I know I started drinking A LOT more after I had been an elder for a couple of years, and right through my personal crisis that led me to "step down" and eventually to TTATT.

Is this new donation arrangement for real?

by nugget in

just read a post on jwsurvey about the new donation arrangement.

congregations are to pledge a monthly amount to be sent to the society to fund the building of assembly halls and kingdom halls.

congregations who already have a loan from the society will no longer have to pay back the loan but the amount pledged should not be less than the current monthly repayments to the society.

"Brother Russell stated: “‘Zion’s Watch Tower’ has, we believe, JEHOVAH for its backer, and while this is the case it will never beg nor petition men for support."

Watchtower's reply to this:

Russell who?

Oh, that guy. But you see, he wasn't the FDS, so what the hell do we care what he said?

In summary:

Now Jehovahs Witnesses believe in the Rapture. . . . but they don't call it the Rapture

And they believe in tithing. . . . . but they don't call it tithing.

As a side note, I told my wife about this letter and she is very impressed with my predictive "powers." Over a year ago I told her I thought they might implement some sort of tithing arrangement, and she thought that was impossible. Looking at it from a business perspective though (which no JW does) it only makes sense as your base shrinks in developed nations and is expanding in poor uneducated countries.
