Yet another kingdom hall being sold off

by pepperheart in

hi acording to a property website called rightmove a kingdom hall in dawlish devon is being sold off.. another poster has told us that in liverpool two more kingdom halls are being sold off, so this has been a good week .

stan livedeath

wow--£350 grand for the hall being sold. so that money will build a 1000 kingdom shacks in africa.!

you can see why the WTS is cherry picking some to be sold---not enough attending--and a nice big wad of money.

UK number plate

by stan livedeath in

here in the uk--private--or personal- car registration plates are popular.. heres one i photo'd tonight.. .

stan livedeath

the UK DVLA run a website of unissued registrations that anyone can buy and assign to their vehicle. there are 1000's available. my plate--M 666 XJW cost me £250 including the tranfer fee and value added tax ( VAT ).

i sold the car last november--but retained the registration ( termed on retention ). this cost me £80----which includes applying it to another car if i choose to.

Todays Daily text is yet another gem of spiritual encouragement

by NikL in

wednesday, march 29.

if a man takes a false step before he is aware of it, you who have spiritual qualifications try to readjust such a man in a spirit of mildness.—gal.

kindness can help you to deal with a conflict of loyalties.

New letter about Circuit Conventions accounting procedures

by Hecce in

i hope that one of the friends will post the letter soon.

i heard that on 3/27/2017 a letter with new instructions about the accounts at the circuit conventions was released.

the letter seems to adopt many of the corrections that had been suggested here at the forum, among other things during the accounts report they will be no mention of the per capita and the amount due is going to be released only to the elders.

its the amount of revenue the cult requires for each bum on a seat x the number of bums estimated to attend. scam victims coming to drink lifes water free.

The Latest Trend in NW England: Homeschooling Your Children

by pale.emperor in

i dont know if this is becoming a national thing or even globally.

but im hearing more and more people i knew from my jw days have taken their kids out of school to home school them instead.

in my sisters case she's taken her 8yo and 6yo children out already and her 3yo wont ever start a school.

stan livedeath

the only couple i knew of--here in the UK--that home schooled their ineducable offspring were shining examples of low life trash--weed smoking--drowning in debt--living in rented squalor. they just couldnt be bothered to get out of bed in the morning. home schooled meant--no schooled.

oh--er--no they werent dubs

Aren't you a bit amazed that the WTS/JWS is still around ?

by Finkelstein in

i know i am, to me its a bit of a peculiar anomaly that the wts is still around and functioning in reflection of its decades and now complete century that the wts has been bullshitting to people .

organizations like the church of god have shrunk dramatically from its heyday of the 1980's, this too was another organization that spread and grew by publishing its own magazine proclaiming a armageddon soon doctrine and its main publication was called " the truth " .

i'm guessing some of this has to do with the fact that people who get lured into this cult aren't aware of its past, its doctrines, the people who started it and so forth.

pale :

i can see a number of ones a few years younger than me that are just waiting for their parents to die so they can stop going to the meetings.

good point. my first (ex) wife is a born in.. both her fanatic parents are long dead...both my more liberal parents are gone too.

i sometimes wonder if my ex wife will die before me--we are about the same age. our daughter and husband have 4 girls of their own--so no elders there ! will they still stay in the cult when granma dies ?

my older son (41) is d/f and long gone from it. just my younger son (39)..who i think is a m/s--but no contact from him in 30 years now.

in my opinion--just young mothers who dont want to get up in the morning to get their kids ready to go to school.
