Many 2x2s and ex-2x2s focus on the doctrinal problems of 2x2ism. A few others focus on the abusive nature of the organization. But even less actually focus on the business model - and yes it is a business. All churches are businesses. It's just that all normal churches are Non-Profit Businesses, rather than For-Profit Businesses.
Ask yourself - is 2x2ism a Non-Profit? Is it registered as a Non-Profit? No it is not. All normal churches are registered as Non-Profits, because not registering as a Non-Profit means the IRS will tax you as a For-Profit business. 2x2ism is not registered as much of anything, except when registration can be used to petition for immigration visas as a 'legitimate' religious organization or attempt to get military service waivers for its ministers. Does 2x2ism have financial records that it shares with its members? No it shares nothing. It's 100% secret. It's financial assets are all hidden. Non-Profits do not behave like this. Non-Profits must file financial statements annually which are available for all the world to see, such as this. The 2x2 business model is one of the most incredible systems I have ever seen. It is a For-Profit global business scheme that is comprised of a series of independent business units. Here is how it works. Each business unit consists of a group of 'development officers' who's entire function is to solicit money from innocent people. But instead of calling them 'development officers' as most churches would, the 2x2s call them 'Workers'. Does it surprise you that these Workers are not trained in seminaries or any other religious training? They don't need to be, they are not in the business of spreading the Gospel, they are in the business of taking money. They are Working alright, working at taking money. The innocent people they take money from are called Friends. Isn't that a nice word instead of what these types of people are normally called (suckers). Have you ever thought about the 2x2 propaganda that they "don't take collections"? It's true they do not pass a collection plate in the meetings. But have you ever asked yourself why? It's pretty obvious when you understand how the whole thing works. It's the classic con job. The 'Workers' insist there are no money collections taken in their 'meetings' in order to gain the trust of their 'marks'. That's the first step in the con, gaining the confidence of the 'mark'. Then the 'Workers' explain about their great 'sacrifice' to be homeless and penniless for you the sinner. You feel like you have been given an undeserving gift, a gift that you must reciprocate with some small token to show your gratefulness. It's no surprise that then privately the issue of the 'needs of the kingdom' are brought up, and money is handed over from the mark AKA Friend AKA sucker to the 'Worker'. The Workers can keep a small amount of their 'take' for themselves, but most of it is sent up the ladder to the regional overseers. What is unique about the 2x2 business model is how small the commission the Workers can keep for themselves - next to nothing. This is because in other organizations the 'development officers' have to pay for their own housing and living expenses out of their earnings. But in the 2x2 model, not only are the 'Friends' being fleeced for money, but the 'Friends' are also charged with covering all the living expenses of the 'Workers' by providing them housing, transportation, food, etc. This is brilliant! 2x2ism has figured out a way to offload the majority of its expenses directly onto the suckers it is fleecing! Amazing! A side note about it being a con-artist operation. How do we know that for certain? Because it's part of 2x2 doctrine! - the Living Witness Doctrine. 2x2 ministers claim that no one can be 'saved' unless that person hears the 'gospel' verbally spoken from the mouths of 2x2 ministers in person - that the 2x2 ministers have some sort of magical power to 'save' people by speaking. And by 'gospel' we don't mean reading the Gospels, no - we mean only the 2x2 ministers' sermon. A sermon which likely has little to no Gospel content in it at all. What other operations insist on in-person sales-pitches like this? I'm sure you can think of why they insist on an in-person sale-pitch, just as the snake-oil salesman does. How much money does 2x2ism have? Annually, more than $90 million per year. There is accumulated wealth of well over $1 Billion. Here are some numbers: Lets assume that there are 100k friends and that the average given to the workers is a low $500 per year - yeah some don't give any but some give at least that each week and even more come convention time - so that's $50mm total income. We'll be generous and assume there are still 2500 workers of whom 500 are on rest at any given time and say they're each given $500 annually from the common pot and we'll round that up to $1.5mm in direct expenses. Say another outlay of $20k for each of 450 convention - several cost more to put on even with donations of food, flights, etc., but many more would require much much less than that - and