I also believe that it was the way I composed and worded the document made it clear that I was not and had no intentions of being any threat to the organisation. The important thing is that we must act on the dictate of our conscience to enjoy peace of mind and happiness in life.

Wow how different that is to the stories I heard. I'm glad after many years that I have had the record set straight. This is what I heard.

When you returned to Australia you were disfellowshiped for apostacy. You were now angry and bitter, and had tried to sue the society for loss of earnings. But you lost in court. I remember once years ago looking on the net trying to substantiate this but found nothing. You and you wife had separated. I had no idea you were living in NZ.

Wow oh wow Joe I never knew that about the bible. Seems odd how they'll treat you if you disagree with a bunch of men, and yet disagree with the bible and "hey no problem".

i have fond memories of you joe. I can still see you up on the stage how you used to have those reading glasses on the end of your nose and every now and again you would peer over them to look at the audience. I also remember making samwidges along with your wife and Alice Kramer.

There certainly have been a lot of rumours about you over the years, and it's nice to know that the rumour of you and your wife separating is completely false. So your living in the N of Z now. Some how I got the impression you had returned to Australia and that is where you were disfellowshiped. Obviously another false rumor as well. I would be guessing that you'll be getting inundated with emails at the moment from people from your past. It was refreshing to see your postings.

New LDC Meeting KH Video

by wifibandit in

been away from the site for a few days...because i have been busy getting these!!!!!!

(pixel, thank you!

) they did not make it easy, plus technical difficulties.. for the main attraction:.

Word on the street is they got $US43.2 million when they sold that bethel in New Zealand. 2 of the 3 couples of the full time staff that had been there for many years were put out on the street, with no assistance at all. Sort of seems a bit rude how they made obscene amounts of money and could of even helped those 2 couples.

It must be of concern to the GB with all the information that is been leaked now

by joe134cd in

i was just watching cedars prank call to tomo3.

by the way lloyd very well done and totally funny.

but on a more serious note (and i think what must be of concern to the gb) are the amount of leaks that must be occurring at a senior level or at least by a person who has access to sensitive information.

joe134cd

Low and behold. Just after posting this. This arrives in my email in box.

I was just watching Cedars prank call to ToMo3. By the way Lloyd very well done and totally funny. But on a more serious note (and I think what must be of concern to the GB) are the amount of leaks that must be occurring at a senior level or at least by a person who has access to sensitive information. Another example that comes to mind is the elders school video dealing on suicide. It would of only been CO/DO who would of had hard copies to that information. So somewhere someone has felt disgruntled enough (or have reason enough) to have leaked it. Seriously (and this was something I totally underestimated) It wasn't until I started visiting apostate Web sites, that I began to realize just how slowly information travels in the Org. God my family is only just telling me now stuff I knew weeks ago.

Relief Efforts for Typhoon in Manila (Philippines)

by StephaneLaliberte in

i find articles like this (click very frustrating to read.

when i read reports on how charity was delivered, i am expecting to read numbers that will give me an idea of how money was used for such relief.

unfortunately, the information provided is simply not enough to provide any ball park idea of what was actually spent.

And to top it all off after the repair work was done in the U.S disaster areas they (in not so many words) were turning around and guiltily the home owner to turn over the insurance check. I'm not here saying that the home owner should of expected the work for free, but I also think that unless Wt was going to help the poorest of poor who really could not afford the work, then Wt should of never got involved

they just put up a link to watch a replay of the "new kh meeting", here some screenshots.. .

R.Jerome Harris= Yes I agree with what your saying. I remember seeing a KH in Latin America and honestly it was in bad need of repair. I remember around the same time our hall had under gone 2 refurbishments in the space of a few short years. I remember been perplexed about this thinking how come our KH (I live in a western country) had 2 refurbishments and yet at the same time the Hall in in Latin America was about to collapse and nothing was done. I even remember relaying my observations to an elder at the time, and asking why we went sending the money to more needed Hall. This to was at a time that I was fully indoctrinated.

so i'm by myself because i have talk #3 and i didn't know she would be sick.

buzzing on 4 beers and 1 bourbon and coke.

joe134cd

I bet you felt the spirit upon you. Oh shit you guys are funny. I think that would make me turn up at the Hall again, if I knew someone was going to give a talk half cut. Legendary. Have you heard cedars prank call to ToMo3. That made my day.
