  Question about the fade

  by The Big Machine in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know there are a lot of threads on here about fading and i've read a lot of them, but i have a question that i haven't found the answer to yet.. what would happen if you move to a new congregation (or at least tell your old congregation that you are moving and to have your records moved), and you don't go to any meetings?

  i see lots of the fading strategies say to go to some meetings and show your face until your name is announced.

  what exactly happens if you don't go to meetings in the new congregation?.

  i was raised in it---- from about 10 years old-----of course it was the only true religion--it just was--coz we were in it. then--one day--i stopped to think.

  Family Reuinion and Being Disfellowshipped (sorry...but it's long)

  by babygirl30 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it has been a long looong time since i posted on here, but never ceased reading all the posts and keeping up on the changes that have been going on!

  but it just seems that now i have a need to get something off my chest, and this is the one place that will most definitely understand the topic at hand.

  i have been disfellowshipped for about 8yrs now, and have dealt with the 'consequences' of that decision: all my so-called friends in the org left and i was also abandoned by my own family.

  Who oversees the money for the WT?

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  when the wt sells property for a billion dollars profit, who decides what that money is going to be used for?.

  when all the money comes in from all the kingdom halls bank accounts worldwide, did all that money go into one big account and who has authority to spend it and cut some checks to whoever?

  when all the monthly donations come in to the watchtower headquarters, who decides distribution, and to who?

  Just two weeks in our new home and the knock at the door happens!!

  by truthseekeriam in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just relaxing with my morning coffee enjoying looking at the pictures fipper shared of the camping trip when the dreaded knock came.

  of course the dogs beat me to the door followed by my daughter trying to catch them, she looks through the giant peep hole and waves me away saying "its them.

  " i almost just walked away from the door when i saw the sweet face of a 5/6 year old little boy with his mom and dad and couldn't resist talking to them.. i opened the door and smiled and said jehovah's witnesses?

  JWs With A Financial Interest In The Org

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  through personal experiences which i'd rather not relate because it would give away my identity i have come to a realization.

  many brothers own businesses that a greatly supported by witness activities.

  when local congregations need some service they will prefer to do business with a jw.

  oooooooooooooooooohh i get it now-----and i thought it was all just the usual good old armageddon / resurrection / new world / everlasting life bolllocks that my old dad and mum bought into.

  so it really is just a money making scam for those in the know----ripping off and stitching up the rank and file.

  i ought to get back in quick--ive got a few ideas that should see me right.
