as a bethel elder once said ... all the topics are copied from another source and they just add the concluding parragraph throwing in Jehovah's name. Now that is "fast (spiritual) food" to go. Yeah, to go out the trash!

Awake only published once a month but still pitifully poor!
by eyeslice inlooking through the latest copy of the awake that i got from my wife who has just got back from the meeting.
what strikes me is that although the awake is now only published monthly it is still the same old tired format.
'watching the world' still has the same pathetic cartoons, and the style and tone of the articles are just the same.

Governing body members pay
by snarf indoes anyone know what the governing body members make a month?
do they make more money than the average bethelite because of greater responsibility, or do they just get the benefits of first class travel when they go to different areas of the world?

Bethel Downsizing - Management Discussions
by core in.
the spin on downsizing is apparently "go out into the field" yet when the gb initially considered this it must have been presented as a practical problem - too much surplus hr capacity/ too expensive to maintain - or whatever and yet they turned it into a positive matter by stressing the return to the field - all those in such discussions are clearly able to deceive themselves as much as they try and deceive the "flock" - what do you think - did a discussion on a practical problem have to have a positive outcome and how did they twist their minds so as to sell it as such - for years they begged people to stay in bethel service (make it your home for life) and now they cast them out into the world with the thin veneer of "speedin g up the preaching work .. etc".
all those at the top must have been involved in turning this huge embarrasment (jehovah will provide etc) into a positive spin - they should try out for a marketing award "downsizing - the only way to grow!

of bethel, it was said that if it was not for the spiritual programs ie. Fam Watchtower Study, Morning Worship and other Special Programs that it was just another business/factory. go figure.

stevenyc - Thanks!!!
3 out of 5 youths on the cover have been replaced. I had to take a second look cause the 1st youth on the bottom front looks so similar to the previous one.
So the replacements have been for the girl on top middle and the bottom two people.
you gotta love it!!!

"Never Trust a Bethelite"
by drew sagan ini remember a long time ago hearing the phrase.
during my time as a witness i've known a few, and the amazing thing is that it really is quite true.
the two i really got to know both had problems, in fact they where much in the same personality wise.

i can see why people would say that .. i mean, a bethelite is to live up to the highest norms and is to be the most trustworthy since GB has entrusted them with taking the lead in kingdom services. so when one proves disloyal it is a big issue
