Just for the record a commercial company is doing the bulk if not all of the concrete work---footings, foundations. They have been on site probably more than a year. About 10 cranes most likly with operators earning big bucks. Tons of equipment from United Rentals. This is a hugh project. Projects also going on at Wat Farms. They can't spend their money fast enough.

Used to have a lot of our elder's meetings at Watchtower Farm because half our body were Bethelites. Now I'm driving home from work every day right past the Wat Farm in a rag top, top down weather permitting, wearing a hat with an American flag pattern on the brim. What a change. But I am not particularlly patriotic to the government but I am to the country if that makes any sense to you.

Your final WTF? Moment!
by restrangled init was a long time coming for me.....when i read about the extened generations, after being raised on1914 being the be all end all, and millions would never die....that was the end.
i was part of the 1975 fiasco, the 6 month only truth book studies, suffered through a disifellowshipping and their version of a rewind.
i finally am free and hope others can eventually look in instead of inside looking out!

My last meeting was in 2010, but sometime before that during a Sun morn Wat study about when we see a rock badger, gecko, or an ant we should be reminded of the same qualities these critters share with Jeh. It was about the most stupid tower study I ever heard. I was sitting there thinking that this is what I gave up a day off for, got dressed up, came to the meeting to hear this crap. If I looked at it before hand I would have skipped. Anyway I was not mentally in anymore, but that tower study really steepened the slippery slope I was sliding down. In 2010 one Sunday morning I woke up, decided I just wasn't going to do it anymore and went motorcycle riding. Never been back. That's the short story.

Growing up near Brooklyn Bethel never liked the layers of management and didn't think one full time bethelite should have such status over another, and they said Bethel was as close to paradise as you could get. For years I always figured it was my problem I just couldn't give it my all.

An Indictment against GOD , A blood sacrifice or a non blood sacrifice.Cain & Abel.
by smiddy ini would appreciate your thoughts on this question : why would the almighty god sacrifice one of his creations in blood letting to appease him ?.
does this make any sence at all ?
god is supposed to have created everything living , human and animals , and then he wants / expects a human to execute one of his creations as a sacrifice to him ?.

Smiddy, how are you? I've said in other posts if you believe the whole creation Adam Eve Cain Able.......Flood.......Jesus.......you would have to conclude that Jeh is bloodthirsty and in the beginning after A & E sinned Jeh must have somehow conveyed to them that he wanted blood. He must have taught Adam how to kill, Adam taught his sons and so it went. So maybe Cain thought he was really pleasing Jeh with the blood of his brother, a sacrifice greater than an animal. But you are right, livestock is what was valuable to Able (at that time in history what did he need herds for?) and produce from the fields was what was valuable to Cain. Jeh should have been pleased. But he wanted blood.
