so if I've read this correctly they sold their property portfolio in Brooklyn for far less than they were worth? and had to keep long term freeholds because the properties were mortgaged?

by careful inan interesting link that notes how jw (and mormon) door-to-door evangelism has dropped off:.

the prospect of going to high school seemed ridiculous , the prospect of going out in the workplace preposterous, I grew up as not only a 1970's child but also the kid caught up in the fervour of their insanity, I'll be 51 next week, two marriages behind me, travelled the world and two wonderful kids.

2017 Sunday RC Final Talk & Comments About 1975
by baldeagle inmany of us here have commented on the deceitful friday afternoon video shown at the 2017 rc that discussed 1975.. the video attempted to shift the blame onto congregation members for the fiasco saying, "some were looking to a certain date as signifying the end of this old system of things.".
this same video mentions how, “a few even went so far as selling their homes and quitting their jobs.”.
we all know that the wt leadership created this teaching and endorsed it right up to its abject failure.. now below is the concluding talk given on sunday at the rc.

The GB members of the Watchtower Corporation are cunning decisive crooks
by Finkelstein ini think its now easy see the long standing and continuous operation of the watchtower corporation and its commercialized corruption as a religious publishing house.
the core centralized intent was to increase the circulation and distribution of the wts's own publications.
they exploited the basic belief in the bible as holy spiritual writings and used the end is near proclamation all throughout the 20th century and even back toward the end of the 19th century.. these leaders also devised special engaging public talks at assemblies and local kingdom halls which were also devised to support those specific core doctrines of christ's return and a imposing question of who's worthy of being saved or not at the soon to come day of judgment armageddon.
