The "mis-truths" said by brothers during the Royal Commission.
by stuckinarut2 inmy sister said she heard several "mis truths" or dare we say, "lies" said by the brothers on the stand during the royal commission.. 1) vin toole lied when asked about the expression "theocratic warfare".
he said he was unaware of the term.
2) terry obrien lied when asked whether witnesses are free to research the organisation or free to leave without any negative consequences.. 3) geoff jackson lied when he said that the organisation doesn't run a 'police state' and doesn't criticise those who want to leave.

Pioneering
by Sabin ini`ve heard many pioneers claim that they are deserving of material things because they are the ones who make all the sacrifices.
one claimed that jehovah had made sure that she got absolutely everything she wanted right down to shelfs so she could put up pic`s of her family because, to quote "we are so deserving, we`ve made the sacrifice".
mind you this is the same sister who told me "it`s harder for me having my son d.fs than for a mother loosing her child in death".

I have heard the same thing from pioneers, special pioneers, COs, and my recent CoBE's wife how they want for nothing because so much is given to them for free, clothes, household items, furntiture, free weekends away etc. Yet there are others in the cong and people in the territory that have a genuine need that are being ignored and neglected by these "blessed" ones that "want for nothing."

Let’s Speculate!!!
by John Aquila inyou know the organization is slowly going down.
not as fast as we would wish, but nevertheless it is crumbling.
five (5) year old child baptisms, smaller magazines, child sexual abuse exposed, smaller annual growth, no one wants to reach out, young ones leaving.

The only hope for it's suvival is change.
If it is still around under the same name, it will be a social club with a suggestion book based loosely on the some scriptures.

Maybe he didn't push on certain questions because he already knew the answers.
They had all the relevant info in writing.

Theocratic warfare is hell! Also very stupid if you leave a trail.