that's another $9mm in direct expense. We'll also be generous and say that each pair of workers holds one gospel meeting per month in a rented hall that costs $500 - some don't pay at all but some do - so that's another $500k in direct expenses. Food and transportation and clothing and the occasional trip home and medical and lodging are all provided and even those younger workers whose older companions don't share the cash inflow sometimes have to get by with just that but lets say there's another $2000 per worker in discretionary spending per worker per year so that comes to another $5m. That leaves $34mm cash left over each year that should go back to the overseer/trustee accounts each year. I think its way more than that, but lets assume its just that. + 50,000,000 income - 1,500,000 worker start-off cash - 9,000,000 convention expense - 500,000 gospel meeting expense - 5,000,000 worker discretionary spending = $34,000,000 Excess profit from operations goes to Overseers annually And the excess annual income is even before adding income from the messier areas of inheritances - whether cash bequests or entire estates left to the workers individually or directed to the overseers to be placed in trusts - and funds donated by newly recruited workers. Both have been going on since the early days and tho that's income that comes in regularly I think its harder to estimate averages. Some don't leave anything to the workers and some just leave a small amount but some have left their entire estates - I know of one family where the children were left with nothing other than a few mementos and the overseer got all the properties of the wealthy parents. Some workers turn over all to the overseer and some give away to relations or others they know. Individual workers get cash and other gifts apart from their 'ministry' functions too - even some junior workers I knew got some surprising generous gifts. Let's see what sort of inheritance/bequethments 2x2ism gets: 100,000 friends is about 50,000 2x2 households, 300K average household net worth, 2x2s give 10% of net worth to Overseers. $30k x 50k households = $1.5 Billion in assets will be Willed to Overseers!!! Assuming that most of those households are retired folks equally distributed between the age of 65 and 90, then each year for the next 25 years as they folks die, Overseers will take in $1.5 B / 25 = $60 million per year!!! Here is an actual legal clause crafted by the California Overseer for 2x2s to put in their Wills. It does not state the assets are to go to a Trust, because it does not! It says the assets go directly to the Overseer or 2x2 Royalty. Imagine that! The document even mentions that your lawyer will find this clause too vague! Imagine that!! We know that this sort of transfer of estates to the 2x2 Royalty is the primary source of money for the 2x2 system. And we know that Overseers and high-ranking 2x2 ministers spend a great deal of time with elderly congregant, 'keeping them on the path to heaven' - these are called 'Field Visits'. In most regions there is a carved out period of time after conventions for these 'Field Visits' to be conducted to ensure that the near unto death 'faithful' are committing their estates to the 2x2 system. And what are conventions actually for? The 4 day conventions are psychologically, emotionally, and spiritually abusive brainwashing camps, where existing members are separated from society and have their minds warped and coerced by the VIP 2x2 ministers (the most effective salesmen). Why do you think California spends over $100,000 per year flying 2x2 ministers around the globe? To parachute in the top snake-oil salesmen to other areas. Here is a global list of 2x2 conventions to see the magnitude of the effort. In addition to the money changing hands in the 2x2s, there is also the matter of the undeclared non-monetary benefit of all the housing and food supplied by the congregants to the 2x2 ministers. The standard line is that the 2x2 ministers are simply guests in the homes of the laity, but in fact it is the 2x2 ministers who inform the laity that they (the ministers) will be staying in the laity's home for such and such days - it is not an invitation, it is a command. In other words, the laity homes act as a large AirBnB-type network which is accessible to the 2x2 ministers at any time they so desire without charge. Let's do a small thought example using just the 2x2 ministers in the UK to get a sense of the magnitude of this undeclared benefit: - 40 2x2 ministers (16 male, 24 female) - 40 x 365 days = 14,600 days of undeclared benefit per year for the UK alone. - Average day benefit monetized = $200 - $2,920,000 undeclared benefit per year for UK alone! If we extrapolate that from the UK to the global 2x2 minister population of about 2000 ministers, it works out to $146,000,000 per year undeclared benefit!!! All of the money that is sent up the ladder to the Overseers of each region (business unit), is then passed on to a few select 2x2 members who manage it. These select members pretend to be just ordinary 