They depend on the kindness of family or strangers to feed them...cause the WTS isn't going to feed them or pay for their medical or dental expenses. WHAT A LIFE!

Is The Borg Losing Money Drastically Or What???
by cognac inthere has been about 5 trillion talks on donating money.
never heard so many talks on this before... they have said in talks a few times that when the society charged per mag or whatever, the society got a lot more in donations then they do now and the cost in production has gone up.
anyone have any feedback on this?.

Do You Clearly Understand That "The Truth" Is Nothing But Bullcrap?
by minimus inwhat a waste of living being "in the truth" was!
sometimes i see persons suggesting that the witness religion isn't all so wrong.
actually they suggest that they themselves are the issue.

Jesus was a simple man and therefore, he being the son of God, all he wants is our reconnection to him. Doing so in prayer. God's spirit is there to help you in understanding. We don't NEED a religious organization at all.

"HS" likes to force his opinions down other posters throats. Then makes snide comments if they disagree or talk back. It must be that bathtub gin he drinks! LOL

THIS, my friends is KILLING the Watchtower Society....RIGHT NOW!
by RedPill2006 incanadian archaelogist zhichun jing, writing about the decline of the highly creative shang dynasty, said "...after a century the shang vitality slackened.
the initial diversity and creativity devolved into a dull sameness.
by the end we see that things like their pottery, architecture and artwork had become standardized and simplified.

agent zero...It's an educated guess...who else takes care of money? Maybe the Accountants too. There is plenty there for those few who look over the Bank accounts in diverse places. Two BILLION and counting in cash not to mention all the properties around the world.

The Watchtower LAWYERS have everything in place so that when the last of the original dinosaurs die, they will divide the WTS fortune among themselves in my opinion. It won't be long now. The end is near.

Unique but accurate observation about KHs from a "woldly" person
by Lady Zombie ini was out this weekend with a group of my "worldly" friends.
the majority of them don't know that i'd been a witness in the past, nor did they know that my family still is.. i'm not sure how we got on the subject of religions, but one guy asked, "what's the name of those people who don't have windows in their churches?".
several guesses were thrown out including amish and mennonites but he shook his head.

Two KHs I attended did not have windows but it is funny how I didn't notice....The last and third one had a few large windows you could look out at the street and parking lot as the speaker droned on and on. The building was old, built in the late 50s.

July 15 Study Edition
by StAnn ini just read the first article in the july 15 study edition, entitled "the house-to-house ministry--why important now?
" i thought it was insane overall but i noticed that they seem to be reintroducing the "marking work.
" hadn't that belief been eliminated?.

How can any of us know these people are "anointed" by Jehovah? So many other so called Christian religions are preaching the "good News"

Does anyone remember the pic about the apostates at end of 1000 yrs.....
by chrisjoel init was a picture about those who would take a final stand against the new world order like a camp outside of the true worshippers.
so satan would be let loose for a little period and then anyone who agrees with satan ...ends up looking like keith richards with earings and is deserving of death.. anyone remember the pic?.
-
TopHat
I remember the picture and was just thinking of it a few days ago... they got it backwards... the good are on the inside and the WTS represents mean and nasty apostates on the outside.. The WTS is an apostate religion. :)

announcement at service meeting
by heathen ini actually went to the service meeting last night and low and behold the announcement was about the wtbts not charging interest on the loans on kingdom halls anymore but they still had to pay back the principle balance , i never knew they charged interest but think that it was a very dishonest thing for them to do to begin with .
you have to borrow money to pay for a building that the wtbts owns?
to charge interest is a very worldly practice since it was against mosaic law to do so and clearly jesus would never have asked anything of the sort .

I feel the same way you do heathen. Why buy a building the congregation does NOT OWN. Why not just pay for the upkeep of the building the congregation is using. Utilities and such. After-all the WTS is a non-profit organization. The WTS benefit when the property value raises. What a waste of the members money. I wouldn't buy a $500,000 house just so I could hand it over to someone else when I move. That's my money and not theirs.
