I found it on google maps.
It's less than one mile from Kensington Palace!
To put valuations into perspective, individual flats in that cul-de-sac go for around £1million each.
i made a post of this, but feel it warrants a thread.
in central london ( paddington) the " property management company" we refer to as jehovers witnesses, bought a church building, which is now a kingdom hall, but with the outside appearance of a church.. i got an explanation from bethel " it's just a building".
well let's give the organisation credit for its business sence.

w99 3/15 p. 24 Building on Pagan Foundation
AMONG the many impressive monuments that are visited by tourists to Rome, Italy, is the Pantheon. The Pantheon was originally a pagan temple, a "place for all gods," which is the meaning of the original Greek word. Today, it is still considered a Roman Catholic church.
It ought to be obvious, however, that changing the dedication of a temple or the name of a celebration is not sufficient to transform the 'worship of devils into the service of the true God.' "What agreement does God's temple have with idols?" asked the apostle Paul. "'Get out from among them, and separate yourselves,' says Jehovah, 'and quit touching the unclean thing'

i received an e-mail today, which says, in part :.
" thank you for your email dated 19 august to the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse.
regarding your concerns about the jehovahs witness religion and your offer to provide further.
well, here i am.. hello world, mrs. eden sending regards to everyone.
:).
my english is limited, so please go easy on me.. mrs. eden.
Hi Mrs. E, good to have you here!
Forget all the complicated stuff, just say you're under Mr. E's headship and have to do what he says.
That way they can all deal with him instead
hope my technical skills on my tablet works.
here goes......dr. laura slessinger is a well-known conservative talk show host.
she has expressed very negative beliefs about homosexuality.
Je Suis, you don't need to prove yourself here.
Lose the JW guilt and 'cantdoenough'ness, and just enjoy being yourself.
You don't have to do a quota of posts per month!
memorial service - did anyone go?
this may mean something in the uk.
there were 600 in attendance (why do they always count?
Brent was a nice guy when he visited my cong.
He's had it tough the last few years.
i have been searching the better part of this morning to find the thread in which somebody commented on 1006 known pedophiles which equals 3 elders at each jc and the totals on how many elders did not report to police (3000?
) and also how many known victims in australia.
i think they also broke it down to how many victims that would average each week/month for the last 60 + years.
by their own admission the jehovah`s witnesses have acknowledged to the royal commission that 1006 child sex abuse cases against members of their religion have been handled in house.. 1006 cases over 65 years , equals to more than one , every month , every month , every year , for the next 65 years.. a judicial committee consists of 3 elders ,so 3 elders handled 1006 sexual abuse cases over 65 years equals 3018 elders who know about this abuse and never contacted the authorities .either police or ,child protection services .. what sort of morals or ethics do these so called christians have ?.
smiddy.
Splash The total number of victims on the list submitted to the Royal Commission came to about 3,500.
That's more than one every week for 65 years.
Correction - The total victims on the list was about 1730, which is more than 1 every two weeks, for 65 years.
i have heard that phrase several times on the jw broadcast, uttered by gb members!
"the governing body has asked me to bring to your attention (whatever)".
aren't you the governing body?
The elders do the same, its a way of dodging responsibility.
Instead of saying "me and Bro x have decided you can't have a beard", its " the BoE have decided..."
It's a form of cowardice, hiding behind a faux label.
