  My conversation with the "Fixer" attorney for Pentecostal TV evangelists

  by TerryWalstrom in

  i had occasion to chat with a man who was the attorney for a large cabal (all related by blood) of pentecostal tv evangelists.

  how it came about was as follows.i was finishing my first book about my stint in prison as a jw (i wept by the rivers of babylon)and a man in a suit walked over and asked me what i was working on.he said he'd seen me every day and got curious.i told him.he jumped at the chance to unburden at that point.in the course of our conversation, he opened my eyes to a great many things, not the least of which was the poisonous inevitability of larceny which comes with being a spokesman for god's 'truth.

  'he described the process.

  He told me about Robert Tilton, a local TV evangelist who had been taken down by an investigative report. Tilton had owned so many satellites used for TV ministry, NBC leased some of them for their broadcasts. His ministry required one million dollars per day just to break even! The hardest part of being Tilton's attorney was finding ways to hide all the cash.

  As long as Tilton keeps me laughing on YouTube,where's he known as the farting preacher, I don't care what he does, he doing the same as all the other bogus evangelists and the GB now with their videos they're showing at the meetings now.

  the thing that stands out about this story is and i italicized below is, the jw said he had a permit, which i really, really, really, have a strong feeling that this is the biggest lie told on the planet, dubs just set those damn carts down wherever they please, step back about five feet from them and start looking at their phones are gossiping with their pioneer partner about everyone else in the cong while getting their hours in.. man's best friend also proved to be his best accomplice in the case of a marathon man and his french bulldog butterbean.edgar wallis jones, 59, was walking his dog on sombrero beach feb. 6 at 11:30 a.m. jones approached a jehovah's witness who had a cart filled with religious literature set up near a pavilion.he told the man that he was not allowed on city or state property with religious books.

  the victim responded that he had a permit and that they were free.jones said if the literature was free, he would take all of it.

  he grabbed the cart while butterbean began chewing on some of the books.

  Man's best friend also proved to be his best accomplice in the case of a Marathon man and his French bulldog Butterbean.
  Edgar Wallis Jones, 59, was walking his dog on Sombrero Beach Feb. 6 at 11:30 a.m. Jones approached a Jehovah's Witness who had a cart filled with religious literature set up near a pavilion.
  He told the man that he was not allowed on city or state property with religious books. The victim responded that he had a permit and that they were free.
  Jones said if the literature was free, he would take all of it. He grabbed the cart while Butterbean began chewing on some of the books.
  The victim called 9-1-1 and gave Deputy Ian Douthirt a description of the man and his dog. He said he had seen the man around town before and believed he was a local.
  The deputy canvassed the beach, and several witnesses said they saw a man who matched the suspect's description and a dog who matched the bulldog's description. The dog was described as a tan and white, older and chubby French bulldog. One witness said the suspect told him his dog's name is Butterbean but that he didn't choose it; children chose the dog's name.
  Deputy Douthirt's subsequent search of several animal hospitals and shelters turned up one with a file for a French bulldog named Butterbean, but they would not provide additional information given that the incident did not directly involve Butterbean.
  The Monroe County Sheriff's Office posted a description of Butterbean to its Facebook page in the hopes of identifying the bulldog's owner.
  Deputy Douthirt returned to the scene of the crime on Feb. 11, and his search was quickly over. He passed by the pavilion where the victim had been standing when he heard a dog bark. A tan and white French bulldog was walking with its owner, a man matching the suspect's description who then repeated the story of Butterbean's name to the deputy.
  The deputy mentioned his investigation into an incident on the beach, and Jones admitted to talking to the Jehovah's Witness about the legality of his literature cart. He denied taking the cart, but he readily admitted that Butterbean chewed on some of the religious books.
  The victim later identified Jones in a photo lineup, and a judge issued a warrant for Jones' arrest on Feb. 20.
  Jones turned himself in on Monday. He was charged with disorderly conduct.
  Butterbean was not charged in the incident. Deputy Douthirt reported Butterbean remains in good health, spirits and in the care of Jones.

  yesterday, robert kraft, the owner of the new england patriots, got busted for getting a massage and more.

  they say there is another more high profile person who also got busted.. does this stuff upset you that some men have gone into a massage parlor for possibly more than a massage?

  Frozen - do you have a sense of humor? You really haven't heard anyone say "you two ladies" are you girls" when referring to two men before?

  Frozen, I don’t get why billionaires would go to a strip mall for a rub and tug either

  To Frozen and Min - I bet if you two girls won a jackpot lottery with such an excess amount in your bank account, you would be paying for things that you thought were silly that other folks paid for , just like the ol' rub and tug at the local mall.

  Yeah, thanks, I had no idea that massge parlir meant massage parlor, although all the other comments responding to you somehow managed to spell it right and they all have massage parlor in them, but, I had no clue whatsoever as to what you meant, thanks for the clarification Min

  Society Ditches Older Publications

  by new boy in

  it has been reported that many of the older publications are being dumped.

  the watchtower bible and truck society have a long list of books, pamphlets and brochures that are no longer available either in print or in their data base on their web sight.

  of course the reason is that this books have a lot of old information that is incorrect, false prophecies, flip flops and a lot of "new light" that became old light.

  So the bound volumes are being tossed out too?

  As FedUpJW said above they're hiding the lie.

  You would think that would wake folks up about just what kind of religion is this, but probably won't do a thing.

  Shall we go back to calling people by their slave names because that’s what they were once called? That would be racist.

  Well, considering that the original slaves and their grandchildren, dare I include their great-grandchildren, but they're might be a few ones left, but, we can't go back to calling people by their slave names Minimus, because the folks that had those names are . . . . . DEAD !!!! You come up with the most inane things to prove your not the "R" word, kinda reminds me of Archie Bunker and I still enjoy watching those reruns! And like I said yesterday do your research on your Lord & Savior Drumpf, find out what his great great grand dads name was
