Welcome Gerry. Good you left that cult. Waist of time. I regret all those hours, months and years of full-time service and meetings and hassle with congregations. But it is never to late to start living.

No way a poor country could maintain their bethelites, missionaries, sp, co's and the maintenance of the buildings. For example, the construction costs of the dominican republic branch was a 200.000 us $ a month and took several years. Just because incomes in a country are low will not mean things are cheap.

They will need everybody in the Western countries, or do you think the countries that grow donate enough? No, Brooklyn has to send many millions a year to African and South-american countries.

GB did not pay medical bill for Bethelite they had sent to the Domincan Republic and got sick there; is right now fighting to stay alive.
My comment..........
BS. It is not the GB that pays dentist and medical bills of the missionaries (at the end yes) but the branch. I even paid them to fellow missionaries directly from the home funds as we were far out. Never had any problem nor comments. What a fake Messages.

Dunedain, were you in the Brooklyn Height congregation?
I was not talking about if they are right and righteous men, the only thing I noticed is that are so many opinions. I knew several of them, talken with them in the congregation and libraries. Even then I find it hard to have such a strong opinion about them as a group.
The one I really didn't like was Eric Beveridge, not of the GB but a writer, a British arrogant irritating man. Did like to show up without a tie at the breakfast table.

They will send this letter to the closest congregation where you live and the local elders will take care of you. How many times must this be said?????
Save you money on stamps and hand it over the local elders directly!

How can you be so sure what someone thinks without knowing him or speaking to him? And besides that, the GB is not one person but are several. So what one thinks might be different from the others thoughts. Seems obvious to me.
