If it was a commissary situation he has zero right to complain. From day one you know the commissary is cash and cary. Just because you were asked to leave dosent entitle you to be able to take things from the commissary without paying. Thats exactly what i mean by exaggerating facts. They didnt ask him to pay for food because he was leaving, they asked him to pay for something he stole. We do no favour for the exjw community to with that sort of nonsense.

Yes it was two weeks to organize your affairs and arrange to get out. “Fair” by the worlds standards of terminating employment but definitely unloving for “gods people” to do to someone who has volunteered for a year or more at great personal expense.
If someone took me wrong and thinks im somehow defending the orgs hq, please understand bethel fucked me over for a year and i have zero love for them or the org as whole. I couldnt leave fast enough and its one of the reasons i eventually was able to leave, seeing what hq was really like... if someone just dosent like me calling bullshit on something that is clearly bullshit then feel free to continue allowing your hate to make you gullible. Bethel dosent charge for food. The only exception that someone mentioned was the commissary which is possible but i didnt include it that because the commisary was cash and carry when i was there, they didnt bill for it. That may have changed.
My philosophy remains: there is far more than enough to hang them for without making things up or exaggerating the facts.

You get notice. All bethelites get billed every month for “services” like phone calls. I call bullshit on the bill for fruit. The only exception would be if he were df’d. Then you are given a buss ticket and shown the door immediately, your possessions shipped to you later. Still no bill for food though.

Facial hair and Witnesses
by Jules Saturn ini never understood why the society was against beards or goatees but completely okay with mustaches.
what's the difference?
facial hair is facial hair, whether it's above your lip or around your cheeks or under your chin.

Punk, in almost certain that story is in print in the dubbies own literature. It is indeed one of the traditional reasons that beards are frowned upon, passed down generationally and nobody knows why and nobody will question.

As much as they tried in the past and continue to try now to pain themselves as “above common culture” dubbies have always been solidly in the middle of culture. Its far right american germanic culture but culture just the same. The old saying in america was the farther you got from brooklyn the more liberal the congregations got and it always seemed true to me. Facial hair and the view thereof came from the germanic heads if the org and those they taught to think like them. Its an old tradition hung onto because its an old tradition and anyone who thinks about it for 30 seconds sees that, but of course nobody wants the social stigma in dubbie land of bucking the system.

Pale.Emperor And The Hypnotists
by pale.emperor ineven as a jw i was fascinated with hypnosis and seeing people like derren brown putting people under almost instantly.
in the last 2/3 years when i was a jw but beginning to wake up from the bullshit i read up on hypnosis, watched a few youtube demos and explanations etc.
