Orphan crow, it's sad to think of this as a tool to exploit native Americans further. At the same time they abuse taxpayers in general.

Remote Translation Offices (RTO) of Jehovah's Witnesses
by Brokeback Watchtower inwhat do you think about these things.
it seems like a monumental waste of time and money, a pipe dream of the governing body based on wishful thinking.
this corporation is going down the tubes with these asshole deluded genius's calling the financial investment shot.. buying chemical dump property around the world to build their financial empire headquarters on while facing massive child molestation lawsuits now and many more in the future means it looking kind of bleak for these messed idiots running things.. http://jw-branchoffices.blogspot.com/p/watchtower-remote-translation-offices.html.

The research here is great! From Brokeback's OP to darkspilver to orphancrow.
BTW, is there anyone in Wales who only speaks Welsh and no English? Or for that matter, is there anyone in the world whose only language is Scottish-Gaelic? It's cool, but do they really need to publish their propaganda in those languages to communicate with people to the north and west of England?

I also think an important motivation for building RTOs is real estate proftlits. And orphancrow has a good hunch about getting Satan's governments to support their work. In addition to getting government aid, it can also help Watchtower avoid getting taxed, since they can point to these efforts to support smaller languages, some of which are dieing. Look, we really are a charity!
Geoffrey Jackson has some direct experience with tapping this revenue stream. He was able to get the Australian government to foot the bill for publishing his Tuvalu an dictionary, when he was a missionary there. Tuvalu has the smallest population of the 196 members of the UN. And only 10,000 people speak Tuvaluan. But look at all the literature published in Tuvaluan on their website. All that for one congregation with 60 publishers.

This is insane, elaborate wild goose chase.
They really expect to get 1,000s of deluded guys with valuable skills to waste a minimum of 16 hours a week for 6 months.
If the BOEs were awake, they would write letters of response with the contents of Lois Lane's post.

Warning: Watchtower computer dept. registers accounts on Ex-JW sites, coerces people to divulge their personal details
by WTS Archive inwe had a bad experience with watchtower trying to infiltrate our forums.
let this story be a warning for all you guys here.
if you value your privacy do not ever send your real contact details to anyone, even if you trust them (because their accounts could be hacked or accessed by their relatives - and yes, this happened to people i know several times already).

WTS Archive, good for you standing up to those dishonest bullies.
You and others in Poland seem to be leading the way out of WT, judging from the two most recent yearbooks. Poland was the leader in freeing publishers in 2014, then in 2015 joined by the 2 Congos and Malawi in Africa. Japan, Korea, and Puerto Rico also appear to be leading the way to freedom. I'm sure those countries have WT's attention.

Mark Sanderson Talk re Belgium visit
by Listener inthe degradation of the governing body members continues on.
mark sanderson gives a talk regarding his visit to belgium for the memorial this year and was travelling from korea to munich to brussels, belgium on the day of the belgium terrorist attacks.he cannot wipe the smirk on his face as he relates his experience, with no regard whatsoever of all those unfortunately affected by the attacks.
in fact, he personally found god's hand affecting him personally, allowing him to attend the memorial as planned and a kh dedication.he is that privileged during his flight travels that internet was available to him, enabling him to catch up on current news and to contact branch's.

Should I just tell my parents
by BlackWolf inlately i've been feeling just so fed up with this stupid religion i really can't take it anymore!
i'm starting to think that maybe i should just tell my parents how i really feel.
if they treat me too badly or kick me out i could probably stay with my non jw aunt.. ive just reached my breaking point, i don't really care what people think of me anymore.

You have already proven yourself to be a strong your lady. You could look at the situation as a one year job assignment. Keeping peace with your parents will pay room and board, which is their legal and ethical responsibility. Don't put too much much energy into fighting them, but do put energy into getting your diploma and starting a career that will make it possible to support yourself.

Simon: What happens when you can no longer support this site?
by StephaneLaliberte inhey simon, .
the recent closure of jwr made me realize that this site may not be eternal as well.
a great deal of people attach a lot of importance to xjw communities and yours is the best.

Simon,
I recently joined this forum and I want to thank you for your work and for your help. This site has helped me wake up. I have seen some incredibly good research here, which often shocked me. At times I would go over to JWR and find some very kind and comforting words there. That gave me the strength to come back here for more information that is hidden by WT, sometimes in plain sight. I think that combination, along with an objective look at my local congregation helped me get as far as I am now.
I hope some of our friends coming over from JWR can bring some of the gems that were developed in the threads over there. It would be a pity to lose all of that.
