the behavior from the org lately had me a bit confused, as it seemed to fall outside of their norm.
i'm not talking the hardcore armageddon wishers texting each other about peace and security, etc.
* but, the elders contacting people daily, and having extra meetings where they have all their additional rules.
I think the JW religion is ramping up their efforts to get to people because they are afraid that no
physical meetings equals loss of control over their members!
Bingo.
You hit the target more squarely than Errol Flynn splitting the arrow in "The Adventures of Robin Hood".
up till now i have generally received (on average) one or two nuisance calls a day –sometimes more, sometimes none.
although retired, i was out of the house about 20% of the time, but now that i’m home 100% of the time, i haven’t received a single nuisance call since the lockdown.
is this just me, or is covid19 having a sever impact of their incomes?
The mortality rate of Covid-19 on widows of Nigerian princes who need help transferring money out of Lagos is near 100% I hear.
it lasts for 45 minutes, but the first 11 minutes are more than enough to see that something is not quite right regarding the media's information about covid 19. the video has english subtitles.

Total death count is 3,300 against a population of 3.3 billion.
At the risk of repeating myself:
Maybe - maybe - relying on the official statistics of a government that lies with the ease and frequency that you take a breath might not give you a complete & accurate picture of the actual mortality rate.
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!
LOL.
We got an old guy who uses Zoom on his iphone for meetings
He holds the phone on his lap with the camera pointed up.
The main thing you see are these 2 giant nostrils.
If my stomach could handle it, I could zoom in and count his nose hairs.

Isn't he the "Queen of England is really a lizard" guy?
Maybe - maybe - he ain't the best source for Covid-19 info. Just sayin'.
people are not willing to accept the popularity of the watchtower and awake as these magazines belong to jw.
a listing site has declared the watchtower the most popular magazine in the world.. source: https://tingtopten.com/2020/01/top-10-most-popular-magazines-in-the-world/.
in comment section of this link people are abusing again jehovah's witnesses.
I'm pretty sure you've posted this drivel on this site under different names in the past.
As I noted on your other posts: If by "popular" you mean "most likely to be accumulated in stacks of several hundred in the back of the closet of a JW for years or even decades, never to see the light of day until said JW dies and his kids have to clear out the trash from his house", then yes, I agree with you.
as a us citizen, i am usually a bit skeptical of what comes out of the mouths of government officials.
often they may speak the truth but i’m not convinced of whatever they are saying as being 100% true.
do you believe your government implicitly?
I'm just thrilled we haven't lost 17,000 Americans to a virus
Just wait a week or 2, 3 at most.
...tell the sheeple that "jehovah's earthly organization" is financially facing critical times, hard to deal with, which could threaten its survival and that it urgently requires as much money as the minions can send.. like every other business in the world, the cult needs a constant source of cash to exist.
so with meetings, assemblies, and probably conventions being cancelled, the cash-cow is rapidly looking very precarious.. i reckon the financial brains in the wtbts will have devised a financial survival plan - based on the situation continuing/worsening.
:) the sheep have all been fleeced - time to skin them!.
I fully expect the urgent pleas to "give, give" to start up about the 2nd week in April, when the monthly contribution amounts normally flow into the WTS coffers, and the amounts are shockingly low (given that there were virtually no KH meetings nor assemblies for over half the month.
"Give, give"....now where have I heard that before?
Oh yeah, Proverbs 30:15:
The leeches have two daughters that cry, “Give! Give!”
There are three things that do not get satisfied,
Four that never say, “Enough!”
Hmm, the revised version of 3 things that do not get satisfied:
-- Splane's ego
-- Sanderson's appetite
-- Morris' thirst for single-malt
they want our zoom cameras on with them in control, and extra " encouragemrnt" to be broadcast each day.
You can turn off your video if you don't like it, or just simply not call into the zoom meeting.
this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.
Florida might be worse, but it’s not a country.
It is kind of its own little universe but it is part of the USA. Thanks in part to Florida, expect the USA numbers to dwarf everywhere else soon.
Do they have many cases so far?
Undoubtedly, but no one knows for sure since there is a grave shortage of tests available.
It's almost like it was easier to think it was all a "hoax" and do nothing until people actually started, you know, dying.
