

Maybe I'm Just Ignorant About the New "Anti-Gay" Video

The real trick is this: They're not sending the JW kids out to directly convert (in this case) the homosexual parents.
No, they're having a child of a JW go to the gay couple's child and hold out the fake-ass hope of petting pandas and lions in a paradise. After the 'unbelieving' child gets baited into believing the more benign nonsense, then the fear-mongering will be implanted next.
What will that child do? Likely go home and ask/tell their 2 mommies that they're going to
burn in hellget killed during armageddon. That poor child is gonna have anxiety they wouldn't otherwise have had, foisted upon them by the JW classmate. -

Circuit Accounts Servants Confesses how the SCAM WORKS!!
Yes, I too have wondered how an assembly that is held in a fully paid for assembly hall, with no food service, could possibly have $10,000 in expenses. I suppose the bethel speakers have transportation expenses - maybe $1000 or so. As for rent on the assembly hall, well you have already paid for it once, why pay again?
I suspect that the society levies an expected contribution, based on attendance.
I used to be the assembly hall account overseer- and i will tell you exactly why you are ALWAYS IN THE RED-
they use some wacky formula to come up with a PER PUB RATE it varies---
when the accout overseer gets to the hall at about 6;30 7 AM on sat he meets with the assembly hall overseer who has a form ==
DAMN I SHOULD HAVE KEPT COPIES OF ALL THAT SH!T- I JUST WANTED to get the He!! out of WT when i got ready to leave= ANYWAY
It will show the number of pubs in the circuit "X" the rate let's say $11.25 per pub ( per capita )
975 pub X $11.75 = $11,450-+
and at this point before the assembly even starts
YOU ARE IN THE RED BEFORE THE DOORS EVEN OPEN with a deficit of over $11,000

Who goes about paying bills and has the throw-away expenditures (so-called worldwaidekingdom hall build donations, etc) paid for prior to their necessary ones (your electric and other utilities)? No family living on a real-life budget plans on their video game purchases and other fluff prior to taking care of their real bills.
Also, take note that the donation made is past tense, but the surplus/deficit is present tense:
2. Based on the funds available, a donation was made to the worldwide work in the amount of ______
6. Therefore, at this point we have a surplus/deficit of (difference between lines 4 and 5) _______
The donation was decided upon that same day, but they talk like the money has already been whisked away to watchtower.
