  Canadian branch getting rid of their trucks and drivers

  by wannaexit in

  a recent letter to the elders outlined the new arrangement for delivering literature to the congregations.

  the canadian branch will be downsizing by eliminating drivers and trucks and utilizing commercial carriers to bring the boxes of monthly literature .

  more outsourcing and more lay offs.. the funny thing about it is that they want to have the literature delivered to various private homes of the rank and file rather than have the literature delivered to the kingdom hall.

  Persnally, I hope they empty all the bethels. It must cost a fortune to keep these theocratic motels ticking over.

  Geoffrey Jackson's Golden Apple watch INVESTIGATED

  i went through the original footage to get a good look at the watch.. from these pictures we can probably say that it is a apple watch and that it has a golden color.

  the color on the pin is black, and the band is white, grey, silvery or beige.. .

  the pin is in the exact place for it to be a apple watch.. only apple watch edition have the gold color.

  Where I live, it gets delivered by commercial courier to a centrally located brother's house and then the lit servant from each cong picks it up from there and takes it home to his house.

  the past week has been hell for me.

  my mother started feeling ill and we went to seek medical assistance.

  we live in the mountains and the nearest large hospital is about 150 kms away.

  So glad loving care and common sense prevailed for your mum.

  My friend who is a witness went through a similar situation when her mother needed a transfusion. The JW family requested erythropoitin and the hospital didn't said they didn't stock it as it is too expensive and they would have to order it in, which would take days. They ended up using whole blood and the lady was ok.

  But what really pissed me off was that my friend's mother wasn't even one of JWs, it was my friend who didn't want her to have blood!!

  after listening to the hearings of the australian royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse, i am no longer content to have simply walked away from the organization.

  as a matter of conscience, i do not want my name linked with the organization in any way.

  i know this letter has been posted previously, and i thank the author.

  Oh yeah, they are just bullies in a suit and tie.

  Sometimes all it takes is a few to storm the barricades and the rest will find their courage to do the same.

  When I think of the perks this religion must be eligible for, for it's not for profit status it makes me angry.

  They are a religion of free-loading bums.
