I don't believe Johnny either. I was on the six screens last night and found he did not give any straight answers, nor any useful information that would show he knew anything about what was going on in Bethel. When asked about the names of the current GB, he stumbled at first then recouped himself and managed to name them all.
Not once did he use the term "brother" he only rattled off last names. It seemed to me he was reading off a list, I waited a few minutes and asked again. This time, he did not hesitate but named all them in the SAME EXACT order he did the first time. Then, he threw out information I did not ask about the GB. I was suspicious so I googled the GB of the WT and immediately wikipedia came up and it had the GB in the EXACT order that Johnny put them in, not once but twice. And in addtion contained the other information johnny added.
In addition to that, I caught him in several lies. He knew NOTHING about he vow of poverty the bethelites take. Some on the conference call claimed Johnny proved he was at bethel because he knew about the cleaning arrangement and morning service. I knew many pioneers who went to Bethel and they relayed the same information to me.
Anyway, everything he talked about was already mentioned on jw.net, freeminds, jwmedia.org, or babara andersons website. Nothing new was shared. Johnny mumbled thru some information about the Jeremiah book but just gave his own opinions. He knows absolutey nothing about the organization that any run of the mill R&F witness would not know. I think he is regular jw bored and wants to feel important.
Apparently he sent a copy of his id card from Bethel "via email" to Rick which is useless as I got a copy of a bethel ID card myself online and today photo shopped my face on it. Next time I see Rick I will show it to him, thus proving I am a bethelite too. Peace, Lilly
