We are imperfect
by HereIgo ini can't tell you how many times i have heard this while growing up as a witness.

Why the WTS is selling their assets
by Amazing inthe recent post by randy watters is very good regarding the watchtower selling assets.
some posters suggested that maybe they were doing this because the clean-up of asbestos is too expensive, making a sale more rational.. .
in the usa, any building containing asbestos insulation must be dealt with by the seller of a property.
