That idea is control at it's best, direct deposit donations to the borg. It's a wonder it has been adopted here in the US of A. I am sure they probably knew when the deposits stopped, all they would have to do is compare it with the sheet from the bank that shows deposit of that kind and then they would know who dropped out so to speak, and who in their mind (of course) isn't giving their idea of a proper amount.

Donations to The Watchtower
by Little Imp inin the uk we are encouraged to make our donations by bank direct debit.
i just wondered if anyone knows if a direct debit is stopped whether the local kh the doner attended gets informed?.
my husband stopped his donation some time before we completely ceased attending meetings and he has always wondered whether the elders knew.

Goodie night
by PYRAMIDSCHEME ini was reading through another thread and this was briefly mentioned.
i remember goodie nights, i also remember how they just kind of faded out.
was that an unofficial thing or was there official direction from the fds in the form of a letter/article or local needs talk that put a stop to it?.

actual fellowship {goodie night}with one's supposed brothers and sisters was only really accomplished at the CBS and especially the goodie night, but as we all know having a good time is strictly not allowed. Can't believe people just swallow this bull up and do nothing about it. Lemmings all, they don't think and anyone thinking is definitely a danger to them. they should have a sign on the entrance door of all K.H.s and that being thinking is not allowed on the premises it has been determined by the WTBTS that it presents a danger and thereby is not allowed.
In smaller letter below, no smiling or having a good short talk with anyone, absolutely no fun, no enjoyment, afterall you are the happiest people in the world why would you need fellowship or fun. It's a job lets get to work.
If they did have such on entrance doors there would still be zombies coming in.

The fundamental flaw with the WTBTS as "God's Organization"?
by Essan inthere are countless issues that people have with the society and which together have led to many people realizing that it is not what it claims and pretends to be.
these include things like the secret un affiliation, contradictory and hypocritical stances, (malawi vs mexico vs un/ngo), the ever changing blood policy and ever changing doctrine, failed predictions for armageddon etc, etc, etc.. but what is the consensus about what the fundamental flaw is?.
what i mean is, many jw's hear about these various issues and manage to make endless excuses for them, even though this involves gross hypocrisy and excusing the society for things they would never excuse in other religions and which the society itself has ruthless condemned other religions for over almost 100 years.

Yeah the flaw is that the Org says that, "we are the faithful and discreet slave and the channel that yahweh uses to communicate to us miscreants here upon the earth." or something really close. their imperical proof is "we say so, so it is truth". I am amazed at all the Bs coming out of their mouths and the mouths of their followers. Any thing happening in the world, the tragedy in the Philippines, War in Afghanistan and iraq, cold weather in Antartica all point to the end being near and Satan conducting things here upon the earth. They are so full of themselves, not realizing that they are really full of it. xxxx

As usual they only show their side of the story and don't deal with facts as usual or theory as just that a theory.

Do you REALLY believe Ezekiel laid seige to a brick 390 days?
by Terry inin ezekiel the 4th chapter one of the most ludicrous passages in the bible tells us god commanded his prophet ezekiel to lie on his left side in a mock seige against a.....brick!
for how long?
390 days!.

Ya know on second thought, he could have made a brick shit city of Jerusalem and watched the flies lay siege to it for all the time he was tied up, you know crapping and adding to it every day would have made quite a model city of excretement after all of that itme. And his shitty Jerusalem would have been just like a lot of the myths in the bible. Bull crap but in this instance Ezekiel crap so to speak.

ezekiel 68: 1-13 speaks of Ezekiel licking the rectum circles of the camels for 40 days and 40 nights. This like a lot of Bs in the so called Bible is strictly myth. How in the hell was Ezekiel suppose to defecate if he is all tied up, defecate on himself, piss on himself for 390 days then turn over in all the excretement and do it again for 40 days. Please. And please don't quote 2 timoty 3:16 to justify it. I mean just think of thebed sores he would have gotten, who would have been there to smell all the that to fed him and give him drink, I mean after all he was tied up you know.

Watching 60 minutes
by sspo inwatching 60 minutes and they're showing a skeleton that is 1.9 million years old... found in south africa.. the expert agree on its age and that's so far off from what the bible says of adam being created 6000 years ago.. for 32 years as a jw i argued with people in trying to prove that the bible is truthful in everything it says but.
i finally realized a few years ago that it 's just another "holy book" written by men.. .

"Evidence suggests that they walked upright but took refuge in trees, were tall for their time (4 ft. 4 in.) but squat in shape, had the dainty teeth and protruding nose of a modern human but a tiny brain." When I read this from the article, I thought my gosh they are talking about the dubs in their d-d unministry, i.e. protruding nose (dubs are nosy), tiny brain (need i say more). well thats the equivelent of a modern day door basher if there even was one, probably of the species "homoignoramuseldoritis."
