    Maybe something got lost in the translation? Perhaps it should have said, "asked to leave"? Of course, that is still a e uphemism for, "You're fired!"

    They were offered the PRIVLEDGE of devoting ALL their time to their ministry. I hope they thanked the brothers.

    I thought it had been posted on here that Larry and Wally had been a bit to questioning or critical of some of the material that they were expected to teach in Gilead. I guess there was a committee that went easy on them, such that they only got kicked out of Bethel and not DFd.

    I heard from a JW friend of mine (he is still a believer gag!) that Wally and his wife were assigned out as special pioneers somewhere in northern NJ. He is still an elder from what he said.

    In Gilead, Liverance made some conjecture about the 7000 year creation periods that I found disturbing. I had thought that the Society had abandoned the 7,000 year creative day stuff (as in the old green Bibles). And he re-iterated the idea that if we would know the age of Adam when Eve was created we would be able to predict the date of Armageddon, tho Wally insisted that it must be really, really, really close.

    Bowen supposedly knew Hebrew and Greek, so given the Society's stance on not researching the Hebrew and Greek, that was bound to get him in trouble, LOL.
