jerry bergman has taught biology, genetics, chemistry, biochemistry, anthropology, geology, and microbiology at northwest state college in archbold oh for over 25 years.
He claims that in his bio that I linked to at the end of the OP
I did scan the 23 page (13,431 word) ‘biography’ before I posted. Since it is somewhat chronological, I looked in the approximate area I thought it’d be mentioned. I also did a few word searches … all to no avail.
It is a tough read. The chest-pumping is enough to make Lloyd Evans appear humble and meek. Yikes!

The headline for the original post reads, in part, "WT Writer."
Do you have any support for that?
Please and thank you.
He also published a few issue of the "JW Research Journal."

RIP Minimus.
Although I live close to Minimus, we never met in person. My loss.
On the 'broadcast' shared in the original post, Rick Fearon was going to share more information about Minimus once he secured permission from the family. Did that happen?
No obituary or anything?
so in the latest leaked video, splane goes on this crazy delusional rant about how faithful witnesses should never research their faith.. he criticizes the worldly court system and says they are not fair toward witnesses and the organization.
he says the court system is rigged and witnesses who get convicted, (implied child sex abusers) are innocent.
he is literally trying to justify child molesters and elders who cover them, as good people in "god's eyes" even though "human authorities" may judge them and put them in jail.
"What "leaked video" is that? There's nothing new by Splane on the JW.Borg broadcasting site."
Yeah... can't locate it either. Any assistance appreciated.
Hopefully it is available other than on Lloyd Evans' channel. I've tried to watch him. I have a fairly decent tolerance level for ALL sorts but ....he is simply insufferable.
Pompous buffoon of which there are many but....his flavor is simply insufferable. I'm sure the lack is mine. He's probably brilliant.

see this video at 2:58. sanity4sweden explains that 'cult expert' steve hassan was on cnn giving advice on how to deprogram trump supporters.. https://www.bitchute.com/video/3plguubdsjs/.
so this must be political correctness on steroids.. i have occasionally heard the name steve hassan mentioned in relation to the watchtower.
but even watchtower helps people to escape cults.

Do you have a source, please?
howdy everyone!
before i am accused of anything, i only came in here to fulfill a promise i made a couple of years ago.
this place keeps getting crazier.. i have a copy of a book that was given to me by a member of this group for free.
The book is "Signs of the Last Days. When?" by Carl Olof Jonsson.
There is a PDF (and other formats) available (free) here:
i was wondering if there are any other former bethelites who worked in this complex during the late 80s and 90s who are on this board.
i am asking because it appears this specific set of people seemed to have or experience the worst aspects of that hell hole and i wanted to see if there are any others.
Left in 1985 but worked in #30, primarily....window crew.

Thank you Petra! for sharing.
do you think it’s a good idea?.
Today's "The New Paper" email had this:
Extra: The cities of Camden, NJ and Compton, CA disbanded their police forces in 2012 and 2000, respectively, instead opting for county-wide police departments.
Interesting background, although not extensive.
IMO, local is probably better but perhaps a "regional" approach would dilute individual pockets of 'troublesome' police attitudes?
There certainly is room for improvement but ... we also have to accept that some cops are idiots (like some teachers, some elders, some parents, etc.) and always will be. Training, psychological evaluations, etc. won't eliminate them all.
It's a tough job under the best of circumstances. It is surprising that cops stay so professional 99% of the time.
