Latest WTBTS UK financial figures 2010 / 2011
by dozy inthe structure of the wtbts in the uk is that they have split the asset & trading divisions ( presumably to ringfence a catastophic legal claim , such as a paedophilia class action.
) in fairness to the society , this is a model that many companies follow , and it also makes it easier for the property arm to sale & leaseback its assets.. ibsa ( primarily the asset holding division ).

if it is WRONG today to celebrate pagan Christmas (Disfellowshipping Offence) then it was WRONG in 1926 to celebrate pagan Christmas - 7 years after Jesus "chose" them as the true christians on earth, the Faithful and discreet servant.
What is faithful about this:

That French Tax Thing
by BroMac insome time ago the wts got stung for a hefty tax bill in france.
they dragged it out for years in the courts, and finally last summer it was announced at the dc that the european courts found in their favour.
of course it was all down to persecution i remember friends at bethel in london telling me how busy they were because the french branch had closed down and all printing was being moved to london.based on these scriptures i have never understood why they didn't just pay it?

Romans 13 New International Version (NIV) Submission to Governing Authorities
6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
Luke 20:20-26 New International Version (NIV) Paying Taxes to Caesar
21 So the spies questioned him: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. 22 Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?” 23 He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they replied. 25 He said to them, “Then give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” 26 They were unable to trap him in what he had said there in public. And astonished by his answer, they became silent.

LOVE THOSE STATISTICS!
by clarity inlove these stats from jwfacts /jehovah's witnesess.
"this is one of the most telling graphs, showing that the number of people leaving has tripled from the rate in the early 1990's.
for the 10 years from 1986 to 1995 the rate was an average of 12%; for the 10 years from 1996 to 2005 it had risen to 41%.".

I think if JWFacts uses the Average publishers - which he has done- and not Peak publishers then I dont think the figures are far out
