Great picture Ken! Good luck on your campaign. If I lived in AL, I'd vote for you.I love the no BS sort of approach you are taking. I volunteer for our local youth sports programs and it just feels great to contribute even in a small way to the community. I never got that feeling knocking on doors.

My letter of disassociation, what do you think?
by James Jack indear brothers, july 27, 2020. in 1919, the president of the watchtower society made a bold prediction, “millions now living will never die”.
that quotation was constantly repeated by the organization till the year 2000 when they realized that everyone in attendance at that assembly, who listened to j.r. rutherford repeat those words, are dead.. that teaching has guided my life.
statements were repeatedly made at assemblies, conventions and in print that there was no career in “this system of things” so you don’t need a job with benefits or retirement, your fulltime job is to “preach the good news”!

What I did was gradually decreased my commenting over a few months to zero. Same for service although I turned in a nominal amount of time. In short order, people quit inviting us to "gatherings" and the like. When I go, people still talk to me but it's very superficial and these are folks I've known for 20+ years. I never say anything negative and they don't really press for answers. It's kinda weird to be honest but we've been able to strike a balance that allows us access to family without blowing the whole thing up. Probably got lucky based on many stories I hear.

After the Covid-19 crisis: what will happen?
by Gorbatchov inwhat will happen after the covid-19 crisis?.
- economy with all the stand still corporations, people without work and mass injections of support money?.
- politics with the end of globalisation, closed borders and new geopolitic friends (italy / china russia), lack of support and working together in eu and local politics, did the current politician the right thing?.

Things will recover. We've been through worse and came out on the other side just fine. I do suspect that the next time on of these potential pandemics are identified, the world will react much quicker now that we have a road map. This year will be a challenge for many but I've witnessed some really encouraging behavior with people looking out for one another.
This too say pass
