I'm not a christian any more I find its precepts to be untenable, and through a more in depth research have no religion.

How many of you still believe in God or are still Christians?
by JWCartPusher inhello, i asked a new but old friend how many people are still christians after leaving the watchtower's mind control agency, for statistical purposes do you mind if i do a survey and see how many of you are believers?.
please don't post if your not a believer out of respect for this poll, we need to sharpen each other's sword and help build each other up and meet new friends over the internet with faith in god or some other force of the universe.
i asked another person how we can still manage our faith after getting burned by the high group mind control, he had a few ideas but he's not really involved with god because of how life burned him.

6 branches subsidize the rest of the branches.
by hoser ini went to the meeting this morning and we had some guy from overseas bethel give the public talk.
6 countries subsidize the rest.
he said in some countries all the donations that they get from contributions don't even pay the electricity bill for the branch buildings so money has to come in from these 6 richer countries.

I think a lot of credit must go to the internet for the lack of contributions, even though it is very hard to put any numerical figure to it due to lack of information so it is intuitive.
The more the lack the more the GB will brow beat the R&F to give, in turn the more lack of contributions as people see it for what it is a purely money grabbing corporation that calls itself "God's Organization".

Donations
by FadeToBlack ini think that since i am the sole wage-earner in our household, i need to make it clear to my wife that i don't want any of my hard-earned wages going to the wt.
i know she makes a monthly contribution to an animal shelter and i am fine with that.
what do you think?

What Exactly are the Governing Body Members of the Jehovah's Witnesses trying to sell themselves As ?
by Finkelstein inthe watchtower corporation has been in existence for over 100 years now, originally headed by presidents and slew of recognized executive directors known as governing body members.. in 1919 the then president of the wts j rutherford proclaimed that god has exclusively chosen him and the wts as its earthly chosen organization among all other christian based faiths.. was this just a calculated self marketing ploy to create validation and to draw attention to the wts published works ?
the gb today still uses the assertion that god is backing this organization with that attaining exclusivity by god, jehovah blesses are work and jehovah had offered this, is constant reiterated in about every talk during most jws meetings.
is this just intentional adverse brainwashing ?

They are trying to sell themselves as caring loving old grampa's that have only the best interest of the flock they have been chosen by Jehovah to guide to an everlasting reward and so they must be listened to and obeyed.
I think that represents a sorta corporate motto for these over the hill delusionalist.

These guys on the Governing Body are showing their true colors, which is very very good, the more they are going to send the rank and file out the door, and then less money, a snow ball effect were they become more and more blatant in asking for more money to make up for those leaving.
I say let them keep it up it will bring them down faster!
