  Speculation ( not theory ) on child abuse inquiries.

  by DATA-DOG in

  most of you, like me, keep yourself informed as to what's happening in jw-land.

  like me, you make it your business to know what's going on.

  so i'm wondering why the wtbts is allowing eldubs to appear in these inquiries in australia??

  How strange that God's organisation needs tob eg for money

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i would say that if god or jehovah or any other named or nameless god needs money then he/she/it is not much of a god.

  as a poor jw pioneer i scraped by as a way of life serving a god i could not know, see or sense in any way but i swallowed the biblical dogma and recalled that the birds of the air neither toiled nor sowed but were provided for.. so for goodness sake...why is the jw org so concerned with keeping, promoting or downright snatching as much money as they can from the sheep?.

  is it a sign that jehovah has disinherited them?

  What really pissed me off about this article was the part about anxiety. They basically said don't be anxious.

  Hello! Anxiety is a major disorder that may need medical treatment.

  Were you out in field service on coffee break? lol

  yea Tim's sucks but they have figured out a way to maintain a cult following.

  A guy I work with says they put crack in their coffee to get people addicted.

  years ago there was a thread about rumors that society was paying into a retirement fund for circuit overseers.

  could any recent ex-bethelite confirm or deny.

  here is the old thread:.

  One co I know worked wages for about 15 years before he was a co. He had a pension plan. The branch made him sign his pension over to them when he became a co.

  Whatever Happened to the Remnant?

  2. friends

  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 whole two-class distinction was a creation of Rutherford.

  
  
  Rutherfraud couldn't grow his business religion anymore so he had to change the rules.
