    In Conn. the planning and zoning committee denied the local JWs a new KH. Oh boo hoo.

    Seems like one of those 3/5th rulings that used to govern our lives are now governing thiers. Ironic. the ruling against them was actually with more votes for, but still not enough to settle the accounts. Intresting verdict.

    Good. The last thing we need is more Kingdumb Hells. That seems to be the only excitement they have--to have a new building to meet in. Seems to draw more people in for the novelty of the building, but there is no substance to what they have to offer.

    I hope this refusal becomes widespread. I don't want every other building in my town or city to be a Kingdumb Hell. Besides, I wonder what they are going to do when members leave or stop donating, and the place gets foreclosed on. That's the kind of thread I like seeing--when the Kingdumb Hells get foreclosed on because, when they voted on it there were close to 100 in attendance but the attendance drops into the teens with donations dropping into the $100 and less per month range.

    The less halls there are the better imo. Just another way to have the society accumulate more wealth, get volunteers to do the work free loan them the money to pay for the property, materials, fees, etc. And them charge them interest on money that has been donated just for that. What a scam. Hope they don't get on appeal either. the hell with them.

    300 seats with only 75 parking spaces? Does every JW family have 2 kids? or will people car pool?

    That is persecution!!!

    What would be persecution would be allowing the Kingdom Hall to be built!

    That would be persecution of the entire neighborhood!