2x2 folk, but in fact they are not. They are the financial controllers of the entire 2x2 enterprise. They are 2x2 Royalty. If you have been in 2x2ism for a while and have gotten to know a lot of people in it, you will have gotten to learn who the 2x2 Royalty are. They use the monies that 2x2ism pumps into their accounts for their own investments and businesses. All of this money was obtained illegally. It is not a registered non-profit. It is not tax exempt. It does not file taxes. It is all hidden monies. In other words, it is money-laundering. The money is not held in bank accounts, because that would be far too obvious for the IRS to pick up on. Instead the money is run through the business enterprises of these 'royalty' 2x2s. Used to buy real estate, etc. We know of certain 2x2 Royalty who have entire real estate empires with multiple guest cottages for high-status 2x2 ministers to 'relax' in. Even in some of the smallest 2x2 US states, there is in excess of $15 million held by one single 2x2 Royalty member. Imagine what the situation is in Washington, Oregon, and California. British Columbia and Alberta have vastly over $15 million between them. Why do I know that it is an illegal enterprise? Because of how the money is handled. Let's follow a typical money transaction. The Friend gives cash to the Worker. If the Friend gives a check, the Worker will endorse the check to another Friend in exchange for cash - the reason is to make sure all the money never enters the formal banking system where it can be tracked. The Worker keeps all this cash on hand until a personal interaction with an Overseer (convention, special mtg, etc), where it is handed over to the Overseer. The Overseer then hands this cash off to a Royalty 2x2 member. The Royalty 2x2 cannot deposit this money in a bank account of any kind. Even if a legal Trust was set up, the money could not be deposited in it since the money would then set off alarms with banking authorities and tax authorities. They would have to pay tax on it -perhaps even 35% tax. If 2x2ism was a legit organization, they would put this money in an account, and then they would have to pay tax on it. They would quickly realize that they don't like losing 35% in tax, so they would incorporate as a legal non-profit so that they would not have to pay tax. But in becoming a non-profit, they would then insist on all donations to them be made by check to the legal name of the non-profit so that they could comply with federal tax and anti-money-laundering laws, and 2x2 members would be given tax receipts for their donations. However, 2x2ism is not registered as a non-profit nor is it giving out tax receipts, so that means that the money cannot be deposited into a bank account by the Overseer or by a 2x2 Royalty member. Where is the money being stored? The 2x2 Royalty member uses the money in their own personal businesses and investments (real estate, etc). This way the dirty 2x2 money is mixed with legitimate business money and disguised so that the tax authorities are not tipped off. This is classic money-laundering. After the money has passed through the legitimate business, it is then able to be deposited in bank accounts. You might be thinking, "It's all just gift money from the Friends, and the Friends paid taxes on that money, so why would the Workers have to pay taxes on it". You yourself probably have received gifts of money and never declared it to the IRS. Or perhaps you aren't knowledgeable about the US Tax Code. The trouble is the size of the gift. Imagine if you were depositing cash in your bank account of $10,000 or more every month (Overseers take in a lot more money than that). Now imagine that you are a drug dealer and you are making those same deposits. The bank doesn't know if you are a drug dealer, it just knows that you are making large cash deposits, and that you have no other real income in that account from a traceable source. The bank then will red flag your account and report you to the authorities for potential money-laundering. You see, it's not that you received a money gift, it's that you have frequent large money gifts from an untraceable source, which sets off the bank's alarms. What I am trying to get at is that it's not just a tax issue, but it is also a banking anti-money-laundering issue. Imagine what the FBI would think when they investigate someone for potential money-laundering, and the person says "I'm an pastor in a non-registered church with no name and no organization. This money I receive is all just gifts from people who like me. Yes, it's all cash gifts, but that's their choice." The FBI will start to laugh and have you in handcuffs so fast that your head will spin. And it is because of this that the Overseers cannot allow all that 2x2 money to go into the banking system. And because the money is not going into the banking system, then for certain they are not paying tax, and for certain they are laundering it with the Royalty 2x2s. Perhaps you have been told that the 2x2 money is all in Trusts. Do you know what a legal Trust