Need help with new DC Releases
by Mattieu inmy apoogies to my northern hemisphere friends who have already commented on the new releases at the district convention over the last couple of months.
wifey is at the first australian one today and came home last night with 2 new brochures; was life created?
& the origin of life - five questions worth asking.... at first glance, nice quality print job (printed in japan) colourful pictures to keep the kids busy all day at the convention site, but on further look the style of reasoning is sickening.

Australian Taxation office investigating religions as charities/tax status
by Mattieu inthere has been a lot of rumblings in the media here lately as to the worthiness of some religions enjoying a tax free benefit due to charity/not for profit status.. the latest media reports are on the hillsong church:.
http://www.news.com.au/money/money-matters/tax-office-push-for-charity-monitoring/story-e6frfmd9-1225896551630.
i actually spoke to the reporter of this article a month ago on an unrelated matter, so will call him with a suggestion on a follow up article to this on the jw's.. we have an election looming, so will not hold my breath as to the government setting up an inquiry so as not to lose favour with voters, though based on the readers comments on the news.com.au website, they should.. cheers, mattieu (go webber at hockenheim......).
