hey all,.
i'm day six of isolation, confirmed to have coronavirus.
i have been seeing very sick cv positive patients over the last month in my a&e role (emergency physician) it was inevitable i would contract it.. just wanted to give some symptom and treatment advice, it's anecdotal but may help.. started as sore throat and headache, then croaky voice, then dry cough, then episodic transient fevers, all this over the first few days.
As an emergency doc. you are one of the heroes of this time... stay safe and recover, we need you.!
After reading this thread I went back and read some of your earlier posts and I am amazed. What you have achieved is awesome
My humble thanks to you and all your colleagues.
good day former jdubs, i'm a new member, particularly looking for it experts whome can verify if the jw apps track its members and record audio, particularly the khonf app.
if you download app on google play store and click the headphones, a pop up requiring user to click pop up to enable audio recording is displayed.
i'm minorly aware of the evolution of tech and tracking scandals.
I cannot really believe that the Watchtower Society busies itself with tracking apostates or it's members .
It is true that when one logs into KHConf or LiveKH you are asked the number looking at it and one of them asks your name"for the count" . I never wanted to give my name on line so I used put random letters in and it accepted me.
Zoom also asks your name because you are taking part in a vid conference call and the Watchtower Conductor takes answers if you volunteer one. I cannot see this going any futher than the local congregation.
That said, I am certainly not a tech expert. I am just giving an opinion based on my experience of this Society.
if you live in san antonio and would like to help me help randy waters please send me a pm.
.
I live thousands of miles away across the world but I would send Randy my very best wishes and appreciation for the eye opening that his site gave me many years ago
there will be no hope that she will ever come out of the wt abyss.
her mind is so diluted with the cult, i.e.
the best life ever.
Support for the O/p “going through the motions” ...
Hang on in there Bro.. this is a bad time that the world is going through. I heard a prediction today that by Christmas we will see a general boom in baby births , and marriage strife due to all being at home together.
As for closed-minded dubs, this is wonderful, just like persecution, except it isn’t. “Surely a sign of the end” they say....
Stick with it say little it does no good. They will see the system get through this and get back to normal ,Economically bruised but still standing .
Us husbands just have to get on with it........
if all you want to do it deliver a constant whine of "orange man bad" then find someplace else to do.
it.
frankly, i can't be bothered with the bullshit anymore.. honestly, your politics and the whole virtue signalling woke brigade has actually started causing real deaths and was ruining life for many before that.. if you can't control your disease, then i'll do it for you.. it's not open for debate..
As a Brit... Trump is not my President, neither is he the President of Canada so any discussion is academic for me , and for an ex Brit now living in Canada,such as Simon.
However does this mean that pro Trump posts are still allowed.?
If so, it would be very one sided.
not only do they want everyone dressed up for the zoom meetings( which i won't do) they decided to keep the zoom meeting at 1pm sunday!
so they don't upset their spiritual routine!
ugh!
We, dub wife and I, tuned in Sunday. Some others were dressed up, others were not. Nothing was said. We managed to set it so that our faces were not shown.. Thank goodness, still showed her name as an attender though. No doubt that zoom demands far more attention than just listening in on an app.
I heard that another Congo with a pm meeting have changed it to morning during this period.I can imagine B o Es keeping a routine .....masochists!
this morning my wife made the comment ... "we'll probably experience famine next.".
i don't know that she'd come up with this on her own.
has anyone else heard a jw talking about this?.
You are not wrong Smiddy, I remember that too.
I tell you, the dubs are loving this. Any indication that the system is in trouble and they are all over it . It seems like vindication of all their dire forecasts. So far they enjoy the novelty of meetings by zoom and the luxury of not having to get out to the Hall on Sundays. And no field service....Yippee!
how will the borg be able to count the partakers(144,000 anointed) since jws are to celebrate the memorial at home?
what about accurate counts for attendees?
what challenges do you see?
I guess they will take the numbers of the sign-ons to each cong zoom show plus any using KHCONF or LiveKH, they do ask for your name....
Any future ref to the numbers this year will no doubt have a note of the circumstances this year.
Edit.. ‘Roadtonowhere’ , yes I had the privilege of getting the emblems one year . We made good use of the rest of it. Matzoh’s , cheese and red wine go down very well for a Memorial night supper.
i just watched the netflix movie the animal people.
although i don't really agree in general with any eco or the like terrorists, watching the hidden cam video of the way these animals were treated was just sick.
anyone see this or the like movies?.
Animals have rights and should never be cruelly treated. But in the field of medicine, drugs have to be tested to save human lives. I can remember the thalidomide scandal when a rogue drug caused untold suffering.
If rats and mice have to be sacrificed in order to find a vaccine for Covid 19, I will not object
so my wife is so diluted and brainwashed.
during this time she is having so much anxiety, mainly because me and my son's want nothing to do with the religion.. so the discussion was, i told her will never go back because they go way beyond what the bible teaches all the time.
i brought up overlapping generation, 607 and then i told her...show me where in the bible that jesus returned invisbly in 1914 and started ruling?
It was all mathematics and numerology. Can I still recall it?
Daniel 4 says the interruption in God’s rule after Jerusalem destroyed, WT claims that was 607 because, would be 7 times . They say to take a day for a year. 7 x 360 days = 2520 days/years brings them to 1914....
I think that’s how it went but it is conjecture based on writings by 19th Century adventists
