  According to the official figures in this post 2 years ago - https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/217902/uk-congregations-jehovahs-witnesses?page=4 - the Scottish congregations had a combined total of just over £1.845m in their bank accounts.

  I wonder how much of that money was siphoned off by the org when their "recommendation" to congregations to hand over their surplus cash was issued. Isn't it tragic that all that money would barely cover the court's fine of $4000 per day which the cult has amassed so far in the Padron case.

  They've got a new video out about their fancy buildings/offices in Indonesia. They've got a number of remote translation offices there as well. There must be hundreds of remote translation offices worldwide.

  No, and the ones I know are too scared/dumb/brainwashed to ask.

  I asked my mother if it bothers her that her donations are paying lawsuits defending their child abuse policies. She said "no, it's what Jehovah wants. It says so."

  Exactly where does Jehovah say so? The Borg says so and they are not God but as we have seen the blind followers can't separate the organization from God. They see them as one and the same.
