  when i was a full-on believing jw i had an obsessive fascination with mormonism.

  i read, studied and watched their propaganda with strange interest as well as their apostate mormon books.

  i have to say, they have a good scam going claiming that "the lord reintroduced tithing" in the modern age.

  Morph,

  Have you read any of my comments? Then you would have known I unequivocally stated that WT as an organization DOES NOT provide social services of any sort.

  My exchange with IFT was regarding help of a personal nature from individual jws.

  So please don’t call me a “liar” in this context.

  So what does helping someone with social services like food, shelter, money, have to do with child abuse?

  IFT,

  Note: I said “help”, not take care of. They help anyone with a need.

  You are responsible for taking care of yourself if you’re able-bodied. Even the govt recognizes this, as they are now again, forcing able-bodied people to work part time in order to qualify for federal aid.

  If “lurkers” are learning anything, they’re seeing the intolerance and verbal abuse ex-jws are dishing out.

  Nice for the truth to be on display.

  IFT,

  I don’t believe there is anything that states, in the US anyway, that an organization must provide shelters and other social programs to qualify for tax exemption. That would be overt discrimination as not all charitable organization provides the same type of services, nor are they all the same.

  Sanchy, tell me how disassociating in 2003 and coming back in 2014 is anywhere near your assertions? So if you want to keep diverting this discussion, be my guest.

  Many jws are born in, 66 percent of them leave, so flip a coin.

  Take that up with the IRS. They granted WT tax-free status. If you think they are not meeting the requirements, then it should be easy to have their tax-status revoked.

  Well, you’re partially correct, dubby. They don’t have any social programs that help people in that regard.

  They do not need them. Jws take care of themselves and each other. They only require the organization for their religious doctrine/training.

  Why do you want them depending on the org for sustenance?

  Will that only increase the alleged “control” you seem to loathe so much?
