  Anyone else an Ex Bethel "volunteer"

  i was wondering if there were any other ex-bethelites on here.

  i personally regularly went for temporary work at brooklyn then was assigned to the farm for a year and a half.

  it was... one of the most bizaare experiences of my life.. so i wrote it all down (finally, after some 15 years) so i won't bore anyone on here with the details of the story - because bethel doesn't show up until chapter 15... and for you straight folks, it gets a bit gay in two places... but nothing gross.

  @jwfact - " but at least it opened my eyes, and gave me the foundation to be able to do what I do now to help people leave. "

  That is the way i feel about it as well. It is almost as if they ensure that you do not learn any trade during your first 5 years or so there that you can utilize if you left early. They force you to devote the best years of your life doing the most menial of tasks. Once they feel you rely on them for life they may throw you a bone and put you somewhere that isn't so useless as the cleaning department or being a waiter.

  Whenever brothers would encourage me to talk to the young brothers about Bethel I would tell them directly, "If you want to go it is up to you, there are alot of thigs you could do. However if you plan on getting married (Like every young single JDub does) I would not suggest you go there because you have to wait 5 or 10 years before you can." LOL

  so, unexpectedly, the final talk was announced today and to my surprise and evil glee, they announced gerrit loesch as the speaker!

  first off, at the beginning of his talk, he interrupted himself in the middle of his sentence to scold the microphone brother to lower my mike it's right in my face.. anyway, it was the talk on inspired truth, vs. inspired falsehoods.

  he went through 6 expressions inspired by the demons.

  Why is God speaking in riddles?

  by sosoconfused in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it seems for most of the bible that god spoke directly to people and told them what to do.

  he wrote things on rocks.

  he gave them laws.

  Governing Body Feels Child Molester Should Not Be Condemed But Leaving The Corporations Teaching Merrits Eternal Condemnation

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  according to the latest talk given by gerrit loesch jehovah's witnesses who become child molesters should not be condemned as they can repent and be shown mercy, and according to letters to bodies of elders may after sufficiant time hold positions of trust inside the congregation thus putting unsuspecting members and householder at risk.

  while at the same time the governing body feels that anyone who is a jw who latter on disagrees with current corporations teachings is not to be shown mercy and must be disfellowshipped with out fail, along with being eternally damed, and must be avoided at all cost by fellow jws even family members.. this dfing action of those who leave is enforced by threats of disfelloshipping members who disreguard the wt's disfellowshipping action and are found socializing with them.. do you find that highly inconsistent?.

  yeah that coffee shop had some great Danish omg.

  every year we use to get apostates clamoring outside. Here is a story about how the GB really believe they are heaven bound.

  one year when all the apostates were outside screaming just before lunch I was in 124 Libby and Dan sydlik was there with like 50 other people.

  one guy was scared for sydlik thinking the bad apostates would kill him and ear his bones lol.

  he asked sydlik if he would like an escort and sydlik was like I'll be fine. Because in the twinkling of an eye I'll be gone.....

  really bro
