Before or after

by oldflame in

i am curious because i was never baptised.

i know i was lied to before baptism but i was wondering if it got worse after being baptised.

i would like to know if things changed in doctrine or knowledge after you were baptised.

Longo Finally Speaks; Talks About Life as JW on Stand

by Swan in

this article was in the salem newspaper the statesman journal.

here is the link: http://news.statesmanjournal.com/article.cfm?i=59051

longo tells of money problems

blakky

I disagree strongly.

To blame the JW's for the murders Longo committed is bullshit. We all know the JW's do not stand for this type of thing.

This guy was not a JW when he killed his family. He was the an average joe from the streets who couldnt provide for his family.

Its his fault, and no one elses

AUSSIES: PLEASE READ THIS - Is JW accountant Australia's top tax fraud?

by ozziepost in

appearing in the current issue of australia's brw ("business review weekly") magazine is the cover story of the australian taxation office's cracking down on tax fraud.

two high fliers are singled out, a former assistant tax commisiioner and...... a cpa (public accountant) well known to jws in sydney.

because the practice is staffed and run by jws, some of them quite prominent in dub circles!.

Yeah i remember the sister. Her name was Anna, she was in Greek cong.. She was married to Corey form my cong. She died after giving birth. Blood Issue i assume. But i didnt know there was a stuff with the Blood liaison commitee.. Do tell??

I know a few of the ethnic groups/congs and english congs out that way. Were you from that way as well.

What are postings have there been from or on that cong?

nah, im not italian, if asain origin.

I grew up going to the bonnyrigg KH where there were upto 10 different congs sharing the hall. It was a massive complex though, had 3 large halls within.

Tim Brachmannis is the name you are looking for. He had a business employing 10 or so bro's and sis. Ripped off everyone under the moon. He was in Cabramatta cong, made money then went to the northern beaches. He was D'd in Mona vale cong i think.He was married to an american bird, and took off to america with her once the heat got to him. This was a good 6 to 7 yrs ago.

He was a smart man. Self made millionare, but got greedy. i remember - He ripped off a worldy guy who won the lotto. Got the bloke to invest $700k into business then took off with it. lol

His dad was an elder in my cong. He was a good man, very humble so forth. He and his wife moved up to QLD to escape the heat, and Tims bros went O/S.

Does anyone know any other Australian/Sydney/bethel scandals?

i know this guy, he was in my old cong. Italian bloke, never strong in the faith. Was inactive for about 10yrs, so i would nt call him a JW.

Apparently he is in jail now...he ripped off a lot of brothers in the circuit. He deserves what he gets.

Does a brother have to explain if he cuts his hair bald?

by JH in

jw
friends

we all know that having a beard or a goatee is wrong in the jw organization.

how about if a brother just decides to be bald, by choice?.

what do the elders say then?

blakky

i used to shave my head, and had it bald for 3 yrs. No elders said anything about. I went witnessing with it and all. My folk would give me hell for it saying it doesnt reflect to well on the family. But i did it anyway.
