    Hi everyone,

    I was searching for info on JW's & ran across the Bethel couchtours. They claim they aren't owned by the WTS. http://www.bethelcoachtours.com/english.htm

    What does their business license say? Does anyone know?

    They also have a bethel couchtour online store. Check this out.

    They offer trips not only to NY but to other world wide branches. Check this out. You can also get 'free' color flyers. How about if we all request them. They don't know that we're not going to tour.

    One possible way to get more info is to go the the state's Dept. of Corporations website (for whatever state this company is in). There you can find out the registered agent, president, vice pres, etc.

    They are JW owned....by a JW businessman. They claim no ties to the WTBTS, yet all of their literature is about the society and Bethel...getting there and see it. How many "worldly" travel agents have that kind of access?

    I got the full package; I responded to the e-mail link and even got a NO BLOOD keychain.

    I threw it out. My husband thought I was nuts for even getting on their list. I now get e-mails with special offers about 3 times a month.

    Next e-mail I get I will post.

    Anyone want to go see the inner workings with me? We can hop a bus (sponsored by them) and get in! HeHe

    hmm ... you can buy a bookmark there for $2:-

    "tolerant men are never stupid, and stupid men are never tolerant"
    Item's Value: 2 Travel Points
    $2 USD Item Number: BCT017

    this wouldn't seem to apply to the Borg ...

    I have to imagine that the Bethel Cou chtours are for lazy couch potato Dubs who prefer not to expend the effort to get on the Bethel Coachtours bus.

    I thought they were just told the net was bad, or wait a minute that's next months KM. So if you pioneer or spend so many hours in"service" it's ok to sell things on the net?

    Would Bethel Coachtours be willing to take a BUSLOAD of us to the SILENT LAMBS MARCH ????? There would be lots of room on a big coach/bus to take along lots of stuffed toy lambs! That would be keewwel! The bus could stop all up the East Coast and pick up anybody on the way who wants to go to the March but is so far without transportation.

    Seriously! They wouldn't have to know we were apostos until they dropped us off! (Then we might be stuck with no ride home if they cancelled our return trip!)

    LOL @ Nathan! Even though I read your post previously, it didn't hit me until just now as I see the Subject line! LOL!

    That would get the media's attention too.
