  Vaccines - "Jehovah's" chariot does it again....

  by neat blue dog in

  jehovah's chariot, famous for being late to the game, copying other religion's chariots, or outright turning in the wrong direction does it again with vaccines.

  immediately after the gb announced that masks are still required and that all hlc elders are required to be fully vaccinated, the cdc comes out with new covid guidelines:.

  which "focuses on individual decisions" and "brings the recommendations for unvaccinated people in line with people who are fully vaccinated – an acknowledgment of the high levels of population immunity in the u.s., due to vaccination, past covid-19 infections or both.

  Mikejw,

  You've been here only 10 days and all you have done is promote your conspiracy agenda. You must have been a follower of Alex Jones and all the other conspiracy "nuts".

  I agree with stan livedeath. Knock it off. You are getting very boring.

  Just keep going to your Kingdom Hall, because you don't belong here. You are only playing games.

  3 years in the making

  thursday while i was at work, a new elder stopped by the house (almost 3 years after fading) to encourage us to go back to meetings.

  said everyone misses us.

  if you did, why not stop by and say hi every now and then?

  If you really wanted to fade, you should totally ignore any thought of meeting with them. Yes, them! Because that elder will not come alone. This is nothing more than an investigation to determine if they should go beyond a "friendly?" chit chat. You cannot be altruistic with them.

  Prepare for the worst.

  Renee86. Is 86 the year you were born? If it is, then that makes you 36 years old. If this is right, then I must say that you don't have much "grasp" of the world around you. Please don't think me rude, but at age 36, most people have a pretty good knowledge of the world around them and making relationships. Or is it that you are completely baffled about Jehovah's Witnesses? From this and previous posts, you seem to be trying to understand what JW's are about. Just run away from the situation you are getting into as fast as you can. If you persist, you will have a life of heartache. Find a guy who isn't bound by religious superstition and high control.

  God forbid that a JW own a pickup truck. Fellow JW's will be like flies on shite wanting you to haul stuff for them.

  Dating with a guy

  hi,.

  if you date a jw guy do you say to each other you are actually dating or courting?.

  If you are not a JW and he is, it could be the biggest mistake of your life. JW's are only supposed to "see" other JW's. If he still says he is a JW and has JW family, then he will still want to please them and most likely would not tell them he is seeing a non-JW. Dating like this is a complete no-no for them. If you really like this guy and it actually leads to marriage, there's a chance he will try to get you to become a JW. If you don't convert and he continues as a JW, there will be many problems in your marriage. You can read countless stories of JW/Non-JW couples and the lousy marriages they are stuck in on this forum.

  My advice is to run for your life while you can.

  i have no idea if this is the right place to post this.

  if you're just leaving the witnesses or questioning and toying with the idea of leaving..... life goes by fast.

  and either you rip the band aid off and deal with it or let it fester and eat you alive.

  i've been out for over 20 years and really can't keep up with the doctrinal and physical changes.

  there have been so many construction projects, property sell-offs, and whatnot.

  can someone clarify what exactly is in each city/town.

  Which is which? I've been out for over 20 years and really can't keep up with the doctrinal and physical changes. There have been so many construction projects, property sell-offs, and whatnot. Can someone clarify what exactly is in each city/town.

  Patterson: Education Facility? Education for what?

  Wallkill: Printing? What little they do these days.

  Warrick: World Headquarters?

  Tuxedo: World Headquarters? Media Production Center? Luxury homes for the upper echelon?

  Ramapo: Media Production Center?

  It's a wonder there is any money left after what is being spent for legal costs and lawsuits.

  All that money spent and nothing to help hungry and homeless people.

  They/We/I condemned other religions for their faults and having false beliefs, but their fruits are not coming forth. I see other religions and churches operating food banks, homeless shelters, and counseling centers.

  How much more can they possibly spend. After all, the end is right around the corner. Forget saving for retirement or getting an education that will provide a good living. (sarcasm intended)

  I watched it the past two days and was just stunned that something like that is allowed to exist. There were so many parallels to JW's. The whole thing is totally weird.

  It's been a long 9 years Lloyd Evans / John Cedars

  I am wondering if anyone has ever contacted Leah Remini or Mike Render as to what a piece of crap Lloyd Evans really is. A couple of years ago when they had him on their show, I have a feeling that Lloyd wasn't fully vetted by their staff. It most likely was a case of seeing his website in the forefront and thinking he was a strong advocate against the JW religion.

  Your thoughts?
