Alex Jones, Infowars Ban on Youtube, FB and other platforms
by pleaseresearch inwhat are you thoughts on this?.
i find this alarming because jones was very outspoken and had great guests on discussing topics most other media outlets wouldn't go near.. the fact that many have restricted him access to their medium what does this say on our freedoms of speech?.

Nature is amazing :)
by LoveUniHateExams ini studied biology at uni and specialised in animal biology (wolf behaviour) but i've always liked natural history.. even if i never went to uni, i'd still be amazed by nature and i'd still watch nature programs on tv.. i'd like start a thread where posters can post nature clips that are in some way amazing.. the vid below shows wild wolves in the canadian arctic encountering humans for the first time.. these wolves haven't been exterminated by human hunters and therefore haven't learnt to fear humans.
result: wild wolves approach human strangers almost like dogs.
pretty cool.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izgavk7fovu .

(How) Will The Slow and Subtle WT Internal Shift Affect Us?
by Solzhenitsyn inas a "deep pimo" i can say that there is a confirmed re-branding.
the coordinators committee formed a focus group from service and teaching committees.
the results of that group roughly three+ years ago, with gb approval, trickled down to the other committees and eventually into what we have been seeing before our eyes in the org and local congs.. pick an organizational level and see the shift.

As for the CLAM, there is material, but I would not call it "studying", it is all presented for us to parrot.
Your right, thats MUCH different than the wt study has been for the past 50 years. What was i thinking...

But I just don’t think JWs without books makes any sense. It won’t fly. Publishing and studying texts is essentially what it is to be a JW. It’s like trying to have a bat without wings.
Lol and we have now have a collapse thread! Been kind quiet recently, im glad all is well in collpase land, slim one.
I agree with you, in principle, on the “writing and studying are fundamental to the jw experience”. Where i see a flaw, and i hesitate to point this out, oh slim one, is that they still write. Its all online my friend. They even still publish physical items, i smaller quanties.
What we are witnessing is transformation. They are still growing. Thats the opposite of collapse.
Words matter.

Very interesting dreary... it gives some needed context. If brooklyn isnt allowed to send money then the letter makes a lot more sense

she just happened to post on an apostafest thread on facebook for an event that i attended, saw that we lived in the same place, and i met her for the first time tonight.

On the freedom of religion aspect, point out that baptised jw’s face sanctions if they want to change religion.

I find the question intrusive. I am offended. Personal boundaries anyone?!
