  Perhaps: The old ones are falling apart because of bad construction -Or - They are managing this as a real estate development project with the intent of flipping properties for a profit (with none of the profit trickling down to the local congregations).

  
  

  Bingo!

  "You are still married, and still happy ?"

  by Phizzy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i met an aging, well, late sixties, pioneer sister a few days back, from a congregation four removes away, and a different circuit to my old congo.

  i have known her since i was a kid.. i wasn't quite sure at first if she knew our "status" as we exchanged pleasantries, but it soon became clear she knew exactly our situation, that we walked away a few years ago.. she asked me about my views on life now, and listened respectfully, and said she appreciated my view, but a couple of questions that she threw at me, as in the thread title, showed that she was surprised that mrs phizzy and i had not gone off the rails after we left.. the mind control goes so very deep does it not ?

  she was surprised that our marriage hadn't failed, and that we were now happy.. i wonder if she will ever make the connection that the jw org has lied to her about those of us who leave ?.

  Left together and still very much in love. I do think the witnesses are surprised to see us still together, they always have been told how bad things turn out if you leave.

  
  

  Just like the leadership in North Korea tells their citizens bad things will happen if they defect to the south.

  Governing Body Helpers ----- Who are they? Are they future GB in the making?

  by adjusted knowledge in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so after nearly 15 to 19 years of not attending a convention, i can't recall exactly, i went to one last year.

  the brother giving the talk was from bethel and was introduced as a helper of the governing body.

  it was a title i never heard of before.

  I remember back in the 90s when they started the helper arrangement there was a lot of speculation that Armageddon was imminent because the helpers were other sheep and could run things on the earth when the gb went to heaven at the big A.

  It says " however, if your economic situation is such that you cannot afford to use any hotels listed, make whatever arrangements you feel are necessary for you and your family to attend and enjoy the convention.

  I ended up watching the whole part on education.  Brumley said after he went to college he became competitive and wouldn't recommend college to others.  

  Tight pants made the comment that bethel won't send anymore members to college to be lawyers.  

  He ended the rant by saying the best career is pioneering and that's what young Jws should do.

  Ok this gets weirder. He rants about no college then interviews brother Brumley who was sent by the watchtower to law school.

  Has anyone ever gotten disfellowshipped for going to University?

  by SonoftheTrinity in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses claim no one is disfellowshipped for pursuing higher education.

  somehow it seems there must be some halfwit sorry excuse for an elder somewhere who personally felt threatened by over educated young whippersnappers and decided to mark every nerd he could point his sweaty little finger with.

  While you are in university you may be shunned but as soon as you get the degree bethel will call you up to volunteer.
