....of course it's about control...but if fuel prices have risen so much, and it's going to take more petrol (therefore money) to get to KH etc, then that's LESS money in the contribution box...

meanness of the Gibbering Buddy
by hamsterbait inthe governing body, has seen fit to lovingly dump the separate book study.. on the grounds of fuel costs???.
the beth-hellites who have posted here showed how annointed brothers ripped them off for a gas contribution if they got a lift to the kingdumb hell.. gas is still a fraction of what it is in europe, but they didn't bother their sorry a$$es about how much a french or british fambly had to spend.. for decades they knew how pregnant africans waded through crocodile infested swamps - that was no reason to cancel either.. the "climax " book suggests that the clergy of christendom become concerned about world conditions because now their winecellars are threatened.. how different are the gibbering buddy - moving out of new york, not just because of fear after 9/11, but to make a disgusting profit on property bought with our money.. hb.

Gas my A$$
by writerpen inthey only reason they have put this big change on the cost of fuel is so that they can easily come back in a year or two - just when they think this wasn't such a good idea and they're losing even more control - and say that, "well, fuel isn't as expensive now, so let's start meeting again for the book study.

TURIN SHROUD/ Has anyone found a faith after leaving??
by chuckyy inhi.. ive recently been reading some really interesting stuff about the turin shroud, how it could be authentic after all, and the evidence that points to its authenticity.
of course, this gives me reason for thinking that "what if the gospels are true after all?
has anyone else here looked at the subject of the turin shroud??.

Hamsterbait, I posted my calculations on another thread...
Petrol prices here in England are extortionate...£1.15 (up to £1.30) per litre is maybe average....that's £5.23 per gallon...which is $10.38 per gallon.
I think they're pre-empting recovering the fuel costs in way of contributions.

You know what IP_SEC...I remember walking to the Memorial (with a young child in a pushchair) as no one would give me a lift (because I wasn't a regular attender)...I was very young, and lived over a mile from the KH, which was uphill from my house.

Hello Watchthem
We burn GAS just to put in hours so no one bugs us about low hours in the FS (with no results), money burned for nothing.
Yes...maybe that'll be next thing to go...''the preaching work is finished, please donate all money you would have spent on petrol/gas to the Society''....I think I'm on to something, lol.

I don't believe the Org cares about petrol prices...and one extra (short) journey a week is irrelevant...does this mean Field Service will be 'subsidised', as all Charities that I'M aware of (and I used to work for one), compensates their unpaid volunteers for petrol money....and the WT IS a 'charity'.
I agree with other posters...this is about control and 'subliminal messages'

What was your saddest day as a JW?
by jambon1 ini had many days like this but i will never forget the time that a 'prominent elder' publicaly declared that he wants to see the worldly people die at armaggeddon.
"i hope that i can look out the window & watch it all happening".
i went home and thought; 'wtf am i a part of here'?
