despite everything, i still have a lingering admiration toward those who serve or have served in bethel.
it is not that i believe it is gods organization in any way, shape, or form.
Steve2 is spot on.
Bethelites are used to being like rock stars everywere they went they are treated like royality.
After they are moved on from bethel they will go to a congro somewere and be welcomed with open arms.
After a while they will just be a number in the congro and they have to get on with their life lie everyone else,The problem is they are not used to liveing like the rest of us,They have to budget to eat,power,phone,rent ect and most likley with little money behind them and if they are advanced in years little chance of getting a decent job.
After a while they will realize the dream of liveing at Bethell for the rest of their lifes was just that,They will become John and jane publisher like the rest of them.
Even if they are leaft out in the cold they will cling to whatever hope they can find...saddly for them it will not be at bethell like they thought.

anyone see that quote in the latest magazine?.
in full it says:.
"since the things are happening today that jesus told us about, we know that we are right at the very doorstep of the new world, the world to come.
It's just around the corner....of a round building.

i think it is comming in the future.
the evidence is piling up on the internet, assembly talks, letters to body of elders, and an increasing number of those being harmed by the cruel treatment and lies of the watchtower corporation that are clearly a form of malice.. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/malice.
1. a desire to harm others or to see others suffer; extreme ill will or spite.2.
There is the small problem of the 1st ammendment,it gets rite in your way.
Lets face it there are groups with way more wacky idears then the JW's that operate with the full protection of the 1st IE: the KKK,man boy love assosiation and several white supremacy groups .
Frankiespeakin its a nice idear but dont think it will get off the ground even the courts dont like getting involved in religious affairs.
