It begs the question why don't JWs see the difference between the example set by the apostles and the attitude of the GB .

in the latest jw broadcast, anthony morris the turd gives a talk about donations.
to camouflage this, he starts and ends the talk by saying that isn't actually what he's doing.
first he starts with the usual disclaimer, 'wt has never begged for money like christendom and we never will', you know the drill.

At least Christendom is up front about it , and l say that as a member of that awful group of degenerates .
Our contributions are to our local church , but SOME of it does go to the CofE where it is used to pay for vicars in poorer parishes . However any church is only asked to give what it can afford when it's own needs are met .
Unlike the WT our finances are completely transparent with the PCC , of which l am a member getting regular financial reports and each year at the AGM a yearly report is published for any of congregation to see .
Also my church , and l would think others make donations to charities at home and abroad.
No the WT isn't comparable with Christendom, at least he got that bit right .

https://canopyforum.org/2021/04/19/the-right-to-shun-ghents-misguided-jehovahs-witness-decision/.
in march, the criminal court of ghent, belgium fined the congregation of jehovah’s witnesses (jw) for “inciting discrimination and hatred or violence against former members.” the case centered on the jw practice of “disfellowshipping.” while the court’s sensitivity to the individual impact of shunning is laudable, its decision regrettably assaults the freedoms of religion and association.. first, some background on jw beliefs and disfellowshipping.
jw was founded in the united states over a century ago and is headquartered in new york state.
Yes Diogenesister every human being has the right to shun someone.
No one has the right to make / coerce some one else to shun anyone else, especially a family member .
That is taking away the rights of the person being coerced.
That is what should be outlawed .
