    Yes there were some disdainful & derogatory comments to JWs who died in the workforce on 9/11.

    ""Not being in service thats what happens to you"".

    Who in the hells donations & contributions were enabling you to live at bethel then???? Hmmm??

    The working class.

    I recall a JW who was killed in a storm while at home when the congregation was meeting miles away in the local KH. The comments during the meeting implied that if she had been present at the KH, she would still be alive. The audience seemed to have no compassion for the death of their sister.

    Later, a KH was the target of a terrorist attack, and a few JWs lost their lives. No one offered that they might still be alive if they had stayed at home that morning.

    JWs forget Jesus words regarding the ones who died when a well known tower fell. It seems so simple to understand but JWs do NOT understand. Why? Because they have forgotten what genuine affection is. Instead, every tragedy is an opportunity to belittle others, elevating themselves as they bash the unfortunate souls who cannot defend themselves.

    THOMAS MORE:

    You are correct that JWs have forgotten what genuine affection is and they DO belittle others so as to elevate themselves.

    Regarding the cruel remarks that were rumored to have been made on 9/11: I would like to think that any person or persons who even think like this were hopefully let-go in one of the downsizings at bethel.. They would have deserved to have experienced first hand what it’s like outside in the real world.. Maybe they would be reminded of the cruel and stupid remarks every day when they go to work for that brother who is barely tolerating them!
