  Dear Female ExJWs

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  judging by some forum comments and tweets, it seems like some female exjw's feel they are being ignored or excluded from things.

  i thought i'd share my views.

  what could possibly go wrong .... first, i think it's unfair to post and judge people based on a private chat shared without permission and posted without context.

  Preaching the Good News with Rising Gas Prices?

  by truthlover123 in

  i fear this could put an end to travelling a territory due to rising prices- where i am located in canada, we are now paying $2.08 per liter .

  now since there is 3.79 litres in one gallon that equates to $7.88 per gallon... .

  how many in a car group will kick in?

  Will the ministry ever resume?

  by optimisticskeptic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  going on 2+ years of no public ministry.

  can't imagine anyone is really enjoying letter writing still or that it's remotely effective.

  i'm a little shocked that we haven't resumed yet but i guess that's what happens when the org is run by a bunch of old people (ie high risk for covid) and a bunch of other sheltered germaphobes.

  Date of Adam's "Creation?

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower

  how do jws resolve these conflicting facts.. 1. no matter how you spin it, bible chronology calculates to circa 4000 bc for adam's creation.

  i followed the trail many years ago and that's what it adds up to.. 2. the most cursory investigation of any branch of relevant science puts man's habitation on the earth as hugely earlier than that.

  it's now so well-proved that anyone disputing it is guilty of wilful ignorance.

  How is the 'Cost of Living Crisis' affecting you?

  by nicolaou in

  1. social
  2. current

  here in the uk we've recently had the price cap on household energy bills raised by around £800 and there'll be another similar raise this autumn.. food prices are up, petrol is around £1.82 per litre - that's $10.37 per gallon for our american friends - and inflation is currently running at 9%.

  business are being hit as ordinary folk prioritise their spending.

  young folks are effectively priced out of the housing market and wage rises are not keeping pace.. mrs nic' and i are fortunate in that we're both in secure employment and with the kids moved out and mortgage paid off our outgoings are thankfully low.

  in the UK we've had the good times..very low interest rates---dirt cheap mortgages, energy costs 4 years a go a quarter of what they are going to be in a few months time. Far too much disposable income for utter trivia--restaurants..holidays..often several a year.

  Now comes the hard times. Far worse than most can imagine. Before you know it property prices are going to crash.

  Ive seen it all before.
