Does the Watchtower has a suggestive (quota) on how much you should donate?
by run dont walk inwith a possible fall out in the financial area, the watchtower "could" (probaly won't) be in for some hard financial times.. with all the new fancy building, printing presses, halls etc, etc, etc.. now, i haven't been to a meeting in 15 years, i don't remember back then, but is there "an unwritten rule" (10% of your check) about how much money you should give to the wts.
that the congregation kind of follows ??????????.
do you think the watchtower will lower themselves more and ask people to start giving more ????

I am now officially Disfellowshipped
by kelpie intalk about kicking you when you are down!
you all know i just lost my first baby through miscarriage and that my mum was supportive through out the whole ordeal... well it didn't last.
she called me last night and informed me that there had been a committee meeting held and that the elders had decided due to the circumstances that they would disfellowship me.

What do you believe happens after death?
by JH in.
do you believe that the dead are really dead, unconscious, without life, like the watchtower taught us, or do you think that they are still alive, but in another world or another form?.
do you believe that you had a previous life before this one?.

I want to tell my parents
by Freedomrules ini'm debating how/or is i should tell my parents about my not believing in the org anymore.
i haven't been an active witness for 8 years, and my family and i celebrate bdays and thanksgiving and a couple other holidays (i can't do halloween or christmas, nothing to do with being an ex-wit, i just have personal issues with those).
i know they will be devastated, might cut me off.

Did elders have more?
by freedom96 inthe question here is a general one, and i am sure that there are exceptions.. did elders have more than others in terms of material possesions?.
my experience was that they did.
the majority of elders i knew had money, or at least good jobs, and were in the top income brackets at least in the hall if not compared to most.. i am not saying they were rich, but better off than most.
