  There was one long timer at Brooklyn Bethel years ago, not a partaker I think. His wife died, he went into serious depression and very sadly committed suicide there at Bethel.

  The person you are thinking of is Richard Wheelock.

  During my tenure there, yes. In March of '75 there was a number of guys expelled for gay activity. One of the guys came in the same day I did and was one of the first I met there. He set off a few red flags when I met. Knorr gave one of his infamous lectures during breakfast on that.

  While there husband of couple 1 ran off with wife of couple 2. That was quite shocker to many people due to who the couples were.

  And wife of a couple doing a single guy. I used to work with her brother. She was pretty hot looking and her husband was somewhat of a loser, imho, so I wasn't to surprised.

  And there were a few other instances there.

  ex-gf and I had sex almost every morning in shower...sex and coffee, the perfect way to start most mornings.

  I remember one woman, a one-niter, she stated after our shower adventure that was her first time of sex in the shower...and she had been married for twenty years. How sad I thought. She should have dumped that guy a lot sooner. From that one nite she was certainly making up for lost time though...woohoo...

  Eight or nine, not exactly sure. Even less sure which one has my publisher record card. Guess that means a successful fade.....

  LaidOff Bethelites: Weeping And Gnashing of Teeth

  by metatron in

  don't let any of the watchtower's propaganda deceive you.

  i encountered some private conversations among witnesses about the subject and it's ugly.

  yes, there is suffering as many of these victims try to live on charity and can't find jobs in the worst economy since the depression.. some of their private observations include shock that you need a college degree for nearly any job and that the watchtower society couldn't have picked a worse time to do this to them .. all the while these complaints are discussed, i try not to show that i am astounded by their bizarre "logic".

  Thank God I left when I did and got my degree(s). Maintaining that cynical attitude while at Bethel kept my perspective in check and on the edge. If I had stayed I suspect I would have been let go and so screwed trying to survive and adjust....

  While I was at Bethel a friend of mind wanted to see an "R" rated movie that was palying at the local theatre. He figured it would be safe to go on Monday night as that was the Bethel family Watchtower study. So he goes to the theatre, gets the ticket and is told, "sure is a lot of you guys here tonight". He was rather surprised as the place was packed with Bethelites.
