Were you ever embarrassed or somewhat ashamed when the WT patted themselves on the back in their own articles?
by miseryloveselders ini was browsing through the december 2010 awake, and noticed an article on the earthquake that happened in haiti earlier this year.
it didn't take long for the article to disturb me.
the third paragraph initiated the sanctimonious tone that is present througout the article.

Kingdom Hall Rebuild on the Cheap .... Slave Labour!
by letsslatejws inmy father in law visited us today full of the joys of spring... he was excited to declare that he has been doing security on the kingdom hall quick build.
he has been left alone in a portacabin / caravan on duty with a sister between the hours of 12 midnight until 6 am in the morning !!!.
i think it is disgusting that a 72 year old man is being used like this... how they can expect him to be of any good in seeing off teenage thugs is beyond me.

The elders of the '80s are retiring
by truthseeker ini was catching up on news with a friend of mine from my old hall - a few of the elders have stepped down and some have retired.. these are men who were in their 30's during the 1980's when i was very young - now they are retiring or facing retirement.. i sometimes wonder how they feel after working all those years only to wake up and realize that their working lives are over.. do they ask themselves: what's happened?
where's armaggedon?
the day of reckoning has come - the elders who were 30 in 1980 are now 60 years old.
