I agree steve, that's what happens when you volunteer to go to bethel, you are on borrrowed time and one day you will be asked to leave. Whether you are a bethelite, or a mob member the same principle applies; whatever goes around within that group eventually comes around.

I ran into some bethel "bad batch" rejects a couple in their fifties and the wife was desperately trying to cling to whatever dignity and social cred she thought she still had but the hubbie definitely would have talked more candidly if she didn't keep changing the subject to a more postive tone.
I asked him what was going to happen to the branch, if they would sell of some properties and he said
" Of course they will they're not sentimental about it."
Me : "Well they 're not sentimental about people why would they be sentimental about buildings."
At about that point the missus quickly changed the subject to how wonderfully they were supported by the congregation. He would have talked more if she let us.

Accounts report at Circuit Assemblies to go away
by LevelThePlayingField ini was at the regional convention and asked an elder why is that at the assemblies their is an accounts report but not at the conventions?
he said, well actually they got a letter and in it said that in a little while they will do away with the accounts report stating how much the assembly costs for the weekend and just go to donation basis like at the conventions.. my first thought was, "they will donate even less now.".
anybody else hear about such a thing?.

Maybe the deficit report will be replaced by an "encouraging" video or song.

I Think Their Is A Move Coming From Higher Ups To Get These Insane Idiot Out Of The Drivers Seat Of Jehovah's Chariot
by Brokeback Watchtower inlook at all the lawsuits, scandals, unsuccessful cover up, contribution shrinkage, stopped building project, and much more.
these guys are steering jehovah's chariot off a cliff if someone don't put the breaks on these delusional clowns.. so what do you think is there something a foot there at chemical dump clean up site warwick?
i bet you a coup is in the offing, because you know not everyone close to the governing body believes their bull shit but are playing along until the time is right to keep the wt ship from sinking like the titanic..

Plus, none of the GB have enough qualifications between them to run a school fete and granted that might explain the woeful wastefulness of funds that has come to this point but would you seriously leave the likes them to make important business decisions on anything important if WT were your ongoing concern? They serve a purpose because they are useful idiots.

Why Do People Oppose Jehovah's Witnesses?
by BlackSpirit injesus christ, the son of the most high god, jehovah has this to say: "if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
if you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own.
now because you are no part of the world, but i have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.

Leaked videos - Why?
by NewYork44M inthank you to those that have passed on "leaked" videos.
one point that i have not seen discussed is "why" apostates are getting these videos.. are videos getting out because of a lack of internal controls, or are there more than a few disloyal insiders that are more than happy to pass on inside information.
or, is there a strategic intent of releasing leaked videos?.
-
sparrowdown
Yes I have wondered myself about who, how and most importantly why they (WT) have not made some attempt to go after YT channels showing these leaks.
Why isn't there a leaked video of an internal talk about leaked videos? Does it suit them to "leak" info?
In the latest convention series there is a video showing persecution in Russia. The russian police are filmed right from when they get out of the vehicles and are followed every step of the way through the KH closely by the camera man who gets right in on the action. I though who's filming and why are the russian police not at least attempting to look at the camera man and ask him to sit down and stop following them? So who was filming? There was something off...staged about it to me.
