On the one hand , they are continually asking for more contributions from the R&F , it`s not enough that they have forgiven loans to Congregations and then asked the same Congregations to pledge that same amount or even more to H.Q.in the USA .for evermore .
On the other hand , they have a Real Estate Office selling prime real estate in Brooklyn for millions of dollars that is going to total more than a Billion $$$$$$ .Coupled with the fact they are also selling off K.H`s and asking the R&F to share other K.H.`s further away at more expense for the congregants in travel ,fuel , and time .
And how many Branch Officers have been closed down and sold in recent years , the reduction in printing costs , smaller mags , the lay offs of Bethelites , etc.etc.,
Where is all this money going is the question I wouId be asking the Society .
The confidential letter that the A.R.C. received ,addressed to the B.O.E. in Australia from the Branch Office in Nov 2015 , regarding Legal and Financial people was very telling.
The writing is on the wall for the WTB&TS , not only here in Australia but worldwide.
Of course it may be a slow death taking a few more years , but death is assured as a Religious organization .with Tax free Not For Profit & Charitable privledges .
