  In mine the Kids all talk about business during and after the meetings. One ex-bethellite used his connections to get into it too. the others are just dead even saluting them is dreary

  Answer from the "Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses"

  some of you might remember my situation....i have daed myself a while ago, and my father is the only jw in the family.

  since i am very close to him and the family, he has read everything related to shunning, he even asked elders and even them are not sure.

  so he wrote a big long letter to bethel to have an answer.

  Watchtower Properties Website

  by Apostanator in

  1. watchtower

  i was wondering if there is a website available that lists all of the properties the watchtower owns, as well as the current value of those properties?

  if not, what would it take to establish one?

  i think people would be very interested in what the watchtower holds as property or as businesses.

  can you just imagine what could happen if your worldly father was invited to a witness picnic?

  oh my god!

  perhaps an orgy would follow.

  Business is costly, they sure can't recover this from 3rd world countries?

  In my KH there was read a letter from society asking for service in unassigned territory

  the term 'removed my privileges'...

  by jaffacake in

  1. jw

  .

  and what other measures can be taken against a jw who does something the elders dissapprove of, short of disfellowshipping?.

  (this may sound like a dumb question but i was never a jw)

  If you are disfellowshipped and then reinstated, your privileges are still revoked until the elders deem it is time

  Disturbing paragraph in Dec 15, 2005 Watchtower

  2. bible

  in the 2nd study article, page 29, paragraph 17.

  "a similar shocking end will come to the symbolic harlot who has the name "babylon the grat.

  " the harlot represents the false religions of satan's world, which have their origin in the ancient city of babylon.

  Nathan Knorr and Bethel Life in the seventies

  by Boxed elder bugs in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  when i was at bethel in the 70's the president of the watchtower society nathan knorr was really unpopular among a lot of bethelites because he supported the four year oblligation for bethelites to stay at bethel and stay single for four years.

  i had heard that over nintey percent of the people who left bethel fell away from the jw religion afterwards, i was among that number, and i had heard that the majority of people who came to bethel did not keep there four year commitment but left in less than a year, i know the majority of people i started with lasted about a year at bethel, i was dumb enough to stay at bethel three and one half years.

  i guess it was because i was raised in the witnesses and didn't know what to do after i lost my faith in that religion while i was there.

  I know plenty of people who have been in:

  Covers of magazines (WT), Greatest man book, scene as Jesus, and youth book. Even 1 from a life experience in a WT from 2-6 months ago. These people are glorified, and they are no better than us.

  On the other hand I have done some demonstrations, and personal experiences at assemblies, andthe Circuit Overbeer embellishes all words. Some are even outright lies in the manner that the truth is stretched out to
