Interesting moment on subway today & other thoughts
by sd-7 ini was heading home today, and i saw one woman reading a new world translation.
we made eye contact, but i hope i didn't glare at her or anything... since i was already having a bout with depression today, it didn't help to see her.
so then she gets off the train, right?

How will the US Payroll Tax Hike Affect the WTBTS?
by ABibleStudent inhow will the us payroll tax hike affect the wtbts?
according to the article u.s. payroll tax hike seen hurting charitable giving: survey, 1 in 5 people in the survey said that they would reduce their charitable giving because of the tax increase.
if jws do not have well paying jobs, it would make sense that jws working for a paycheck will have less disposable income to give to the wtbts.. how do you feel the wtbts might respond to less revenue?

I would hope most would tell them to take a flying leap, but most will try to cut back where they can and still give as much as possible, just as they are programmed to do.

Actually it did matter SD 7, I thought it was very well done, even had the JW kids friend asking if the family should be making those decisions for him because this friend never heard him say anything about the Jw's. and didn't think he really believed it. The victim was set at a perfect age, 19, and a doctor even said what did she know at the age of 19? (or 16, or 14, whatever age they are baptizing at now.) For not being written or directed by someone who was on the inside of the organization, I thought they did an excellent job bringing some critical issues to light and for the people in generel to think about.

Revising a manual and removing a page is far different then telling all of their followers to sell everything and preach until the end comes in 1975; then denying that they ever said that, and that their entire organization of followers from common publishers, elders, pioneers, CO's, and even their own DO's "MISUNDERSTOOD" their message.

I remember hearing a talk saying that you should determine how much monthly donation you are going to give to the society, and make that donation at the beginning of the month. If you wait until the end of the month an unexpected expense may come up, or you may miss some time from work; therefore you may not have the money to donate and you will break your vow to jehoober.
So these greedy bastards want you to put in your donation at the beginning of the month so they get their cut, but if your car breaks down, you loose your job & can't pay your rent/ mortgage, get sick & can't work, ect. too bad for you, we got ours. That was one of the many things that showed where their interest truly was, not in your best welfare, but in your bank & saving accounts. From that time on I donated very little or nothing, and hoped that their statement wake up others, but it probably didn't. It is no suprise to me that they have credit card machines everywhere.
