Did you know WTBTS applied for Holocaust compensation?

by umbertoecho in

did you know that the wtbts applied for these compensation funds?

i had no idea and if this has already been addressed then so be it.

i find it interesting due to the fact that so much is made of the jws being in camps during ww2 and nothing else is expressed about the other millions who died in these camps.

Hi Snare&racker,

Have you ever heard of the Hans Dollinger letters?

Here's and excerpt from his second letter in 1935: “...never during all the years that National Socialism has fought for Germany has the Bible students Association tried to impair that fight. Neither in any talk given, nor in written form, nor its overall policies has the association made any negative statement against National Socialism. This applies to Germany and its many hundreds of thousands of co-believers as well as to foreign countries in general.”

So according to Dollinger the 'Declaration of facts' and the original letter to Hitler was not a denouncement of the Nazi regime at all. He says in the letter that they never at any time in any country spoke out against the Nazi government or stood against it. Never did they attempt to impair National Socialism. He even stated that National Socialism fought for Germany as if he respected what the Nazis were doing. He signed the letter 'Mit Deutschem Gruß'. It's worth noting that though this wasn't quite as damning as ending the letter with 'Hail Hitler', the German criminal code forbids the use of this phrase to this very day because of its National Socialist overtones.

"Well thats interesting...16,000 is a noteworthy amount."

The WT would just laugh it off as its small potatoes compared to their Billion dollar income.

But its significant in that it represents 32 more people who could have been compensated.

Who were those potential people?

Individuals who were witnesses during the holocaust but later left the organization.

The WT fund declined to help identify or to assist them.

Oh of the $54871 the JW Victim fund charged there's a $16000 charge that is questionable.

"did the Org get any I wonder?"

Not that I can gather. It seems they only awarded money to individuals or families of victims.

Unless you count the 6% administrative expenditure the JW victim fund charged :)

Some JW claimants actually worked in munitions factories:

Of the $911 356 the Jehovah's Witness Holocaust-Era Survivor Fund received for dispersal to 1876 beneficiaries, they charged 6% ($54871) in administrative costs.

Who oversees the money for the WT?

by John Aquila in

when the wt sells property for a billion dollars profit, who decides what that money is going to be used for?.

when all the money comes in from all the kingdom halls bank accounts worldwide, did all that money go into one big account and who has authority to spend it and cut some checks to whoever?

when all the monthly donations come in to the watchtower headquarters, who decides distribution, and to who?

Saintbertholdt

Their financial advisers are Merrill-Lynch.

Can someone explain to me ......

by notoneoftheboys in

i was never told before i got baptised that i would loose my family if i got disfellowshipped.. no one told me i would get disfellowshipped if i had a blood transfusion.

no one told me that the gb was all powerful and tolerate no dissention.

that if i spoke to a d/f person i would get disfellowshipped.. no one told me in my marriage bed there were rules if broken d/f shipping resulted.. i was told my brothers would die or care for me.

Saintbertholdt

Well Notoneoftheboys,

I am sorry no-one told you. You gotta read the fine print with these big corporations hey. They make their contracts air tight and if you breach you have to pay the piper. Unfortunately in the information age the Satanic Internet is educating people before they sign so...today its vitally important to get children from as young as ten years old (or sometimes even younger) baptized as soon as possible. This is because:

1. There's less chance that someone might tell the prospective candidate of the possible negative aspects of their decision. Who wants to spoil a young child's fairy tale?

2. The prospective candidate e.g. child would most probably not even have the ability to understand the full implications of their decision and

3. Such a young candidate would probably not possess the mental faculties to ask deep probing questions about the implications of their life decision.

But its all good. Lock them into the system while they're young.
