    Have I missed something? Who are the writers of this letter? Is it an official letter (i.e., approved by the Watchtower Society)? If not, why are people quoting it as if it were an official letter?

    Now that an article has appeared in our local newspaper, we are now able to confirm what some of you have heard rumors about. Yes, Watchtower Farms is once again expanding!

    Wait a minute! I thought the newspapers and media were being run by Satan the Devil! Why aren't they being condemned for "spreading lies" and "telling half truths"???? Oh I forgot. In this particular case, no children were being molested.

    It is currently felt this will be a five to seven-year project. (Here is the chance for all of you to apply as temporary workers!)

    A five to seven year project? Are they insinuating that Armageddon isn't 'imminent' and 'right around the corner?' Why are they making long-term plans in this wicked System of Things when the R&F are told that things like higher education is a waste of time given where we are in the stream of time.........

    The Bethel family has been shrinking as a whole as most of you know.

    Ya.....it's called laying workers off to save $$$ in case one of them needs medical care that Crooklyn would have to pay for.

    To be able to do more work with less people has certainly been the goal, enabling more to concentrate on the preaching work.

    It also frees up alot more cash that went towards paying off victims of child abuse in the Organization.

    Not only is property expensive in the city, but the maintenance is extensive.

    And so is that huge pedophile pay out to the victims. We've got to free up some cash.

    Every single last MF thing has to have it's positive spin.

    The sad thing is we individually advocated this crap to thousands of people.

    So let me get this straight -- are the downloadable mags only going to be available in audio? Or will they also provide them as a printable document? (i.e. pdf)

    So what's the big deal about WT farms? I thought they only grew food for the bethelites anyway , Maybe they are planning to become like the Amish , I'm ready to start hearing about cult compounds but yah you are right if they keep saying the end is sooooooooooooooooooo close but then turn around planning on spending years building something that according to them probably won't even be finished , sounds very suspect to me.

    Yay.

    No salary. No security. Looks crap on your CV. Why do people do this again?
