  Reddit thread about Bethel Reducing Headcount

  apparently, the downsizing is still happening and from what i read those let go are over 50!.

  sad because these people expected to be lifers.

  now they have to make their way in the world at an advanced age with no education or desirable skill!..

  LongHairGal - “Apparently, the downsizing is still happening…”

  Downsizing all across the board, really.

  A couple of those Redditors are seriously comparing it to a “controlled demolition”.

  Warwick sits on $70 billion?

  70,000 real estate properties at an average value of $100,000 and perhaps we can say (no one knows for sure) that warwick sits on $70 billion in real estate value.

  in the video (deleted by jwborg but available on the avoid.jw website) of the 2018-19 coordinators' committee report (english) shown to all congregations at the mid-week meeting, we find several curious and interesting indications:.

  - at minute 6.52 seconds you see some data .

  ThomasMore - “…Solving the national debt problem will eventually force the government to scrutinize pseudo-religions like WTC…”

  They’re actually a legitimate candidate for that kind of scrutiny, for many reasons including the one I mentioned, but another one we may not have thought of…

  …that the expense individual governments may be covering to provide care for those recovering from religious trauma could be viewed as a financial burden which is no longer sustainable.

  Imagine how much property tax the Org’d be on the hook for if they lost their charity-status.

  when i was a kid....i used to look at the wt illustrations of paradise conditions and would day dream about life in the new system....i later used this same technique (shame on me) to brain wash bible students.

  however...as i grew up lol (apparently!

  ) the illustrations changed....and became more modern.

  Seriously, though…

  … the moment I realized that the Org fully expected to - for all intents and purposes - rule the world forever after Armageddon and pattern society after their present-day ideology, I felt sick to my stomach…

  …and I was still in at the time.
