The Bible and Gospel Trust. etc., etc.....United57 said:Hopefully they are not a registered charity because their rules discriminatory.
Oh my! They really are just a society of idiots. Thank goodness they're so exclusive!peebs said:ery similar to the Watchtower relationship with Jehovah Witnesses, the Bible & Gospel Trust has an assured market within the Exclusive Brethren cult. Exclusive Brethren must purchase ‘ministry’, hymn books and bibles from this single source. As an EB teenager begins to earn money, the local EB Assembly ‘BGT Agent’ will approach the young person and let them know that they are expected to purchase the collected writings of all EB leaders, right back to J. N Darby and the mid 1800′s. It’s quite an investment – and the purchase is mandatory.

Well said. If they want to live in the UK and take benefit from it then they should be part of it. If not there are plenty of places where they can go but I doubt if they will be as accommodating.shoes said:On the contrary, they should be forced to attend high schools so that their children at least get a choice of whether or not to waste their entire lives!
I understand that if a child has ever been to a school then Ofsted remain involved throughout, but if they never go to school, then you can do what you like.tek-monkey said:TBH I have enough issues with faith schools, but faith home schooling? How much does that cost to administer, and make sure they actually get qualifications etc? Really shouldn't be allowed, 'religious reasons' should never be allowed to interfere with standard practice.
Anyway, I have cider now so shall relax.......
If they can be a charity, then so can I..tek-monkey said:I shall deliver a case forthwith, can you donate alcohol to charity?
