  hi friends.

  i was watching a message in the official web site of the wt, and it's something like a video for television about a little boy who could not sleep because he was afraid.

  he was painting two buildings and an aeroplane destroying them, i think like the september 11, 2001. the question is how many childrens can't sleep right now thinking on armaggedon as the ww (watchtower's witnesses) teach.

  About money at the chilean branch office of the WT

  by ChileanRick in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  hi dear friends.. as maybe you know, i'm an elder at one of the congregations in santiago of chile, and all the body of elders received a letter from the branch office saying that if the congregation has some money in a current account or so they would send it to the branch.

  in june 2003, a letter about the contributions (donations) said that the money coming from all the congregations every month were so little (few), and they were worried about what are the publishers doing with their money.

  this means that the chilean branch of the wt has some economical problems.

  when i was a teen i started to go to the kh, and one of the things that made me feel bad was to see how the publishers were teached at the service meeting how they must ask for money to the people on the "field" service.

  maybe you remember there was a "price list" for the literature, and all the publishers had a goal to get each month, i mean, the special pioners must "place" for example xx books and xx magazines, regular pioners x books and xx magazines.... etc.. of course i asked the jw who was going to my house for bible studies about this, and i remember he told me it wasn't a "commercial" work.

  i believed him, and a little time after i was selling books and magazines to the people.. now, we don't ask a contribution directly to the people, but the wt is always looking for money from the publishers, and here in chile there is a letter that the organization sent to all the elders asking why the congregations are sending too little money to the branch office.

  Reasoning book

  by ChileanRick in

  2. friends

  dear friends.

  do you know why the "reasoning" book was reprinted in 1989 after 4 years of published?

  because there were some problems with the editor of a greek-english lexicon, by liddell & scott.

  Dreaming on JW model

  by ChileanRick in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi friends.

  i was reading that naomi campell's mother is an active jw, and i understood that she was preaching to her daughter about the marvelous and wonderful organization that is the wt, and for a moment i thought that for all the males in the congregations would be so nice to have her as our sister..... imagine......sister campbell is arriving to the meeting at the kh and she is late and walks slowly looking for a place to get sit, she is wearing beautiful red underwear...... or maybe, in front of wt headquarters in ny, the organization placed a "pasarela" (i don't know the word for the place where the models walk showing dresses) and all the bros and sis are buying the watchtower and awake magazines from the campell's hands.

  here in chile, we have a brother who owns a factory of women underwear called "intime".. chileanrick

  but, internet has given me too much information on wtbts, and now i can see it is a fraud this doesnt mean i dont love jehovah or jesus, i love my brothers and sisters too, but, i cant say the same for the organization.

  New opinion on Memorials

  by ChileanRick in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here in chile, when the times of memorial its near, you can see a lot of brothers and sister buying new clothes for that ocassion.

  so, when you are attending the memorial meeting, you can feel nobody is listening really.

  everybody is looking how are the others clothed, who is a visitor, and when the meeting gets and end, nobody is really interested in other ones, but only in its friends.
