One of the biggest things with Jehovah's Witnesses is that don't ask for money, its all on a voluntary basis. This is one of those things that pulls people in, that there not obligated to pay anything, no collection plate, etc.

Why did the WTS stop having the rank and file pay for magazines? (1990)
by Joliette inwe had our po visit this week, and he was telling us about how the rank and file had to stop paying for their magazine.
why and how did this come about (i was born in 1983) so by the time i could get to the literature counter, everything (at least i thought when i was kid) was free.. .
was more of an emphasis put on voluntary donating?.

Issac: OMG! Are you serious. I'm starting to think the WTS is all about money. My parents say that its not.
Outlaw: Yes that is a very funny cartoon, and very accurate.

And with voluntary donation, I would think there would still be a tax on it? How does the WTS get around paying a sales tax?
So let me get this straight: The WTS doesnt pay taxes on ANYTHING? (Please forgive for sounding a bit ignorant, but I want to get the bottom line of this).

More on the brother in my hall who attacked children Halloween night with a knife.
by life is to short inwell i have learned that it was very true.
i do not want to post the story because i do not want to totally give myself away and the story dose not say he was a jw only that he attacked children and had a police standoff.
plus it gives his name and i just do not want to bring more problems on him, it is just really sad.. the brother is schizophrenic.

Man, (smh) theres so much mental illness @ the kingdom hall. I wonder if people really know what there up against when they go out in field service and street corner work. They dont because their not trained psycologist. Also, let me not fail to mention, the thousands of people at the kingdom hall that already have mental illness.

MJ's mom still goes out in service ? ! ? !
by ShirleyW inshe just said that on oprah, those checks she must write to the society each month must be astronomical !.
probably the same size as the checks serena williams must write after her nude spread in that magazine.
i mean, can we not all smell the hyprocrisy here?

I didnt get a chance to see the interview, but from what I hear, Oprah is really fake. She scorned MJ in an interview last year, but now, all of a sudden, she loves him and his family.
Somebody is trying to get their ratings up.

Yoga
by letsslatejws inwhy was there such a fuss about not doing yoga?.
i did my first yoga class today and whilst you are encouraged to not think about your days worries, you can hardly consider this vacating your mind, so as to let satan in!
it was more about holding stretching limbs and simply holding poses (such as holding your leg out straight etc).

I loooooove yoga! I dont do the super extreme stuff but I do like basic yoga. And Pilates also. I know JW's who do pilates and pilates actually borrows a lot of ideas from yoga. So is pilates bad also? lol
