some towns in massachusetts are fining people 1000 dollars for not wearing a mask 😷 outdoors.
starting wednesday, the governor mandates everyone from 2 years of age up, must wear a mask or get a 300 dollar fine!.
of course some governors are recommending that you rat out anyone that doesn’t follow their orders.. i don’t like it!👎🏿.
cofty - sorry, Min - not hijacking your thread - COFTY - if you named one book to prove evolution/science over religious crazy what would it be - I have your book list and probably most of the books - I need to send to someone on FaceBook - a doctor. I almost mentioned Coyne's book but thought you might have a better idea.
Thx. If I don't hear back I'll try to PM you.
One or 2 books.
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.
I just heard the virus may be decreasing/lessening in strength for infection - reporting from Arizona scientist. Heard this twice today but who knows It depends which 'expert' you listen to or channel. I hope it doesn't nix out a vaccine but can't rely on one.
its amazing how the cult has changed over the years.
they are now suing everyone who has books or internet presences critical of the cult.
this was never done that i can remember before.
Bring it on cult Watchtower! They must be hurting for shekels - 2 billion in one land sale and they're still hungry. I want my money back from the cult - they lie and deceive people to get them to sign on. They aren't popular thus all the lies.
how many kingdom halls are there worldwide?
even better how many in the years 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.. i'm asking this to get a picture of the total real estate owning of the jw and how this become to the money-cow in these days..
Kim&Mike YouTubes might have good idea or perhaps you can email them.
i’ve been thinking about it for a few weeks and i’m sort of surprised that no one else has introduced this topic!.
what better time than now for a fader to fade?
no meetings, no field service, no elder visits, no assemblies, no convention, and no other bullshit busy work going on.
Perfect idea, DoC - they can say they're paranoid/schizophrenic (apropos for some JWs) and just can't make it.

Great explanation -- I get it!
i'm not totally new here, as i'm reading since some time...then i tried to sign up but had some technical issue with the email,eventually recovered..... i'm from north italy, for your info from the region where the covid is worse.
i'm male, generation millennial(...unfortunately not the overlapped generation :))) ) ..sorry to don't go in so much details, but i'm pimo ;).
hope i can contribute to this community and help as much i got from you guys.... have nice weekend!.
Welcome aboard, Italiancalipso - you'll love this site. Look forward to hearing about JW life in northern Italy and COVID. I've an adult child who attended meetings in northern Italy and Rome couple decades ago - mid 2,000s (maybe). Love northern Italy - been on several flights into Milan.
i am no longer a study.
during the onset of the pandemic the person who used to be my bible study teacher began to reach out to me.
initially, i just thought that she wanted to know that i was well.
They must really be desperate during COVID as they're digging up names/contacts. Someone on board mentioned a governing goon advising them to contact ex-JWs (and anyone else they can hound) and beg them to return to Jehovah but this is probably normal. I knew a couple of female JWs married to doctors who thought higher education was the devil but certainly enjoyed their lifestyle/status never having to be concerned about employment. Such hypocrites. Of course, they were JWs before marriage and only one out of 5 married to professionals finished high school. Only one of the 5 could afford Gucci/Louboutins on a limited basis -- designer wardrobe - few are at the top of the food chain. The others may have owned one luxury item. Most professionals wives have been employed for decades for extras.
I would tell the JW that you appreciate the Mormans' value and respect for higher education (like the Jewish faith - not that higher education is necessary for everyone) and block her number.

Add some sunscreen, throw on a JW apostate hat and race to the desert! What happens here stays here and gawd knows how long a lock down.
