Search up Menlo park congregation.
There was also another one who did the same. Can’t remember the name but if I find it I’ll let u know Mike.
edit Texas yes, but wasn’t there one in New Mexico too or am I mistaken?
so back when the borganization took over the congregations and their money when "forgiving" the loans for the mortgages, i seem to remember there was a congregation that stood up to them.
it didn't work, of course, but they caused quite a stir.
does anyone remember what congregation it was or any details where i could search and find more about it on here?

had to look.
first paragraph mentions that most of were probably born after 1914. most?
i bet the dubs 105 and older can be counted on your fingers..
Where you born after the year 2014 would be more reasonable. Quite a few kids born in that year would be able to make out a few words in that nutty sentence, and certainly know the numbers!
at one assembly(tm), i was asked to relate an 'experience(tm)' which i did.
however, during rehearsals, the geezer in charge elder or co or some such title, told me that i shouldn't tell it the way it was.
i did a 're-enactment(tm)' with another 'brother(tm)'.
How many have heard about the kid being saved from a snake ( lion, car) because he always obeys dad?
🤣😂Not sure where you live, but not around these parts we don’t hear ‘em like that!!
Ive had to do this on 3 different occasions.
If this happens so often to so many people, Most Elders and all C.O.s must know about these lies.
So why the heck do so many Elders and C.Os, then, remain in the Org?
They MUST know it’s all B.S. if lying at assemblies is this routine.
It’s this sort of thing that convinces me the higher ups absolutely know it’s BS. Either that or they have to believe Jehovah has deserted them.
two requests we received for:.

elderly sister looking in her refrigerator with almost nothing to eat, yet still contributes to contribution box.. .
That picture of the elderly widow also made me furious.
They totally twisted Jesus’ story of the “Widows mite”. The point that Jesus was making was to shame the rich priests who blew their own trumpet...not to encourage the poor to donate more!!
Jesus kept a poor box. Whatever you believe, that much is almost certainly true. Where is Watchtower’s poor box that they may contribute to the poor??????
I like my brothers.
The Wicked Fornicator of the Back Room!!
I bet there’s been a fair few of those over the years!!!
The marked DEMONIC overseer of the new world.
(sounds better with your middle name too)
here is a man named jerry.
on a public sidewalk, he asks attendees leaving a jehovah's witness convention in san diego a simple question, ''do jehovah's witnesses have the truth.
not one person acknowledges him.
Th0se Witnesses exiting the convention are typically robotic....just like lemmings they do whatever they see the witnesses in front do.
If the ones in front walk by...they walk by. If the ones in front had talked to him....the ones following would have also talked to him!!!
Anna Marina you really do think outside the box! Good idea!
anyone heard of vera de saint croix?
if fred franz had got married she would have been the one he would have married.
she wasn't his girlfriend but she was a very special lady to him.. that's all i know.
I was just going to say Waton!!’ what a name for the girlfriend of basically the co~ creator of the modernJehovah’s witnesses!!! Anna Marina You’re a hive of unusual information! Do tell more!
I wonder if he didn’t marry her because of her name! You know how superstitious JWs are, ironic I know.Very posh! Bit like Bouvier ( Marge of course!)!!
Personally, I always assumed he was gay.....
i don't know what i am talking about... read this post at your peril.
back in the 1960s there was, seemingly, a brief period of relaxation in authoritarianism among jehovah's witnesses.
those who have read raymond franz's 'crisis of conscience' will have heard the story about dan sydlik's remark about the need to 'open some windows to let some air in here'.
ding dong the witch is dead...
which old witch?
The wicked witch.....
and when the elders come acalling you can say:
"You have no power here, be gone with you; before someone drops a house on you too..."
we brits are being bombarded with facts and speculation about the horrific consequences of either corbin or johnson getting into power .
another thread has discussed the anti-semitic leanings ( or not ) of corbin .
what do people think about the left's claims that boris would sell off the nhs ,only this morning l saw a post on fb saying that " america is demanding full access to nhs records " it has been pointed out by a political reporter on the bbc that the talks that the papers were leaked about happened before johnson became pm and these were just things that have been put on the negotiating table by the usa .
The Left's Jewish Problem - Jeremy Corbyn, Israel and Anti-Semitism by Dave Rich. If you have the slightest doubt about the reality of the left's hatred for Jews and Corbyn's complicity you need to read it too.
Oh give me a break. Corbyn is for the under dog in this situation, as are the left in most situation.
The left of his generation have fought against right wing racism all their lives. It’s cobblers to say they are anti Semitic just because they are anti Israeli policy.
