Watchtower Bethel Application from 2004
Questions asked tell their own story.
Today I posted onto my blog the Watchtower Bethel Application from 2004, available at: http://marvinshilmer.blogspot.com/2011/03/watchtower-bethel-application-from-2004.html

Priceless........"Have you ever had a homosexual relationship?..if so please explain why..."
Have you ever engaged in child molestation?.......WTF?
Undergoing surgery or some invasive medical procedure would be easier than filling out this application. I suppose they had their reasons for asking the questions they did, but it is clear that the object was to select young men who could be controlled. They were looking for drones. I'm aware that some go to Bethel and actually make advancement mentally and emotionally, but this questionnaire makes it clear that the selection committee doesn't care about that. I have never set foot in Brooklyn Bethel or any of the other headquarters buildings in other countries. After reading this application form, I am certain now that I never will. Furthermore, I would strongly discourage my son (if I had one) from ever thinking about living and working in such a place.

Q."Have you ever had a homosexual relationship?"
A. No, but I am sure Bethel will afford me many opportunities.
Q. "Have you ever engaged in child molestation?"
A. No, but I am sure Bethel will aford me many opportunities.
I am sure they are looking for candidates with experience in these areas, adequately qualified.
So am I the only one who wants to fill this out in absolute honesty and send it in?
LOL, I'm with you, Tuesday
Classic!!
Do you listen to heavy metal, rap (oops RAP) or other music inappropriate for Christians?
Do you watch material inappropriate for Christans such as 18-rated films/videos?
And neither question with a biblical reference...nope...a WT publication reference.
Smells culty to me!
and this is what my parents wanted for me, my goodness.

OK so I'll do it if you promise to do it with me. I actually used to listen to the whole Norweigan Black Metal scene when I was younger. Now it's more punk music, I think for that question I would ask if certain bands were considered acceptable like Diecide, Cannibal Corpse, Bad Religion, Megadeth, Ja-Rule, and Xzibit.
I wonder if just that font makes anyone else sick or is it just me. I never see that font anywhere else but WTBS forms.
