I think many do not donate at all and would be shocked at the initial request but would quickly get over it. The gb would throw a little razzle dazzle ‘old testament principle’, mix in a little random quote or two from paul and boom! They would roll with it. Also when ive mentioned this (i believe its coming) ive said they wont call it a tithe specifically but thats what it will be.. hell the kh perpetual mortgage scam is a form of tithe as it is.

Mac, i am on record saying the rank and file would take a tithe and never blink once.
Shunning however.... that would signal their demise. Not because the rank and file would care but because without the hammer of shunning the cult falls apart.

Why the JW org should fail.
by Half banana indr margaret t singer, a professor of psychology at berkeley university california has studied the experiences of 700 cult members.
''consciously and manipulatively, leaders and their trainers exert a systematic social influence that can produce great behavioral changes,'' said dr. singer.. .
one of the ways the jw organisation exerts so much influence over its members is because it has created a culture sustained by constant propaganda, which polices itself according to how the leadership has moulded it.

SHOULD fail or will fail...? Big difference. On “should” fail, nobody will argue that. On WILL fail...? That will be argued.

Chemtrails, Seeing is believing.
by pedal power inbefore i begin, i want you to know i understand the difference between chemtrails and contrails, so lets leave those discussions behind, chemtrails exist.. what is the purpose of chemtrails ?
if it was to artificially create clouds, why come to edinburgh ?
for any of you who are unaware, 90% of the time its cloudy and rainy, so creating cloud cover, is a joke.

"Have it your way then." --God of the Bible
Well, you used quotation marks and cited the speaker as “god of the bible”. Since you didnt have a scripture reference cited and its not a statment ive ever read in the bible im left with the impression that indeed you were speaking on behalf of the god of the bible. Could you clarify then, the quotation marks and the citation “god of the bible”?

George Lucas tinkering with Star Wars films
by LoveUniHateExams injust thought i'd start a thread about lucas revisiting star wars films and making new edits - for better or for worse.. first off, let me say that george lucas has a tremendous imagination and star wars (1977), also known as episode 4: a new hope, and the empire strikes back (1980) - episode 5 in the franchise - are two of my favourite films.
.
as progress has been made in special effects, including the development of cgi, it makes sense for lucas to go back and retouch the spaceships, laser blasts and light sabres, improving what was 70s and 80s effects.. but i feel that lucas' tinkering has been a mixed bag - some have been bad choices, some unnecessary and others have been good.. what do you think ... .

I watched the video citing ten changes that were good... i agreed with them all. I didnt wholesale dislike them all. A few were annoying (like the rotj band scene) but for the most part they were good... except han shooting first.
