  Hey Shawn, what do you mean gotta go? Did they end the call or did you? Just wondering how they responded to you?

  Very Nice!

  Good job!

  I wish the watchtower would be humble enough to admit it in their publication that they made a mistake.

  That would be a true miracle.

  I have a feeling that those operators get rotated fairly frequently.

  Those of you who called have my utmost admiration. Those are people answering the phone -- people with underwear, shoes, bad breath and wrinkles, doubts, foibles, likes and dislikes, feelings of superiority and inferiority. If what you do or say contributes to a higher than normal turnover at these phone stations perhaps someone will get the message.

  I'm glad I'm not at one of those phones.

  Good job, D.T.

  Did you get the impression that those who are lower on the food chain are "sincerely misguided"?

  Or do you think all at Bethel are pretty much sharks that are very much aware and part of the evil agenda?

  Do you think they are going to man the phones in the future with "dedicated loyal ones" who will cover it up and give a better excuse?

  This will be interesting to see.

  Did they speak as though they had been "coached" to answer those questions?

  Or did you think you truly caught them "off guard"?

  Thank you for all the comments and support.

  Tula, I hope to have better answers for your questions after I make more calls, but I'll share my current thoughts.

  I think most are sincerely misguided, but I'm sure there are a few that know what is going on and have some selfish interest in supporting it.

  Interesting question. I think they have a dilemma. If they man the phones with inexperience ones, they will be a high turnover rate. If they use more experienced and loyal people, they will probably lose some people who can do a lot more damage if they turn apostate. Does anybody know how they handle this?

  I'm sure they get a lot of coaching and supplemental mind control. I think the person I talked to was unprepared for my question. I just asked for a public statement of their view of the UN and later explained why I was confused about where they stood. I think he was a little embarrassed that there wasn't anything on their websites and he couldn't give me a reference newer than 1991. I think he sincerely believed his explanation, but if he sincerely does research so he can better answer questions like mine, then he might be in for a surprise.

  Would anyone like to recommend a topic for March first? Some have already mentioned the idea of talking about the pedophilia scandal. It might also be worth asking about the recent layoffs at Bethel, since that is an issue that will probably be on everyone's minds.

  While reading the Bethel Layoff thread, I was thinking that would be a good topic: Taking a person's most productive years and then tossing them out with little to no options to support themselves.
