Fred Franz was blind and living in the Bethel Infirmary but still a member of the Governing Body
So the story that he left due to infirmity does not hold up.
on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

for those of you who are pimo, how do you feel it may be effecting your mental and physical health?
is it easy to pretend to be what you are not?
how do you feel about falsely supporting the pimi which builds them up and therefore an org you don't believe in?
You can basically do whatever you want. Sex, blood, smoking, drugs, rock and roll.
You can’t just do those things. You would first have some warnings and then possibly a 90 day sanction.
if you keep doing them you may be an habitual 90day sanction JW.
but yes mighty big changes from years ago
uh oh, looks like the mega thread gave up the ghost, so while i investigate / fix it just continue the discussion here .... it's been a long 9 years lloyd evans / john cedars.
I’m interested to know if Lloyd himself knows what a scumbag he has been to his family?
reading those letters he wrote to his wife it seems it’s all her fault that he cheated on her with prostitution.
does he genuinely feel those that accused him of using sex workers are in the wrong for accusing him of that even though it’s true?
i apologize if this post ends up in the wrong place.
i have been a lurker here for several years.
i thoroughly enjoy this site, have for years, and read something or another on this site many times a week.
“wouldn't say that the feeling of brotherhood was fake, but it was conditional.”
“ I believe JWs are right that Jesus is not God. There are a few other things I think they are right or at least partially right about but this one is the biggest one for me. I believe Jesus is God's son, but not God. And I believe that the only path to God is through following Jesus.”

He has admitted to dating a sex worker, this means hiring a prostitute for a while. Poor girl she must have been very desperate or exploited and forced into this horrendous industry.
He is so obviously lying that he didn’t go there for exactly that. He keeps crying about being sexually repressed by being brought up a JW.

chapters detailing his sexting of young girls, drunkenly humping an Xmas tree, and similar. Who in their right mind would even put that shit in a book? Embarrassing, cringey as fugg retarded crap that makes him look like an even bigger moron and creep that he already did
He is clinging to sexual repression caused by being a JW. This is now part of his identity and he won’t let it go. He is a pervert but blames the org for it all.
Most of us on here had the same or similar upbringing as neck beard but all don’t claim to be sexually repressed perverts blaming the GB for it all.
He felt guilty everytime he masterbated growing up and always felt awkward around girls. Then he got into sexting and cyberflashing and it’s not anything to do with him being an ugly awkward creep no it’s all the GBs fault because they have high moral standards and he has very low gutter moral standards
now he is obviously addicted to porn and cheap sex workers. Drugs come along with the lifestyle which he has admitted to already to some extent, the drugs and sex addiction’s are probably far worse than he has admitted to
drugs on both sides the poor exploited women maybe selling their bodies to get the drugs they are addicted to. Then the perverted creeps like neck beard who pay these poor women for sex.
it’s a horrible situation and his donors are supporting it
i found this while googling.
i thought elders and/or high rankers don't get paid.
is there something i don't know?
It’s all about how many years full time service.
when I was at Bethel I got the standard that everyone gets plus the bonus based on how many years FT service
if you are a couple both pioneers for years you get a fair bit
plus no outgoings at all everything is paid. Your car expenses all paid plus mileage which is all trust, some people put down hundreds of miles more than they did and make profit
plus you get given lots of white envelopes by wealthy JWs. Often the congregation pays for little trips flights and accommodation if giving a talk somewhere
clothes all donated, toiletries all free , food and everything free. No bills no repairs for anything need paying for, just put in a reccy we used to call it. (Request form)
when you think about what does a Bethelite ever need money for? They can go months without ever needing money, it’s just for extra treats but you get plenty of thise
during lett’s announcement that beards are now allowed he elaborated at some length how brothers ought to feel and react to the change in policy.
he warned brothers not to resent not being able to grow beards earlier if they had wished to do so.
he also warned brothers who supported the old policy not to allow themselves to wonder what the point of doing so was now that it has changed.
That they aren't in it for anything other than the social club.
Yes that the only reason I’m still Physically in. I know for certain the GB are charlatans. But I don’t know for certain that the Bible is wrong, so I still keep the hope in the Bible.
folks: regarding all the recent changes about dis-fellowshipping and time for re-instatement.
(and, even speaking to persons who are dis-fellowshpped.
) back in 1972, a new book was released at the summer district convention, that replaced the yellow-colored "lamp": book.
Yes I remember talking to older ones and they say there was a time when the DF rules lightened up but people went to far resume family relationships. Then they said there is no need for them to get reinstated so they made the rules really strict again.
what will happen with this new flip flop this time?
there are no serious consequences for doubting the gb.
there are no consequences for going against the direction.
we can now celebrate anything.. what will happen if you take blood, celebrate xmas and birthdays ect?.
The new direction is if the person says they are repentant then that is enough.
Its gone from what the elders say to what the sinner says
