  WT cash flow speculation

  by campaign of hate in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so it was reported that the wt made $60,000,000 in canada last year (?).

  working on the assumption that this figure is from not only donations, but from property revenues and other ventures from the branch, we get a figure of $528 per publisher, per year.

  the calculation: 60,000,000 / 113,617 (2014 av pubs) = $528 a year per publisher.

  I'm shocked at those numbers from Canada because every hall I ever went to the donation by the members were very low. It seamed in a lot of cases there was one or two old sisters that would maybe donate the needed funds to make up any short fall for monthly expenses. So I'm wondering if a bigger percentage of the profits in Canada weren't from assembly hall donations and other things not related to congregation contributions.

  Message from WTF, Watch Tower Financial: We and the world will last way longer than we say.

  wtfinance has converted the property mortgages into annuities., financial vehicles that guarantee income for life, in particular an unexpectedly long life.

  wtf are not gamblers, they know that the world and with it their need for money will be here for a long time.

  the end is not around the corner, it is not later than you think.

  Jeroboam Vs Man of God

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jeroboam built high places for calve worship, created his own priests, created his own sacred day of worship, and was just all around a bad man.

  1 kings chapter 12.

  man of god did not engage in false worship, did not have tons of money, did not have a harem of beautiful women, and did not have the power of a kingdom.

  Another one is Josiah I believe the son of Hezikiah. Hezikiah introduces reforms to stop worshipping false God's and after his death his son I believe does the same. Yet even though he is a true sevent of the one true God when he goes out to battle Necro Pharoah of Egypt which is invading his lands, the servant of God gets killed. Where was Jehovah?

  Richard Ashe Court Deposition - " Let elders handle child abuse- don't talk about it "

  by flipper in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  as some of you know i was given pdf files of much of the conti and lopez child abuse court cases and asked from a friend to peruse through it and post some excerpts on the board here that may have been missed or not addressed in the pbs newshour report or the abc news nightline report.

  so after going through this richard ashe testimony i feel i found something quite interesting that exposes the real attitudes of the wt society leaders towards child abuse and the attitudes wt leaders put into it's appointed men's minds as well.

  the viewpoint that richard ashe displays is repeated in elders throughout thousands of jw congregations on this planet.

  Or the just df the victim. I knew a girl that was date rape by a bible study that fained interest only to be with her. The elder told her to be nice to him since he was studying. After she was raped she waited until her pregnancy was becoming obvious to say anything to anyone, which is typically. She went to the elders of the hall she grew up in and instead of support the df'd her. These cult loosers are scum.

  So Why Do They Need The Money?

  by konceptual99 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  so, as well reported, the latest jw broadcasting show is all about giving money.

  as far as the wt society goes they have been pretty candid about there not being enough funds to meet the expenditure.

  there are plenty of views on if this is really the case or not but underlying this is why are they spending so much money?.

  They need more do to inflation and people just not able to contribute as much anymore. Think about it, real enflation is upon us and here in the USA one can see it. A big Mac is 5 bucks and that's just the burger. This is the country that's able to print money out of thin air, what about the rest of the world that can not. Thier enflation rate is going to be even higher. So the WT is probably getting less based on inflation and the only real source of capital is going to be only from a few countries, USA, Canada, UK, Germany and maybe Japan. Everyone else is only sending in a pittance.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  tonight gorby and his wife watched a part of the 2015 may edition of jw broadcasting.

  we couldn't force our self to watch the full stuff, because of it's sneaky way of production.

  first of course the dynasty melody at the start, the world map background and the car salesman mr. lett.

  http://nakedlaw.avvo.com/money/6-outrageously-wealthy-preachers-under-federal-investigation.html.

  if you don't know what avvo is, it's a website run by professional lawyers on all subjects, you can ask them any question.

  i am looking for all the old jim and tammy bakker, the jerry falwell and oral roberts videos to show you how the governing body is using their scripts, it's totally uncanny how copyright infringement of "begging for money from the poorest segments of society", their totally wicked!

  Apostate views?

  by Richard C B in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if a brother is starting to look at material on the internet and starts to have serious doubts about the jw organisation and questions the integrity of the governing body.

  what steps would be taken to by the congregation to readjust his thinking.

  and also if the congregation is not aware of this but he has confided in an individual how would that individual try to help such a brother?.

  What they did with me is as I was showing my new found understanding with one elder he was trying to figure out my motives. Him and the other elders were trashing my reputation not only in the hall but thought the circuit. In the mean time there was a talk about apostasy and going on the net. They got my wife all busy and had her give a number 3 talk about going on the net. They also said things to my family but not sure what exactly. I think the elders are told to go in lock down mode and destroy the reputation of the individual so as to protect the congregation. Totally opposite of what Jesus supposedly taught. It's a cult.

  If he existed at all. Early gnostic writings indicate there may have been a guy but that he was just a cool teacher so to speak and not the son of God. The books of James and Jude were supposedly written by his brothers and they do not elude to this idea of him being the son of God.
