I'd like to see Watchtower hammered by the Charity Commission due to revelations of its mental cruelty to members (e.g. disfellowshippings, shunning, breaking up of families, etc.) and its protection of paedophiles. I believe its charity status is its achilles heal. Watchtower espouses that it helps people by its members going door to door with the Bible message. If the truth of the matter was really uncovered by the Charity Commission the Org. would lose its charity status AND HAVE TO PAY TAXES!!!!!!! There would be plenty of back-dating taxes to recover, also!! This would fatally cripple the Org.
Every complaint to the Charity Commission HAS to be looked at! I've complained twice and both times a hearing was had. OK, slimy Watchtower got away with it - for now! However, the more people who complain to the commission about Watchtower's lies, its scandals and how people are being seriously affected the better. Eventually, the commission would do some serious investigating - and then, BINGO!

WHAT THEIR ADDRESS?

That's a good point Dansk!!! I reckon the only way they keep their 'charity' status is by fabricating meaningless preaching hours....that is why they're collected, to justify their existence.

Ian, that's a good idea, one that we had never thought of. We'll be joining in the fun now though, dedpoet is working on it as I type (he's the brainy one lol). Thanks for that.

Ian, I agree, the way to hurt the WT is money. If the authorities got enough enquiries about their charitable status, im sure they would investigate. Especially if people explained how they prey on vulnerable people.

Actually (thinking about it), it seems a tad (morally) wrong that 'God's Earthly Organisation' SHOULD be a charity. It should be self-supporting if it is to be 'apart' from the World. The Bible teaches, give unto Caeser..
