Don't they already know that reading their bible more and praying more will fix their problems?
They must really lack faith in Jehovah to have to seek help from a worldly source. LOL

When you Go to Bethel, You Sign Over Your Dead Body.
by new boy inthis is in response to the thread about the supposed suicide of a bethelite in 1995.. when i went to bethel i and everyone else, signed a form stating that "if we died while at bethel the wathtower bible and tract society,had the right to keep our body.".
yes, we thought it strange at the time but as a twenty years old you didn't think much about stuff like that.
besides we were never going to die anyway.

They kept his body and it's buried someplace in upstate New York.
Where is this place? What are the graves marked with? I'm really surprised they don't cremate the body to save money. Do GB members get buried there too?

My sister died at age 38 and the authorities required an autopsy be performed due to her age.
When young men at Bethel dies is an autopsy ever done?
Are you aware if any at Bethel died from a drug overdose?
Keeping your body is a very strange rule.

Office Jargon, drives me nuts
by punkofnice in'granular' seems to be the latest buzz word going around my office.
previously it was 'appetite'.. abstract words that appear to be designed to make the person saying it appear powerful and part of the 'team'.. as lord sugar has observed before; why not just speak english and say what you mean.. office jargon really annoys me.
i had enough loaded language and jargon in the disgusting jw cult..

Punk,
Sounds like your getting lost in the shifting landscape of the office. If you could become more agile you might experience a paradigm shift in your thought processes.

"Fa La La"
by OnTheWayOut inout at the mall with mrs. otwo, she sees a shirt on the rack that was marked down from $25 to just $4.
she holds it up and says, "should i buy this as a workout shirt?".
i tell her "no, because as soon as you figure out what it means, you won't wear it anymore.

As a workout shirt it would make more sense if she covered the 'FA' with an 'Ohh'. Now that has a meaning!

What is your relationship with ALCOHOL?
by nicolaou inhere in the uk new drinking guidelines have been issued which suggest "no more than 14 units a week - equivalent to six pints of beer or seven glasses of wine.".
another piece of the advice which is getting a lot of attention is that "if people drink, it should be moderately over three or more days and that some days should be alcohol-free.".
already people are making cries of "nanny state!

Since these lies were published in the news paper and most all news papers are on-line now, would you mind posting a link to the story that you referred to in the OP?

Chaos at Brooklyn Bethel 12/2016
by James Jack inthis was how it was described to me yesterday by a brother who has been there for some 40 years.
"everyone is about gone; the governing body is set to leave within 2 months; the kitchen and laundry personnel are gone and i have to fend for myself now.".
"also the aggravation of 4 to 5 business men in suits with clipboards daily checking out the watchtower properties.

Do you understand that if you DA it is the same as being DF and your family members are required to shun you?
Are you prepared to be cut-off from your mother and brother for good?

2014-12-17-BOE-Children Give Up Your Pocket Money!
by Atlantis inpetra!
2015-12-17-boe already, you dear brothers have done so well, sending gifts both large and small.
for in-stance, two children, five and seven years old, sent their pocket money to help build our new bethel instead of going to the circus, writing, "this is much better than that!

Sorry WT! You will never again get our
circus $,
ice cream $,
Disney World $
Movie theater $
Popcorn $
candy $
grocery $
vacation $
education $
retirement $
The return on a WT investment is a big old heaping pile of GUILT as demonstrated by the OP.
Suck it WT! You will never get another dime from me! And shame on you for using children as pawns for your greed.
