    There was a thread some weeks ago talking about a big shake-up at Mama's House(Bethell), has anyone heard anything. I have to admit it got my hopes up.

    Who knows? Even if the rumors are true, it could be years before something drastic happens. On the other hand, there have been a lot of changes lately. It's possible that this could be a response to fear or internal pressure.

    It's a house of cards. Just a matter of time in my opinion.

    How long can you keep a lie from people?

    Put all other threads together. Barbara Anderson posted a thread from either the New York Times or Brooklyn Chronicle with a verfiable link showing the Bossert Hotel or Stnadish arms was up for sale. It made the comment that the owners the WTS were moving out of Brooklyn. Couple that with other threads and the shakeup is al labout continuing downsizing of staff (new automated machinery at Walkill etc) and more long term Bethelites ar ebeing reassigned as special pioneers to the field

    Oompa,

    Masturbation is not currently a disfellowshipping offense...

    Thank God!

    P.S. Maybe they'll make it one and I could quote Scripture: "Who could stand?"

    Just don't say that it isn't as bad as the WTS says. That's far more serious and cause someone to be disfellowshipped for apostasy.
