He never talks about one single specific aspect of what happened, that was a little disappointing. Also he is clearly still mentally on the fence about how evil (or not) the WT religion is.

Jason Cobb's new podcast explaining Menlo Park scandal
by Rufus T. Firefly inhttps://soundcloud.com/jtv-16/jtv-podcast-ep1.
this podcast is very interesting, especially the latter half.
in a nutshell, the scheme is this: after determining that a complete kingdom hall remodel will cost the congregation $100,000.00, the regional building committee arbitrarily inflates the estimate to $250,000.00, fleecing the congregation and misappropriating the additional funds for other purposes.

A Unique Web Site: JWlove.org
by Londo111 inwell, all parodying of the january 2014 awake aside: no, not so unique.
unlike the claims of jw.org, it is not the one true website that will solve all your problems.
in fact, jwlove.org will not be for everyone and i admit that there are likely other places where the same information is presented in a better, more comprehensive manner.

Has the Governing Body Become More or Less Authoritarian in Recent Years?
by cofty init seems to me that this is a no-brainer but i have been out since '96.. so based on your personal experiences what do you think?.
lots more - a bit more - just the same as always - less - a lot less?.
if you think more or lots more can you spot a time or event when it started to change?.

GB 2.0 is waaaaaaay more hardcore and strict. It's their way of keeping their thumb in the dam.

Story of a GB ass-kisser
by zound ini was reading a life story article in the latest watchtower and had a few thoughts about it i thought i'd share here.
these life story things are always so depressing to me - this one is slightly interesting because it is told by a current "governing body helper".. it's called "full time ministry - where it has led me.
" reading it i just got the impression that this guy (robert) was aiming to be a gb member but fell short and ended up being a gb "helper".

Great job disassembling the article and reading between the lines. It very much rings true.
When I was at Brooklyn HQ I saw plenty of ass kissing and those were the guys that always ended up with the best jobs and their faces in the magazines.

Since absolutely nothing good has ever been accomplished by any sites critical of WT they should all just go away... yeah that will help everyone a lot....
Keep up the good work negative crusaders for nothing! Another "worthless" site exposing WT flaws and errors has bitten the dust thanks to your lack of effort or support!

New book - "Journey to Gods House" by Brock Talon
by AnnOMaly inthis thread's in tandem with clarity's started here in the members only section.. remember the jwn poster livingthedream from 2 years ago?
his threads often had me in stitches and he had a real knack of hooking you into the story so that you kept reading.
who of us could forget the account of the booming voice of 'god' ordering a double chocolate chip ice cream?

New development in my life
by EdenOne inno longer a ms ........................... can't give details atm, for it might be a dead-giveaway and it ain't quite over yet.
but, it really taught me one thing: if you're trying to fade or stay in, trust no one.
and i mean no one.. eden.

Thanks for the update Eden- you are on track and God has big plans for you bro. You are one step closer to being out. It was a huge relief when I stepped down and got them off my back, it made my fade a lot easier.
Of course in the end my best friend ratted me out anyway at the urging of my uber-elder father in law.
