Ramapo

by Mit123 in

how much is ramapo going to cost?

my daughter in africa meets in a cow shed for her meetings.

i wonder how many khs in africa they could build if they dropped ramapo?.

Well Tuxedo is an exclusive area with million dollar plus homes Warwick/Ramapo not so much. Nice area but they will not get the same return they did from Brooklyn is all I am saying. I mean WTBTS bought that property in Bklyn back in the early 1900's and sold it for.... billions possibly is what we think?

The Warwick and Ramapo properties were built where there were trees and is not at the moment nor ever was zoned for residential so I would think that they would need to find a specific client to purchase it. The gain will not be nearly as substatntial as it was when they left Bk Hts where real estate deveolpers were lining up to grab that VERY desireable location.

Why are JW's THIS blind?

by BoogerMan in

i had a conversation about this 22 carat gold contradiction with a couple of zealous jw's a couple of days ago.. even their personal "explanations" contradicted each other as they tried justify their cognitive dissonance!.

an absolute delight to witness such absurdity.. "after all, no one will be allowed to practice vile things in the new world.

the unrighteous must have practiced these vile things [john 5:29] before their death.

lol... I find it so amusing when I read disagreements about cult teachings.

It’s pretty obvious the real reason is to increase their real estate portfolio.

The problem I see is that the Warwick/Tuxedo/Ramapo area of Orange county NY is not nearly as desireable and valuable as Brooklyn Heights. So they will have more of a challenge unloading this in the future if that is indeed their "scam".

Is the ministry really taken seriously by most JWs?

what say you?.

XBEHERE

then covid happened and zoom was a chance for a good chat while pretending to write letters
many or most did not want to go back to door to door.

I do think that COVID has had a profound impact on the seriousness of the ministry for sure, however I do think that it does depend on the area you are in, the congregation, and the individual publishers. You can not generalize I agree. From what I can see, and speaking from my own PIMO experience, the above quote seems true in many many cases.

by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

Breaking News: Anthony Morris III no longer serving on the Governing Body

this has been announced on the jw's official website, in the "jw news" section.

this is not a joke.

anthony moron da turd is out as a gluttonous body member!

In speaking to many JWs over the passed 2 weeks I can honestly say that at first the feeling was that this was for health reasons. However the more time that is passing and still nothing is said is making people start to wonder. For a high control organization this is not a good thing. The friend that shared the above info with me is a longtime elder, former pioneer/bethelite and a born in and is definitely a PIMI and he was kind of taken aback by what this bethelite shared with him.

As more and more JWs accept that this really happened and start to wonder why, and still nothing is said about it then this will not bode well for PIMI retention. I will definitely be following up with my buddy as time goes on.

PIMO here. Spoke to a Friend from the east coast and we told me that he spoke to a bethelite over the weekend and one of the overseers in his dept. told them that we should not even try to guess what the cause of his not serving on the GB is but trust that the GB would not remove someone for health reasons...

Now of course this could just be opinion of this Bethelite and has no basis in fact. There is still no way to tell for certain what exactly happened. What this does tell me however is that some people are starting to feel as though this was a removal. It might be in their best interest to address this sooner than later I think. Even their "godly bethelites" are starting to wonder WTH is going on.

for the PIMO question as to A. Morris

by enoughisenough in

have the rank and file been told not to "gossip", or "question" about mr morris yet?

i am mindful of how questioning decisions was discouraged and being told to keep things confidential.

( maybe too soon, but do share if a special needs part comes up) you would think that common sense would tell them they cause the questions when they don't share reasons.

XBEHERE

I still go to meetings , PIMO for 20 years...I know I know.. family is entrenched , anyway I receive 2 types of reactions to this news:

1. "probably for health reasons, he is old

2. "thats strange, I am sure more information is forthcoming"

More favoring the health reasons comment by far. The ones that think its strange are probably PIMO or questioning or VERY liberal I am certain.
