Just remind me again, is the society nearly bankrupt and fighting for survival, or banking hundreds of millions if not billions through donation and property deals in London and New York?... I do forget things
Both are happening simultaneously. With a little imagination one can see that they don't have to be mutually exclusive. Years of delusional mismanagement and wishful thinking tells me that these CEO's don't know what they are doing and I'm relatively sure they have been operating at a loss for many years since they went to a complete donation basis when offering literature. Which could explain their big kingdom hall money grab, to me it is a sign that things are bad and getting worse.

Alston said she chose to use her name and speak to reporters Monday because she wants to give victims a voice. She said filing civil litigation in hopes of changing the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ policies did not amount to committing an act against God, even though her attorneys say the Jehovah’s Witnesses might shun her for doing so.
"I know that there are other victims," said Alston, who now lives in San Diego. "I know that you're scared because you're worried about being punished by God. But God would never do something like this. So it's OK to say something. Because if you don't say something it's going to keep happening."
