On a more lighter note.
Social networking is totally ok.
Playing wordly music by rap artists in the KH and Bethel is totally acceptable.
Having kingdom hall parties and putting them on you tube not a problem either.
cedars mentions it in his lasted video on youtube.
lett says that all the money that was made from selling the sites in new york city is all going to pay for warwick.
as cedars points out that according to independent sources they sold the properties for over a billion dollars.
so there's an indoctrination session tomorrow......any tips for getting through with my sanity intact?
as the title eludes, i have been blocked from a website, the cheek of it.
what site you may ask?
i was blocked from a active jwforum, i haven't even posted any comments yet haha!
in the video, they repeatedly talk about these big ugly misunderstandings that have taken place between the circuit overseers and the elders,, at least partially, leading to their current money problems fiasco.. if the governing body were intentionally lying, wouldn't they lie to make themselves and their elders look better, instead of worse?.
what would the motive be for them to tell everyone about these big misunderstandings?.
Like I've said in other threads here. The GB should of (at the very least) been more clearer in how the new funding arrangement was going to work. By telling the R&F that the loans had been cancelled when in fact they hadn't been has given the impression that their financial situation is stable. I believe at the moment Wt is a flush with money. This is not the issue but long term solvency is, and i believe this is what the money is been used for.
when you look at the society's literature, it is pretty comical to see how important they believed they were.
it seems to be not as bad under the new regime but they certainly believe they are a special people.
lol
when the rnwt was released, we were invited to go to the local assembly hall.. there was a sister right next to me and she started bragging that it was her 8th year in an annual meeting.
(typical thing, all spiritual).
when was time to sing, i listened to her beautiful voice.
i had a couple of elders come visit me about an hour ago.
they wanted to inform me that a brother who was well known throughout the circuit had died.
(i actually knew about it but did not go to the funeral) he was about to hit 90 years old, missed it by a few weeks.
