  One Day assembly in Arizona- $17,000 !!

  by AndDontCallMeShirley in

  i heard from a reliable source that a one-day assembly in arizona last weekend had a "cost" to the publishers of $17,000.. predictably, the elders were nice enough to obligate the attendees to a $6,000 donation to wt before the assembly "costs" (i.e.

  "rent/extortion) were even met.

  $11,000 rent plus $6000 in extra "donations".

  leaving_quietly, why do the bethels need indoor swimming pools, tennis courts, vollyball sandpits, horseshoe pits, mini golf courses, outdoor pizza ovens made out of marble and stone and can do pizzas under thirty seconds, own their own zambonee to clear the ice for iceskating, their own workout gyms and the list goes on and on.

  When you go on a bethel tour, this is what the tourists don't see nor the rest of the world. Yet, don't you dare go out and own any of these material gains. You are to remain poor and send all your money to JW.Org so they can have it all.

  we were on the phone to our german friends when someone came to their door and interrupted our call.

  a few minutes later our friends called back to tell us we were right, it was jw's.

  he told them he was dismembered meaning disfellowshipped.

He told them he was dismembered meaning disfellowshipped. They told him he could always come back and gave him some magazines. They asked for his name and he gives them my husbands name. No ipad but a warm greeting telling them they are sharing the good news of the kingdom and how would he like to be a part of it.

  But then we thought dismembered is way better of a name than disfellowshipped. We're cut off from the rest of family members and friends and are treated as though we are dead. Does this religion remind you of anyone?????

  Right now they believe it's ok to celebrate the birth of Jesus "invisibly" because they know the exact date he came(a date,1914, they made up) but it's not ok or allowed to celebrate his birth when he came physically and where everyone saw him. Yet, "the good news" was declared for both occasions. Guess which one of those occasions were biblical. Not the invisible one.(1914 birth of a kingdom rule)

  So, does that mean there are no sister parts where everyone would doze off while they would do their gabbing. Can't remember what number talk that was.

  Fenton is a liar!!!!! We tried to leave quietly even all the while some guy who was breaking the law over and over was being covered up by these elders. We even put no trespassing signs up on the property so they wouldn't come in but instead they sat for three and a half hours outside our gates until we were ready to leave. The one elders grandmother had just passed away that morning but he still felt stalking us was more important. Even asked the Co to disfellowship me and they wouldn't because that would have meant I could appeal it and have other elders from others halls listen in to this nightmare. This is a cult for sure with comments that are lies. What a bunch of snakes and liars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Hey, we could make a board game out of these idiots and call it Snakes & Liars instead of Snakes $ Ladders)

  No links but just the two families who had stated this from the one hall we were in and both within a couple of years apart and the other area which is an hour away, that mother who died was a relative to friends of ours. When you actually see these things happening in your own hall, there is no doubt this is an evil cult.

  Trust me, if I had links they would be on here. I had a brother who was elleven who had died because he needed a blood transfusion. He had a couple of stairs to go and fell hitting his head on the cement floor. It happened right in front of my mother and myself:( How would she feel if she even knew about the blood fractions now. All of this has sickened me to no end.

  JW.Org should pay for all these lives they have messed up. And they say they are our shepherds looking out for our souls. Then I tell you what, look out for souls but leave the flesh part up to the individual and what they do with it. That's only if you want to remain in this dreadful cult.

  Question for SloppyJoe2: Then you tell me why when there were two people needing blood transfusions(two years ago) in a hall over here, the hospital liason committee elder told both families to just give them blood and not to say anything to anyone about it. The patients were a new born baby and a mother.

  Yet an hour away in a neighboring congregation, a mother had given birth and needed blood(which was already public) and they let her die. There was no favortism there. I think more and more you will see and hear of these type of stories because the society doesn't want their names attatched to what's going on in the congregations. They just want their donations and ownership of all the kingdom halls. Hence, you will see more elder idiots taking it upon themselves to be a law to other brothers and sisters lives. They will have to stand on their own with out the society's help if reported.

  And if it's gone public then you will see all the elders and society stand far far away from that victim saying too bad too bad.

  Looks like the evil slave is just a warning for now but if those sluggish door to door tablet pushers don't pick up pace in their ministry then, that evil slave will become them in a few years. It will be as though they are apostates if they don't up their hours. I see some more changes coming for those poor sluggish lazy publishers.

  i've heard about his bombastic, overly patronising, cartoon-ish delivery before, but i'd never actually seen it...until now.

  and i should add, this religion bears little to no relation to the one i left 6 years ago.. .

  I sent the link to my seventy year old sister who special pioneered and pioneered for over fifty-five years and although she will not write me or talk to me she finally responded with where did you find this and she loved it ever so so much.

  You got to be kidding me. I thought she had more brains than that. That totally surprised me. Oh well, at least I finally got to hear from her. I guess I will need to send her more videos but not of that sort. Sheesh!

  At 53 seconds he flips his flimsy plastic bible open and you see the scripture he has to read highlighted in yellow. There are quite a few religions that frown on any writing or highlighting in bibles and this mouth full of marbles makes sure he offends those ones. And I just knew they would have a music video put on.
