my situation is better now that i'm on social security disability and ssi. but still.. accepting help from a worldly church scared me to death at the time. (pre internet days)

just so you know i'm not a total loser , back when i was married i always gave to area collections for families in need, the local volunteer fire dept etc. never was financially able to give much but i gave.

Juicy JW Stories too big to hush up!

by target in

when their actions spill outside of the congregation and get in the newspapers, there is no hushing it up.

the stories i am about to tell are factual, but the names have been changed to protect the guilty.. many years ago in a small neighboring town, there was a small mexican restaurant that was owned by a non jw who employed jw relatives and nonrelatives.

it was a popular place.

candidlynuts

nothing real juicy but its late and i'm in a postin mood.. mini bitch fest included lol

one night the elders were all running around like chickens with their heads chopped off..seems the publications donation box turned up empty 2 weeks in a row.nice ms 's son was eventually found out to be the culprit.. but no one was supposed to talk about it..ex happened to be the culprits 2nd cousin and found out thru family.

well respected former elder shoots at a carload of people who were attacking his son... hits one person with non fatal injury.. makes the papers he gets df'd ..( elder says to his elderly mother ' if only it hadnt made the papers we'd have had more leeway in our decision)

elders counsel a single older sister for working at a convenience store making minimum wage to try to survive, where she has to sell tobacco.no special priveleges for you sister... . brother elder works for a food company that is owned by tobacco company and makes 100k a year. but thats ok..

nother one.. brother cool elder had a cleaning business.. hired select nice young sisters to work for him . he goes to c.o. training and starts hitting the road as a temp c.o. while he's gone, one of the nice young sisters starts her own business taking with her over 1/2 his clientele. not long after she was d'f'd lol. bad sister bad bad lmao.. i was especially amused at this one because this elders wife was the nice sister who visited me 2 weeks after my last baby was born... i had lost well over half the blood in my body. .. had no visitors in hospital cuz no one wanted to accidently run into my df'd husband.. 2 weeks later i'm still weak as a kitten, baby had rsv,and just released from a 3 day stay in the hospital, i had 3 other kids 12 yrs old and 4 and 5 yrs old.. she visited, ( 5 min break in service to use my bathroom) ran back and told everyone she was thinking about calling cps cuz my house was messy. .. bitch.. my house was messy because i could barely walk, my then husband slept at his apt at work cuz he needed his rest for work but my kids were well fed(even if it was just on macaroni and cheese and cheerios) and clean. i was amazed i was even doing that much. no offers of help, but she sure enjoyed her a good gossip fest. ( this is why i sometimes hope there IS a burning hell)

i guess the latter part of that story belongs in a elders wives tale thread

How much would you say the average JW donates in $$$ ?????

by run dont walk in

regarding donations, what would you say the average jw would donate in $$$ in a one year span.. some are richer then others, some have no children, some have 6 children, i imagine it would vary quite a bit.. so what would be a fair average, $1,000 / year per person ?????.

now when i say donation, i mean every dollar a person gives, this would include contribution boxes in the hall, assemblies, etc, donations for magazines, books, videos etc, every possible thing one would donate money to the watchtower for.. if $1000 a person is a fair number, then multiply it by 6,000,000.

= $ 6 billion dollars a year, nice scam watchtower.

candidlynuts

i always had my ex put in 20 bux a week in the regular box and some for whatever magazines/books we got in the publications box. (once an elders daughter that stayed with us because her dad kicked her out told us how he was assigned to watch the boxes i'd always tell my husband to wave it and make a big deal out of putting it in the box, catching the dudes eyes if possible. must have worked cuz he became their golden boy for awhile) also the kids would get a dollar or two each to put in the box.

memorial he'd always put in some but wouldnt tell me how much. (that and district assemblies were the only time he'd give without urging from me)

he was always big on slipping the c.o. some cash. (which i resented..let the richer ones take care of the dude)

he liked to donate at district assemblies 250 (unless we were broke) so he'd get a tax reciept although we didnt file long form lol what was funny was he started doing it with a personal check... said if he was gonna give that much he wanted credit for it lol.

we had 4 kids and our income was some years 15k some years 25k some years 40k . (although 15k now seems nice and rich.. i live on 360 social security a month, take note any wives who are thinking of divorce .. get a freakin lawyer even if you have to rob a bank or hook for a few weeks , jw husbands will cheat you out of a lifetime of memories and use god as a reason to do it)

wonder if the wtbs would give me a refund to assist me in my time of need. 18 yrs.. 20 bux a week.... how much is that? would it buy me a car so i could see my kids more often?

Identical Female Twins Become Sister and Brother

i thought the above article was pretty interesting.

in one of the presidential debates, a question was asked, " do you believe people are born gay".

candidlynuts

thats great that he has the support of his sister. i've known a couple of trans.............men that dress like women.. i forget which term applies. anyway nice people and if they wanted to be referred to as "she" and called their female name i had no problem with it.
