the only reason they ask for a donation is because if they ask for the money as they did before, then tax becomes involved like GST.....they dont have to pay that on donations

yes i realise people still dont like jews these days but back when hitler was in power he treated them very badly, taking their valuables and their lives......millions were killed....that movie i was watching, it said that the germans would blow up some of the gas chambers to try to cover "it" up

I WANT REVENGE!!!!!
by worldlygirl inwell, it has finally happened.
my jw husband came home last week and told me he is moving out.
it seems he has been talking to the elders, and they feel his spirituality is being threatened (even though i have not insisted he stop going to meetings, i won't allow any jw material in my home because of my children from a previous marriage - i don't want them exposed to it.

if the bills are just in his name, then YOU dont have to pay them do you? because they havent got your name on them. if they are in both your names, thats different.....

As a YOUNG loyal JW, did you think you would see you're 60th birthday ?
by run dont walk inwith all the talk in the organization about the end being so close, and we have all heard this story over and over again for years, as a young/loyal jw, did you think you would see your 60th birthday.. if we were to walk into the kingdom hall today and poll all the jw's under 30, and ask them "will you see your 60th birthday", what kind of response would you get ???.
armageddon is not coming, the year 2014 will pass, as will 2025, 2075, 2100, and even 3000. .
would love to hear experiences from some of the older ones on this board, who probaly thought the same thing when they were young.

Do Circuit Overseers Give Up Their Lives For Jehovah?
by minimus ini've heard for years how we should really appreciate the circuit overseers and their wives for all that they give up to enter the circuit work... do you think that's true?
?

fairy
well, i can remember that when the elders knew the circuit overseer was coming, they use to ask who wanted to work with them in field service and put peoples names down for whatever time they wanted to work with them in the field service and also they use to ask who wanted to have them around for meals, like lunch and dinner but mainly dinner i think and i know that people use to give them money and other little gifts. and i am sure there were donations given to the circuit overseer as well to cover other expenses
there were some that were very nice and there are definitely some that use to think they were just it.
