  IMO, the half-filled venues are the biggest indicators that the Org is fudging their numbers.

  Back in the day, assemblies and conventions were packed to the rafters.

  Hah!

  Reminds me of something I realized a long time ago…

  …assholes just can’t seem to hide it, no matter hard they try.

  Phizzy - “…I doubt very much they have a decent Legal defense…”

  Let’s be honest.

  It’s not like they give their lawyers a whole helluva lot to work with.

  Full-on evil? I dunno.

  Deluded and deceitful? Absofuckinglutely.

  And personally, I suspect authentic Satanists wouldn’t want ‘em.

  Beth Sarim - “…we'll see the Borg in a mad scramble here to avoid legal entanglements…”

  Could they register as a “friend of the court” in Italy? 😏

  Fragrant - “…you know a religious group is a fake if it signs up for corporate status to get out of paying taxes...”

  Nicely put.

  peacefulpete - “…it smells like a group wanted their cake and eat it too. Use a space as a meeting for religion and other purposes.”

  Wouldn’t bet against that theory.

  JWs obtaining fake degrees from a US institution to teach English as a foreign language

  by truthseeker in

  teaching english as a foreign language in asian countries is quite popular for those looking to travel and explore and make some money.

  if you have the tefl qualification you're pretty much good to go and don't need a degree.i don't know how lucrative these overseas jobs are but i do know one jw from my congregation in england who decided to move to the caribbean and teach english as a foreign language.

  i'm not knocking this individual.

  truthseeker - “…apparently in JW inner circles it's owned by JWs...”

  Oh, that’s too funny!

  You know, I’d’ve been skeptical a month ago, but recently, we’ve learned about this…

  …so, a bullshit diploma-mill (in all but the fine print) would absolutely be on-brand.😅
