LMAO! Did anyone catch the sausage links falling on the floor and the dim wit picking them back up as though it were common procedure. He couldn't even hang them right. Now think of a butcher who apprenticed in germany and got his papers just to have someone like this guy with no training tell him what to do. Don't miss those days at all!!!!

Where we are in southern Ontario, we have OHIP which pays for your doctors visits as well as your hospitals I tend to get sick often needing med therefore we have insurance which cost me $1,500.00 per year. My sister who has been single all her life is in Quebec and she can only get a welfare every month of $600.00 per month. She chooses to live in a two room (bathroom and then tiny living/bedroom,kitchen) She has no medical plan.
As far as a retirement plan, I've never heard of anything of the sorts. You work, you invest all on your own. We will get an old age pay out at sixty-five but it's not much.

Two years ago before we left, the bethel was housing seven hundred brothers and sisters. I doesn't surprise me since there were many who were being shuffled around into house cleaning, green house and maintenance ect,,,
You hardly saw any elderly ones there(on the floor) when bringing ones through on tours. It was all young energetic ones that gave the place a feel of "enthusiasm" but only to those that didn't know better.

i don't wish to debate about their beliefs when together.
they can remain jws for all i care.

I have a sister who is 70 and all I asked was how can the holy spirit keep making mistakes and changing their doctrines. How can that be a helper directing us. She freaked out over the phone first admitting it was her fault for not remembering everything and that I was shaking her faith. She agrees it's rotten in her hall and every hall she's been in but she will wait on Jehovah. I haven't heard from her since and she does not email me.
This poor woman lives all alone living off of welfare which is $600.00 per month. Never married and gave her whole life as a special pioneer/pioneer to this filthy cult. Her health is really bad yet she doesn't realize that it will be us that looks after her when her elders tell her she's not their problem. She still accepts what ever we give her and is very thankful but on the other hand when there is a reno, there she is making trays of cabbage rolls and butter tarts for them which she cannot afford.
For sure it's a cult!!!!! I hope that you will have some time left with them when it's time for the org to dump them on to who ever will look after them and hopefully it will be you:) Being patient is all you can do for now.
(((HUGS)))

I kept the info that someone posted here and it's in the elders manualHere is something the Elders won’t tell you.According to the Elders rule book (Shepherd the Flock of God), you cannot be disfellowshipped for associating with a disfellowshipped person as long as you are not having “spiritual association or openly criticizing the disfellowshipping decision”.
Here is what it says in Chapter 10 of the “Shepherd the Flock of God” book:
“If members of the congregation are known to have undue association with disfellowshipped or disassociated relatives who are not in the household, elders should counsel and reason with those members of the congregation from the Scriptures. Review with them information from the “God’s Love” book, pages 207-208; The Watchtower of April 15, 1988, pages 26-30; or the article “Display Christian Loyalty When a Relative Is Disfellowshipped” in the August 2002 Our Kingdom Ministry. If it is clear that a Christian is violating the spirit of the disfellowshipping decree in this regard and does not respond to counsel, it may be that he would not qualify for congregation privileges, which require one to be exemplary. He would not be dealt with judicially unless there is persistent spiritual association or he openly criticizes the disfellowshipping decision.” – (2010 – Shepherd the Flock of God, Chapter 10, Page 116) on page 116 of chapter 10. -

Local Design/Construction Department
There's a letter that went out stating an upcoming meeting on what this new department at bethel is all about. Maybe someone can post it. More skinning of the sheep before their slaughter. I wish they would wake up. So sad.

I enjoy the way he writes but listening to him was even better. When they were talking about how the cult will use the same pictures but change their stories from time to time made me think of this one story where it was about this woman who left her jewish faith. Then, a year later or so, there's that same face but with a different story. I had told my husband it was the same woman and he said no way, why would the society use her twice on two different stories.
The blood issue hit me hard for I had a brother that needed a blood transfusion at around 11/12 years of age, and my parents let him die. He died at sick childrens hospital in Toronto. My mother was never the same and ten years later, she took a bottle of pain pills right before her surgery and died. She had a massive heart attack coming out of her recovery. She had died on the same day that my brother, Timothy-Paul had died ten years previously.

Thanks for the chuckle, Atlantis. I liked the one where if there are no brothers that the sister would wear a head covering and be seated. Oh, and if a young baptized brother shows up to the group that the elders will decide if he's old enough to take the group. If not, then the sister takes the group and if the elders feel he can give a prayer, then he's allowed. Is this this the outcome of baptizing children too young????If they are not sure of him taking the group or even saying a prayer then what in the hell questions did the elders go over with him just before he got baptized??? -

VOW OF OBEDIENCE AND POVERTY
by Coded Logic ini didn't know the wtbts had an order.
anyone ever heard of the "order of full time servants" aka "the order" within the jehovah's witnesses?.
(below is a legal document from the wtbts).

Their meaning of vow of poverty and materialistic things equals indoor swimming pools, outdoor pizza ovens, out door gazebos, tennis courts, paved walking trails, outdoor smoke house, vollyball sandpits, horseshoe pits, mini golf courses, zambonie for their ice rinks, a complete gym work out room, esspresso machine for their meals, basketball court, beauty salon, laundry mat, music room, and the list goes on and on and on. And this is part of the tour they don't show the public. Forgot to include their friendly guard dogs and their food as well as their cats with their cat toys. Do any of you own all these? No, we just have to pay for it so they can have it on top of working and paying for our own bills at home.
Hypocrites!

If the cult for one second thought of their followers knowing times are tough and money is tight for many, why wouldn't they build on additions to their halls without having to sell and start over? Maybe add on a solarium if they wanted it to look fancy. It's all about $$$$$$$$$. No need to rebuild a whole entire kingdom hall just to draw in one or two stragglers off the street.
