JW defense fail
by neat blue dog init's a little long, but if you have a chance, read this court transcript of a sleazy jw lawyer's interaction with a judge and others.
in the course of defending wt, he uses theocratic warfare non-stop, but the court sees right through him and it's both pathetic and infuriating:.

Merger aftermath
by Rattigan350 ina couple of months ago, i reported on my congregation being disolved and merged with another.. on sept 1, cong b merged with cong a using the same hall, thereafter using cong a's meeting times.
also nearby cong c moved into the hall using cong b's meeting times and cong c's kh is being put up for sale.. i've since been to both sunday meetings and both midweek meetings.
at all, the parking lot is totally full, cars have to park around the corner and on the street.

Sounds like a good thing to me. Won't it make it easier for pimo's to hide out? Also they won't have to make comments as much! Easier to get lost in the crowd and nobody can pinpoint any one person as apostate as easily. But, what do I know?

Article: Telegraph-JW agrees not to show son religious cartoons because of risk of 'Emotional Damage'
by AndersonsInfo inhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/06/11/jehovahs-witness-agrees-not-show-son-religious-cartoons-risk/?wt.mc_id=tmg_share_fb.
a jehovah's witness has agreed not to show his son religious cartoons and has been banned from taking the six-year-old to some church events because it could cause him "emotional damage".
the man is embroiled in a family court dispute with his estranged wife and has been barred by a court from taking the little boy to jehovah's witness assemblies, annual conventions and memorials.. district judge malcolm dodds also said that the father had agreed not to show his son "jehovah's witness cartoons", a decision he described as "wise".

"He heard that the couple had separated about a year after the man began to study the Jehovah's Witness faith."- big surprise there, another broken family the wt is involved with and probably a big part of the separation.

An easy answer to all of this would be to quit knocking on strangers doors to indoctrinate them.
Or, be ready to provide YOUR name and address when knocking on someone's door. If a jw won't even identify themselves as a jw how likely would it be that they will provide the homeowner with their name and address?
Once again you have jw's unwilling to do what they ask of others. They often have the homeowners name, address and even notes about the family! 'husband a Catholic, wife Lutheran, heavy drinker, many kids, etc...etc... weirdos.

In my experience with them knocking on my doors they NEVER want to say they are jw's. I once asked a woman 3 times in a row, "are you a jehovah witness?" she would not identify herself as one. On my last and final very loud time she finally admitted it.
Years later in a jw discussion with my jw I asked him why, if they are so proud to be 'one of' jw's then why won't they even admit it at the doors? His response was that if they did people would just shut the door in their face. So, you know people don't want to talk to you and yet you still insist on annoying them? and that is their 'fine witness'.

When I saw the title of this thread all I could think of was this old thread, tried to find the image someone posted of a 'meat tree' but couldn't, made me laugh.
