  Mark W. It may be a relatively small amount of money, but it's currency permanently leaving my country for no benefit. Year after year.

  Yes all the cash ($30,000,000 annual estimate) flows to "Mother HQ". May explain why the USA govt isn't in a big hurry to curtail the shenanigans of it's (not a few) home grown cults.

  Ok they're not paying income tax BUT they're spending that cash on US businesses & other forms of indirect taxation (Ant Mo's Scotch bill?) . Also land taxes/council taxes etc, I presume?

  May be good to post on r/exjw and R/exMo (Mormon) on Reddit, too. I'm not sure if there's a Portuguese language exjw on Reddit but on You Tube on Saturdays there's a Spanish/ Portuguese language programme for ex cult members on "Rick Fearons" Six Screens of the Watchtower you could contact. The guy who runs it is called Efrain Rivera

  No..Sorry, Not having that.

  YOU are the "rightly disposed" one. (It doesn't add 'to be a Jehovah's witness' at the end!) What is it with these people?!! Imagine so carelessly trying to ruin someone's big day like that. His own father! Nuts when you really think about it!

  I'm very sorry about your cousin😞It's funny, although most negative feelings wane over time, when it comes to death - especially a tragic young death - the pain increases, imho. I think because it starts to hit hard, as your own life experiences pile up, just how much your loved one has missed. Just how much they've been denied. It's just something I've noticed. The older apostates get, the angrier they get about "JW Suicides", even when Watchtower barely enters their thoughts anymore, let alone their lives.

  Anyway....rant away! We're here to listen❤️

  It was Fade to ex?😳🥺😢I used to talk online to him. Nice kid.

  NB TonusOH it was me that claimed Dijana's brother died from suicide, that's where you heard it from. I'm really sorry. I apologise to Dijana, too, if she happens to come across it. I remembered Lloyd blaming the org for Dijana's brothers death, I put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

  Either way he was very young when he died (19?) and it's clearly resulted in a lot of trauma within the family, understandably. Lloyd has played on that and I believe their vulnerability around his death is the reason he was able to live in the home of two active jehovahs witnesses whilst behaving so badly (as well as being able to produce apostate content).

  Wikipedia article on Milton Henschel has just been edited and now contains an introduction that could be misleading

  by jwleaks in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the edit:.

  henschel did not step down "from his leadership position in 2000".

  he was a governing body member up until his death in 2003. a slight error but one that implies much more given the subject matter.. henschel resigned his position as the president of watch tower pennsylvania not as a leader of the jehovah's witnesses - his so-called "leadership position".. having accurate grass roots entry level information on members of the governing body is important in litigation for law firms, and for government departments undertaking a desktop study of such a person.. any wikipedians out there capable of correcting this statement.. .

  Why did he lie about filming in Germany?

  I'd take a wild guess, Slim, and say it was probably something to do with him poncing more funds?

  Subbed. It's a great idea to have everything there in one place.

  Just wondering how things like the livestream, his letters, his C of C bootleg vids and the Andrew Gold interviews can be uploaded without falling foul of copyright? I know there's some good reviews of the livestream (such as the one VAA did) but there's definitely value in having them uncut. I guess linking the uncut version in the comments, perhaps?
