Yeah...I was laughing..then u scroll down to read this about the 'CANCELLED' kingdom hall loans ...not so funny...
So they weren’t cancelled at all. What happened was: the wt changed the terms of the loans. They no longer tell the congregations what their balance is, and the congregation no longer has a way to pay the loan off. They will just pay and pay and pay.

Is this sounding mafia-esque to anyone other than me?

Whatever Happened to the Remnant?

back in the 50's, when i was just a skinny kid, my father became po of a new congregation.

he'd only been baptised for around 4 years, so his rise was quite remarkable.just one of his flock in the new cachement area was of the "remnant".

this lady was well into her 60's, childless but married.

The old remnent appeared less narcessistic probably because they were effectively 'told', en masse, that they were. Prior to a certain date all witnesses were of the 144,000 hence the lot caught up in that didn't decide themselves they were anointed, thats what I reckon.

mother refuses blood to her baby and then runs away with baby in ghana.. the pressure to conform to jw.org in ghana must be extreme!.

meanwhile, the tarkwa divisional crime officer, superintendent augustine anyarah told adom news the parents are currently on bail.

Now THAT is when there will be 'new light' on the blood doctrine...when they start finding the wtbt$ culpable of manslaughter and sueing the board of directors...corporate manslaughter is already a crime in the uk.
I am raging right now.

Call up and watch them do nothing. If its legally the sisters money there is nothing to be done.
Also...do you KNOW that these "druggies"are indeed what you say they are or do you surmise it because of the way they dress/look.
Incidentally..beer is alcohol, alcohol is a drug.

Terry, I get all fired up about wtbts, and want to scream from the rooftops....until..comes along my 87 yr old diabetic, slightly confused neighbour (who knows nothing about my background )but lovingly comes around for a feed once a month and brings me the watchtower and awake.."oh its wonderful being a witness...you get to know EVERYTHING when you are a witness, the society took me to see the garden of eden..we saw this little pool, all thats left, yes!" . Actually she really has been to every continent bar the south pole with "the society" and it must be said its not bad for an immigrant seamstress from Jamaica who came over in the 50's, how many of her generation are so well travelled?I can barely list a country she hasn't been to (and has an anecdote about). Anyway, how do I tell one who has lost everyone in death including a beloved daughter, whose health is failing fast that its all claptrap??
I agree with you wholeheartedly...I could not begin to replace what I would take from her..really, what would be the point at this stage?

2. experiences
all i want from this life is to be able to wash windows at bethel.. my story.. when i was fresh out of high school and pioneering, i said those exact words to my friends and family.

all i wanted to do was be at the core of the organization where it was the safest.

i gleefully told people that i'd gladly spend the rest of my life washing windows, waiting tables, doing laundry or cleaning bathrooms.

Interesting that buddhist tradition is considered the source of the flower on the casket , it seems to me it is a very ancient universal homo sapien act of love and reverence for the departed.
