Where have you been looking for the past 5 years, it’s been on ex-witnesses radar since then in PDF. Your God Raymond Franz the self proclaimed prophet. He figured if Joseph Smith could do it, why couldn’t he, but then again, you would have to have known his motives back then like us real people that knew about he's immorality. - SimonSays
This is one of the sheep that thinks Raymond Franz wrote the Commentary on James.
Get informed: it was written by Ed Dunlap.
the press is reporting that over 1,000 cases of abuse were hidden from authorities in australia.. australia has around 68,000 publishers.. if you that ratio applied to the u.s. also, there could be over 14,700 cases that were covered up here.. if the ratio held the same worldwide, that would be over 117,600 cases.. just let that sink in a little..

68min of grilling.
so many highlights.
love seeing the hears grinding as they are asked questions... you can see the conflict in their mind as they weigh the .org's response vs the right one to make.
Is there an actual YouTube link?

I'm with DATA-DOG...I was expecting a YouTube link. Am I missing something?
a friend at the convention told me that kenneth williams, a co in the houston texas area was recently removed and taken off the road.
does any one have any details?
There are quite a few that are being put out to pasture due to turning 70 or are older already. Tom Chin is one of these who has given all his life from infancy on and is now getting thrown under the bus. The guy is in better shape than I am and soldiers on like he was only 45. But rules are rules no matter who in the GB 2.0 pulls them out of their own ar$e.
Is that the same Tom Chin that was at Patterson Bethel?

So while we're sharing Bethel experiences, here's one.
When I first got to Bethel, I got there on a Friday night. I got up early on Saturday to go to Morning Worship and my roommates both say, "Oh, Saturday Morning Worship isn't required."
I went that day, since I was already dressed and I had no food in my room.
But from that point on, I only attended Saturday Morning Worship occasionally when I happened to be up early.
I would say I probably missed 85-90% of Saturday Morning Worship the next 8-10 months.
Come to find out, like 2 or 3 months before I left Bethel, I was talking to a new boy. He said something about how he wished they didn't have morning worship on Saturdays. I said, "Saturday's not required..." Everyone in the room looked at me and said, "HUH? You're mistaken. Who told you that?"
Boy did I have egg on my face. lol

I just learned from one of his his posts and photo on Flipper post, that he is also an ex-Bethelite.
By any chance do we know each other?
(By the way, I give you a hard time because I'm a douche and a troll like that. It's nothing personal, bud. I probably wouldn't give you such a hard time if your reactions didn't make me giggle.)

I am hurt however, that you have posted, that you view your service, that you believed was to God, with disrespect.
I don't view my service with disrespect. I view it occasionally with regret.
But I can't dwell on it. If I hadn't gone to Bethel, I wouldn't have gotten a view of the organization from that perspective, and my life today could be totally different.
Because of Bethel, I got homesick, then depressed, then angry that I didn't accomplish what I set out to do. (I wanted to stay for 3 years...ended up leaving after 1.) I came home, dejected, discouraged. I saw the hypocrisy among many (not all, mind you) while I was at Bethel. Left a bad taste in my mouth.
Got over it eventually. Moved to a new town. Met my wife.
I think it's very possible that I would still be a true believer if I hadn't gone to Bethel. So, in that respect, I very much am glad that I had the Bethel experience.
Shows up on mine.

as i have written previously, i crashed a discussion between a young j-dub and his baptist workmate who were having.
a religious debate outside starbucks.
this was months ago.
Fortunately, I only spent a year at Bethel.
Now, when prospective employers ask about that gap in my work history, I say I did volunteer work for 1 year for a faith-based Christian organization in New York. They usually like that, especially here in the Bible belt.
