I saw this on Ex JW Reddit:

"This may not be news to you but it was to me. Forgive me if this has already been posted before. It came from a reliable source working on the Warwick project.
1. Wallkill Bethel had broken ground and laid the foundation for a new recreation building. Construction on the building was cancelled and they buried the foundation. That's not a misprint, they buried it. RIP
2. The Governing Body decided to downsize the crews working on the Warwick project and start sending people home ahead of schedule. Also, they were going to start moving people from hotels into the finished residence buildings. This was mentioned to the Warwick workforce. However, they were banking on getting out of the hotel contracts early(these are the hotel rooms that they are renting to house volunteers) the hotels wouldn't let them, so the workers are remaining on the project until the contracts end with the hotels and they will be forced to continue to pay for the rooms.
It seems to me that the second point is related to the adjusted finish date for the project."

Does anyone have INDEPENDENT confirmation that this is true. Even better does anyone have before /after photos?

Now he is going to the fact that you don't need two witnesses to adultery? Mr. Stewart is building brick by brick.

Angus just brought out a question that someone on this forum raised re. a girl being raped in the field without two witnesses. He is sharp.

i can't believe this crap, jackson is giving a witness to stewart......oh please no...........

I think Angus may be using the "give them enough rope" principal. He is just lining things up, based on the hearings in the past week, my guess is he know where he is going.

Angus Stewart is very good. The depth of his knowledge about arcane aspects of the organization is amazing. Not only that he focus's like a laser and is not easily led off track. I am very impressed with this guy!

The judge is trying his best to pin him down on allowing women to be involved in the initial aspects of the case. The judge is starting to get pissed because Jackson keeps dancing around the question

My Issue: How To Step Down As A MS Without Getting Noticed

so that other thread was fun but now i need some help with something.

i was born in the truth most of my family is in.

although they aren't outwardly super spiritual i doubt any of them would ever leave.

I did it with no long term problems at all. Been out for several years with all my family still in. No one shuns me, not even those in the hall.

First of all you need GAD - Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Then mild depression. That will not be a problem given what you are now learning about everything you have believed your whole life.

Just tell the elders that you would like to step down as a servant for personal reasons. Do not blame the (UN mess, Pedophiles, 1914, false prophecy, the blood issue, Malawi or anything else) Just say it is personal and you are not comfortable right now in large groups of people. If you do it with respect and don't attack them they will be much less likely to attack you in defense.

Don't try to aggressively "convert" your friends or family, that is the way to disaster. Be very very careful of your "online" tracks and history. Instead periodically just raise valid questions that help them think outside of the box. When you make a valid point and they admit it, don't go for the throat. Step back. That way the next time you make a valid point they won't be afraid to admit it again. Eventually they will realize that they don't have the answers and they will not blame you since your questions are sincere and valid. Do not attack! That will get their back up faster than anything else. Also it does not hurt to go to the memorial at least and maybe one or two other meetings per year. That allows them to have "hope" for you. Don't start celebrating holidays etc unless that is more important to you than your family.

That is what worked for me. It worked well. I am not shunned by anyone, if I go to a anniversary party or other "get together" with members of the org everyone is friendly and I have no problems at all. No one expects me to be at Circuit Assemblies or District Assemblies. Last year and the year before I did go on Sunday just to be nice and it was not a big deal. I just slept all afternoon in the AC. : )

Anyway, what I am telling you is that it can be done.

Let me be clear, there are others who will not agree with this method. I am not suggesting that this is the only way or even that this is what you should do. I am simply saying that this worked for me, and if I had it to do again I would do exactly the same thing.