Agreement is? A Trust is a legal entity with a fixed life that at the point of setting it up designates a real beneficiary. This initial constitution of the Trust, or rules about how the Trust is to operate, cannot be changed once it has been setup. So ask yourself, why would 2x2ism use Trusts which have to name a real beneficiary, when 2x2 has no legal entity of its own to be that legal beneficiary, so the real beneficiary would have to be an actual person (overseer or 2x2 royalty). Furthermore, if that beneficiary decides to leave the 2x2s, he will remain the beneficiary of that Trust - not good for 2x2ism. A Trust cannot be 'passed on' from one person to another once it is set up. This is why 2x2ism does not use legal Trusts, instead it uses personal accounts of 'trusted' 2x2 Royalty, and it launders the money through these people. There are no 'Trust' accounts, despite what 2x2s think. Note, that even if the money is in a 2x2 Royalty account, that person can borrow against that account for their own purposes. You might be thinking that the 2x2 ministers themselves file tax returns just like everyone else. No they do not. Overseers specifically instruct 2x2 ministers to NOT file a tax return. Why would they do that? Even if you don't have much income, it's a a good idea to file a tax return in order to create a paper trail for the IRS, and perhaps to qualify for any unearned income tax credit. But no, they are told not to file. The reason is that filing would create a way for Federal law enforcement to track them. What are they going to put on the tax form as to where all the money they got came from? They don't have a legal employer. They are free-lance contractors for an illegitimate organization - exactly the same as how a mafia runs. In summary, follow the money flow. Only criminal enterprises would go to such extreme methods to avoid registering as a non-profit. Think about all those sizable bequethments from dead people - just how exactly is that money getting into the accounts of an overseer? Simple. The bequethment is a check made out to a 2x2 Royalty member, a regular inheritance type of deal, which the 2x2 Royalty then deposits in his own personal checking account. The 2x2 Royalty member then gives cash to the overseer - the money is now outside the banking system. An Overseer and some 2x2 Royalty have already been criminally charged in Australia for money-laundering, see here or here. One of the biggest scams that the 2x2 ministers use is to defraud elderly 2x2 members by gaining control of their assets via Power of Attorney and then by moving the victims's assets to accounts of 'elders' or overseers. This has happened many many times. A 'helpful' 2x2 elder will offer to be PoA for the victim, and will convince the victim to not mention this to the victims next of kin - this is quite easy if the victim has no 2x2 children. Later when a next of kin discovers what has happened, the victim is too ashamed to say anything, even if they are competent to understand what happened, and the relatives are led to believe this was all the victim's wishes. One thing to keep in mind is that nearly everyone in 2x2ism is living in fear, and so they can be manipulated by higher-ups for basically anything. The 'elder' who has Power of Attorney on an elderly member is most likely is being blackmailed by someone higher up to get him to do these scams. Perhaps he messed with little kids. Perhaps he is a closet homosexual. Or just the fact that his name is on one scam, means that the higher up can rat him out if he doesn't do more scams. These people use blackmail to keep the whole thing going and to keep people from going to the authorities. The regular 2x2 sheep won't even speak up because they have been conditioned to think 'worker' = God, and therefore anyone who suggests 'worker' (or even fellow 2x2) did something wrong, is themselves the bad person for making this suggestion. If the sheep don't side with the 'worker', then the threat of shunning is enough for them to get back in line. Sometimes even heavy handed things happen to keep people in line such as 'suicides'. The 'suicide' victim in this particular case was the lieutenant of the UK overseer - alleged to be the wealthiest overseer in the world. Ask yourself, how easy is it for an adult to drown themselves in a bathtub? It's nearly impossible because even if the person goes unconscious, at the slightest intake of water into the lungs, the body will shoot out adrenaline to wake the person and have them flailing about to get out of the water. The only way to drown oneself in a bathtub is to first overdose on drugs or to electrocute oneself in the tub. Or of course, have someone hold your head underwater so that your involuntary flailing is unsuccessful. A key difference between 2x2ism and other cults is that most other cults (Scientology included) are actually registered as non-profits, which means that they have to spend all that money they take in. That's why most other cults have huge campuses, visible real estate assets, publishing companies, etc. They need to do something with the money. 