"That would be illegal activity." I am thinking more of the Cleaning, Real estate, Construction. Providing, Purchasing, Financial Service activities in- and with individuals which generate profits that do not show up in wt accounts. It is like what goes on around a Black Hole, matter that goes in,-- is gone, without possible return, , but there is a lot of energy, radiation coming off the periphery. There is a glow to the enterprise. many are bathing in it.

The money question...
by Tornintwo ini am intrigued to know if there is truly any evidence of financial irregularities in the jehovah's witness organisation or if any one or group are raking off funds or benefitting financially...?.
whilst i disagree wholeheartedly with most of their teachings and practices, dogmatism, legalism and superiority complex, i don't honestly think there's anyone making millions at the top.
yes you could say that the gb are comfortably off, don't have to pay bills etc but they do actually get up in the morning and 'work', they aren't going off in private jets to tropical islands or driving bentleys.

May be the money is at the periphery. There must be people, millionaire that would not be thus, had they not been close to the organisation, the wtBtS inc. -

cultBegone:--"Yep, February is weird.--" but not in a supernatural way. Earth is closer to the sun in the winter, and having fallen, moves faster, whereas the moon keeps on revolving unaffectedly. Johan Kepler figured it out ~400 years ago. he would have been a member here, disfellowshipped for bible based critical comments. -

It is sad to hear about all the death in that neighbourhood. hard to sort out the why. "clinic for planned non- parenthood"?, providing health services? If he was a nut, really a hard one to crack. may be because of sympathisers among the police force? -

Little Thought for Lurkers, oringinal sin?
by Diogenesister injust one little thought....adam & eve ate the fruit from the tree "of the knowledge of good & evil".
so..in other words, before they ate they did not know right from wrong...hmmmm so how can you blame someone who does not know right from wrong?.
for a crime to take place in human law you must have the act - 'actus reus' - and the guilty mind or 'mens rea' as it is termed.

smiddy: they would have eaten from the tree of life first ? before eating the tree of knowledge of good and bad ?
The Tree of Life likely was part of their monthly diet, a spice, supplement; think of the 12 harvests of the trees on the river in New Jerusalem of Revelation 21/22. Wt writers teach that "one day Jehovah might have shown them the tree of life", but they probably knew it very well, that is why the way was blocked until it's flooding. so:
A-dam & Eve were perfect, therefore dying like all creation, (even stars died, so that we can live). perfect= mortal, normal.; that is why they needed the tree of life to extend their time beyond normal. The fantastic 900+ year lifespans were due to the residual effect of the monthly shot of tree of life juice. --damn those swords, beat them into plowshares!
The wolf in red riding hood talked too. where is evolution when we need it? the breeding success of those talking animals?.

truthlover123 So apparently he could not have been bad in heaven or he would not have been given that position on earth.
no problem with the story there, the "disappointment aka sin" could have come after he was appointed over the earth too. So: we can't shake that domitnation, there is still he "throne of satan" according to the wtBtS inc doctrine, the authority given to the devil by Jehovah, now more focussed since the 1914 immigration of him into the Earth.
