    The Scotsman:

    Sorry to reck the wee party you are having here but, Jehovahs Witnesses are a registered charity in may countries and cannot just "pocket" peoples money.

    If you do some research you could find out what the legal responsibilities of charities are.

    I'd have thought doing some charity work would have been one, but it doesn't seem to be. But the legal definition seems to be broad enough to include printing and hawking trashy magazines. It's a pity that religion is given such respect that the act of attempting to persuade someone to join yours is considered a charitable act. Maybe some day the Watchtower will open a soup kitchen or a refuge for battered women but I doubt it.