2x2ism, because it is not a non-profit, can sit on all that cash and is not forced to spend it on visible hard assets. And since 2x2ism is not a non-profit, then it should be paying tax on all that income - but it is not, instead it is money-laundering all that income into the personal businesses of a few Royalty 2x2 families. The fact that 2x2ism has hundreds of millions of dollars socked away, and never spends a cent on doing real charity work, and yet keeps taking money from its 2x2 members at every chance while pretending that 2x2ism is penniless organization, tells you that 2x2ism is most certainly a money oriented machine that cares only about enriching the Royalty 2x2s at the top of the pyramid. The beauty of this business model, despite being illegal, is that if one of the 'Workers' commits a crime such as sexually assaulting a child, the victims of the crime are unable to successfully sue for damages from the Worker since the Worker himself/herself has no personal assets to seize. In a normal organization, the victims could sue the organization as well. But in 2x2ism case who do you sue since you don't even know who controls what or where the money is? This is the exact legal defense that a 2x2 Overseer used - that he was not a minister since there was no church that he was a minister of, and therefore how could he be held accountable. Beautiful. This is exactly how organized crime is set up. Even worse, all that hidden away money is then used by Overseers to pay for expensive lawyers to defend any 2x2 minister charged with a crime. What a racket. Or to put it in legal terms - racketeering. Thankfully in the US the Dept of Justice can use the RICO act to pierce the organizational structure. I am certain that there has been not only a lot of CSA and other sexual abuse by 2x2s, but that there has been 'sharing' of victims (aka human-trafficking). This could be used as an example of criminal conspiracy, and thus triggering the RICO Act. There are two forms of human-trafficking going on with the 2x2s. The most obvious form is the trafficking across state lines of children for the purpose of sex with children by 2x2 ministers (and some rank and file members). The other type of human-trafficking is the trafficking of the ministers. Almost all 2x2 ministers are people who as children were raised by 2x2 parents, and specifically conditioned by 2x2ism and their parents to aspire to have a 'career' as a 2x2 minister - to do so is is considered the most important thing one can do with one's life. One of the hymns even uses the words "The Call to Labour". The conditioning process of the young children to aspire to be 2x2 ministers starts with the table-graces, then moves on to the hymns at 2x2 services (#402, #403, #406, #407, #408), to the particular bible verses which are emphasized by 2x2 bible studies and 2x2 services, and finally on to interactions which 2x2 ministers themselves - all of which have extremely heavy emphasis on giving one's life to 'labor in the field for the work as a servant of God'. In essence, a 2x2 childhood is psychological conditioning to recruit young people into the 2x2 system as 'ministers' aka human-labor. Why is this human-trafficking? Because being a 2x2 minister is effectively to be a slave - you are not permitted to have an sizable material possessions, no home (rented or owned), no vehicle, no spouse, no family, nothing other than being an itinerant 'minister' under 100% control of the 2x2 Overseers. From what you wear, how you cut your hair, what books you read, who you interact with, where you go, EVERYTHING - is only with the permission of the Overseer. You have been conditioned as a child to put yourself into slavery by an Overseer. You cannot escape so easily because you have no money, no home, no vehicle, no friends, no support network, etc outside of the 2x2 system. You are locked in. You are a slave. You are trafficked. Human-trafficking. Do you remember that Alberta 1995 fiasco with 2x2 Overseers setting up a Corporation in AB? What tends to get overlooked is that they set up a for-profit Corporation, not a non-profit. Think about that for a minute. Why would they do that? Why would they willingly set up something that would force them to pay income tax? The reason is that a corporation has shareholders, people who it can pay out its earnings to. A non-profit cannot pay out to shareholders. Notice on the AB incorporation papers who the shareholders are - Overseers. They were looking for a legal way to enrich themselves. Perhaps the cause of the entire Alberta scandal was that the Overseers wanted to keep the assets (mineral rights I think) for themselves instead of handing it off to the 2x2 Royalty. Don't you find it interesting that the incorporation papers were made public - by whom? How did they even know to look for them? It's a needle in a haystack situation, so how did this information slip out? Obviously it was purposefully leaked. And what sort of person would know about it and then decide to leak it? Someone who