for the ladies
by sspo indid all of you "sisters" when you were single and growing up in the congregation .
always dream about marrying a bethelite or encouraged to marry one.
since they were viewed as "gods".. i remember many years ago single sisters constantly took trips to bethel with the hope .

did you ever get cheated
by sspo ini have bought and sold and refinanced homes for over 25 years and never had any problem at all using " worldly people" and their businesses.. the only time i tried to use a brother ( an elder ) it was a big fiasco.. everything went wrong and i threatned to turn him in to the authority because of his cheating and lying and unethical way of doing business.. luckily i caught it before the closing and did not go thru with it but at least 5 other families got screwed out of 1000's , money that was needed badly.. .
he is still serving as an elder .
did you have similar experience and get to a point that you did not want to use the brothers anymore?.

Elders and shepherding calls
by sspo infor all the years you were in the borg, i was wondering how many of you received a friendly shepherding call from the elders?
.
that was part of their responsibility as elders but in over 30 years i never received one and i found that was the case with many in the cong.. did you regularly receive a visit?

Tonight's service meeting
by sspo inwhat a load of crap- 10 min.
asking for more contributions in order to build more kh and reminded everyone not only to give cash but don't forget about leaving something for them in your will.. 25 min.
on the proper use of blood which is also a joke.. the km mentioned you cannot take the four components of blood individually in your body but every component was broken into smaller fractions which is up to you to make a decision to accept or reject.. the common jw does not know their left from their right in making decisions about the dozens of fractions of blood but they will obey blindly and not ask a question because that would be considered apostasy.. .
