  In fact, I suspect revenue agencies relaxed the rules for keeping one’s “charity” status during Covid, which was why the WTS so readily hit pause on the door-to-door work…

  …their tax-exemption wasn’t at risk if they told the rank-and-file to stay home on Saturday mornings, but it may have been if they hadn’t.

  LongHairGal - “…the fact that the JW religion has absolutely no social programs like the ones you mentioned is something that should be held against them, in my opinion…”

  I suspect it is.

  Frankly, I think it’d be weird if the IRS wasn’t keeping an eye on the Org on a regular basis.

  Ah, but as long as the Mercedes is a four-door sedan, it’s not a “showy display of one’s means of life”, huh? 😄

  Journeyman - “…They would save members of the congregations a lot of stress (being 'disciplined' for entirely understandable life choices)… They would save bodies of elders a lot of stress (being expected to 'enforce' unreasonable rules)…”

  What makes you think they give a shit about whether or not the rank-and-file are stressed?

  Foolednomore - “…I was filling my car with petrol at the pump and I saw Mr Super Righteous Elder fill his Mercedes and stare at me as I fill mine. I looked at him and he shakes his head as if he is disgusted.”

  What were you driving?

  in this jw training video, an elder gets deleted because his daughter has "stumbled" other jw's by pursuing higher education.

  🤣.

  Smart-slash-educated people inevitably come to the conclusion that the WTS is, quite simply, wrong.

  Of course WT loyalists - leaders and followers - will feel threatened by that.

  Also, just reinforces my opinion that the guys at the top really do believe…

  …‘cause that’s not typically the kind of tactical blunder cynical charlatans would make.

  Yup.

  Continually alienate and demonize intelligence and intelligent people, and all you’ll end up being left with are dumbfucks.

  It ain’t rocket science (irony squared 😏).
