You can [not] trust the Brothers, wt study this week

by waton in

for the lucid lurkers: # 37. the article's examples really show, that among the 'name people' only 50 % of rank and file, and none of the leaders can be trusted all the time.

but, shut up and put up.. eli and hannah, eli's sons committed gross sins, raping/ seducing woman visitors to the temple, for years, yet naive worshippers are to trust their brothers, even with their children ?

inaction by wt approved?

Most of the Elders I have run ins with are Dishonest and Con-Man. Not all of them, but the ones I have done business with. And I have alot to say for the arrogant elder who works for me. He is not very honest and not a stand up guy.

Does praying for “all those who are in positions of authority,” include the 'deep state' and all subsequent coverup's?

by was a new boy in

definition of deep state.

: an alleged secret network of especially nonelected government officials and sometimes private entities (as in the financial services and defense industries) operating extralegally to influence and enact government policy.

the power of the deep state comes from experience, knowledge, relationships, insight, craft, special skills, traditions, and shared values.

The more I think about it, I think Watchtower is very much involved in the Deep State Movement. With they Commie Pinky Ideals, just doesn't surprise me.

When I was "Forced " to go out none of my hours where true hours. And most of my magazine placement where in the trash can, but reported as placed. One study I had a good friend would meet for lunch and count that as a "study". I sure played the Watchtower game an No one was the wise to it.

Yes, Xmas in our house before and after we left the Jdubs. Nonna would cook up a 7 course pasta meal. With Baked goods. Think of it fresh pasta. Red, fresh from the vine sauces. Everything fresh.

I had Military and Law enforcement training. The Brothers have always tried to get me to do things for them with my background. Same with my father. Much higher in pay grade and experience then me.
