Report a corruption in a Kingdom Hall

by VictorGoh in

how can i report a corruption in a kingdom hall?

can i escalate this to the jw headquarter?

any suggestions are appreciated..

although cooking pots are not directly "religious" subject, perhaps not many will deny that a happy belly can lead to wholesome religious thoughts and peaceful spiritual discussions.. that said, through the years i have tried most major brands of cooking pots - all the way from all-clad to cast-iron skilets - including some with the most extraordinary claims in between.. however, the one we have used the most in our kitchen is one brand from denmark, specifically, the 5 quart pot called "scanpan.

" it is now approaching 40 years of daily use, and it has held-up surprisingly well.

the handles are as tight as day one when we bought it.

I got an instant pot, just add ingredients set time and pressure and go. I love it. Got to be careful I have burned a few things till I figured it out. There is cook books out there.

Jealousy and Envy ran rampant in that hall. My mom would give bread and bake cakes for some. And some would start acting up.

Some in the congregation have a sense of entitlement. We own a bakery and a poor sister was getting married and could not afford even a cake for a wedding day much less to say even have it in the hall. I guess she and her husband to be didn't fit into the click. No problemo! We made the bake for her and had her married at Our Villa. Food and drinks all tooking care of. She was greatful. But the congregation had gossip about us for months . Even a special needs talk was produced because of this wedding. Only a small few from the congregation where invited.

I remember a Pioneer sister at a local meeting went on and on how Geehovah fixed her car. [ the money to fix her car] My Dad and I worked on her car an did it at cost, we lost money and time. Did we get a Thank You. Nope. The mighty hand of Geehovah did it. Not the skill of mechanics and the sister being so cheap.

My Dad and I where very angry about.

1969 Awake on Education - A Sore Spot for Me

by NotBlind in

jw
friends

my father would have started college 49 years ago this week.

about three months earlier, the week he graduated high school, the awake!

magazine came out with some very clear direction to teenagers.

Why Watchtower hates Higher education is because it teaches one to think. To analyze. Once you truly think and analyze Watchtower core beliefs. It falls apart! Makes no sense.

freedom of speech and loss of rights

by enoughisenough in

i was thinking about freedom of speech after watching a clip about the jw suing kevin mcfree.

they wanted to take away his freedom of speech.

but in thinking about it, that is the way of the organization, save they want to control thought as well.

Watchtower fails to see that we live in the " Information Age" they can't hide anymore no matter how hard they try.

Pioneer couple sense of entitlement

by nowwhat? in

so there's this middle age pioneer couple.

he works part time and the wife doesn't work at all.

their daughter is getting married and even though it is known they go on multiple vacations a year, they expect the grooms parents to pay for 100% of the wedding!

No we had a bad reputation. But for some reason when they needed their car fix or a cake made for one of their get togethers which we were never invited, they would remember the Italian Family.

Alot of prejudice in that hall.

My Mom has a Bakery and makes fresh bread every morning. This one Pioneer/ Elder's wife came in to the Bakery and demanded free bread since she spends her time serving Geehovah.
