The WT$ has achieved 100+ years of growth in the areas of money and property due to membership increase. The WT$ is a publishing house that masquerades as a religion.

Jehovah's Witnesses and Amway
by paul from cleveland inmaybe you're all familiar with this subject already but i just came across it tonight.
it's an article about whether or not amway is a cult.
the similarities between jehovah's witnesses and amway are incredible.. http://www.cocs.com/jhoagland/amcult.html.

I attended one of their meetings and I understood it was very much cult like and left the meeting. I wish I had known better about the WT$.

Handing in '' Field Service Report '' even if you're very ill.
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy mom has not been to any meetings or participated in field service since august 2013. she cannot walk due to all her medical conditions.
she is either in bed or sitting in a wheel chair.. our family hired a caretaker monday - friday to help her eat, take her to the bathroom and sit with her in case she needs anything.
in the evenings and weekends, we have family members take care of her.

At one time two elders, one was the COBOE, came to the hospital and asked me if I had 15 minutes of field service time. They were not interested in my health. Morons.

How much longer for the congregation book (sorry bible) study?
by Saltheart Foamfollower inafter the recent decision to ditch the cbs during the circuit visit, i've started wondering if it is the first step to losing it altogether.
at the current rate, the draw close book will be finished at the end of next year.
based on the way things are going, even the most recent publications will be out of date by then (acts book and organization brochure were out of date when studied) so what is the point of doing them.

The book study should be ditched and we can have a family wake up evening study instead. lol

Rooming request
by paladin inwe received a phone call from the summer convention rooming department representative.
he requested that our complimentary room payment for our three day stay be paid at the rooming dept.
and not to the hotel.

Okay. Now I am thinking this must be a bogus phone call. I will follow up with the hotel that we are registered with.

These hotels have been contacted months in advance for rooms requested by the Watchtower for guests and we paid the hotel after our stay. Now the guests pay at the convention sites.

Now this has to be one big money grab. I asked is this tax deductable and the answer was no. This will calculate into millions of dollars for the WT$ to invest our hard earned money. Just follow the money.

JWs in a frenzy!
by leaving_quietly inanyone else get the distinct impression that jws are being worked up into a frenzy with all the changes and activity nowadays?
by the end of august, there will have been four campaigns inside of a year.
one last november, a memorial campaign, a convention campaign and an advertise jw.org campaign.. then there's the conventions with all the hooplah around that with all the video, and the aggrandizement of synchronized gb talks.

Well we are 100 years since 1914. The WT$ wants workers not thinkers. I think it's time to wake up.

WITNESSES CAN STOP REPORTING FIELD SERVICE!
by The Searcher inthe lawyers acting on behalf of the wtbts/g.b./'mother' during a paedophile case a couple of years ago, have stated on record that - .
a) "field ministry is not controlled or monitored by the elders, the congregation, or watchtower".
b) "an individual publisher's field ministry activity, including the time and manner it is carried out, is a personal matter between the publisher and his god.".

I just finished reading the 2004 edition of COC and I missed that point, but I just marked that statement. Now I have to ask my wife to read this book and hope she does not throw it out.