stood to lose a lot of money - a 2x2 Royalty person. From looking at Alberta Worker Lists on the TellingtheTruth site we notice something very interesting. The two 2x2 ministers seemingly most on the frontlines of carrying out the Great Purge of 1999 were inevitably sent off to other countries as punishment for how bad they handled it. Jim Knipe went to Argentina, and Gwen Fipke is 'overseas'. That's a very important thing to understand. Knipe and Fipke were just carrying out orders from higher up, and so when it all spun out of control they were cast aside as fallguys. This tells you something very interesting about what the true priorities are at 2x2 Inc. We all know what happens when a 2x2 minister commits a felony crime such as child sexual assault - they get sent to another field, but still in the same country, perhaps just a few hundred miles away - where they can still solicit donations. That means that they can still interact with their parents, siblings, and friends pretty much as before. Notice what happened to Knipe and Fipke, they were sent thousands of miles away to countries they don't know the language. That shows you what sort of 'infractions' by a 2x2 minister are worse than others. Clearly causing a mass exodus of money-donating 2x2 members matters a lot more than committing a felony crime. Speaking of western Canada, do you remember the scandal of an overseer who attempted to transport $30,000 across the Canada/US border in a briefcase in the 1990s? This is a very good example of a situation where the money laundering almost got caught. First off, why didn't the overseer just wire transfer or use a check with the money instead of trying to transport such a large amount of cash? Remember that he would have had to convert it from Canadian Dollars to US Dollars at a bank before hand in small batches in order to not tip off the authorities. And by converting it like he did, the cost of conversion (the FX rate) would have cost him quite a bit. So economically speaking, transporting the cash was a stupid idea. But because he was money laundering, there was no other option. And the reason we know it was money laundering is because of what happened when he tried to cross the border. At the border the officer told him to declare any amount of cash he had greater than $10,000. The overseer refused to declare the money. It is not illegal to transport large amounts of cash across borders, but it is illegal to not declare it. Declaring it is just a matter of filling out a small form for the Border Officer - putting your name, passport ##, address, etc on it. Aha! But the Overseer refused to do this simple thing. Why? Obviously if he did fill out the form, then Federal law enforcement would have evidence of his transporting cash. So instead, the Overseer turned his car around and returned to Canada, where he gave the money to some 2x2 members instead to take care of, while he then attempted a second crossing of the border without the cash. That's the smoking gun right there. There is absolutely no reason to behave like this unless you are trying to hide something. Not too many people think about it, but what does 2x2ism do with its old 'Workers' AKA development officers when they can no longer solicit donations? These are people who gave their entire lives for a system and when they finally 'retire' they don't have any savings to pay for their retirement. And how do they pay for their medical care in the USA? You'd think that all those donations given by 2x2 members to 2x2ism would be used to help these old expired ministers. But no it's not. Instead a scam is used. Since they have never actually worked, they do not qualify for Medicare - free health care for old people. They also do not qualify for Social Security - old age pension. So how do they get by? Simple, by fraud. It works like this: At some point before they hit 65, they are 'employed' by a Royalty 2x2 family business. They don't actually work there, but they are put on the payroll. This way they can accumulate the much needed 10 years of work 'credits' with the Social Security Administration in order to qualify for pensions and old age free healthcare. It's a fraud. If they don't use that fraud, then they try another - the Medicaid fraud. Medicaid is free healthcare for the poor and indigent in the US, 2x2 ministers claim that they are poor (despite all this money the Overseers have) to qualify. Some enterprising 2x2 members then set up nursing/care homes for these old 2x2 ministers, taking in the US government's cash into their business. It's also a great place to launder some of the off-the-books 2x2 money. Have you ever wondered why 2x2 ministers travel to poor countries? Why are they sending 2x2 ministers to poor countries? There aren't enough 'suckers' in those countries to make it even break even. It's widely known that all of the 2x2 ministers in poor countries are only able to be there because of donations from 2x2 members in rich countries going directly to them. The 2x2 ministers in these poor countries don't live in the homes of