    I can remember going on at least 3 tours.and then going to a bethelite room,everyone would feel so important when they were invited .sisters especially would turn cartwheels when invited to a bethel room,i guess in the hopes that the bethelite was interested in romance.20 people jammed into 10 ft by 10ft room sharing 2 pizzas.the last time i was there a friend said to me with a laugh i cant believe we help pay their rent.lol ahh the memories

    I remember when I was a kid I went on a tour of the Columbia Heights complexes. One thing that stands out in my mind was when the tour guide jokingly said that nothing was wasted, not even dead bethelites - they were turned into glue for the literature. [8>]

    AHAHAHA! I wouldn't be surprised, what with the way they make those old, 90 year old dudes put together coathangers or something...

    yes. The Stanley Theature. How proud they are of that facility. I don't understand why. Put off the showy displays of the flesh?
