Q: If they are encouraging the brothers and sisters to sell their houses and belongings and downsize why do GB need big fancy ass branches, won't they be the branches be the first on the list when the police start storming into the houses of JWs hauling them off to prison. Surely, the government would cut off the head of the serpent (ie the Branch) first?

i'm leaving this site forever
by stan livedeath inas the title says--i'm out of here for good.. the site is full of atheists, communists, 7th day adventists, creationists, believers, deceivers, receivers, football supporters,.
dodgy types, cantleave---and assorted wankers.. so no place for me--because i'm none of the above so dont fit in.
so--this is goodbye forever my friends--its been almost average knowing you.

What is it with the exit announcements. Personally, I don't take this site too seriously and am surprised when others do. It's just a hangout, people come, people go, people will talk shit for a while then go back to their lives, bit like friday night at the pub and nobody should take friday night beers and pizza talk too seriously. I was hurt by WT because I took it too seriously and mistook it for a family when it was actually a business, somehow I feel this place is the same - it's someone's business. We are all free to stay or go .

NYC cart people
by lrkr ini recently started working on a project in manhattan- in a very nice neighborhood.
just want to share a few observations on the cart witnesses in this area.. this is an area flush with dinero.
so every respectable non profit is out there hustling for donations.

They're probably sitting there praying no apostate (or anyone for that matter) spots them and starts asking embarrassing questions.

JW Cart Witnessing = ONE BIG JOKE
by Black Man inwas talking to a good buddy of mine a couple days ago (we pioneered and were in bethel together and have both left the cult a few years ago), about the current cart and d. and the consensus was that it is now a complete joke.
was watching a couple witnesses last week sit at a table with their literature display.
no approaching people for conversation, no initiating stimulating dialogue with passerbys, as was encouraged when i "pioneered" back in the day.

There is only one cart set up where I live and it's the same siters every week.
The good news is I have not observed actual D2D witnessing in my area for a couple years now. It used to be that I could not leave the house and do errands without seeing a group of about 4-6 of them congregated on corners and going house to house, but I never see them anymore not even during "special campaign" months.
Not one, not a peep!
The lack of activity all seems to be since the introduction of the carts and the website.
This area was very visibly active a few ago, they prided themselves on it - not now though.

Article: Jehovah’s Witnesses Promote Police Hatred at Summer Conventions
by freemindfade inbad timing for the bunker video with all the police drama going on.. https://www.the-newshub.com/general/jehovahs-witnesses-promote-police-hatred-at-summer-conventions.
recently one member after viewing the video material was triggered into climbing a bridge in australia and screaming about the ‘great tribulation” coming at any minute.
see picture above..

So typical. You can't expect genuine empathy or concern from fake people.
If you expressed an interest in returning to Jehovah however they may prolong their pathetic excuse for "care and concern" a little longer. JWs don't just give their love away for free, there has to be something in it for them.

Bethel Economy
by sp74bb inrevelation 6:6 kjv.
6 and i heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.. this prophecy starts to be true in south europe bethels..... according to our sources, bethel families have been asked to reduce their food allowance and even been informed that monthly contribution might not be paid.. meantime, one of these branches is sending millions of € every year as donation to other wt structures, not to mention the 7 digit number on their bank account.
bethel members are not blind ;).

Sorry crazyguy, I must have been writing my comment at the same time as you, not realizing it was already said.
Great minds and all😉
