Online Bible Study! Yes they finally did it!
by Ray Frankz inhttps://www.jw.org/en/online-help/using-jw-org/online-bible-study-lessons/online-bible-study-lessons-video/.
since the org discovered the internet i saw that one day they would release an online bible study so the people didn't need the witnesses to be indoctrinated by the gb.
i have to admit that i didn't think they would do it now, without a great cerimony or announcement, but, hey, it's on!.

The Mormons seem to handle it okay. They have young adults manning their phones and chat site.
I have family background with LDS as well, so I tried 'reverse witnessing' if you will a couple of times with Mormon missionaries online. They're very sensitive to that though. Similar to JWs they only stick to a script and stock answers and when I veered from that even subtly they quickly ended the conversation.

Has anybody seen the new online Bible study yet, just posted yesterday I believe? It's the first thing you see now when going to the home page. About it, it says:
The Online Bible Study Lessons on jw.org are free, have no obligation, and are easy to use. Learn at your own pace in the privacy of your own home. You won’t need to register or provide personal information.
However they haven't gone all digital yet. There's the disclaimer:
These lessons do not replace our personal Bible study program.
This digital "study" is not study at all. It has three brief units, and a lot of it is grade school level interactive visuals to keep you stimulated.

My first R movie was Passion of the Christ, and that was shortly before I fully woke up. The rating system is often inconsistent. You'll have an otherwise clean movie rated R for a few F words or something, and then there's some PG-13 films I've seen that should've been rated R for the graphic violence, gun deaths etc. I don't mind R rated films that are justified in their content, but it seems that many are 'aiming' for an R and it comes off as shoehorned and cringy like middle school mentality, 'look at me, I'm rated R, ooooh'

Hasn't an elder asked you the magic question yet, whether you believe that God is using the FDS? Also, you could be disfellowshipped for posting here, because you're 'associating' with some who are disfellowshipped themselves. -

Instead of glorifying a person, like on a birthday, how much better to glorify materialism!
“Instead of having Christmas or any other holiday, we have Big Toys Day.

Paradise delayed and the marshmallow test
by Mickey mouse ini recently read a book called the marshmallow test by walter mischel.
it describes research which stemmed from an experiment in the 1960s where children were offered the choice of 1 treat, sometimes a marshmallow, or 2 treats if they can wait a while.
one of the unexpected findings was that children who perform well in the test (delay gratification) generally have a better chance of having a happy successful life, even earning more than their peers who wanted the treat right away.

Welcoming Our Latest JW Apologist JTrottigy
by pale.emperor ini'd like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome our newest jw apologist jtrottigy.
.
he'll likely only be here for a few days like most jw defenders before he runs away when presented with his own doctrine.. so far he's already said some hilarious stuff, like "there's no such thing as nepotism in jehovah's organisation", "confidentiality is paramount to elders" and, my personal favourite "the overlapping generation is so simple to understand".. yh don't think i don't remember you from jwtalk..

Female JW parking "attendants"
by neat blue dog ini was shocked recently to see on social media a couple pictures of jw sisters at a convention working as parking "attendants".
i put that title in quotation marks because they still don't get the official attendant badge like the male parking attendants do, only the reflective vest.
has anybody else heard of this .

It's ridiculous they don't get the attendant badge if that's what they're doing. What's the 'scriptural precident' for that? Unless all it is is a badge of honor for pathetic JW males. 🤔
