Vacation Time! Going To A Regional?

by millie210 in

this is the first year i have not been at a summer assembly.. the friends here locally just got back from the regional in our area.. they mostly took their vacation time from work to attend.. while they were gone i had an epiphany...... why is it that the rank and file take their summer vacation time to attend an assembly (we have all heard this hammered in from the platform) whereas the governing body attend as part of their "work".. it cant be as simple as "well, they are giving talks" because there are many brothers that give talks from the rank and file also who have used up precious vacation hours and drug their entire family there plus give their parts.. or what about other brothers and sisters who volunteer and clean at the assembly.

on vacation.. so the pubs.

travel at their own expense, pay for their own rooms and food, and give parts and it is supposed to be viewed as their vacation.. the gb and c.o.s travel to the same assembly and stay in provided for accomadations, give a talk or two and they are "working".. what is that about?.

Oh yeah...the CO's and GB are rock stars!

Give us more, more, more. Think about this too. There are many wealthy Brothers and Sisters who own expensive homes on the beach, etc. You know they let these leaches "use" their expensive homes on their vacations. I'm sure they are fed well too. Looks like most of them could skip a couple of meals. Also...green handshakes!

These people wouldn't know how to survive if they had to have a secular job and pay their own bills.

Look at all the laid off Bethelites who had to go back home and learn to survive. If they didn't have family help them, they were screwed.

This is an ALL TAKE cult. No give!!!!

Here is the site I found the photo. If it is photo shopped...someone did a great job with the details!

I believe it is real. I know it is very hard to believe how crazy the org has become.

"we published a landmark Awake! magazine over 30 years ago. IT was the issue of June 22, 1982"

To bad this very important magazine is not available on the WT online library! ONLY new light from 2000 till 2015 is available.

I guess old light is okay when it serves them!

You can be a Professor at a University but no higher Ed. for Jdubs WTH?

anybody know about a brother h. latchman in fl.

a jw elder was talking to me about him.

he was so impressed with the fact that he was a. sub.

ToesUp

How can an Elder (who has his kids in College) get up on the stage and read a Watchtower against education? How can he sit there in judgement of others when he is going against the GB (Jehovah)? Do as I say not as I do. HYPOCRISY 101!!

As long as it serves "kingdom interests ($$$$$$)"....it's ok.

Celebrating small victories

by StarTrekAngel in

don't want to get into a lot of detail but it seems like my wife is finally having some flashes of awareness.

she's got them before, but not in very touchy subjects.

she was willing to seat down with me and look over some websites talking about some very controversial subjects that i do not dare to write about at the moment.

ToesUp

Good to hear.

Don't give up hope. It took my husband to show me a few things before I put 2 and 2 together. It did not take long.

Worried much Tony? Like someone said, if it wasn't a huge problem, they would not mention it. It is having a huge impact along with:

1. Decrease in Donations.

2. Brothers not reaching out.

3. Young ones holding back on baptism.

4. People dropping like flies (the reason for the Come back to Jehovah brochure)

5. Pedophile issues.

I know that we are excited to hear them discuss these issues. It means they are very worried. As they should be!!!

Oh boy...AMIII again! What a treat! The WORST speaker ever!

He also gives a talk at the RC about JW's not judging other. Narcissists NEVER think they have the problem. It's always the other guy with the problem.
