No one really knows where Ruthaford is buried. There is some word of mouth evidence that he is buried under the garage of Beth Sarim. I think he is under the garage. The followers would over ride the law IMO. The property has never had major renovation or deconstruction to my knowledge.

JW compassion?

by William Penwell in

i have a nephew that has just recently being diagnosed with a life threatening disease through bad choices he has made in his life over the last 20 years.

now he has asked myself and my sons to be there for him and without being judgemental we have being up at the hospital every other day for the last couple of weeks.

now this is the part where i am just pissed right off.. one of my nephews other cousins goes to the hospital and starts giving him a guilt trip, saying that this was all his own fault that she couldn't talk to him for the last 20 years and his sickness now is all because he left jehooba organization blah blah blah.

The JWs have no compassion. The only goal is to get to Armageddon.

My wife said that her dad said last visit that he was encouraging my wife's niece [her sisters daughter] to go to collage. That she needed to make money and support her self. Late to the party sure, but its a huge deviation from what he was 35 years ago. If my FIL who was a mind numb kool aid drinker is saying this there are others.

Cha I agree. and I would just move on in my life if not for my wife. I know its hard seeing her mother in a facility and her dad struggling. Even though they brought not the sickness but financial issues on them-self and I will say her mother was a fairly arrogant witness in the day. From what I understand her dad does not even mention religion to her when she visits. This is the same guy who went to the elders when we faded out and told them to go make his daughter go to meetings. She was 30 at the time. Its almost like he is running on auto pilot when it comes to meetings and service. The end of the wold is just around the corner is not seeming to be there very strong.

I guess my wifes sister has an attorney and a court date to try to get SSI. She was on SSI got in an accident that in all fairness was not her fault. A drunk crossed the line and hit her head on. She had surgery, She got a settlement and the SSI was taken away because she had money. She ran though it and then had no SSI. I hope she gets it deserve it nor not just to take pressure off my wife's dad.

Could you really trust the Governing Body to the right thing?

by no-zombie in

over the years, many have speculated on how the governing body might reform the society into something that might actually bring some positivity in to the world ... and a resent melancholy moment, i re-watched the youtube clip of usa for africa's, 'we are the world' which was released in 1985. now while i know our men in warwick would never actually consider organizing the brotherhood to do something completely selfless in helping the truly worldly poor, something that would actually improve the religion's reputation ... but the question is ... could you really trust the governing body to run an aid program like usa for africa or band aid, without skimming from the top?.

Thanks for the support, my big problem is my wife is not seeing things correctly. Yes its hard, but her parents and sister made their bed. I have to be a bit tactful but the fact remains her sister is extremely over weight. Like 5.3 feet and 370 pounds. She is suicidal and depressed. But lives on FB looking and living through other Dubbers lives. When My wife and I were first married we went through some very tough times. We were in the middle of the 80s depression recession. I was determined not to ever be down to my last dollar. But her sister is not that bothered when she is out of money and has nothing. I don't know if its the JW and the big A is soon to come or just stupidity or a combination of both. As bad as things are her dad still talks of getting time to get out in service more.
