Don't know if this has been posted before... in France JWs can contribute online from this site:

...looks like Internet is not that bad after all.

Thanks for posting this. Looks like they are operating as a "cultural organization" in France and are more than willing to accept online donations. I hope French speaking people surf the net to find the real truth first, before they decide to contribute to this sick cult operating under the veil of "cultural organization."

So is this a way of trying to circumvent the tax laws in France, which (as I understand it) were applied to the JWs to their consternation? Where is this money going - to England? to New York? I wonder what the legal issues are - can the French government claim that since these are "French" contributions they are subject to the tax laws of France?

Has anyone checked to see if this kind of internet contribution is available at other WT websites? It may be standard procedure, just part of the standard hypocricy of WT practice.
