Salesmen working on commission (i.e. colporteurs, Pastor Russell's business)
by TerryWalstrom in"despite the millions of books and magazines sold by charles taze russell and his tower publishing company, and the hundreds of thousands of tracts and other literature distributed free by zwtts between the mid-1870s and 1900, only around 2600 persons bothered attending the watch tower society's local memorial celebrations in 1899. a significant percentage of those 2600 persons were russell's "colporteurs", who earned their livings selling russell's literature for a profit.
charles taze russell was absolutely correct when he proclaimed for decades that zwtts was not a religion -- it was a business.
"_____"zion's watch tower magazine was not owned by zion's watch tower tract society, but rather was a "for-profit" business owned personally by charles taze russell and his tower publishing company, and that the "growing debt" which was "burdening" the work of zwtts was owed to charles taze russell, himself.

by minimus ini sneakily read his books at work.
it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

Cold war 2.0
by mikeflood incanada arresting the daughter of china's huawei telecomunications conglomerate with the intention of extraditing her to the us for "violations of sanctions to north korea & iran", navy ships sailing for first time in 30 years near of russian bases "to challenge excessive russia maritime claims" , us secretary of state speech saying that "the multilateral approach is not working anymore".
maybe the last is the most worrisome.
it looks like the us know something that we don't know, that they are weak like banana republics, going to comply to whatever demands they make, or that this is the last real chance to stop them.....one little miscalculation and this takes fire...hope not, it's lot more funny talk about the borg.

What would make an Ex-Jw go back to been a full in Baptized JW
by LOLS ini was just wondering , why would my jw husband return to been a full blown baptized jw after 20 years of fading?.
he has spent 20 years of his life been a worldly person , with a worldly wife & kids & worldly friends .... to joining the borg full time , to getting baptized , to getting new brothers & sisters .... and to writing off most of his worldly friends (some his known his whole life ) , to trying to convince me & our children how wonderful this org is ......and anyone else who will listen :(.
has anyone ever experienced this ...... oh and he seems to be in it 110% and no-one can say anything about this crazy org or show him proof that it all bs...... his such a clever independent , successful guy , why on earth would he go back to this , after been out for so many years & change into this domineering , opinionated fool ..... oh and his entire family also went back ... father , mother , brother & sister .
