There has to be money in it, if WT is doing it.

Telehealth Doctor's Visits Provided by JW Drs. - Coming Soon?
by JWTom inthere is a zoom meeting in our area this coming weekend to educate anyone with a healthcare background about "volunteering" to be part of providing health care through online zoom doctors visits.
evidently jw doctors across the us are volunteering to do free zoom consultations that are technically real doctors visits.
don't have many details other than i saw some of the letters from petra where people could sign up for this.. wondering if this is already happening in some areas or if anyone knows more about it?

It looks like many of the JW's we see around town.....old and dusty.
We had an Elder who had one with wheels. He had his little "rolly bag" and his wife had her little flat sensible shoes and sweater. Can't show those shoulders! They were always telling others their stories. The name dropper stories, oh we went here and we went there. They were the most "spiritual" in the land!!! lol
When I think back, it makes me sad that we wasted all that time in.

Pioneer School Funny Picture
by pale.emperor infound this on one of the exjw reddit pages.
a "hilarious" group photo.
another sign that this isnt the same religion we remembered of the 80s and 90s - and i dont mean that in a good, progressive way.. you can just smell the virginity oozing out of the front and back row.. .

Like it wasn't bad enough sitting in uncomfortable seats for 3 days! Now, you have to watch it at home. Well, I guess you could just say you watched it. lol Is WT going to be monitoring each individual who is watching?

My spouse was "encouraged" to reach out to be a MS. He kept his hours, just below the radar (6-7) and the CO wouldn't allow him to be one. Funny, how he intentionally kept those hours low. lol

Do You Think We Will Ever Get Back To “Normal”?
by minimus ini hope that within the next several months we will get back to some type of normalcy.
will restaurants ever get filled again?
will you ever be able to sit at a bar or go to a concert or broadway show?.

It will get back to normal eventually. It depends on where you live. Northern states are still in lock down. Here in the Southern US states, the restaurants are starting to pick up and the beaches are full.

My Mom died last week.
by Still Totally ADD inlast wednesday my elder brother called me to let me know mom had died.
she was 97 years old and was in a nursing home for the last 7 years.
her mind had left her many years ago to the point she didn't recognize any of us.

"He told me 10 years ago that he felt he would die in this system. So deep down there are doubts in his mind."
We had a family member (70's) tell us the same exact thing just a few years ago. She still holds true to the cult but there are deep deep doubts. She will never admit the doubts to us, now that she knows that we are out for good. She doesn't want to add that "feather in our cap."

So sorry to hear of your loss.
It is interesting that your brother has seemed a bit humbled. It makes you wonder if some of these active JW's are questioning their very beliefs. The end did not come, the way they were promised. Sad!

It's sad that so much fear is used. Our still in family is shaking in their boots. They know fear works and they use it every chance they get.
There's four people in this house that will NEVER "come back."
