Anything is possible! Maybe they are keeping an eye on their spiritual half-sister the 7th Day Adventists. Their total tithe and offerings for the year 2013 were: $3,354,863,946! That's a helluva lot of scratch and could make Tight Pants Tony and crew really sit up and take notice.

Do You Think 10% Tithing is Coming?
by xjwsrock infirstly, there are cash flow problems in wt town.
i don't think it's necessary to list all the cutbacks and layoffs, but there have been many.. their thirst for money seems higher too in my opinion.
more entitled may be a better way of putting it.

The article you reference presents a compelling counterpoint to the Mormons and some journalists claims about the growth of Mormonism. Thanks for posting that slimboyfat! After all, who really knows the truth. Both Jehovah's Witnesses and the Mormon religions were founded by men who were prone to great exaggeration and if you will, OUTRIGHT LYING.

Please forgive me Simon:
Will the Dark Lord be offended if I call him the Dork Lard? I'm just not sure what vowel points to use when translating his name.

Gee.......I guess I am still legally an Ordained Minister of the Watchtower Corporation. It says so right here on official stationary from the headquarters itself. Even though I have faded, no one of any ecclesiastical authority has made any attempt to 'defrock' me and remove my title.
