The real reason for the new donation arrangement?
by redvip2000 inyesterday i was having a beer with a friend of mine who happens to be an accountant, and we began discussing this ridiculous arrangement that the watchtower has put in place.
after giving him the backstory of how the watchtower has been lending money to the local congregations and charging interest, he simply could not believe they had been doing that.. he then offered an explanation which really made sense to me.
he said that in reality what the watchtower society has been doing is actually not legal in light of their tax-exempt status.

I know most of you are out. But Im still in and on the fence." remember who owns the fence?"
Shunning needs to be tempered. Shunn the serious wrong doers. Like pedophiles, rapists, murderers. ect... And let it be your dicission how much contact you have. Don't shunn your children or parrents.
except Evolution as the fact that it is. And stop embarising us with dumb publications on why its still just a theory.
Gives us a break on too many conventions. How about a one day once a year?
Man up and let people use blood if it will save their life. I know you will have to eat alot of crow, but are not peoples lives worth it?
I'm sorry, I realise this list will go on for ever. Im getting a headache.

I don't agree with this new arangement. But I don't see the org. getting rich. I don't see the gov B driving Bentleys and building mansions. Doesn't the money get used to build halls and help the brothers? Don't get me wrong, I'm here because I'm not happy with things. venting.

Some of my musings. The last time the DO was at our hall he talked about the borians. The ones who checked the scriptures carefuly to see if these things were so. He said a mature christian does not need to do this. Only babes in the truth do this. The last time out CO was at our hall he said, The governing body gets their stuff from Christ, and then passes it on to the Co. Then he passes it on to the Elders. So when an Elder tells you somthing, it's the same as Jesus Christ telling you. I thought, what if an Elder tells an under age girl or boy to remove some clothing? REmember Jesus is speaking. Give me a break. That kind of talk ticks me off! venting.

If You Could Tell A Jehovah's Witness One Thing~~~What Would It Be?
by minimus ini really would just like to ask them if they believe everything they hear on the platform or read in a magazine.
they seriously look like cultists.
it is embarrassing..

Remove yourself from inside the box, and think from the outside. Then see if what you belive holds up.
I like what faithful witness said. That says it all. Why can't things be transparent? When I went to my first distric convention the apostates " so called" were handing out info. I asked the brother that was studing with me what were in those tracs? He told me those people got DF for wrong doing. Now they are mad so they make up lies about us. I said oh! Many years later one of my bible studies was given some literture. I had to go through it with him. I was really surprised what I read! It wasn't lies. venting.

I remember one time placing the creation book with an older wealthy jewish man. When I returned he had some very good rebutels about the book. He new a thing or two about science. I remember being confused. I thought that book was a masterpiece. I told one of the Elders in my hall about what the man said about the book. The elder told me this man must be an apostate. I thought, what a dumb thing to say. Venting
