Blowing the whistle on the Watchtower RACKET,an organization that is
selling millions of dollars of merchandise without collecting sales
tax.

The following letter was mailed out in quantity to the 50 states (Sales
Tax Fraud Divisions) in early 1997. The collecting of sales tax by
peddlers from customers is required in 49 of the 50 states.

Here is a facsimile of the letter I write in 1997:

ATTN: Certified Mail to
Criminal Investigation Tax Fraud Division
To all 50 USA states and all I.R.S. Offices

January 15, 1997

Dear Tax Office,

I am writing to blow the whistle on an organization I used to belong
to, an organization that is selling millions of dollars of merchandise
in this state without collecting sales tax.

The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York ships truckloads of
books, videos, tapes and assorted other merchandise to their Kingdom
Halls across the state. The members take these items from there and
sell them house-to-house, returning the money collected to the Kingdom
Hall, so that it can be mailed back to Brooklyn headquarters each
month.

They talk about "donations" but this is a thinly veiled tax-dodging
sales operation. Dunn & Bradstreet reports for recent years show their
sales in the $1 billion range, so the Jehovah's Witness are certainly
selling $--millions in this state.

The religious publishing operations and bookstores connected with other
churches are collecting and paying sales tax. As a taxpayer, I am
writing to blow the whistle and to ask what is going to be done about
the Watchtower's TAX EVASION.

Cave Of Robbers!Properties owned by the Watchtower Society are massive,
yet more and more contributions are expected from Jehovah's Witnesses,
no matter what kind of financial strains they may be experiencing
themselves as working parents, teens, or adults.

by Towerwatcher

The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses likes to pride itself by
claiming to be the sole channel for dispensing spiritual food at the
proper time to some six million of their faithful members.  The
Watchtower journal of /1967/Oct/1st/page-590/ states: "Jehovah's
Witnesses (must) recognize and accept this appointment of the "faithful
and discreet slave" and be submissive to it."  This quote is (not) a
request, it is a command, and this command has a habit of faithfully
and discreetly reaching down into the financial pockets of these six
million submissive members.

Properties owned by the Watchtower Society are massive, yet more and
more contributions are expected from Jehovah's Witnesses, no matter
what kind of financial strains they may be experiencing themselves as
working parents, teens, or adults.

The Watchtower has admitted itself that it does (not) view it's
thousands of Kingdom Halls, as well as skyscraping facilities in the
same way as the ancient Israelites viewed the temple of Jehovah.
Strangely enough, neither did those cave of robbers of Jesus' day that
He drove away from the temple!

The Israelites viewed Jehovah's temple with some sacredness and
respect, while the Watchtower buys, sells, and rakes in the profits
with no conscience necessary.  The Watchtower Society's Kingdom
Ministry of /1985/April/page-3/ states: "Although we do not view
Kingdom Halls in the same way that the tabernacle and the temple of
Jehovah were viewed in ancient Israel, it is appropriate to give
thought to the historical accounts that highlight the (spirit of
giving) manifested by Jehovah's worshipers during the time of those
building projects long ago."

One may ask, however,  just how far does the Watchtower apply those
words above which describe this spirit of giving?  Perhaps what the
Watchtower leaders mean by those words is that this "discreet slave"
will supply all the (spirit), and their members are to supply all the
financial giving!   Painfully though, the members may be required to
give until it hurts.  Did the ancient worshipers of Jehovah (require)
the lavish settings and surroundings?

One of the main questions people around the globe are asking is, why
would an organization who have reminded us several times that
Armageddon is just around the corner, be building such massive building
projects if these buildings will only meet their fate here in the near
future?

Certainly, the actions of the Watchtower Society do (not) display a
relationship, with the claims they have published in their own
literature about the closeness of time of the end.  In 2005 while all
of these building plans were taking place on schematics in the hands of
this "faithful and discreet slave," the same year's 2005 "Awake!" read
on page 4 the following:  "Most important, this magazine builds
confidence in the Creator's promise of a peaceful and secure (new world
that is about to replace the present wicked, lawless system of things.)

I had no other choice but to conclude, that either the information
contained in the "Awake!" published by Jehovah's Witnesses reeked with
an odor, or that the Watchtower's "faithful slave" thought that these
massive and expensive buildings, would serve as protecting Arks as in
Noah's day to help save the lives of all the believers.  I guess this
"faithful slave" forgot that even Noah's Ark acquired a (smell) after
awhile!

One fact remains clear any way you consider it, and that fact is, the
Watchtower is getting rich off the gold wedding rings, valuables, cash
donations, gifts, wills, insurance claims, untaxed interest, as well as
so-called disaster relief contributions for Worldwide work that rarely
fulfills the victims needs.  Perhaps the members "gold teeth" will be
"faithfully and discreetly" required next!

In searching for an applicable scripture to conclude my findings, I
managed to find one of the Jehovah's Witnesses Bibles at the local
library which read at Matthew 21: 13  "And he said to them: "It is
written, "My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making
it a CAVE of ROBBERS."  Yes,  when I applied that scripture to the
Watchtower Society, as surprising as it may seem, it occurred to me
that I actually found an unaltered true statement in the New World
Translation!
