$77 Million sent OS from Australia
by why144000 inpoor watchtower in australia, they made a loss of $1,537,325 in 2019 according to their filings with the government.
they obviously can't participate in the national redress scheme as they don't have the funds.
only problem is that they have sent over $77,000,000 of donations from australian publishers to overseas branches in the past 4 years.

144000 Literal or Figurative?
by why144000 inthe speaker at the memorial tonight stated straight up that the 144,000 is a literal number as we will stop celebrating the memorial when jesus 'arrives' and takes the few remnant with him.
how can the society change the 144,000 to figurative without blowing themselves out of the water?.

Were the apostles of the 'Anointed class' when they partook?
by why144000 inaccording to john 20:22 the apostles did not receive the holy spirit until after jesus was resurrected.
wouldn't this make them part of 'the other sheep' when they partook of the bread and wine?.

What are 'all his belongings'
by why144000 inif the slave is given control over the 'domestics' in 1919 and this includes anointed and great crowd what is left for the master to give the slave?
all the worldly people will be destroyed so what is left?.
matthew 24: 45who really is the faithful and discreet* slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?+ 46 happy is that slave if his master on coming finds him doing so!+ 47 truly i say to you, he will appoint him over all his belongings.48 “but if ever that evil slave says in his heart, ‘my master is delaying,’+ 49 and he starts to beat his fellow slaves and to eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards, 50 the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know,+ 51 and he will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his place with the hypocrites.

Will the GB ever do this?
by why144000 inhi, not sure if this has been covered.. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-11-13/peter-hollingworth-says-sorry-to-victims-child-abuse-brisbane/6939804.
i don't have much time for peter hollingworth.
he has always acted like a pompous prick when i have met him or seen him on tv however he humbled himself and made an apology for his actions and the actions of the church.. any bets on if the gb would ever do this?.

Unsubscribe
by why144000 inthinking about a recent post regarding correspondence regarding disassociation i would like to see a unsubscribe button on the front page of jw.org when i get useless spam emails there is usually an unsubscribe button to stop getting this crap sent to me.
usually i get one last email confirming my deletion.. if the society did put an unsubscribe button on their website i am sure it would be used so much it would melt down the site!.

JW's and the axe
by why144000 inthe current state of the jws reminds me of the old joke about the father passing on an axe to his son.
he says son, this axe has been used in our family for 5 generations.
we have changed the handle a few times and twice had to put on a new blade but it is still the same axe your great grandfather used.. .
