Based on their belief that the GB will be in heaven with Christ, then the sooner these old men die, the quicker Armageddon will come in. The rank and file are probably praying for their deaths every day.

Where are the funds going to come from? Warwick Expansion
by HiddenPimo inso with the news that they are remodeling patterson and expanding warwick, where are the funds going to come from?.
could this be a ruse like the need for thousands of kingdom halls proclaimed a few years back only to be replaced with the we realized the halls were not at capacity and the great sell-off began?.
maybe the hope is going to be that the sheep will give give give and then all of the sudden, after prayerful consideration the gb have determined that the current resources are sufficient to create the needed media and content.. my bet is that in 10 years it will all be consolidated to warwick and walkill and patterson will be sold to who i have no idea, but they own a ton of property in upstate ny..

Like this new recording and TV studio. Notice that they don't want to reveal how much it will cost, but will no doubt be asking the faithful sheeple to contribute towards it.

Helping Cult Victims Cope.
by Lost in the fog inwhile the following article deals with cults in a broad brush manner, the final section on helping cult victims cope with life after leaving is very practical, especially the self assessment review questions.

highlights from Circuit Overseer Guidelines
by neat blue dog ini just finished looking through the circuit overseer manual, so here are some highlights.
first up, regarding circuit assemblies:.
if a brother is so extremely overweight that others would be distracted if he had a part on the program, good judgment would need to be used in deciding whether to give him an assignment.

The C.O.'s wife always used to operate the slide projector usually because she had seen the whole thing week after week.
Give it to an alert brother who since it is his first time will probably make a mess of it. I mean the ones in my old KH couldn't work the video machines and even had trouble selecting the right songs to start the meeting. UNLESS they were sabotaging the meetings I hadn't thought of that before!

This is sort of the reverse to that.
We were told of a person who moved into our housing estate and had a window cleaner come to do her windows. As he was putting out his ladders he banged his arm and came out with a few F**ks.
This woman was shocked and said "I didn't think Jehovah's Witnesses swore."
"I'm not a Jehovah's Witness," said the window cleaner.
"Really?" said the woman, "I was under the impression that you must be. In fact I thought virtually every window cleaner in the county was. Because all of the Jehovah's I have ever met clean windows when they are not out knocking doors."
True story.

Cause of Mass Shootings Mental Health?
by blondie ini have been sad to see so many groups and individuals say that the cause of these events are the mental status of the shooters.
i have looked over the backgrounds of these shooters, and few had medically identified mental health issues.
it is too easy to think that people shoot or kill other people because they are mentally ill.. actually, many or most people with real mental illnesses are most likely to be the victims of others.. i have been a volunteer with the organization called nami (national alliance of mental lillness) for 25 years now.

If mental health alone led to violent gun crime it'd be seen as a global problem. Strangely it isn't.

Overlapping Generations
by Lost in the fog inperhaps this explains why the gb have a fixation with time and chronology.
also why they keep their adherents in a prison away from the real world.
lol.

Don't count on witnessing Watchtower's demise anytime soon.
by Roger Kirkpatrick inthe fact that there are pomi ex-jws who have been disfellowshiped or inactive for years who still live in constant fear of armageddon indicates that watchtower will manage to exist in one way or another for years, if not decades, to come.
watchtower, like all other religious cults, operate on the premise that "you can fool some of the people all of the time...and that's enough!

Slimboyfat,
But closing branches or bethels is not necessarily the same as selling the property. The one in Ireland ceased as a Bethel Home but is now used as a translation centre and a location for their new Kingdom Evangelisers training hub. The Bethelites have been thrown out onto the streets and the Bethel might have finished its role as the Ireland branch office but the building is still in use. Just saying.
