Cost of new Kingdom Halls?

by Blttex in

i have been told that the cost to build a new kingdom hall is $500k +.

i have a background in commercial construction and this seems pretty high to me, considering all the free labor.

that is just the cost of the building, excluding the lot price.

It's not fucking rocket science!

a friend of mine recently had his co visit and in the elders meeting the co out-right asked the question: how are the friends doing in your cong.

as regards pursuing higher education?

the co continued...you know in view of all the counsel from the slave regarding the dangers.

But they are only 8 imperfect men!!!

by notsurewheretogo in

i'm fed up of my still-in wife using this excuse that they can utter wrong beliefs and doctrines.. .

the fact that there are imperfect humans involved in the organisation is very much irrelevant.. .

we all accept, including jdubs, that these men are just men who may think and say wrong things like the rest of us as they go about their own lives.

Narcissists and narcissistic suppliers in all walks of life. they just happen to get hooked in these culty pyramid schemes.

The thing that pisses me off is the ambient abuse used to control people. Effff those guys.

hello everyone, i know you have heard this topic before and your probably thinking.

...not again lol.. but i was wondering if anyone has thought of going back for the same reasons as myself, i don't think its the truth but i searched and my conclusion is that other religions don't have the truth, they are all wrong in my opinion.

if there is no other religion to go too, why leave were i was born and raised.

I agree. Be impeccable with your word. If everyone suddenly became "IMPECCABLE WITH THEIR WORD" this POS organization would dry up and blow away with the wind.

Shunning: How would You Overcome it?

by ABibleStudent in

after reading the thread soon to be 18 and quit speaking to her mother- suggestions?, i started thinking of how to use the wtbts's doctrine to help jws to see what is the real purpose of shunning for the wtbts.

hopefully, some good ideas will be posted to this thread and may help exjws and jws to maintain relationships with each other instead of shunning the non-jws.. how would a jw react to the following?.

do christians shun or not associate with non-jws to help non-jws believe that the wtbts has the "truth", to keep the cong clean of non-believers, or to not be shunned?

Can the elders make up stuff to make sure that a brother pretty much never gets to be elder?

by toto555 in

it's been my observation that if the elders really want a brother to become elder, then they will come up with all the reasons in the world to appoint him.

the reverse is also true.

if the elders really don't want a brother to become elder, then they will make up all sorts of reasons not to appoint him despite perhaps the brothers many years in the truth, great talks, spirituality etc.
