I do understand why many of you are upset but not everyone needs to go to college and even those that do a lot don't graduate from college. Even during the last Republican primary campaign, Ted Cruz advocated not every student needed to go to college, in fact, he was an advocate for expanding apprentenship programs. Now a days there are programs and jobs that don't need degrees but need to know how to do the work, like in computers and technology. There are CS Degrees but employers have discovered that they don't so much need people with the Degree but the people who can actually do what is needed to be done.

Latest son of thunder video on YouTube and the 07 letter to the elders.
by Crazyguy inin his video he mentions an elders letter sent to germany in 07 , i believe.
in this letter if i'm understanding it correctly the elders are being instructed to send most of any information on hand about child abuse in their congregation to headquarters and any thing else they have at home or in their personal possession to destroy it.
this seams to be the most obvious case of wt telling their elders to destroy information.

It is also to be noted for the most part even if Watchtower did say to destroy all records of this, this is still not illegal for the most part. For the most parts of the world, they are not bound to keep any records on any of those activities. It is kept for the internal functions of their activities. Even an employer doesn't have to keep records of their employees other than what is required by law if they destroy paperwork they just can't use it defend themselves in a court action.

I never pointed you out as being right or wrong. Some people here have said oh this needs to go to zalkin or the arc because people want it to be real. It is just a reminder people have to look for credible evidence not just evidence.

Just because someone has reportedly in the past doesn't mean everything they say is accurate. Look at just two examples, Brian Williams and Dan Rather, two nightly news Giants but we're either fired or demoted not because all their stories were untrue but because one story was wrong. This maybe true but a single copy isn't proof. I could make a letter like that in a few moments.

Has this letter been confirmed as authentic and not just someone just making it up on their word program and putting it out there.

Anointed Ratios
by Labate inanother recent topic got me thinking.
has there ever been any kind of study of the ratio of male to female anointed?
if the female anointed will be co-rulers in heaven with morris and company, why are they not represented as gb members and helpers before armageddon arrives?.

I am not defending Watchtower, but you would also have to have the same complaints for the mainstream denominations of Islam, Catholicism, Judism and to even some degree Shintoism and other non-abrahamic religions.

we have a laid off bethelite with an engineering degree!
by nowwhat? inthis guy have been at bethel for 25 years when he could have been making 75-100 thousand a year as an engineer.
so they kick him to the curb so they don't have to house him and his wife anymore.
they run into a problem at warwick and they ask him to come back for 3 weeks.

They are still accepting new Bethelites but it is no longer a career it is an experience. You won't be a lifer anymore. The jobs that can be done from a remote location they are doing that, but printing, maintenance construction and things that can't be done remotely are still being done inside Bethel. Even some Legal and Service department work is being done by remote workers.

If you are selling the building where laundry was and you're not closing Brooklyn down totally you're going to bring in the cost to move laundry from one building to another for a short period of time, it can be said for any number of departments, from offices to maintenance shops. You would have to bring in the expense to make another building or floor work for that process, and if it is not for a long enough period of time then they don't get an ROI.

The trouble with selling in stages is again if they are not actively being used for their "charity" mission it can be tasked. a charity cannot just sit on empty building forever and not do anything in them. Also, you would have to split up the bethel family to another site and keep support people to keep maintaining the sites.
