the president of the united states says we have to do something about this.
many politicians and people agree that we are all affected by the scourge of systemic racism.
what’s your view of this?
I know for a fact you are not black, just by your comments and opinions on black issues, despite me never seeing you state the colour of your skin.
I guess you never heard of David Webb, Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder or Candace Owens. Or maybe 'they ain't black' as one might say? It's a big world outside MSM, why don't you go out sometime?
i picked this book up at a flea market for three bucks.

I forget which one but one of the Rutherford books has a painting of Jesus dying on the cross with two men having sex in the background.

the big a was here some said.

If you read Russell's volumes of Millennial Dawn/Studies in the Scriptures he mentions so many obscure political and social happenings that seemed like a noteworthy "sign" to him at the time, but are unremembered & laughably insignificant now. The same thing has always happened with cults before and after in time. That's why education is important, to view yourself, your life and surroundings in perspective.
i had seen a video evens did where he said that jws now say if you gambling for entertainment its ok. anyone have any link to the cult actually in print or video saying this?.

That's been lightened to, they said not every instance of smoking is judicial, just private council might suffice.

i was just watching an old episode of criminal minds and there was this description of cults:.
"cults commonly have their own language.
they invent or redefine certain words only the cult members understand.
I think there's a difference between having unique jargon, (LDC, CotBoE, pioneer etc.) and REDEFINING words and concepts, (spiritual, kingdom, christendom etc.)
the pandemic has made the situation worse for single young jw girls.. i'm hearing tons of sad stories of single jw girls who are going, or have gone into deep depression.
with many having thoughts of committing suicide and hoping for a better life in the new order.. the pandemic has made it almost impossible for young jw girls to find a suitable marriage mate.
especially since the single jw boys-men want young, gorgeous, thin, virgins, who look like models and summit to the headship arrangement.
My congregation had 3 young folks in their early twenties that left over the course of the 'pandemic' (all separate instances; one threatened suicide and so wasn't disfellowshipped)

I believe the Elders book also says that celebrating a birthday is also not a disfellowshipping offense, but current articles still use the phraseology that JWs 'do not' gamble or celebrate birthdays. So in practice, nobody will dare to do it... kind of like growing beards.
i don't think anyone has mentioned that the february 2021 study wt (p. 15, 16; par.
8) changed wt's long standing view on headship within the congregation.
wt used to view all baptized males as being the head of all baptized sisters.. this view led to such absurdities as a sister having to wear a head covering on a bible study because her baptized 10 year old son was sitting in on the study with her.
The WT article in question reenforces the practice of head coverings around any baptized male (or unbaptized husband). It says that they are not every sister's head, BUT that it's for organization's sake, so nothing is changed.

I was just watching an old episode of Criminal Minds and there was this description of cults:
"Cults commonly have their own language. They invent or redefine certain words only the cult members understand. It's a way of isolating the members from outsiders. It's a very powerful form of thought control."
Ironically, JWs redefine the very word "cult" out of necessity, saying it can only apply to a group with a SINGLE charismatic leader = Therefore, they aren't a cult!
