Who watches where the WTS's money goes?
by meglet44 ini've given this site a cursory look and didn't find this particular topic.
so my question is: who makes sure the high ups at the watchtower society aren't lining their pockets with all the money the members contribute?
i asked my jw-raised boyfriend and he said that they were honest people and god was watching over them.

GERMAN JWS DURING WWII
by heyfea ini saw the documentary secret lives: hidden children and their rescuers during wwii.
i was really touched by the stories of survival and the courage shown by lot of german families, as well as polish, french, etc, who hid jewish children during the war, even when they knew they could suffer the same fate as the jews if caught.
many times in the watchtower we read stories of german jws who were sent to concentration camps.....but they only went because they were jws, not because they risked their lives in order to save jews.

Children preaching in the freezing rain.

i thought that the parents were absolut morons.
now that i'm out, i think, the jws parents are also morons.
