most of us went back to bethel, thinking we wanted to make it our life long career......what better place to be right before 1975?.............that dream ended for the vast majority after just few months there, when they found out that something was very wrong.
other wise why would anyone want to leave a spiritual paradice?....
with only 2-5% staying after there 4 year commitment, and a very big percentage leaving before there time was even up.
What is BTTD?

Great thread...
I was off the board in July when you posted this.
Blessing to you my friend. and your family...
NB
they say love is what makes the world go around.............and at bethel, us "new boys" would say..... "if god created anything better then sex...............he kept it for himself!".
how would we know?...............most of us never had it........didn't make any difference...........we talked about it...........fantasied about it...........dreamt about it..........i' m sure because we could't have it.
that is why we gloryried it so much..... hay!
Last time to get these out of the bone yard...
tell me the story behind the picture.... why is mr flipper mr flipper?
how much do you look like zappa, jk666?
and gopher - are you really a little old man?
Well since you asked...here goes...
A "New Boy" is what they call the newbies at Bethel....The guys that just didn't know what was really going on.....you know the dumb shits...but, no one stays dumb forever...in fact you find out even at Bethel that...
If it looks like "shit" and smells like "shit" and taste like "shit"...When the light blub flashes on over your head....Then you my friend are no longer a "new boy"
Which we have all been....No?
My avatar is me in a WW II German Luffwaffe uniform....
After leaving the borg I got into Medaphsical studies...I know believe in reincarnation...and know for a fact I was a Nazis poliot in W W II. (among other things)
Hay you asked...
i've been warned.
i keep saying little things to my husband, and he clearly won't budge any more then he already has.
i just want him to see the truth.
Heres another thing you can do...
In a nonconfrontational way ask him, who it was that brought this religion to him. Was it his parents or someone else?
Ask him, if he thinks these are happy people?
Most the time, people who who are attracted to the "Tooth" are sad and depressed people who want God to kill 6 billion people...so the can "be happy" in some future time.
just a thought
