  Hague court stops tax free status for Scientologists

  http://www.nltimes.nl/2015/10/22/hague-court-deals-blow-to-scientology-tax-free-status/.

  from the article -"the dutch branch of the church of scientology has lost its tax status as public welfare institution, and the tax benefits that go along with it, in a ruling made by the court in the hague on wednesday.

  the court decided that the sales of the churchs expensive courses and therapy sessions are clearly aimed at making a profit, and thus it does not belong on the tax authorities charity list.".

  I look forward to the day here in the USA when ALL so called religious institutions lose their tax exempt status.

  Thinking about converting to Judaism after I leave the JW cult. Any Jews here?

  by tragical in

  just a question, any savvy jewish lawyer shark types here who would like to go after the throat of this jw cult and send them to hell?

  maybe take them to court over any number of topics and expose them for the evil cult they are?

  pick your choice of child abuse, personal slander, mental cruelty and torture, and thousand of other topics.

  Which proves the fact we human are social creatures. And upon finding the faults with Judaism, then you will gravitate towards another group.

  This is why I feel somewhat comfortable taking this JW group as a mere social contact.

  not long after learning ttatt, my hubby and i decided it would be best for us to fade.

  his entire family is in, but not in the same cong.

  we made it to the region convention and one sunday meeting after that.

  Ever since the emotional detachment and full understanding of TTATT, the guilt is gone and I just enjoy the social aspect of it.

  I daydream with attending meetings a couple of times per month, skipping the Friday of he RA, skipping one of the small assys, out on service just a couple of times each month. Just enough to avoid being kicked out.

  Are you truly happy?

  by onightdivine in

  for the lurkers and active jws here, are you really happy about the recent changes?.

  are you happy where you are now?.

  does it make you feel special that you are more "privileged" than non-jws or other jws who have less preaching hours than you do?.

  need input: why does my wife do this. when at the meeting she is always nodding her head in agreement

  by goingthruthemotions in

  so this is just so nauseating to me when she noddes her head in agreement and in a low voice or sound does a "mmm uh" in agrrement.

  but here is the deal, she never aswers at the meetings.

  she doesn't go out in service often.

  That behavior is just a small fragment of JW nuttiness. In the Spanish congs there are always 3 or 4 at each meeting that do this. It is funny to watch.

  I despise COs and their wives; as nice as the wife can be, make no mistake, she is in total cahoots with the 'company man', actually a spy oh sorts among the sisters.

  No green handshake, meal offerings or any other special consideration from me! The last couple of times they've visited, we have has turned down invites to take them out to eat to local restaurants.

  Conceited, condescending leeches!!!
