  Building Inspector Here...Why can't we study the Foundation?

  by oompa in

  2. beliefs

  that sept km discouraging doing research except by wt lit.

  is still on my mind.

  most dubs have the cd for research at most and that stops at 1950. i they wanted to study the foundation of jw on something they would be limited to the proclaimers book and that only gives little snippets of the past.

  Would it be wrong of me to say that I thought this thread was going to tell us the truth about what happened to Linda ?

  OOMPA...

  I thought that I would include this as a response to Q3. (even though it was Rutherford the bulldozed the Pyramid thing)

  

  Anyway, the irony made me chuckle !

  All that talk of pyramids, and not one mention of Mr Russell !

  I have found something truly horrific.

  this is big, very big.

  bigger that pascal petite(well, just as big), bigger than the demonic hand or the rams head in the live forever book!!.

  to present this properly, i will need a scan of the page in the live forever book where the thief is running from the police clutching a bag of goods.

  This story just made me so mad!

  by Sad emo in

  i heard it on the radio last night.

  i was going to post it on the other 'should marijuana/cannabis be legalised' thread - but since this case involved alcohol as well, you can't be sure which 'drug' if either was a contributor to this sicko's actions.. i'm not going to post the full story here as some may find the details distressing.

  it basically involved a guy who had been smoking weed and drinking who denied a dying woman any dignity in her final hours.

  Didn't "Leolaia" have a thread a while back that had a bunch of "Golden Age Goodies"? That should be helpful, also.

  Hubert, yes she did

  Nice link Sirona.

  They point to the accounts that I was speaking about :
  http://www.charity-commission.gov.uk/registeredcharities/AccountListing.asp?charitynumber=216647

  Take a look inside and you'll find the assets that I mentioned.

  Thanks !

  Also, just saw this in one of those SIR documents (2006):

  We do not engage in fundraising activities. We have a reliable donation base; the congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses in the UK. We only let them know each month, about current highlights of our activities. Hence, the donations are unsolicited.

  Thanks DiamnondBlue - I have those ones, but it looks like they are due to file some accounts for their most recent financial year soon.

  Blondie - Thanks, where did that info come from. It is amazingly high, and only applies to the NY company, there are many others.

  The interesting thing is that in the UK, the WT doesn't make that much money - it is the IBSA that makes more money - with total assets of the IBSA in the UK amounting to 66.5 Million.

  Do other countries have the IBSA as an active company still ?

  Some other IBSA facts (2006)

  Donations 9 million pounds
  Legacies 941,000 pounds

  Yep... I'm wondering what the whole lot is worth. Weren't they listed as being in the top 50 richest orgs in New York or something ?
