Two years ago I started a thread :
Watchtower's Art Department strange and hidden images
I boxed the strange artwork. Do those sleeves look normal in yellow boxes a&b? Look at box c & d. Don't they look like claws? What the hell is in yellow box labeled d? I'm not an artist, but don't tell me those sleeves are not strange? Subliminal?

Ronald Curzan ( helper to the Teaching Committee ) gives a talk on the real reasons Jehovah's Witnesses should attend meetings. It looks like the Zoom meetings have softened up many Witnesses. Many are PROBABLY turning off their cameras and zoning out. Field Service has come to a stall from the pandemic.
The real reasons the Watchtower Society want Jehovah's Witnesses members attend so many meetings, assemblies and conventions:
Recruit others
Control Bible information
Mold your behavior
Teach you to obey the ''ORGANIZATION''
Remind you that you're never doing enough
Witness your compliance at weekly meetings

Welcome back! Does it surprise you that since the Watchtower Society claim that ''they are no part of the world,'' ( refuse to vote, sign up for military service, salute the flag ) now want monies that come from a government?
Since you were a former elder, did you see any financial dishonesty from the Watchtower Society?

RULES & REGULATIONS
Trossamfunnsloven § 6, first comma
If a denomination of religion or of the philosophy of life, or persons who act on behalf of the denomination apply violence or coercion or make threats, violate the rights of children or violate bans of discrimination rooted in law, or in other ways seriously violate the rights or freedom of others, the denomination can be denied the government grants in whole or in part. Government grants can also be denied in whole or in part if the denomination calls for or supports the violations that are mentioned in this comma.
Decision
The County Governor understands the concept of negative social control as different forms of supervision, pressure, threats, and coercion with the purpose of causing persons to live according to the norms of the family or the group. The characterization of the control is that it is systematic, and it may violate the rights of individuals among other things in connection with the Convention of the Rights of the Child and the Norwegian law.[8]
The denomination describes this practice as a strong form of discipline. Children in the congregation must follow a number of rules, and the consequence of not following them is to be disfellowshipped from the congregation, which means isolation from family and friends who are told to stop keeping company with those who have been disfellowshipped.
It is shown in their comments dated 11.19.2021 in paragraph 19 that the family bonds are not terminated, as long as they live in the same household. However, we understand the situation to be that the child cannot have contact with other close relatives (including grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins) or friends. This is a reaction because the child has violated the own rules of the denomination. We believe that this can be experienced as pressure or coercion in order to cause the child to behave in a certain way. We, therefore, consider the consequence of the violation of the rules as a form of punishment.
On this background, we consider the disfellowshipping of a minor who is a baptized member to be counted as negative social control and a violation of the rights of children according to trossamfunnsloven § 6. According to trossamfunnnsforskriften § 11, first comma a), this can be a reason for denying the denomination the grants.

An analysis of the deceptive words of Morris and Pedersen is provided here:
https://avoidjw.org/world/jehovahs-witnesses-norway/That is a must read for everyone. Great analysis on what's really going on between the Watchtower Society and the Norwegian Government. Great deception on the Watchtower Society's part blaming the Norwegian Government for ''religious persecution.''
As you stated, it's all about the money.

I’m sorry for her and I am sure there are many Witnesses in the same predicament. She did ALL that work and knocked herself out for a handful of wishes.
Exactly! This was her investment. She was happy in what she was doing! Paradise earth was her return for her investment. We all wasted years and got nothing in return.
HiddlesWife
Now, throughout the course of time--because this all occurred since the later 1980s--she became an RP plus got involved in other VOLUNTARY Borg activities [Need-Greater F.S., Unassigned Territories, various Kingdom Hall Constructions, CAH Tour Guiding, cooking food for various Pioneer Schools, getting parts on her cong's service meetings, CAs and twice in RC dramas, to name A LOT!]. She was happy for a long while (her popularity was skyrocketing to a certain degree as well).
