  just saw this on the ex-jw subreddit.

  on opencharity.ca, you can view wtbs canada's financial info and in 2013 they received almost $9 million in donations.

  you can even see how much some congregations gave.

  does a type of buddhism exist that doesn't include the metaphysical aspects of traditional buddhism?

  There's no reincarnation in buddhism.

  I guess what I was referring to was "rebirth" teachings. And the teachings about the realms and planes of existence.

  That stuff just feels like another irrational rabbit hole.

  This is why this forum is awesome. There's always someone else that has had the same thoughts or considered the same path.

  Thanks everyone!

  Well, when I refer to metaphysical I'm meaning the whole karmic reincarnation teaching.

  I had never heard of Crisis of Conscience before I started to wake up.

  I had heard of Ray Franz. Everyone said he was an apostate and that he wrote the Commentary on James and that's why it was out of print now. (Imagine my chuckle when I found out it was actually another apostate, Dunlap, who wrote it.)
