  Wow!

  One thing shines through, there are external forces bearing down on the WTS. There’s no way that all this is happening from strictly “new financial light” from within.

  “We must protect the organization, we must protect its charity status, this saves us millions each year”

  There are two possibilities as to why the financial clampdown is accelerating. One of them is touched on here, the “charitable status” in the USA. It is possible that the IRS is taking a closer look at the WTS and they are having to ‘right the ship’.

  The other, as I have been saying, is the debt held by WTS and the likelihood that the WT received a “demand letter” from the institutions to whom they owe, such that the WT was forced to either declare bankruptcy, or to make a structured settlement quietly which involved large real estate sales to raise cash.

  Or a combo of both.

  In any case, the WT is screwed. And the recession isn’t even here yet.

  Abused, you are correct. It is very, very broad and the Sharia Law zealots will be sending a big THANKYOU to WTBTS.

  Now, the Sharia zealots can argue that it’s their religious right to beat their 16yr old daughter to within an inch of her life.

  It is the courts and lawmakers of the land(s) who bear the greatest responsibility when it comes to ongoing crimes. They allow Watchtower to continue unhindered.

  Imagine if you will, a grand courtroom. All the lawmakers at the front. The courtroom gallery filled with watchful bourgeois.

  The presecutor rises and commands that the evidence be displayed for all to see, a live video stream of children being abused and elders doing a coverup.

  (The parsimonious lawmakers watch the evidence as the gallery reels in anguish.)

  One of the lawmakers, his hand rubbing his beard utters the first response “It does seem that there is reason to perhaps look into this... at a much later date “

  Another lawmaker concurs, “yes, there is reason to believe something here is worthy of further analysis “

  Yet another lawmaker exclaims “this has been going on a long time already, and we have in place, somewhere, people who are looking into this”

  A final lawmaker chimes in, “I don’t see anything different here than happens anywhere else, I vote we do nothing...”

  All the while, in the background, the live feed evidence shows children being molested by animals wearing pants and the gallery screams “JUSTICE “... but none is found, the lawmakers bamg their gavels and go for lunch.

  How to deal with struggling with the doctrines

  by Dval in

  2. beliefs

  this is my first post.

  i'm still a jw but am inactive.

  im struggling with the fact that i agree with some of the doctrines (i,e, the stance on the trinity, there is no hell) but i disagree with a lot of things (i,e, men can't have beards, women have to wear skirts).

  Duval

  Venus said a mouthful in a few words. Worship that is acceptable is “the taking care of widows and orphans “... James 1;27

  Jesus himself said that he will judge based on who took care of “the least” ones. Matthew 25:40

  Sir Isaac Newton wrote ardently of spiritual things, more so than things of science, although he is known only for his works on science.

  He wrote that there is no trinity.

  So, Watchtower did not discover that there is no trinity, they merely adopted Arianism.

  As time passed, Watchtower went on to claim it, at least in the minds of JWs, thus they hijacked it.

  Do you want to be on a plane flown by a hijacker? Maybe you want to get to your destination, but not that way....

  Note: If a sister with children applies for day volunteer, make a discreet inquiry as to whether she needs a Watchtower appointed creepy brother to watch them carefully.

  Financial Review:

  Watch Tower and Tract Society of Canada is a Major 100 charity with $79.7m in donations in F2015. Its administrative costs are 3% of revenues, and the charity does not report any fundraising costs. For every dollar donated, 97 cents go towards the charities programs, falling outside of Ci’s reasonable range. Before its $27m in bank loans, the charity has $19.8m in gross funding reserves, resulting in a net program cost coverage ratio of -8%. The financial statements Watch Tower provides to the CRA Charities Directorate are incomplete missing the financial notes and auditors information.

  The above is just Canada. The Watchtower has bank loans.

  When the Bank Demands Payment in Full: 3 Options for Borrowers with Matured Business Loans (By David Soble)

  There are 3 realistic options that a business owner should consider when their bank demands payment of the loan in full:

  1. Pay off the loan. In today's restrictive banking climate refinancing sounds much easier than it really is. Banks infrequently rewrite their own commercial loans upon maturity. This is because the financial position of many small businesses has diminished since 2007. Also lending guidelines were more' flexible' then, with commercial properties reportedly having higher values.

  2. Negotiated Exit. Be assured that if a loan has matured and the borrower is not prepared to pay if off, the bank will begin a lawsuit. Defending a law suit can be expensive, but in most cases it will only delay the inevitable. Absent real legal defenses for bank misconduct or the mishandling of a loan, the best approach for a business owner is to negotiate a realistic "exit" from the bank with the assistance of experienced counsel. There are a numerous variables for consideration when negotiating a forbearance or settlement agreement, so unless a business owner is familiar with bank work out or special asset protocol, retain an experienced attorney.

  3. Reorganization. Chapter 11 reorganization can be expensive, but it is an excellent remedy for business owners... A Chapter 11 bankruptcy should be a final option,