the 'friends'. Why is that? Strange, no? In fact they live in quite nice apartments paid for by donations from their 2x2 member acquaintances back home. Very strange isn't it. Once you start to understand that 2x2 is a business, it all comes into focus. These 2x2 ministers in poor countries are used for a number of 'special assignments'. Things such as being a 'support team' for pregnant 2x2 female ministers from rich countries who need a discreet way to get rid of the baby. Acting as offshore banking fiduciaries. Offshore banks do not like to have accounts with US citizens. So non-US citizens are used as 'fronts' to open the accounts for Royalty 2x2s. Providing 'relaxation' locations for high-profile 2x2 ministers (mostly male) who want to 'let their hair down' without any prying eyes. Notice how many are in Thailand, land of sex tourism. It is also extremely likely that 2x2s are involved with international organ trafficking - either by sourcing organs in poor countries for use by 2x2s from rich countries, or by facilitating organ transplant in poor countries by a local doctor with a paid 'donor' from a rich country into a 2x2 from a rich country. 2x2 ministers are uniquely situated to facilitate this international transaction, just as rabbis have been convicted of for Jews. Ultimately, nearly all the hardcore 2x2 minister pedophiles who are in danger of being convicted in the USA, and quickly flown off to 'minister' in a poor country (along with a fat annual stipend from the Overseers to stay out of the the USA). It's important to notice that there are very few male 2x2 ministers in the poor countries - which is exactly the opposite of what one would think (sending lily-white female virgins to dangerous places). There is a reason for this - the male 2x2 ministers are needed back home in the rich countries to manage the 'Friends' AKA donors, especially the old ones regarding bequethments. Would you send your 18 year old naive daughter to a poor dangerous country where she doesn't speak the language, doesn't know much of anything about the world, etc.? No you would not. But it happens all the time to these young female 2x2 ministers. Why? It's obvious. They are the most expendable of the 2x2 ministers. They have the least amount of power. If they ever try to blow the whistle on what goes on, they are easily marginalized and shunned because they are female (in a male dominated cult) and they have very few connections back home to believe them. And they are also the most gullible, easy to give a nonsense rational for something offside and they will believe it. 2x2 overseers have sent multiple young female 2x2 ministers to Kazakhstan to 'minister', not exactly a good fit for an English-speaking naive little girl. And just how do these 2x2 ministers even go to third world countries? Don't most of these countries require a visa or don't many of them explicitly prohibit religious proselytizing? Well, the 2x2s have found a way around that - another scam. They apply for student visa's to 'study the language', and then once in the country start going after converts in an effort to get them to bequeath their property to 2x2 'ministers'. Of course, not to local 2x2 'minister', but to the big shots from US/Canada/Aus/etc. Do you remember the Vietnam scandal? That's exactly what it as all about. Have you ever wondered why there were/are such different rules of conduct between different regions of 2x2ism? No TVs, no divorce, no alcohol, etc in some areas while completely permitted in others. We have heard that this is due to the decisions of the different regional Overseers. But ask yourself, doesn't it seem strange that these Overseers would meet together and not come up with a common consensus of what was condoned 2x2 behavior? Having such very extreme differences in condoned behavior across regions seems like a very bad idea don't you think? People do talk after all, especially when the 2x2 ministers are preaching that 'One Way, Always the Same, Never Changing, etc'. The reason that there was no consensus between the Overseers about these issues is that the Overseers are not like bishops of a normal church, but instead the Overseers are the CEOs of their own totally independent organization for each region. They rarely ever meet with one another. In fact, it's widely known that in the US, the Eastern Overseer and Western Overseer hated each other - no kidding, they were not brothers-in-Christ, they are competitors. They each want to take over the other Overseer's regions. It's exactly like different mafia families fighting over territory. It's all for money. Have you ever wondered why do 2x2s not agree with the Trinity? Why do they take such a hardline on this. It seems strange....until you understand what accepting the Trinity would mean. It would mean the end of their 'Jesus showed us a life for us to pattern after' concept of submission to the 2x2 system. By removing the 'Jesus as a pattern' idea, that would change the concept 'daily dying' from meaning to suffer, to meaning to avoid becoming slave to one's