What does the WTBTS really need expansion? Money...Fame....Power ?
by RULES & REGULATIONS ini purchase all my lawn and snow equipment from the same hardware store near my house.
thirty- five years ago, they employed only four people...a father and his three sons.
today, this same family owned company employs over 100 workers and operates five warehouses near a 50 mile radius full of lawn and snow equipment.

I purchase all my lawn and snow equipment from the same hardware store near my house. Thirty- five years ago, they employed only four people...a father and his three sons. Today, this same family owned company employs over 100 workers and operates five warehouses near a 50 mile radius full of lawn and snow equipment. They just keep on expanding.
I ask myself these questions every time I hear about another of their warehouse expansions :
Why does this lawn equipment company feel the need to expand? Don't they have enough money/revenue? Doesn't expansion cause more headaches, employee theft, injuries, lawsuits, and human resource problems? At what point will they be happy?
Now, I ask the same question about the WTBTS :
Doesn't the Society have enough money? Doesn't the expansion from a few thousand members (1870's ) to eight million ( today ) cause the Society more headaches, lawsuits, and human resource problems? Does power and notoriety over 8 million really feel that good? Now that the internet has caught up with you, do you have more sleepless nights?

Dear Mr. Anthony Morris,
I see that you made a brochure for me and all inactive Jehovah's Witnesses. I won't bother reading it because what you present and what is the truth are too far apart.
It gets really tiring to hear on the reasons/excuses why we have so many brothers/ sisters who become ''inactive ''. Please stop blaming us on why we become '' inactive ''. It is not because we are concerned about material wealth, lack of personal study, tiring out, attending college, work/career matters, our choice in music, who we marry/ who our friends are, not getting the position in the congregation, not spending enough hours in field service field service hours, and many, many more reasons your organization have come up with.
I spent forty years of my life in your organization. Spent countless hours in field service, personal study and weekly meetings. Materialistic.... I never was. All my friends were either family or Jehovah's Witnesses. I was never disappointed that I was never chosen as a Ministerial Servant. Smoking / drinking or looking for another partner was not/ is something I participated in.
I DID become '' SPIRITUALLY WEAK '' after forty years watching your Organization lie to me. I did tire out from all your false beliefs,doctrines and practices.
Next time,can the SOCIETY print a more truthful brochure titled, ''The Real Reasons Why We Have So Many INACTIVE''?

Alfred is 100 % right ! Google Maps does show tennis courts and a basketball court on the property. The picture Alfred shows speaks volumes on what the Society thinks of themselves and what they think of the brothers and sisters in Haiti.
I was on a cruise last year and the cruise ship made a stop in Labadee,Haiti. It was a beach area for the cruise line. Looking at the town of Labadee, it had homes with sheet metal roofs,homes no larger than a two car garage,hilly with bad dirt roads,smoking hot all year long and I'm sure that 99.9% of all the homes have no air-conditioning.
While all the Warwick faithful enjoy their air-conditioned rooms, offices, and maybe play a little tennis and a game of basketball, the last thing in their minds is the people of Haiti.

Finkelstein said:
The JWS religion is an organized and enforced agreement to set of lies or from a biblical viewpoint a seller of a tainted commercialized Gospel.Just like Coca-Cola sells soda, the Rolling Stones sell compact discs, the New York Yankees sell t-shirts and baseball hats...the Watchtower Society sell Bibles,books,and magazines.

“Yes, the end of this system is so very near! Is that no reason to increase our activity?… Reports are heard of brothers selling their homes and property and planning to finish out the rest of their days in this old system in the pioneer service. Certainly this is a fine way to spend the short time remaining before the wicked world’s end.”—Kingdom Ministry, May 1974, p. 3
I was baptized in 1974 at a young age of 13 years. The fear that was instilled in me through the talks and magazines was that 1975 might be the end of the old system of things. Brothers who owned businesses sold them to go into the full time ministry. There was a panic mode to pioneer and look spiritual. The talks were how take advantage of the time remaining.
Here we are in 2017 ( 43 years later ), the Watchtower Society build this enormous facility out in the boondocks at the expense of the all Witnesses who truly believed that the system of things was close. Countless money and time has been spent from every Witness from the late 1870's - 2017. While the Faithful and Discreet Slave keep promising that the end is near, life will continue in the same vain ( slaving with no benefits or results ) for all Jehovah's Witnesses who serve today and in the future!

I can't wait till 2017 comes to an end. Here are s few things that have happened to my family and I:
My Jehovah's Witnesses mom died in the beginning of the year. She was anemic and refused taking blood. I was not happy with her decisions but she was an adult and chose that route. I told her Doctor that she was so convinced of her faith that nothing would change her mind.
My father was thrown out of the house due to making death threats against my mom while they lived together. Haven't seen him for over a year. He blames my brother and I for throwing him out of the house. He now lives with a close family member.
My roof on my house was damaged from rain/wind storms. My insurance refuses to pay for full roof replacement. Been fighting insurance back and forth for 3 months.
Have herniated disc problems. I am self employed/one man crew landscaper. Have no choice but to work and suffer pain.
Had my gallbladder removed and a hernia repair a month ago. Closed my business for 3 weeks with no income and customers dropping my service because they have no loyalty to anyone. Thankfully, my wife works and have her income to pay the bills.
I owe my brother funeral expenses. He paid for wake/funeral and burial. I don't know when I will pay him. Good thing is that he is not bothering me for the money.
HOW HAS YOUR 2017 BEEN?
