  i don't now whether anyone else read that article, but several of the photos , and the comments under the subtitle "happy marriages" wherein the happy quartet suggested that they acceded to marriage only when uber-zealot females who took priority over physically attractive girls could be found.... made me wonder... hmmmm... .

  I intended no reproach; for all I know they're fine people... I've come to believe that being gay is a genetic predisposition more than a lifestyle choice. At the same time, for anyone who has spent some time at Bethel, where homophobia is pervasive, the suspicion that some, if not many, celibate gays are present in the family, is not new.

  I can't help but sense that these Bethel "lifers" succumbed to peer pressure to "Straigthen up and Fly Right" ... at least one of those photos is a little too touchy-feely for comfort, IMHO

  during the past week, 17 different articles on various practices of jws and comments to those, have been published on the web page of the norwegian equivalent of the bbc, nrk: http://www.nrk.no/nyheter/norge/1.8397366.

  in addition to this a special news programme with a discussion on sexual abuse and jw was broadcast on nrk2, and p1 contained an interview with an ex-jw on its weekly news summary programme.. it seems the expose is continuing..

  i'd just like to see who here has served at bethel, including myself.

  this may be useful for those that have specific questions about bethel, but don't know who of us actually served there.

  could we hear from those that served at bethel and where you served?

  pastor russell had 20 million readers of his newspaper columns worldwide and as many eager students of his topical bible study, studies in the scriptures.. he advertised for 1000 preachers to sell his books door to door!.

  the photo drama of creation wowed 9 million people in the early 1914 synchronizing film, hand colored frames and phonograph recordings.. state of the art!.

  judge rutherford availed himself of victrola recordings of "religion is a snare and a racket!

  They don't dare expose their ideas to public scrutiny in an open forum.... it would be a disaster.
