Wow! Really wow! This analysis of the issue is absolutely sound. In it's clear point by point dissection of all that has been said, all the puff and false references to god's mercy and tear stained heart wringing, it gets right to the point.
There have been countless critiques of all this on so many ranting YouTube channels all quite rightly breathless with outrage. This response beats them all. I think it's unanswerable.
Bravo!
i know we get a bit cynical and hard boiled about the exploits of wt inc. but this takes the biscuit.
apparently these ecuadorian indigenous people objected to being targeted by the sect.
so wt inc rode in and guess what?
My point was that the video:-

"Your Donations have Power" made much of this litigation along with building projects etc. There was no mention of the very significant sums spent in aggressive and expensive litigation relating to CSA. Surely this is relevant in any discussion about the use of donations.
Is it not reasonable for those making the donations to have access to some unfiltered information as to what their money is buying?

I know we get a bit cynical and hard boiled about the exploits of WT Inc. but this takes the biscuit. Apparently these Ecuadorian indigenous people objected to being targeted by the sect. So WT inc rode in and guess what? They beat them in court. Apparently these people were surprised that there was a big organisation behind this small cong they felt was at fault. They learned the lesson, don't f*ck with us.
That is bad enough but the meeting this week brags about it as good use of donated funds. Somehow they didn't mention all the millions spent in making CSA cases go away. Incredible hypocrisy.
The answers in the meeting completely misunderstood the video thinking the WT had acted on behalf of the indigenous people. Cognitive dissonance made them mishear or misinterpret the facts.

It's finally dropped about a week late. Counts as breaking news I suppose.
It was a horrible event. People in built up towns sitting in traffic jams were just inundated, swept away and drowned by flash floods. Pretty extreme.

100's dead, huge carnage of highly populated areas, still radio silence.

the construction of a new jehovah’s witnesses kingdom hall in cybinka, poland, has once again shed light on the watchtower organization’s relentless drive to expand its real estate empire on the backs of unpaid, vulnerable volunteers.
every day, around 40 jehovah’s witnesses show up at the construction site, some traveling long distances, not for pay or proper protection, but to fulfill a sense of “spiritual duty” instilled by the organization.
Here is my take. The cavalier early days of quick build ethos are long gone. Health and safety is taken seriously and policed by experienced (often officious) people.
In the UK for some reason the usual regulations applied to commercial operations do not apply so there is no official accident investigation. I have heard of serious accident resulting in hospitalisation and months off work without official come back.
Another factor is the fact that WT org does not insure the sites or work or rather they self insure. This means there is no insurance investigation either. The people I know that have been injured have not received any compensation. Trying to claim from WT is like getting blood from a stone.

Normally we have a formula. Disaster, cue WT volunteers to the rescue, self congratulatory breaking news on JW.Borg. Parts of Spain are washed out with huge loss of life. From WT Inc? Nothing.
with the statement in the study watchtower this sunday, that stop serving jehovah is a serious sin, the following:.
- can i conclude now, that we, (i, wife and 2 children), since 2008 pomo and no longer active in any religious activity, are serious sinners for jehovahs witnesses?.
writing this in a watchtower, a statement like that, could have big implications.. it makes me so sad.
Yes, that was noted and discussed with Mrs S F. They keep slipping in these stiletto ideas between your ribs designed to foster guilt and fear.
Last week it was "Another might be strongly inclined toward unclean practices, such as masturbation or viewing pornography. Still another may be struggling with fear of man, independent thinking, a quick temper, or something else. As James states, “each one is tried by being drawn out and enticed by his own desire.”—Jas. 1:14."
Notice what they did there? Masturbation, porn, independent thinking. Oh the guilt! How do any keep their sanity?
i've been meaning to share some recent experiences that defy the usual tropes about the 'world gone to hell' or 'people now days".. as some of you may remember i was seriously ill for a while and had to close my business and shop.
now, as it seems i have beaten it, i put up a sign again advertising that in a limited way i'm back.. what amazes me is how many times over the past 2 years customers and even competition have written and called to express their concern and best wishes.
just last week i had a personal visit of someone who i thought of as a rival, come in and shake my hand sincerely happy to see me up and around.
Hi PP, I'm ashamed to say that I had not picked up on your illness. I do however share your optimism about the amount of simple human love and decency that are about. I have experienced it in countless ways, too small to mention but that add up to a lot.
I hope that you get stronger and properly back on your feet and flourish.
