Ironic hypocrisy of Bethel "service"

by MinisterAmos in

jw

i normally let people make their own decisions with a very hands off approach, but after reading the "living together in bethel" (or whatever the name of the piece of crap book is) i need to vent a bit.. anyone here is very familiar with the "quit your job or at least cut way back" talks that we were subjected to seemingly every other week.

after all, good dubz need time to prepare, attend, pioneer etc.

a good friend of mine left her job at an insurance co. to pioneer.

Perhaps it is the "Dwelling Together in Unity" book issued to Bethel workers.

Thank you. I may have my copy from the early 1980s.... I will look perhaps this weekend.

Survey/Psych Paper Results

by deneranys in

thank you to everyone who participated in my jw adolescent survey for my developmental psychology term paper!

several were interested in how it turned out, so here are some of the findings from the survey.

from those that responded, fewer jw adolescents (about half as much) took illegal drugs and had sex than the average teen.

I'd be interested in reading your paper as well.

Thank you.

Thank you.

does any one have any information on him?

someone told me he died?

what of his wife gloria?.

JW_Researcher

thank you for the suggestions and encouragement.

there is no "project" .... just a one-time close friend who, evidently, passed.

i redraw my request for your assitance.

thanks again.

a good suggestion. i have not tried that. thank you.

my guess is they will not release information of such a personal nature plus he was a "quasi-bethelite."

thank you for the suggestion, though.

i would be more than happy to scan and post current kms to reexamine.org.. problem is that i don't receive the km.

if someone snail mailed me a photocopy each month i would scan and post it for all.. pm me if this is possible.. some who receive the km have "fear" of the wtbts (not necessarily unwarranted).. i have no such fear or concern.

so folks csapturing my ip address, etc....is of no concern.. thank you.
