  Will The Governing Body Tighten Control Over Rank & File Members Even If It Opens Them Up To More Lawsuits?

  by frankiespeakin in

  when we look at the conti case we see the amount of control that the governing body has over the rank and file makes them open to lawsuits.

  i see lots of areas where this can work against the financial and legal interest of the corporation, for example:.

  1. a banning of blood transfussions enforced by disfellowshipping.

  Congregation Loans

  what i am trying to figure out is wether or not the society actually collects interest on the money they loan for kingdom hall construction.. .

  for instance if we have 70k in the bank and need 90k for project and we get a loan from the borg - do they charge interest on the loan or is just the base 20k paid back over time?.

  i never actually paid attention to this process, does anyone know.

  Sir82 is accurate with the change in policy regarding interest. I remember over 20 yrs ago, when the Soc charged 6% interest. That was when we had high inflation. The rate of interest was justified because the value of the money lost it's power as time continued on. Today's annual inflation rate of 2% doesn't really justify charging an interest rate.

  The Americans already own the Molson Brewery, so it can't be that.

  The Elders want to meet with me ... (Judicial Meeting)

  the elders want to meet with me.

  at least that's what they keep telling me, and they've been saying it for more than a month and a half now.

  just so you're clear: this is a judicial committee.

  They are not so quick to reinstate,as to DF. Everyone has to wait who is this state. Time is on their side. If reinstatement is what you want, you will have to play this game.

  I watched last ight, and I do have some questions.

  The son worked for his dad's business, and he couldn't afford to live outside of the home. He then apparently got a good job, but still couldn't get an appt?

  Both son's didn't have any JW girlfriends, why?

  The singing of the parents were too much.

  In the real illusrtation, the son didn't work, he just squandered his money, came out empty.
