    "We were very pleased with the decision," said spokesman J.R. Brown, adding that while Jehovah's Witnesses "don't need any government to authenticate this work ... it is comforting to know that this primitive version of Christianity is still validated."

    The society publishes 24 million copies of "Watchtower" and 21 million copies of "Awake" to supply more than 6 million Jehovah's Witnesses.

    and that is just for one corporation that they owe

    it doesn't include branches and their revenue

    or the PA corp along with the 5 new ones

    yes you are looking at over a BILLION DOLLARS a year and the wt doesn't own One Fucking Bus to get folks to the Hall in Africa or anywhere else

    instead the wt is proud to publish stories of it's members walking for 3/4 days in 100Degree weather

    why can't they rent a bus at wt expense to get those folks to the convention, even if you only allowed the old folks to ride the bus it would be better than the who circuit having to walk for 3 days to the district convention

    can you see JR Brown giving up his Q45 to walk for 4 days

    HELL NO

    So they made this list again, eh?

    And with no reported loss in revenue from 2001!

    And I DID notice, Funchback, that JR Brown dissed the Supreme Court in a very dub-like, back-handed way....

    Excellent points, JT! Crossing crocodile infested waters, getting bit by unnamed insects, and arriving at a hall with a straw roof. At least provide transportation!

    outnfree... What was the figure last year again? I forget. Oh, and JR Brown took a BIG swing at the government(s) that they continually run to in order to preach freely or to end their own persecution.

    What are the chances that they have the SAME exact figure as last year? How is that possible??? Something smells fishy.

    So let me get this straight. The world is corrupt and satanic, yet their pulling in a $billion tax free every year and do not do a single F-in thing for their members or the community?? What a bunch of leeches! Where is it all going?? With war in IRAQ imminent, im sure their revenue from military investments will SKYROCKET!
