If some of the helpers were helping them think, they might have thought they could get more donations by saying they need to build 1,000 halls in 5 years rather than be honest and say they only need to build about 20 halls a year so they could get some footage for JWTV.

Lemming, thanks for the excellent translation to non-cult English. It is so much easier to understand than the WT version.

In the advertisement for the Warwick tour it lists 3 exhibits. One is an exhibit of Bibles. The second deals with history of the organization. The third praises the wonderful acts of the Governing Body (capitals theirs). No Jesus exhibit. No exhibit of Christian charity.

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.

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.

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.