passions. In other words, accepting the Trinity would mean that suffering to be 'true to The Truth, The Way, the Workers' would be unnecessary. This is exactly the same reason why 2x2ism will not permit a doctrine of 'Grace'. And it is this 'suffering in The Truth to be like Jesus' that keeps 2x2 members in their bondage to the 2x2 Overseers and system of spiritual abuse - to be cash cows for the 2x2 Royalty. You might be thinking, "are all Workers in on this big illegal scam operation?" No. Almost all of the 'Workers' are truly just that - workers - people diligently running around doing their job of soliciting money and thinking they are doing 'God's Work" of spreading the Gospel, a gospel they know essentially little about. It's only the people at the very top - the Overseers and some carefully chosen heirs to the Overseers - who know what is really going on. And it is only they who interact with the true Big Bosses - the 2x2 Royalty. The Overseers are sort of like the CEO, COO, CFOs of the organization - they run the day to day operations, they get some plum perks, etc. But it is the 2x2 Royalty who are the owners, the shareholders, the ultimate beneficiaries of this illegal operation. Given that 2x2ism is a large illegal scam operation, it seems pretty clear that all of the 'Workers' can be criminally charged for their part in it. I wonder how many of them realize that while they were innocently duped into their roles, that they could do prison time for their activities in soliciting and defrauding people. There is a statute of limitations I believe, so many of the folks who stopped being 'Workers' years ago will probably not be charged. The young person who joins 2x2ism's 'ministry' (and it's not a ministry, it's a con artist scam) must sell all of their belongings and give the proceeds to 2x2ism's big bosses. The new recruit has no home, no income, no vehicle, no savings, etc - they are completely at the whim of their 'bosses'. It's a life only a hair's breadth away from being homeless and starving. This creates some VERY perverse behavior from the 2x2 ministers. They must have 100% obedience to the 'big boss'. What a tyrannical system - worse than even any Totalitarian political system ever devised. To try to leave the 2x2 'ministry' on your own, you must have people outside who will help you - give you a place to stay, help you with money, etc. Imagine being sent to a foreign country where your support network is even less. Another interesting aspect of this job is the 'scandal' leverage that is used by the 'big bosses' against the 2x2 ministers. It is estimated at least 50% of 2x2 ministers have been involved in a sexual liaison with a 2x2 member (adult or child). Not to mention the numerous financial scandals. The entire edifice is a nest of dirty little secrets that are 'leaked' whenever the 'big bosses' want to punish someone. These implicit threats of exposing the scandals is what keeps so many 2x2 ministers from speaking up - even after they have managed to escape from 2x2ism. And because of the success of this mode of control, all sorts of situations and conditions are set up where the 2x2 ministers will be entrapped in a scandalous activity - precisely to achieve leverage over them. Why do you think known homosexual older male 2x2 ministers are frequently paired, not with other homosexuals, but with eager-to-please young male 2x2 ministers? So that inevitably a sexual event occurs which then can be used as leverage against both of them. Why do you think the laptop of a top 2x2 overseer was handed over to law enforcement after he was found dead in a hotel room? Because there was likely mountains of 'dirt' aka kompromat on that computer about hundreds of 2x2 ministers and elders. Also note that a 2x2 minister 'wiped' the cell phone of the overseer before handing it to police. The 2x2 minister took over 6 months before he gave computer and cell phone to police, and only did so at the insistence of outsiders. Are you thinking, "What can I possibly do about this?" Well, you actually don't have to leave 2x2ism, you can just stop giving money. Stop giving the 2x2 ministers ANY money, stop letting them stay in your homes, stop providing them with automobiles, and stop feeding them. The Overseers will have to start paying the 2x2 ministers in order to cover these operational expenses. Stop giving money for conventions, let the Overseers pay - they have the money after all. Make it be known that you will not be giving anything in your Will when you die to 2x2ism. Help your friends and relatives to stop giving also. Soon the fact that you are not giving money will be noticed and you will be spoken to. Take that opportunity to explain that you will start giving when 2x2ism is setup as a legal non-profit and publishes its financial records for all to see. I mean, even those 'false churches' do that for pity's sake. Very quickly, you will get a the full treatment by the overseers and high-ranking ministers. If that doesn't show you what the true goal of the ministry is (money), I don't know what will.
