  by Balaamsass2 in

  i was following a few threads in reddit from current pimo jws complaining about local announcements regarding halls being short on their per publisher "rent payments".

  third gen and i have been out pomo for a while...so how much is this charge now?

  could this be part of the recent push to get people to "come back" or get re-instated...if it even is online and 15 minutes of service per month?

  "i slay and pray" :).

  serena williams knows how to own a red carpet.

  the 23-time grand slam champion turned heads at the vanity fair oscars afterparty, dazzling in a midnight-black, off-shoulder gown.

  WingCommander - lol! I agree but do like the evening gowns. Good thing her father was a non-witness or they never would have had the sports opportunity/financial success.

  Sounds like she's a committed JW now. A time and place for everything even for the naughty, non-baptized, JWs. Hope she continues rocking the Balenciaga/Gucci evening gowns. Not half bad. Before baptism she thanked Jehovah for her wins -- perhaps she was generous w/the donations.

  i have been away from the jw cult for many years.

  i don't have any family i talk to that are in it.

  so i don't know if the jws as a whole are seeing the cult fall apart or if they or the majority of them are head in the sand la la la the end is neigh.

  Their fantasies keep them holdin' on. I question the mental state of many and the covid injections hasn't helped. Alcohol/psychotropic drug abuse long before the detrimental/noxious side effects of the injections.

  Depression and big pharma drugs

  i'm going to drop a bomb shell here for all you who think you know something about depression.

  most depression cases are being cause by the food and drug administration.

  they are putting things in certain foods that they know will affect certain people especially those who have gluten problems.

  so from the get go in study article 18 and the theme :"imitate the faithful angels" we read the following questionable statement in paragraph 1: "when jehovah drew you to the truth, he invited you into a diverse and loving family of worshippers, which includes millions of faithful angels.

  Anonymous666 - I think most of our food is unhealthy/toxic plus the ongoing chemtrail spraying is horrific -- quite decorative skies. Adele Davis documented decades ago the mental institutions were full of mentally-ill patients addicted to flour. Many nutritionists acknowledge white flour is poison and one researcher on Substack refers to it as 'crack' and a very dangerous substance plus makes people fat. Nothing new -- we've been reading about fattening, unhealthy, carbs, for years. Flour is only one poison. Apparently, rats in flour factories won't touch white flour. Oh my - the human, flour, addiction.

  The FDA is not the only factor for mental illness/depression but many are clueless the toxicity of our food supply. Just read how poisonous my 'organic' almonds, walnuts, cashews, from Whole Foods/Sprouts are -- I give up! US is one unhealthy nation. Can't be as toxic as the antibiotics from the oral surgeon -- never felt so weird in my life!

  7 note how javier, a brother in south america, saw the need to walk by faith.

  he says: “i had applied for a prestigious job that would double my salary and provide considerable personal satisfaction.” however, javier had the deep desire to pioneer.

  Longy - I was not member in 1975 - not ever considered a "member" per rules/regs. but I recall all the 1975 hype from a friend who nixed our Baptist church and a family member who was being brainwashed around that time - surreal. Decades later I started reading the mags and lost it - me mind! Unreal -- I have friends/family that have told me for years I'm a hard sell and yet became a lamb off to the slaughter. Not making excuses for my mental slippage (oh my) but on the old H20/Hourglass site ? were psychological articles attributing the persuasion/mind control of the publishing cos. journals - WT/Awake. They indicated it's main tool. Most likely posted here on this site. Couple gals on my delivery of the mags became addicted within few mos. They eagerly waited for them and asked for referral when I stopped - seriously!

  I never lock stepped w/the club nor did I fit in w/the cliques although told one must stay in that arena - quite a club! Never happenin' - had my own social life, way to busy.

  We're the vamoosed club!

  Hey, Longy & Magnum -- you both have/had more faith than I that the charlatan leaders believed their looming end drama. What a great recruiting/labor scheme/motivation. I remembered the 1975 hype couple decades before I started reading the effective, propaganda, mags. Quite a shtick.

  Hope your wife finds a great job, Magnum. Hearing more employers prefer older, mature, responsible, reliable, employees, although challenging times on the horizon w/overseas cheap labor and AI takeover.

  Enjoy that retirement, Longy -- I'm sure your JW acquaintances/friends from yesteryear would love to have one.

  Thank goodness we all skedattled from the mess.
