No f'n way that is organic growth immediately following that Mushroom vid.
there is news about the wtg's cooperation with the un as an ngo.. according to the un, every ngo is obliged by statute to actively work towards the goals of the un.. the historical case on the same topic, from 1992-2001, should be known.. at that time, the cooperation was exposed by a report in the british daily newspaper “the guardian” on october 8, 2001.. the wtg canceled its membership a day later under the pressure of outrage from some congregations.. many witnesses couldn't believe it and wrote to the un asking for information as to whether it was true.. the un response letter is still available on the un homepage.. here is the link to the un statement.

now it is time again!.
We usually hear of WTS. What is WTG?
prompted by a mention in a different thread.. cracks in the sidewalk, a pinch of salt over the shoulder, black cats🐈⬛; do jws have such superstitious beliefs.
are they allowed to?
would they be counselled if the elders became aware?.
Satan and his demons are always watching us and are experts at catching our subtle individual behaviours to get clues on what will tempt us.
They then use this insight to entice us to sin against Jehovah and the org.
Demons attaching themselves to household items was terrifying.
My dad often gave the public talk "Deliver Us From the Wicked One". I traveled with him whenever he gave that one. All sorts of anecdotal stories of demon possession and the need to be always alert to ways in which Satan and his minions can harm us and draw us away from Jehovah.

Great collage.
I recognize only about 10% of the faces.
Wonder if someone(s) could provide names and websites for the people represented in this pic.
uh oh, looks like the mega thread gave up the ghost, so while i investigate / fix it just continue the discussion here .... it's been a long 9 years lloyd evans / john cedars.
Noses? (Rhymes with 'Moses' -?)
That's funny, Yooters.
issues raised in this thread:.

i'm trying to list all the things jw children are not allowed to do, or are discouraged from doing.
A few years ago I attended an 'Inter-Faithless' Beach gathering.
All sorts of people who had left high-control groups were invited.
I was chatting with a group of ex-Mormons and ex-Muslims. One of them said "We always felt so sorry for the JW kids. They had it so bad. The only thing worse than growing up as a Mormon was growing up as a JW!"
It's a very lonely childhood. Not allowed to have friends at school. Friends at the hall are dependent on how spiritual (outwardly devoted) they - or you - are.
Must never dress with current style. Always ultra conservative and extremely modest.
i understand he intimated that the faithful slave was not the only spokesman for jehovah god.
he also intimated that corporal punishment was not advocated by the wts.
we're these lies or deception or did they represent the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?.
There was a qualifier in his answer.
Something like 'it would be presumptuous to say we are the only spokespersons...'
When he said it, I remember thinking he misrepresented the JW view.
Then my 2nd thought was "Huh. He didn't lie. It *is* presumptuous."
For anyone who cares to review his testimony:

Newly Enlightened wrote: "...As soon as the transfer became official from Cynthia Franz to Deborah Dkystra, Deb's husband died and delayed it..."
AND THEN...
When Deborah did finally get to the point when should wanted to publish, the copyright itself had issues because of the taint that Lloyd put on it.
That created extra costs and further delays.
