  There is NO annual service report in the Janaury 1st WT

  by truthseeker in

  well, i have confirmed rumors that have gone around about there being no annual service report for the january 1st, 2005 issue.. .

  it seems, for reasons unknown, that the watchtower has ended another decades long tradition.

  in the second study article for the january 1st, 2005 watchtower, entitled, "trained to give a thorough witness," paragraph 24 reads: .

  I was talking to a dub about it, and he thinks it is because of the way the Society now ships the literature. Since it takes extra time to ship the literature to the assembly halls, then a brother from each hall has to go pick up the literature, and distribute it to the congregation, that the Society has been making up the lag in time by printing the magazines earlier, thus the delay from January 1 to February 1. Does that make any sense?

  Bonnie_Clyde, It may not be correct, but it is consistant with the WTS pushing the blame for everything on to someone/something else. Triple A

  DY's Letter of Disassociation... Just Dreaming For Now.

  by Doubtfully Yours in

  dear soon-to-be ex-friends:.

  i hereby wholeheartedly and by my own free will request to have all records which indicate my current association with the jehovah's witnesses and it's legal entity, the watchtower bible and tract society, deleted at this time.. the extremelly long time i endured while in your company has been wonderful at times and not so much at others, just like any experience in this great life.. i've looked forward to this time for so long, in which i won't feel forced to attend all those repetitive and boring weekly meetings, add to that the exhausting and expensive assemblies, the memorial, all the time-wasting preaching activities, plus the 'expected' socializing among members.

  it's all so enslaving to me!

  seeitallclearlynow, does your son know if Serena and/or Venus are baptisted? I would think that it is common knowledge as to who is or is not in the church (sorry Serena's words) congregation. Triple A

  Could WBTS be forced to pay tax in America?

  by Gadget in

  in another thread link said: .

  i am not well versed in u.s. tax laws but it is my understanding that even in the u.s.anyone making loans on which interest is charged is considered to be operating a taxable business.

  in the u.k. the societies loans are interest free but they take control of the building once the loan has been completely repaid.

  Clergy don't pay income tax or sales taxes in the US??

  Most Clergy that I have know pay taxes on their income and have to do tax planning like the rest of us. Their income is no more tax free, than ours. We do not have a parsonage and our pastor pays his own mortgage out of his pay.

  Cicatrix the URLs above say that she at one time claimed to be a Jehovah's Witness. I have not found where she is baptised, prehaps one of her elders will post here as to what her current status is and if she ever gave herself to Rome Brooklyn. Triple A
