" Which is better minimum wage or minimum income " ?
Neither. Better wage and better income is what people need. Peace out, Mr. Flipper
Couldn't say it any better myself.
we were having this discussion in the office the other day and we came to the conclusion minimum wage is better because it still adds to the economy vs minimum income which someone could potentially stay at home and do nothing and still get paid without producing a thing for the greater economy.. thoughts?.

anyone on here an ex accounts servant?
i’d be interested in a projection of what percentage of contributions come from elderly jw’s.
i.e, money that will be diminishing over next 5 or 10 years as these ones pass on.. i estimate that in one of my previous congs 50% of the contribution totals of approximately £400 each month were being made by the over 70’s demographic.. within the other 50% were pioneers and low paid workers who put in regular but small amounts.. i guess when the accountants ring the alarm bells you start cutting the biggest costs; full time servants, buildings, printed literature.
In my old congregation 5 people contributed over 75% of the contributions. That's 5 people out of about 95. The other 90 contributed on average about $2 or so each. It was pitiful. I should amend that...out of the other 90, about 10 of them contributed about $20 each. The rest of the congregation didn't do diddly.
on another thread, undercover suggested "adam and the dinosaurs".. i came up with these:.
green bible dinosaurs.
jezebel and the fornicators.

meetings are boring for young kids and old but i'm going to focus on young kids 5 or 8.. i think is unfair that young kids get punished for falling asleep or zoning out.. as meetings are not as boring but i have to go to school the next day and staying up till 10pm isn't the best i can't get out of going.. but think of the young kids that dont even understand most of the teachings.. i know most on the site are adults but i heard of adults falling asleep..
I remember brother "elder full of himself" had a local needs part about falling asleep during the meeting a few years ago. Sister "longtime pioneer" about 5 minutes into the part let out a loud 'snort' because she fell asleep. That brother was soooo upset. We even had an attendant meeting about waking ones up gently by going up to them and tapping their shoulders to wake them. It was in retrospect very amusing. Personally, I never really cared. I was more upset by the 5 to 8 y/o having their farting contests.
on another thread, shadow asked pimojw, a newbie still serving in a congregation, "how about the overlapping generation?
do you know anyone who actually believes that?
"answer was "no i dont!
I still have my feet in the door because of family ties. And I can tell you that I know more of recent "light" than professed believers. When I tried to explain the overlapping generations to my still in cousin, he was appalled by it and turned me into his elders! I wish I could have been there!!!!!
i should know the answer to this but my memory is failing big time.
our friend just called who is still in the cult.
he's been away from it for about five months now.
He can be DFed for anything that a judicial committee agrees to. "Brazen Conduct" will be the excuse.
these people won't state anything definitively, but here's an excerpt from the study article entitled "making christian marriage a success", in the august, 2016 watchtower.
it does make me wonder.. although the bible does not provide specific rules about the kinds and limits of love play that might be associated with natural, sexual intimacy, it mentions displays of affection.
(song of solomon 1:2; 2:6) christian marriage partners should treat each other with tenderness.
I seriously find it hard to swallow.

Their view towards oral sex blows. No, actually it sucks.
