  Anyone else an Ex Bethel "volunteer"

  by BackseatDevil in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was wondering if there were any other ex-bethelites on here.

  i personally regularly went for temporary work at brooklyn then was assigned to the farm for a year and a half.

  it was... one of the most bizaare experiences of my life.. so i wrote it all down (finally, after some 15 years) so i won't bore anyone on here with the details of the story - because bethel doesn't show up until chapter 15... and for you straight folks, it gets a bit gay in two places... but nothing gross.

  Naw but I can imagine!

  Its sad that the best barbers for me were the white sisters in the barbershop (another bullshit aspect of bethel placing white sisters in the barbershop to cut black mens hair and they have NEVER WORKED IN A BARBERSHOP?!?)

  GAWD I am glad to be out of that ass backwards high control group!!!

  Um dude your story is brilliant!

  These two really capture bethel life:

  He is surrounded by young men in their prime, separated at the height of their final development and secluded into a ‘Branch Davidian'-type complex to do nothing but work in their place, smile for the tours, and forget about the spinning globe around them that is speeding by while they create magazines and books that are suppose to relate to the problems and concerns of the common man with common problems and offer a solution for the wicked world they have no connection with.

  Because we get our cut by a professional. Yeah, who didn't come here twenty years ago as an electrical engineer and then thrown into the barber shop as his assignment and butchered everyone's hair until he perfected the art of clippers.

  I actually got called to the carpet becauser of a fucked up hair cut.

  From your story:

  The brother was neurotic and OCD about the usage of his equipment, and fully admitted to going through all of James's belonging while he was at housekeeping duty just to make sure James was "cool".

  I swear I believe my 1st roomate at Brk did this shit to me! If I ever see that lil stunted Jawa again there's gonna be a mis-understanding!

  I just want a divorce!

  2. relationships

  hi there, this is my first post, but i've been buzzing around this site for years.. i got married at 18, hubby was 20, i was a regular pioneer and we were talking about serving in bethel.

  fast forward - i left in 2004 after a 5 year battle with my conscience, family and friends who kept insisting that i was just "weak and needed to have another bible study".

  however hubby and i stayed together although it was kinda on the understanding that we would just not talk about it.

  Welcome!

  Now to cut to the chase why do you want a divorce?

  If you want to see other people or even have someone in mind I would suggest that you just let the new relationship grow. In time you will find hubby will come around.'

  anything else:

  I completely agree with Data-dogs thoughts on this

  Evolution is Crap, there I said it!

  by Crazyguy in

  2. friends

  ok i started another thread and every one jumped on me because i was trying to take the theory of evolution out of the mix and most here seem to believe in it so i will just say it.

  the theory of major evolution is crap!

  the theory is falling apart.

  Public Talks all MANUSCRIPT now???

  by hamsterbait in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  on another thread gingerbread said (ouch - the poetry is not deliberate!

  ) that all sunday public talks are now manuscript.. is this why the brothers have been doing babble readings without adding any comment?

  so they can just regurgitate words convincingly whether they understand or not??.

  Funny how you forget things.

  Lets look at the timeline here. We know that 9/11 scared the GB/lawyers shitless. They immediately began plans to get out of brooklyn. I was looking at the PDFs of plans here and by 2005 they had picked out this real estate and began the process of making their escape from Brooklyn a reality.

  We are talking about an almost 20 yr project taken up on the eve of the toes of the end of this system of things.

  So while they continue to admonish the R&F not to put their trust in money, jobs, earthly things or to plan for a future in THIS system of things, they are DOING THE VERY THING THEY PREACH AGAINST?!?
