One word...cowards. They wrote all kinds of info on Russia but nothing about the Australian Royal Commission. They don't want to be caught off guard. GB member Jackson did enough damage when he made his presumptuous statement. WT doesn't want that to happen again. They don't want the rank and file to see behind the curtain. Too bad for WT that people are looking behind it anyway.

Stonewalling and the Governing Body
by UnshackleTheChains inwhy do the gb stonewall individuals with legitimate questions.
for example, they refuse to speak to investagative journalists like trey bundy, unless they happen to get caught somewhere walking about in the street by chance.. i remember the panorama documentary 'suffer the little children' where the presenter tried to arrange an interview with one of the gb.
i can't remember if the gb either refused or simply didn't reply.

"The good far outweighs the bad."
Sorry...I respectfully have to disagree. I have always told my spouse, "when there's more wrong than right in the org, I'm outta there." Don't knock it til ya try it. Lol Much much happier and content than ever.

In WT land you have instant "friends." These "friends" will drop you like a bad habit as soon as you don't tow the WT line. Not worth it!

The typical JW brag fest. Post pics of your little Uber's. JW mindset, "my uber kid is much more spiritual than your uber kid." We've seen it a million times over the years.

Thank you Wifi.
Looks like another recruitment letter. WT is looking for trained dubs. Free labor so they can continue to build their empire off the backs of the clueless rank and file! Follow the money!!!

The big mistake of jw.org property management
by Gorbatchov intoday i read some news story's about the property deals of jw.org in brooklyn.
they made good money and good connections.. but i'm sure jw.org made a very, very big mistake in brooklyn.
they did.. they sold and are selling all the property for money.

Gorby - Why not long term leasing them for devolpment by a third party?
This is a great point. They could have remodeled their river front properties into apartments, lofts, offices, etc... Using all their FREE labor force. Still kept ownership of the buildings, hired a Management Company and been cash flow rich landlords, while the value of their assets grew!

The point at which you think this may not be the truth
by LevelThePlayingField ini remember one of the nights that i found out the truth wasn't the truth, that is after finding out about the united nations, i remember riding my bicycle from like 1am till 5am in the city night.
it was rather chilly, maybe about 55-60 degrees and i was playing pink floyd's dark side of the moon album in my earbuds.
just riding and riding, not really tiring because of the thought that 7 men in brooklyn had duped me, duped me for like 20 plus years.

When we saw the hypocrisy and double speak. The blatant lack of love from some members. Abuse from the Elders and CO's. When we heard the zone meeting talk by Anthony Morris, that was it. It was over for us. We will NEVER return.
