Good luck and smooth recovery GreatTeacher. Seems to be quite a popular surgery these days w/great success. I've friend who has had both hips replaced as well as knee surgeries past few mos. She's qualified now to be on the 'Bionic Woman' list.
Soon you'll be enjoying a pain-free life!

What If The Tower Fell?
by Big Dog inwhat if the truly unthinkable happened and the tower went down?
perhaps the irs swooped in and claimed fraud and padlocked the headquarters and kingdom hall doors?
or the gb took the money and ran to a nice non-extradition country to live out their years?

Beth Sarim: "They rely on their birthrate to keep it going." They learned well from the Mormans. I've 'heard' JWs are having so many babies these days but perhaps just a couple of wild statements made. How when we read halls are comprised of oldies.

I just don't know how hardcore JW will wrap their heads around such a mess of this if the gb disappear and WT crumbling -- they'll blame apostates/Satan and carry on.

Encouraging scriptures for the day
by Kosonen inhello my friends,.
here are some encouraging scriptures for the day:.
revelation 21:2 i also saw the holy city, new jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from god and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.. hebrews 11:10 for he (abraham) was awaiting the city having real foundations, whose designer and builder is god.. revelation 21:24 and the nations will walk by means of its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.. revelation 22:1 and he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of god and of the lamb 2 down the middle of its main street (of the holy city).

How Do Jehovah's Witnesses View Education?
by southyukon ini have a question about this article.. https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/jw-education-school/.
higher education can lead to moral and spiritual dangers.
a bible proverb says: "the shrewd one sees the danger and conceals himself.

Rule No. 1 -- any org, person, who questions education is a huge red flag re/totalitarianism/authoritarianism. The cult abhors those who see right through their show biz and college teaches critical thinking skills, debate. No thinking/debate allowed in brainwashing bunkers. How many times did I hear secular people (or negatives re/those in comfy religions) weren't interested in 'truth' and only want to debate. They don't like competition thus the rigid/horrific interpretation of scripture with respect to shunning and winning JWs' time/assets. Places them in the #1 slot to inherit all of adherents' estates/properties. What a concept.

Beth Sarim -- it's the gift that keeps on giving. Too bad it's taken this long for the JWs to 'peek' into the demons' screen.
I was looking for your posts reading in middle of night re/Xmas and ole Rutherfraud. Now w/blurry eyes trying every sunscreen on planet earth. I might yell out if I don't find here next few min.😳

Yes -- I think it's spelled Leoleila - obviously more than 3 syllables but that spelling doesn't look right. If I figure out I'll let ya know. I never made/had time to read. As far as I know she stopped posting moons ago, but I miss a lot of posts.

Isaiah 40:29-31 and Being Gay
by IWant2Know ini'm new here and i have perhaps an unusual question.
it's just something that i would like to know from ex's or formers rather than from other jehovah's witnesses.
but i would like to know what your experience and your struggle was for former jws who were gay when they were jws.

IW2K - yes -- all embryos are initially female -- within a short time the weaker embryos transfer to male. Strange when men are the strongest physically and have higher IQs (not saying females are not higher in some -- but generally) per the science. We'll call it old science.😂 We all should be questioning the 'science' these days. Don't remember the chemical/scientific details from psych classes decades ago.
