can anyone reveal the "mothership's" income/expenditure stats for any recent year?.
in the uk, charities must be transparent and publish their annual financial information, but in the u.s. it's not so clear..
Deep aversion to paying taxes back to Rutherfords time?
YES!
That's their entire business model. If they began paying taxes on literature,,,then paying taxes on everything else.
Worse case scenario for the Borg. Unsustainable!! It would be a nightmare.
Thats why you see the Borg fighting tooth and nail to sustain "tax free'' and donation system.
Kick backs.
are the governing body really in charge or are they just a figurehead with the real power being behind the curtain .
Its just beyond ironic,,,that the very "apostates" which AM3 wished were 'dead' "",,, have outlasted the vanishing like 'smoke' video.

On SixSreens a few weeks ago. A caller to Ricks show was relating how the Borg never in a ""million years"" saw the internet coming. In the pre-internet era.
Yes. They never saw this coming lets say pre 1993 or whenever the internet became public.
Its just awesome,,amazing, brilliant the internet.
Some of the words that Lloyd used to describe it too.
i been reading quite a few experiences on reddit lately, and their seems to be a common theme coming up….
…dialed-up-to-eleven shunning of xjws by their witness relatives.. it reminds me of back in the day, listening to some of the over-the-top vitriol displayed by hard-core loyalists when the topic of evolution or apostates came up….
…i was gobsmacked when i finally realized these guys weren’t offended and indignant because they thought it was lies….

After seeing that picture uploaded,,,of the GB I feel sick to my stomach.
I wonder why that is?
if the current doctrine is that only baptised witnesses are going to survive and everyone else burns them what about this new update new light that some from before the flood and sodomites will be resurrected?.
but didn’t he mention at the agm something about there is no point jehovah killing them and then resurrecting them again?
it seems they are confused about what they teach and that’s why brother jackson joked about “is this what we used to believe or what we believe now?”.
They didn't think anything through.

What could make the WT crumble?
Cognitive dissonance reaching a fever pitch amongst the rank and file leading to a vast majority becoming PIMO,,there goes the donations and power out the window.
Ultimately leading to the downfall of the GB cushy, early retirement gone bye bye...
They have no choice but to double down and become more hostile.

Gone like smoke.
Yes.

The dub mind set is that the GB WT cannot be possibly wrong.
Thats what cognitive dissonance does to you.
The possibility you've squandered your life.
Expect hostility.
consistency plays a crucial role in determining the inherent truthfulness of statements and sources.
reliability of information: if a source consistently provides accurate information, it builds trust and is considered reliable.
inconsistent information, on the other hand, can lead to doubts about the source’s credibility.. .
They claim to be Gods mouthpiece. Then exclaim to be neither inspired nor infallible.
And do not wish to apologize for anything whether people have been hurt or killed for their erroneous policies.
