    More wheedling for money?

    Good grief, it's getting tiresome.

    I wonder if the "executive from a large company" worked for MAN Roland printing presses and was buttering up what was then a good customer?

    Wish I could give 100 thumbs up votes for that comment. I may have to be PIMO for the time, but I do everything I can whenever these begging articles come up to make it plain what I think of their money grubbing.

    Selfish people are like hedgehogs. Oh how I miss the depth of intellectual discussion I left behind in that religion.

    Makes me want to go "educate" myself (sarcasm intended) by reading an Awake! article on hedgehogs (I'm sure there's on out there somewhere).

    Whenever these money articles come up, it always reminds me of the wise words of George Carlin:

    “Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!

    But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!”

    Why is that,? The ALMIGHTY GOD of the UNIVERSE needs money that is produced by imperfect humans on earth to further his will.?

    Am I missing something here ?.

    Maybe more importantly are believers in GOD missing something here ?

    Don`t all religions cry out for money ,more money to carry out their agendas ?

    If their was in fact an ALMIGHTY GOD, CREATOR of the UNIVERSE then why is he/she relying on money from imperfect humans to fund his purpose.?

    There spin on that is because it gives an opportunity for JWs to show their appreciation to Jehovah.

    The WTS's pushing of its published literature with its bullshit doctrines continues.

    Third world countries dont know of the WTS bullshit doctrines and its corrupt commercialization of the WTS's literature and it might said that the GB leaders probably know that.

    It all boils down to, "You must do more for the organization."

    A.There spin on that is because it gives an opportunity for JWs to show their appreciation to Jehovah.

    MY spin on THEIR spin would be ok, fine, lets show our appreciation to the God of all the gold and silver (since it's his already) - BY giving ONE penny, or cent, as a TOLKEN of our appreciation!
