"We don't know WTF we are doing, and we never have. CTR made a shit-load of money, and somehow we've managed to make a shit-load by getting into the Real Estate biz with the "merchants of the Earth."

At least they would be telling the truth.
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.

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.

in my area i'd guess 30% of the men maybe more have some kind of beard.
this craps gotta wake up somebody still in!.
Didn't the "beard issue" arise from the hippie culture of the 1960's?
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.
Joe Buck has been trying to grow one now for 2 years.

So I guess relations between Russia and France are already improving.
i am incredibly disturbed.
many of the jws i'm still friends with on facebook are incredibly excited that trump won the american presidential race, posting, "yay!

i last spoke to my father in march 1990. we finished a "quick build" kingdom hall and i had a 17 year old spiritual awakening and decided to drop high school to pioneer full time.

we had a arguement and he said stay in school get a degree...and dont come back if your a witness!!
I feel for you Witness 007. I lost my father unexpectedly recently and it hurts like heck.
