That is truly amazing Randy and thanks so much for sharing. After I read your post I linked to the post on Smoking and the affilation with the the Philip Morris comp, Wow that was a lot of reading. Well should it suprise us that the WTBTS is once again showing its true self. I feel so sad for those families that were so badly affected by the ruling of the Governing Body. I wonder how many of them GB voted against this enforced decsion. Yes how could they have families lives so shattered. To the point where families investments are taken from them. Everything is always so hush hush and like you said meetings with CO, and DO and the organization itself are eager to protect themselves at the cost of destroying peoples lively hoods. The mere fact they refuse to be recorded for fear of reprecutions. They don't want law suits. Mind you I wonder if any of the Tabbacco Farmers ever sued the WTS for their livlihood. Its all well and dandy for them to do what ever they want and keep it secret until someone brave enough like Barbara Anderson exposes their inner corruption and deceit.You are right they have much to explain to God when judgement comes. Yes their constant flip flop ways have wreaked havoc with the lives of wonderful loving people. I chocked when I learned of their association with deadly fossil fuels, their constant meddling in of peoples lives and their blatant disregard for human life by being associated also with the Philip Morris Company. Who are they trying to fool? Do they think all JWs' where blinders? They never learn, like the UN deception. The blood issue in Bulgaria, the lives of thousands of witnesses lost in Malawi, while Mexico was free of persection and people lives where fine. But they gave briberies to officals and to the GB that was fine. How do they justify this with Christ. Christ would never approve of their ways. They have completely and utterly disregarded the word of God for their own ways rules and man made regualtions. This person and all persons should be outraged by the conduct of the WTS.Orangefatcat
