  i really don't think that the government can reclassify the Borg as a taxable system, but I think they could be padding themselves for an onslaught of lawsuits about sexual assault.

  if you don't want to get disfellowshipped, even after knowing about the truth, don't ask any questions at all, no questions which imply you're doubting at all, no questions at all!!

  one would think by being a tax-free organization there would be oodles of money saved up....but with this new tithing arrangement, something smells really bad.

  What is the key to free yourself from the Organization?

  by suavojr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  they key to free yourself from the organization is having mental clarity of what is happening in relation to the watchtower, inside and out.

  their basic concept is that they are god's sole organization on earth.

  there really is no basis for anyone to make that statement.

  If I asked for a loan from the WBTS would they give it to me?

  by objectivetruth in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if this were the "organization" that jesus chose in 1914.. err 1919, wouldn't the principles that he laid out while on earth apply to this organization as well?.

  matthew 5:42 "give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.".

  so if jw's all asked for loans from the org, every now and then, it would be the orgs responsibility to grant those loans (interest free).
