  "Between the Lines" of the Branch Visit

  by TTATTelder in

  i am starting this thread to discuss the financial points i picked up during the branch visit.. firstly - as an elder we were told that all donations from the event - local and worldwide work were to be sent to the branch.

  first of all - could the money-grab be any more obvious given these instructions?

  is it even legal to take funds a person gave to a non-profit for one specific purpose (pay the light bill) to allocate them for another (www slush fund)?

  hi guys, ive finally got a copy of coc from my local library, im on page 120ish and im really enjoying it!

  the thing that gets me now that im enlightened is how little the rank and file know about anything this organazation does!

  everything is so secretive and covered up behind a curtain.

  Vic'n'Bob ... in the US?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  i must be mad for starting this thread, but here goes: i quite like vic reeves and bob mortimer.

  before you all jump on me, i realise that their humour is often childish and very hit-or-miss, to say the least.. however, when i'm in the right mood, some of their sketches are simply hilarious.. i was also wondering how british humour is received in other countries, particularly the us.. .

  I agree, brilliant! Went to see the big night out tour. Kind of 'of its time' though perhaps? Or of a certain age to appeal to..

  New light?

  by Ignoranceisbliss in

  my father who is an elder with decent organizational connections mentioned that very soon there would be "new light" regarding the resurrected being able to be married.

  this would make sense because our current understanding has never made any sense to me.

  has any one else heard anything about that?.

  Small (tiny) victories

  i had a conversation with my wife today about child abuse as it's in the news, and i managed to slip in the fact that wt (not an individual, but the .org itself) has just been ruled against in the states to the tune of 13 million or so.

  she knows i'm opposed to the procedures we have in place, and she can definitely see that it makes sense to go straight to the police, and said she would do immediately if it were our children.

  we had a fairly local case where the elders positively marched the offender to the station themselves, and good for them for doing so, but she most likely thinks everyone would do that out of common sense.

  Cheers Kate. It's taken me a long time to assimilate all the new information, (adopts yoda voice - strong the indoctrination is, in this one), but I'm much more ready to make a defense now. To all newbies to ttatt, HOLD UP, do NOT spout your mouth off, know your subject before you say anything. It's no good saying somethings not right without being able to show exactly why it isn't. I've still got a long way to go but I'm getting there.

  Very interesting, it's amazing how much insight we're getting into how the mind works. I suspect people like derren brown must have some natural ability to read people, cos he gave people a 'religious' experience in one of his televised shows..

  i apologize for not posting all the info with hi-lights, but it's nothing you geniuses can't figure out.

  i have no laptop and can't use the wife's, it's too risky.

  there are two websites i checked out, just out of curiosity.

  Hahaa, "does our brand tell the wrong (or outdated) story?"

  Yes.

  Yes it does.
