  HQ move; a good thing?

  by Half banana in

  so the new jw hq is to be in warwick and no longer that bleak architectural fixture on the brooklyn skyline.

  actually it makes more sense after all, upstate new york is a more suitable place to have a unicorn ranch than in a city.

  but it is just as easy to produce a drizzle of fairy dust out in the country as it had been in ny.

  The move alone netted the org millions of dollars. I would say that it worked out well for them.

  being a born in, and wanting to celebrate my first christmas is confusing, nerve wracking, and difficult to comprehend.

  Didn't the "beard issue" arise from the hippie culture of the 1960's?

  So, how did the 'beard article' go over yesterday at your congregation?

  at mine the conductor was somewhat awkward and minimal and there were nervous chuckles from the audience.

  two people, including an elder, gave reasonable comments that it's okay as long as it's not extreme styles, etc.

  but then another one of the elders commented that nothing has changed and they still aren't proper locally.

  They would have said the same thing if Hillary won. They also said it 8 years ago when Obama won. They are the masters of spin.

  Org Is RACIST! Towards Sisters Of COLOR In Particular--IMO!

  by HiddlesWife in

  2. scandals

  i'm sorry--i'm getting this very sensitive vibe that the org (mainly those at the top) don't have any respect--forget about love--for sisters of color.

  i'm coming to this conclusion from a couple of videos on jw broadcasting about single sisters.. after watching this video: .

  Coming from a man of color, the treatment of women in general by this org is shameful. Especially if you are single, divorced, a widow, have an unbelieving mate, have an inactive mate, your mate isn't an elder, your mate isn't reaching out, your mate isn't a ministerial servant, blah blah bah blah.......

  Shall I continue?
