  So question...who dropped off that Bethel attorney @ college? Was it the organization? So if that attorney screws up do they have to step down? If an Elders kid decides to screw up, don't they blame the parents? Daddy has to step down (even if he did a bang up job raising his kids?). 

  "Who dropped them off there"? How smug can you get!

  Also, becoming a Nurse can take up to 4 years of college (if you need to take your core classes). Becoming a nurse is alot of work.

  These guys are so out of touch with reality. Come live in the "real world" with all of us tax payers with a mortgage/rent payments. Come join us for 2-3 hours or more a day, sitting in the city traffic and rushing home to get the kids ready for the meeting. Heaven forbid if you're late!!!! Come help us out with the lawn maintenance/home maintenance on the weekends. I guess that would be "our fault" too. They would just say..."who burdened you down"? Who bought the house? It's ALWAYS YOUR fault, not ours.

  Sorry for the rant.

  That idiot is at it again!

  In one of his previous talks I heard, he spoke about University teaching Philosophy I and Philosophy II. Yeah Tony...if students take these courses they may find out that their religion is a crock of s***.

  Hey Tony (if you or one of your "boys" is reading this)...keep up the good work. Trust me...people are starting to figure things out on their own. Keep plugging the Internet, it's working GREAT!

  We just watched this. All we can say is WOW. We witnessed something similar in our KH, several years back. A sister (disfellowshiped) suddenly lost her infant. When we attended the funeral most of the congregation shunned her. We never forgot it. It sickened us!

  The story is tragic but we truly believe this is how some of the Elders handle the sheep. We have watched it all of our lives (born ins).

  They are always speaking about blood guilt but they have ALOT of blood on their hands.

  They came, they saw, they left...

  during the holiday period one if my wife's brothers had planned a vacation in our area.

  they drove about 6 hours to a condo they leased for a week to celebrate their wedding anniversary with their married son and daughter.

  they called my wife to let her know they were coming to visit us since they were 2 hours away.

  In my experience the only time the uber family comes around is if you can do something for them, i.e. a free place to stay or cash. You may get something from them when they attend an assembly or elders meeting that makes them feel guilty that you are "weak". The feeling goes away VERY fast. If they can't count their time, you are just not worth the effort. They have more important things to do. 

  The only time our COBE calls or texts us is when the CO is in town. He doesn't want to get his butt chewed out for not doing this "task".

  Like I have said before...let the elders know that you need something (money, assistance in moving or help around your home), you will never hear from them again (maybe just a phone call or text that the CO is in town this week).

  Can you feel the love? The biggest bunch of Hypocrites I have ever met!!!

  In this weeks meeting regarding hospitality.  The kingdom ministry stated the following:

  “The elders take the lead in arranging for visiting speakers to receive hospitality and reimbursement for their travel expenses.”

  Is this a new thought?  Reimbursing speakers for travel expenses?  I don't remember this being done in my area before.

  so if we pay for their meal. Pay for their travel expenses.  Is this not a paid clergy.?

  Notice:  Attempted Suicides or Threatened Suicide. It does not mention anything about getting that person professional help. This is exactly what that person needs, not a bunch of unskilled, untrained wanna be's reading scriptures to a suicidal person. 

  This organization could care less about the people, just covering their a**. I would not want the legal liability of being an Elder or CO. 

  This organization has "pushed the envelope" with peoples lives and people are VERY angry. You can take just about anything from a man/woman but when you take their families away they get PISSED!

  I hope WBT$ has more lawsuits than they know what to do with. Maybe that's why they need more money!
