I'm stunned - had no idea JWs gave so little money although I realize many contributed their time (lives) to the dead-end horror cult. Amazing they were able to cover the utilities but there were probably a few in each congregation that were the bread/butter members.

44Money! How much did you "Contribute" To The WTB@TS When You Were A Member
by The Bethelite ini was in full time service for six years including bethel.
once i got out of bethel, i figured i had already given them six of the best years of my life (ages 18-24) working as a slave/drone in their factory, so i rationalized that i had given them enough... so over the next 27 years i would say maybe $200 bucks is it.
i think their whole "voluntary contributions" idea is biting them in the ass, because over all jehovah's witnesses are a cheap group people with a few exceptions.

Trump Derangement Syndrome Is Alive and Well
by minimus ini was on facebook and a person i have known for a long time posted how trump is mentally ill and is truly a psychopath.
a couple of her friends chimed in when i suggested that perhaps the fb friend was really the psychopath.
a couple of her friends began to defend her but i was surprised by how many people defended the president!

Ahh, so President Trump isn't a meteriologist and most of them get it wrong half of the time. Who can be wrong about the weather more than those pros -- no one!
President Trump is too busy 24/7 cleaning up all the messes caused by Obama/Clinton/Bush - let's see going back to crazy triple digit inflation/housing idiot Carter. The poor Dems are desperate and it's really showing - go figure and the lies and derangement is endless - quite entertaining, actually!
Last I heard he hasn't committed justice system fraud while sitting in the oval office - hang onto your hair and conjure up more nonsense because the reality show will be revealed.

WTC has become adept at using tragedy as a means of raising cash.
by AndersonsInfo inwtc has become adept at using tragedy as a means of raising cash.
for example, when puerto rico was devastated by a hurricane, wtc directed a large number of congregations to donate $1500 each in supplies that would be used for relief purposes.
it is not known how many congregations took part in this effort but the feedback suggests it was in the hundreds.

I believe the WT snakes are capable of anything and you, Barbara, well KNOW they are. Cofty makes a great point re/their charitable status/image. I hear from my Morman friend how their church was the first in the territory aiding/helping the residents and I'd heard it was the Baptists (same castrophe) but maybe the cult WT needs to jump in the sandbox.
JWs need to pull the plug vs. allowing another "pull a play" but they're too clueless.

Cause of Mass Shootings Mental Health?
by blondie ini have been sad to see so many groups and individuals say that the cause of these events are the mental status of the shooters.
i have looked over the backgrounds of these shooters, and few had medically identified mental health issues.
it is too easy to think that people shoot or kill other people because they are mentally ill.. actually, many or most people with real mental illnesses are most likely to be the victims of others.. i have been a volunteer with the organization called nami (national alliance of mental lillness) for 25 years now.

Venezuela confiscated all the guns and then released all the criminals -- what more could you ask for!

WingCommander - EXACTLY! I posted that yesterday but didn't hear anything on news (just read on ticker tape) so more evidence the insane will obtain weapons unlawfully. -

The Midland/Odessa criminal didn't even qualify for a gun permit -- or so the ticker tape indicated. Another thug using illegal weapon(s). Figures.

The buffet at Bellagio - omelette made to order, seasonal fruit, waffles, danishes, juice, champagne for imbibers. Love Denny's Grand Slam - not too healthy!
My mundane daily is fried egg (healthy-fried), or hard-boiled egg w/micro dollop of mayo, Bubba Skinny Bagel and fruit.

cookiemaster -- the daughter of the head dude at hall I was at literally used to walk out of the hall after the boasting session - her head throbbing and blurry vision (like a migraine) and start throwing up. They lived block or so away from the hall and she'd walk home - or try to walk home - this is a young girl jr. high school. To this day she's using this as an excuse. It's hilarious -- I saw her few mos ago and she told me her parents are begging her to return to Jehovah, etc., and she told them she's too depressed -- her mom said, "we're all depressed," and can imitate her mom so well - we were laughing so hard. She'll never return but thus far her parents haven't X'd her out of their life. I don't think their mental/physical life can deal with it and live out of state - which helps.
Like the smart dudes above said -- don't play their game but if you do (even temporarily) have fun with it. That religion makes one mentally/physically sick - your doctor confirmed it (lol) and your health can't take it. I feel sorry for your parents.

Save your cash - celebs receive media attention and can cause them harm in the public eye -- the cult's achilles' heel. Play 'em on and have fun with it - then fade on out to better than EVA street. Don't act like you give a care other than to your parents, of course.
Stupid cult should be grateful anyone attends and with the sale of halls they might be begging for numbers showing up.
Just read about the loser-elder hater -- can you tell your parents once he's gone you'll attend or something -- they need to show some empathy for you or you'll bop in now and then to test the waters. Use it as leverage -- I know they'll tell you it's your test bla bla - say your health can't take it per your medical team. Or have some fun with the hater buffoon.
