  i pretty much did it all.

  vacation pioneered as a youngster and became a regular pioneer out of school.

  i became a ms then an elder.....the organization pushes you to be somebody within the confines of their realm.

  Many of the ex Bethelites are having a rough time getting settled in their new life style, their severance package has been generous in the short term but not enough for the future. In the spiritual sense they are not highly productive and some of the congregations are getting sick and tired of supporting them; so I don't think that they are very happy.

  My comment above relates to some ex Bethelites assigned as Special Pioneers, however they are not really prepared for the day to day field service routine; they might have been excellent at their Bethel jobs but not prepared for the congregational life and needs. Some of them have been a bust and the local brothers are very disappointed with them.

  My personal observation regarding the retired or fired special servants:

  Many of the ex Bethelites are having a rough time getting settled in their new life style, their severance package has been generous in the short term but not enough for the future. In the spiritual sense they are not highly productive and some of the congregations are getting sick and tired of supporting them; so I don't think that they are very happy.

  As to the travelling overseers that is a different history, they have been well placed; sometimes even choosing the congregation. They are seen as "princes" and most of them are still getting a lot of the "handshakes". Even with the vow of poverty quite a few have a good nest egg; in my opinion they might miss the loss of power but they are not suffering financially.

  I think is a mistake to try to validate the barbaric actions that people like this criminal commit. A phenomenon that happens with revolutionary movements is that a lot of common criminals will join, not for ideological reasons but for personal reasons or just as a way of getting even with the system.

  I know of some people with very questionable credentials, some of them in prison for common crimes who became leaders of revolutionary movements and they are today "heroes of the revolution". In reality they were thief's, murderess, rapist and many other delinquents.

  So like I say is not wise to attach any ideological justification to atrocities like this one.

  It seems like the actual Reveal website doesn't have current information, it goes back to 2/17. Most of the information about the event is in the Alexandra James blog; if I find something else I will post it.
