Just got confirmation from a bethelite friend of mine. Jokingly said its alright as he already cooks and does his own laundry... (remote translation)
I predict some more wake ups from disgruntles after this
heard 4th-hand, but from a full-on believer, so not likely to be an "apostate lie":.
apparently, at bethel's morning worship this morning, it was announced that all worldwide wts construction is "suspended" for an indefinite time, except for the new world headquarters at warwick.. also, the "relocation" of remote translating teams is also suspended.. finally, there will be a "worldwide" reduction in bethel personnel.. all this came to me in a non-english language, and,as noted, 4th-hand.
so it is possible something may have been lost in translation and/or in the multiple steps between bethel morning worship & me.. but if true, it would be quite stunning.

a good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.
i just texted a very good remote worker friend, said i heard that there is a reduction in force coming at bethel and i hoped he wouldn't be affected.
.
he said its true, its not a rumor.

so how much would it take to bankrupt the watchtower organization, they're already having to bleed tens of millions to child abuse victims, how much more would it take to bring the society to it's knees, i know at one point they were going to sell off bethel.
i was feeling particularly hopeless about the whole jws being assholes thing and sick to death of pretending so ....
i rang my sister and told her that i no longer believe jws have the truth and the phone went silent, when i asked her to say something she just said if that was the case then she would have to hang up on me and then proceeded to indeed hang up..
so i texted her back immediately with fu..

beaucoup de gens ici sont considérés comme apostat par la religion des Témoins de Jéhovah. malgré que certains d'entre nous comme freemindfade sont beau et charmant!

another great article by trey.
hope it gets a lot of publicity!
I think its less about "praise" Steve2, and more about volume of information available to be found by those frustrated with their cult, who may come across something like this that could wake them up.
Don't forget you were once a witness too no? An honest person frustrated by the cult may not criticize this information in the same way you just have, but see the information contained in it that validates their doubts.
Also yes this recaps the ARC a bit, when I first started reading it I felt it was just a late article, but it does tie things together in a more global fashion, not separating the problem out by countries.
chill out
