  so i am the weird case that i still believe in the jehovah's organization.

  there are a couple of things that stop me from going.

  is there anyone else out there that still believes?

  New financial arrangement is about ownership of the Kingdom Halls and Assembly Halls

  we may believe that the wt is having financial problems because of the sell-off that has been happening lately.

  however, i think the opposite.

  i believe the gb has realized that in today's world the money is in the properties that the sheepies have already paid or are paying for.

  Circuit Overseer wakes up, packs his bags and leaves!

  i just heard this about a co i knew back in the day before he was even a co. he must be in his mid-late 40's now, my mother told me the story as she knows the family very well (the entire family has gone 'apostate' including several elders, circuit overseers and missionaries - this was an "example" family, always on the stage etc).. he wasn't 'feeling well' so he took time off from his co duties.

  that week he packed his suitcase, told his wife he can't do it anymore and he's leaving, leaves her the car and the house and went to live in a small apartment, bought a small car and a week later got a decent job.. this was very recent so not everybody within the org has heard yet what happened..

  got this email from my sister today.

  there is a lot of back story, and this isn't a surprise.

  it will be interesting to see how it affects the rest of the family, if they hear about it or not.

  A Greek JW serves 15? yrs in prison for his neutrality position.

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i`m thinking back to the 1960`s/70s of a watchtower article who described a greek brother who was imprisoned for refusing military conscription service and was sentenced to 5 yrs imprionment by the govt.at the end of his confinement he was again ordered to serve in the military,which he declined and was sentenced to another 5 yrs in prison ,i think this occured one more time.

  ( at that time their was no way you did alternative service ) of course he was hailed as a faithful brother who wouldn`t compromise his beleifs.of course their were probably many more people who went through an experience like this.is their anybody on the board who can verify,or enlighten us to this experience?

  i would like to know what happened to the poor buggers who sacrificed their lives in this way.. smiddy.
