Is there a GROWING AWARENESS among Jehovah's Witnesses that SOMETHING is REALLY WRONG with the Organization?
by BonaFide ini hope i can explain this clearly.
years ago, we all knew what a child molester was.
but there were a lot of misconceptions, mishandled situations in and out of the congregations, and just a general non-awareness of the seriousness and pervasiveness of pedophiles.. not anymore.

WTS are tax evaders!!
by 1914BS inwe all know that the watchtower bible and tract societies corporations pay no property tax or income taxes on donations from the kingdom halls.. yet they condemn other corporations for being tax evaders .
look at this rubbish from their own web site.
payers, avoiders, and evadersmost people will at least begrudgingly acknowledge the benefits that taxes bring to their community.

all religions are cults - someone else is making rules based on their interpretations of a "holy" book. I don't need it.

they DO mean well, most of them. jesus christ you people...
they are GENIUENLY happy to see you there, because they THINK that associating with their cult will help you.
THEY ARE MISGUIDED.
i would venture a guess that 95 percent of them have no other agenda but to help you.

Homsexuals---Do You View Them Improperly???
by minimus inhomosexuality has been going on since the beginning of time.
many animals (that jehovah made) are homosexual or bisexual.
throughout history, homsexuals have been reviled for their actions and their sexual orientation.

Men are disgusting, cant even understand why women go for them/us. So to understand homosexuality is pretty difficult for me.
but, it happens, and it doesnt affect me so i dont really care :)

the fact that other churches preach politics from the pulpit is why THEY should be taxed to the max.
and umm yeah, accept christianity or die starving? real humanitarian.
there's just as much reason to tax "christendom" as there is to tax the dubs
