Serbia: "Parents from hell sentenced the baby to die in a hospital" - Mon, Nov 27, 2017

by darkspilver in

there's been some front page coverage in serbia today (mon, nov 27, 2017).

monster parents condemned baby to death!

- alo!.

Firstly it's Serbia, not Russia.

Secondly, it is tabloid journalism but not indicative of a communist history, far more like sensationalist nonsense common to the worst of the Western red tops.

Thirdly, the reporting is poor, sensationalist and undoubtedly unbalanced however the continued pressure that the WTS society places on it's adherents to make the stark choice between life and death even when dealing with young innocents such as this provides the perfect foundation for this type of story. It's the WTS that is to blame for perpetuating the cult mentality that means even parents of a new baby will put loyalty to doctrine as their highest priority.

CO Rose UK

by jookbeard in

does anyone know this guy, where he came from?

how he climbed the jw ladder, i have to say i know nothing about him but he seems to be kicking ass with the problems in the north of england..

He was toxic Jook. The COs I have known over the years have all been a mix, some OK, some two faced, some smarmy, some performers but overall all manageable. The best you had a laugh with, the worst you could ignore. Rose is a class of his own. He hates apostates. He hates elders and MS who don't do the hours. He hates those clearly capable of playing the game. He is vengeful, spiteful, without mercy and simply a nasty piece of work.

I hardly spoke to him the three years he was in Sussex, in fact I think he was missing for at least 50% of the time doing other more important things with schools elsewhere. I know it was a stand in who spoke to me the visit after I stepped down because of the bile that spewed from his mouth during his first elders and MS meeting with us.

I don't know if he served on the IOW but I don't think he hails from there. I recall he is from the Midlands I think but could be wrong, doesn't have a southern English accent, that's for sure.

What Would Happen If A Governing Body Member Was In Russia After The Label Of Extremist Was Held Up In Court

by Brokeback Watchtower in

would they get their visa revoked?

would they be arrested?

if i remember right didn't one new guy gb go to the procedings and was there for appeal?

konceptual99

I'd have felt really bad. One of the tops guys in the org. Come over to Russia all "we love you, we are supporting you" then hot footing it out of there as soon as it goes tits up with a "keep warm and well fed".

The Russian visa application asks if you are a member of any banned organisations so not surprised he legged it. Perhaps he should have asked the question "what would Jesus do?"

Over 70 so given the boot Freddo. He's been a CO and foreign language DO. Company man for years. Married to a daughter of an old school anointed fella. Nice guy overall that's been put on the shelf by the org he served for years.

Nothing better than a career in Jehovah's service hey?
