    One former Bethelite was talking about a close relationship he had with a Governing Body member. (I happen to have a couple of tapes of this GB member the former Bethelite mentioned. They were talks he gave on prayer. If only these GB men could publish what they really know and believe. If only they could follow through with the material they used to relate in the 'special' talks they would give before the big 'apostate' crunch of the 1980s to present.)

    On one occasion, this former Bethelite was having a private discussion with this GB member. They discussed the Bible at times as part of their normal dialogue. The GB member then made the comment that the Society has 'it' all wrong, and everything they teach needs to be junked into the trash. He noted they the Society needed to start all over from the beginning, at Genisis 1:1 and completely reinvent their religion.

    The Point: I find it strange that these men can make such sweeping statements, such total and wholesale abandonment of their religion in private, and seek to start over, when at the very same time, what they do publish is harming the flock, such as, but not limited to: Shunning, no blood, door-to-door religious selling, children not being properly educated through college, etc. All along, these men who publish what they are willing to call 'truth' do not believe what they are publishing. This is done to such an extent that they are willing to 'toss it all' into the waste bin. What a sad and cruel joke the leaders of the Watch Tower are perpetrating on the ignorant and unsuspecting JWs. - Amazing

    Hi Amazing-

    That is like the conversation that my brother in law had with a member of the GB while serving at Bethel...This GB member who is now deceased said that the JWs should sue the organization for fraud because of all the false prophesies and failed predictions that it made as God's channel.

    Hi Amazing,

    Exactly what I was saying on another thread. They HAVE TO BE AWARE of the farce. Why can't Ray Franz see this? Maybe he is a lot smarter than I and figures you can catch more bees with honey, or whatever that saying is.

    Hi 68Storm: Ray Franz sees the farce. that is why he left 'IT' 20 years ago, wrote two books that thoroughly exposed 'IT', and has since been a great source of information and help to many thousands of former JWs. Ray Franz was able to overcome the corruption, the spiritual gravity, and show greater concern for truth and for people, than the concern for 'IT', that is the Watch Tower organization. As a result, Ray is held in high esteem by tens of thousands, and maybe a million or more, former JWs and many non-JWs ... he told the truth, to his credit, and a fine legacy to his reputation as a good person. - Amazing
