  according to a recent pew report, ones who are not affiliated with any religion are the fastest growing group.

  if they were a religion they would be the largest.

  's who are leaving religion, but cuts across a wide spectrum.

  portrait of a girl and her dog.

  her name was cheryl ann draper and she was about 11 years old the day she begged her daddy to let her go with him to work at the gas station.

  he had never let her come along before; no matter how many times she pleaded.

  Sad thing about JW funerals

  i live in a country that has had reasonably low levels of covid.

  bearing this in mind i’d like to discuss my thoughts on 2 jw funerals i attended during this time.. (funeral 1) even though there were no governmental restrictions at the time, the official stance of wt was the halls were shut down.

  despite this the local congregation decided to open the hall up for the service and a reception at a private premises.

  2. experiences

  i just posted this on a seperate thread, but i think it deserves its own thread.

  this is with regard to the pew survey that states “2 out of three 3 born into the jehovah’s witness faith.

  will not remain in the faith as adults.”.

  "The Bunker" episode

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you like criminal minds check out season 13 episode 6, the bunker.

  of course it borrows from cults in general but some jw similarities as well, such as emotional propaganda videos, us vs them, telling new converts that they're going to be persecuted and told lies about the organization, end of the world fear etc.. here's an idea: if you're pimo, watch it with a jw relative and watch the discomfort ensue 😏.

  my in-laws are two such people.

  people who pioneered and did not work and try to save, instead they made just enough to get by and waited for the end to come.

  now my mil is in palliative care and the state is paying for her keep, my fil lives in a dilapidated home and can not keep it up.

  Question

  by Gorb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what is the probability that a religious organisation is used for money laundering?

  for example, large amounts of money are raised by the organization as a donation and then legally introduced into the financial system.

  is there any chance that jw.org is used for this kind of purpose?
