Witness fear of demons why?
by donny in
1. jw
2. experiences
during my ten year sojourn through the watchtower, i was always amazed at the witnesses fear and fascination with demons.

occasionally at gatherings, they would exchange "demon" stories, which were just a jw way of telling ghost stories, and you would usually hear a few "uhhs" and "oh my's" as the story was told.

although i had heard folks of other denominations mention demons, it was never with the "shock and awe" the witnesses put into it.

charlize theron and jason bateman are great, but of course the gorgeous and talented lol will smith takes the cake.

there were other people who either killed themselfs or tried to kill themselfs while they were at "the house of god.

one person who did kill himself was richard wheelock, press room overseer ......he jumped out of a window at the watchtower farm one day.......it seemed, he was never quite the same after his wife "willy" died..she seemed to be the only one that he could relate to.......which would make sence.....because he sure couldn't relate to any of us in the press room..........he would come over to our press and say "here is the work... get in out".......then just walk away.......he was not the type of person you would really want to talk to anyway......but wouldn't it be nice if just now and then, like every year or two, they might ask you how you were doing?.........you laugh.......but its true......i asked a friend of mind who was the press operator of press # 6 which at the time was one of the three biggest presses at bethel.

he had been in the press room for 4 full years.

My Bethel Experience part 13

most of us went back to bethel, thinking we wanted to make it our life long career......what better place to be right before 1975?.............that dream ended for the vast majority after just few months there, when they found out that something was very wrong.

other wise why would anyone want to leave a spiritual paradice?....

with only 2-5% staying after there 4 year commitment, and a very big percentage leaving before there time was even up.

people would ask me "how long do you plan on staying at bethel" i would say "forever!.....or 4 years which ever comes first" .

besides the about 48 hours you worked there a week, you would have other duties too.

there was dish duties.
