  We ( a bunch of guys from Surinam and I ) went in a Cold and rainy wintermonth in one of the guys Toyota Celica and bought a lot of Nasi Goreng, Sateh, chicken and three sixpacks of Heineken at a Chinese take away. We tried to eat it in the Celica but it went into a big mess, all the shirts and trousers full of stains and we stank of alcohol the whole afternoon at the CA.

  Is this a normal JW practice? Warning, this will be a bit graphic.

  this post may be disturbing and i apologize, but i'm just trying to find out if this is a practice the jw teaches.

  i was taken advantage of by a guy claiming to be a jw preacher.

  he took me to his house supposedly so i could give his daughter piano lessons, and then he basically forced himself on me while telling me he was in love with me and wanted to marry me.

  Fed up quickly 😀 It was a night-mare for me too. Mostly the CO-missionaries in the home. Old, so frustrated. New, so sick all the time. Very few moments of laughing.

  p.s. I served in the dominican republic. 1999-2000 Brooklyn and Patterson.

  If the WT is a "money making machine"...who gets the money?

  i've seen claims over the years that wt is in the real estate, book publishing business and is a for profit enterprise at it's core.. can those of you that believe this to be the case tell me who benefits from all this wealth?.

  the governing body lives in relatively humble conditions no?.

  i've been curious about this for a while.

  You are talking about a Piper worth a 200.000, donated by a rich brother to make preaching easier in Alaska.

  GB members do live humble it is like Richard said, every member has a humble room in Patterson (I staid for two week in Barr's room, old fashioned cheap furniture) and they are guest-rooms when they are not there.

  That some have nice rooms or had, in Brooklyn had to do with seniority.

  I don't know why some here just don't believe people that have lived and worked at branches, missionary-homes and the HQ. Is it so difficult to accept that it is not about money nor easy life? Who would like to be in the shoes of any GB member at their ages? Getting up every single day at 6, and travelling around the world?

  We have everything from VARG VEUM. An older serie but very good. Then WALLANDER, the swedish version is very good as well. I Personally think the swedish make the best although VARG VEUM IS Norwegian. Dannish sounds very rough.
