Hey Oompa. I'm very sorry to know you're going

through all of this. But blaming it on the WT and

then drowning yourself in gin isn't going to do you

any good. It just reasserts the WT misinformation

that people who break away end up in bad lives.

Live long and well. Enjoy life. Be a good friend and

friends will flock to you. Forget the hypocrisy and the

stupidity of following this narcisistic organization. You've

got your eyes open, don't wink them with booze. Pray!

That's right, until you figure out there's something your

little poor Oompa frame of mind and body can't fight

against... And that's big bad alcohol, the Gin isn't your

friend. Mine used to be Jack, yeah Jack Daniels and his

buddy Johnny Walker would show up once in a while

if there was an open bottle in my Dad's liquor cabinet.

And I missed them for a while... for quite a while... But

not anymore.

Get yourself into a 12 step program. They'll help you.

It will seem like another mind controlling thing for "a

while" but it will get you to see how you're not alone.

Do you see a counsellor? Get someone to give you

some professional advice... Your doctor telling you to

lay off the Gin doesn't sound professionally helpful

enough. You need help. Until then it just keeps getting

worse. You need to want the help Oompa. If you don't

you'll just make your marriage suffer all the more and

waste what could be a beautiful life now with your

pretty wife. Like the Bible says, let her breasts intoxicate

you instead. Be good to her and don't be a sad drunk!

You're better than that Oompa, and we all know it.

With a big ((hug))).

Isn't the CO school ongoing right now in Patterson?.... reported by Iloowy on JWS?

at some undisclosed location on the New Order campus.

Watchtower negotiates with Town of Ramapo over taxes

Source? I've never seen anything on the Governing Body moving to Patterson.

That's a done deal already.

http://www.christianwitnesses.com/id98.html

The Governing Body over Jehovah's Witnesses will be moving in from what are now "relatively modest" apartments at Brooklyn where they also get all free services such as maids, cooks and chefs, barber, medical, doctor and nursing care, all-expenses-paid travel etc. They will be getting the same perks but with the additional of sumptuous, luxorious, even paradise-like quarters. They can go to an assembly, convention or international assembly, fly to visit Watchtower facilities in Hawaii or Alaska. While there get wined and dined by adoring Jehovah's Witnesses.

If not wanting to go far afield, they can take off weekends to lodge at various homes of friends along the lakes in upstate New York etc. Joan Cetnar worked at Bethel during the Nathan Knorr administration and tells of when he used to visit and relax at her parents' home a ways from metro New York. The Watchtower President previous to Knorr was Judge Joseph F. Rutherford who had extra houses, or rather, mansions in California. It would be interesting to research how many others on the Governing Body now have and in the past have had extra homes in metro NYC and elsewhere, wouldn't you agree?

Some of the Watchtower's top level attorneys live on the backroads not far from Patterson Educational Central but located where they are not easily seen. Google.com has satellite photos that show either the houses or adjoining houses. They depict large houses with facilities such as swimming pools. Many say the attorneys run the show for Watchtower these days, especially given their scramble to re-structure the organization to protect its up to a billion dollars a year, its fancy houses and huge numerous buildings, vehicles ranging from an airplane in Alaska to cars for its big-wigs, etc. President Don A. Adams father was an attorney. Rutherford had been an attorney and on a few occasions substituted as a circuit judge.

Wanted: JW apologist to explain how the GB gets its messeges from Jesus the King

by Mad Dawg in

cattails

There was a WT, from January 2008 I believe, that strongly suggested that resurrected 20th century "anointed ones" were "involved in the transmission of divine revelations today" or some such.

Judas Priest! Can you imagine the GB

currently overseen by the likes of Rutherford

and Freddy Franz from above! Whatta fiasco.
