Just to put the story straight. Knorr and others on the board of directors recieved their cars (Buicks) from the Domtar paper company. The publications were printed on mostly Domtar paper. So to reward the purchase of such large orders the paper company would provide perks and cars were one of them. This was the way it was in the 1970's when I was in Bethel. I know this for a fact.

Brother Knorr's Cadillac and other secret perks
by tim hooper inback when i was a wee lad, my dad told me that the brothers in brooklyn had voted to purchase a cadillac motor car for the sole use of the then president, nathan h knorr.
he'd got this information from the london bethel, him being a chum of the then branch overseer, pryce hughes and his pal ron drage.
religious leaders of non-profit sects are supposed to take a vow of poverty!.

Just remember, once you bug out you are now a refuge! Where to? Food? Water? how long? The WTBTS is playing on the dubs
ignorance and using fear tactics.

The Double Life Of A Jehovah's Witness
by minimus inmany jws are hypocrites.
they lie, cheat, swear, get drunk, fool around, etc..... just because someone is a pioneer, or a ministerial servant or an elder--- it means nothing.
some of the "finest examples", are two faced "christians"..

Try this: When the elders come over just start crying (with tears) saying you have been deprogramed and you don't know what to do! See the looks on their faces

Just spent the last weekend listening to the program and fortunatly I'm not programable. Anyway I had to listen to two members of the GB. It was very interesting to listen now with the aid of technology and the BIG screens. It gave me more insite as to the BS that the GB is handing out. When ever you are talking to someone or they are talking to you the facial expressions are of real importance. Seeing these expressions of the speakers was not possible until now. Bro lett was following mostly a scrip and the only thing I could observe were his eye brows going high on his forhead and then very low (all this on a 16ft x 20 screen). So much that I started to get dizzy. Thank goodness for the arm rest on the seats. The next member of the GB was Bro Morris. I must say he had a more conversational quality than anyone else I have listened to. This would be of great value as I could read his body english, tone of his voice along with facial expressions. You could see that he was BS'g and knew it. Example: he would talk in a very conversational way with cander while looking at the camera but when mentioning "time of the end", or doctrine things he would look at the outline and would not make eye contact with audience. This is very common when soneone is knowingly BS'g.
