i am not sure if this guy is really from bethel, or walkill, but if he is....this poor guy really tells it like it is from the heart.
he was surprised.. at the 'oh so fast, pack your bags, get your stuff outta here' layoff !.

Some years ago, a bunch of people were asked to leave and told to go into the FTW or abroad as missionaries, or whatever they were told, but they were asked to leave.They were not needed or wanted anymore. Many were there for many years. That same year, and almost every year after that if not every year, a bunch of new, mostly young Bethel B&S came in
So what the fuck constitutes a layoff in your book Fisherman??
ok, im gonna try makin this as short as i can, cuz im still pissed.. my father is elderly, needs me to drive him to meetings.
it takes 30 minutes to drive there, so i stay for the meeting, i dress in slacks and a nice shirt ..in respect for pops.
going back home , would be pissing in the wind.....i would just have to turn around 20 minutes after getting there.. well elders asked me to the back room, and said im doing a good job taking care of my father, and that it looks like im well on my way to getting reinstated soon....wtf???.
Haha that is funny. Leave it to them to ASSume that you want back into their little social club.
No, they cant reinstate you unless you write a letter and then meet with them. Next time he says something about it ask him where the Prodigal Son writes his letter for reinstatement. That should let him know the wavelength you are on.
he said she gave him a strange look.
i then explained to my son that her father has no degree and barely provides for his family.
he works like a fool, .
I know you are going through hell GTTM, but if you free your children you have done an amazing thing. Get them off to college, they will explore, feel, and love the people and experiences. They will see how there is nothing wrong with the world, and everything is wrong in JW land.
Best of luck to you and your family.

Aren't she and Venus unbaptized publishers???
They are basically untouchable as far as the local congo goes, can do what they want, say what they want, pose naked for the body issue of ESPN, and then give credit to Jebobo publicly for helping them serve aces at Wimbledon. Oh, and get puff pieces published for their amazing faith that they have yet to commit to 100%????
long before i woke up as a born in, this never, i mean never ever had any good explanation for me, or not even a bad one.
the jws seem to have an explanation for everything even if it is bat shit cray, but the logic to this i have never been given.
if you ask did god put satan there to test/tempt whatever adam and eve, the answer would be of course not!
interesting theory i thought on stephen lett.
if anything i would of thought tomo3 would of caused them more grief with his comments.. http://insidethewatchtower.com/governing-body/stephen-lett-dumped-from-governing-body/.
The article is pure speculation, but I for one hope this ass clown remains front and center for many years.
His condescending speaking manner makes him look like and idiot to anyone with three functioning brain cells. Dude obviously is drunk on his power and position, and talks down to his audience. Any business CEO who had this guy as a spokesman would shitcan him in a New York second after listening to him talk for five minutes. Fortunately the GB has no checks and balances in place to remove an imbecile like this, barring the ultimate crime, apostasy.
I've said it before, this guy is creating apostates every time he gets up on stage. I'm sure after every convention a handful of JWs walk out of there recognizing what an ass clown he is, and some of them end up researching their religion.
i said that i want to view the september 7,2011 and the may 6,2012 to all bodies of elders and fadingtruth sent a link but i could not find them.. so i just want someone from this forum to post these letters here without any link please..
Demanding much???
Its not a good idea to have certain things posted in their full format on the forum, the WTS loves to sue and cause problems for their so called enemies. I'm sure you can find what you are looking for if you do a little work.
the new testament specialist daniel wallace notes that although there are about 300,000 individual variations of the text of the new testament, this number is very misleading.
most of the differences are completely inconsequential--spelling errors, inverted phrases and the like.
a side by side comparison between the two main text families (the majority text and the modern critical text) shows agreement a full 98% of the time.[18].
why does the governing body depend on the helpers to write watchtower articles and the information in other publications?
why does the governing body not write these articles themselves?
they depend on the helpers to compose/write this information.
A few years ago they blustered about their editorial review process, something like 70 reviews of material before it goes to print. Its also been noted that at least three GB members sign off on material before it goes to print, I'm not sure if that was a WT quote or a report from someone on this board, I'll dig for it later.
Anyway, the point being there have been numerous errors and misquotes just over the last 7 years I've been on this board, so obviously the idiots are running the asylum up there.
breaking news from co!!
according to a reliable source, the co in my area says that jws may have been hearing the phrase, "final push" being used.
what sage advice did this shepherd, duke, and "star" of revelation have to say?
hearing the phrase, "final push" being used
Same as what my girlfriend says when we are just about done!
