Are any books being placed anymore?
by joey jojo ina recent post by atlantis/ petra was about destroying old books, some of which had been studied and placed over the years.. is witnessing these days only about directing people to jworg, are there books that are placed, or is hq concerned enough about having ever-changing beliefs in print that they avoid it?.

Friend Is Worried About My “Mental Health”...lol
by minimus inone of my tennis friends who happens also to be a nurse, told me today that he is concerned about my mental health because i support donald trump.
i believe he got shafted but i also recognize that very little will probably change regarding his being re-elected.
this man voted for the “green” candidate and said he personally agrees with most of trump’s views but he thinks he’s morally corrupt.

by Atlantis inyou are what she wanted to be!please, let us remove any blame to anyone right up front.
what happened to petra was not the fault of mark o'donnell, listener, corney, mike and kim, or anyone else.. constant rejection and shunning even at an early age, the depression was storing up inside of her.
she was shunned inside the hall and outside the hall.

How much do Elders actually get along with each other?
by Davros ini was reading in the shepherding book that elders should “ cultivate and maintain friendships with one another.”, and thought to myself “bulls$it!” i remember that most of the elders in my old congregation were nothing but nasty asses.
i know it may vary from congregation to congregation, but do elders generally get along with each other behind closed doors in elders meetings?
or, are they often in conflict with each other?

Back when this elders "arrangement" first started..early 70s? Was it ? In the cong my parents attended..(i was far away and married by then)..there was an unholy row.
I never knew the finer details..but i do recall the cong was split into 2 cliques..and they even sat on opposite sides of the center walkway in the meetings.
When it came to recommending those first elders..that was a real feud about it..to the degree that 6 or so got disfellowshipped..and there were no recommendations..apart from one...my dad..and he certainly didnt want it. So a new presiding overseer was "parachuted in" from a neighbouring cong..
This took place in what was then Hockley cong in Birmingham UK..later to be called Winson Green. ( If anyone reading this knows the area )

73 years old, a Witness for 48 years, an elder for 24 years, Baptized just before 1975. WOKE UP!
by pistolpete ini thought i would post an encouraging experience i found today.
i've been seeing a lot of 70-80 year old jws waking up, and their children are posting their experience on reddit.
these are old elders, pioneers, circuit overseers who have given their everything and finally at the end of their life, are walking away.. maybe the key to waking up is that a person has to have a deep sense of right and wrong.

Im sure my old dad was wide awake about it till he fied at 95. The only thing he was in it fir was the hope of the redurrection to be with mom again. She had died 15 years before him.
