hearing of sisters doing humble work in the congregation:.
how is it feel if you are a women with ambitions, well educated, maybe born very smart, you know what you want.. and then you see the elders, some simple, some very strict and some act like idiots.. and you know you're role is to be the one of housewife, pioneer and coffee vollenteer in the kh.. i did not see any ambisious jw girl in my youth maybe they did hide it.
but what a frustration there must be.. how do you see this aspect?.

How do you see this aspect?

jw's around the globe have been encouraged to write letters to putin and the russian government.
they are expected to give their personal details on the envelope.
i appreciate that this might be normal when writing to your own government if they are tolerant, but is this not a bit strange that the gb want to give putin the address of every jw in the world?
Every JW is using the jw library app.
So governments can trace and track them everywere.

following from the worldwide campaign to send letters to the russian government: topic covered here.. i started observing a scary trend, i got around 100 messages on multiple messaging apps, facebook and other social media posts encouraging all jws to send letter to the russian government protesting on the ban with the hope they will overturn it.. what struck me is that all are doing it and encouraging others to do it.
so, what if the gb via jw.org request something like street protests, civil disobedience, to the extreme of voting for or against a particular law or fighting (far-fetched).. what would the jw membership do, not the awakened one?
in addition, i feel this exercise exposes the awakened ones.

jehovah's witnesses mobilize global response to threat of ban in russia.

new york—threatened with an imminent ban on their worship in russia, jehovah’s witnesses are responding with a direct appeal to kremlin and supreme court officials for relief through a global letter-writing campaign.
WHY does the WT leadership not visit the Russia government? Why using a non effective paper protest?
WT has lobby people in DC. Let them contact the Russian embassy and negotiate. Do consessions.
Save your followers from this all and not your property.
Maybe both parties are strategic better of with this conflict.

This will only strengten the government. They can and will warn for foreign involvement and have an example: this action.
WTS is doing this to prevent losing property. They did earlier in history in Germany, France.
Maybe they have a good connection: Jared K.,

if there's one thing we can look back on and laugh and tell our kids it's the fact that knocking on strangers doors at inopportune times results in some funny or embarrassing experiences.
i'd be interested in hearing some of yours.
here's some of mine to get the ball rolling:.
When I was 16, a 20 year brunette opened the door fully in great looking lingery. I knew were I had to look!

by now it seems obvious that the gb and other leaders of the wtbs are corrupt.
the pedo scandal and various financial schemes are sustained by either lack of concern or greed at the top.
my question is how far down the food chain does this go?
Just like the Kingdom, the corruption is invisable. 😎
I'm convinced there is much about the WTS, that is invisable.

But most important, I expect they have very close ties with the US government.
I think they are used as an instrument for rolling out the US politic goals.
But, no proof.

an old jw friend of my wife stopped by here in fla. i knew there would be some subliminal bs.
i had to keep quiet through all the this old system can not go on much longer and are you going to the memorial?

@Sparky, I feel much the same anger.
1995 was for me starting the end game.

voters are going to the polls in the netherlands in the first of three crucial eurozone elections this year.
.
the voter turnout might set a new record.. what do you hope will be the result?.
Dutch are known for their concensus culture. No big shocks. That's why Wilders is not in power. We like sometimes the stone in the lake he trows, but we don't trust him in power.
More a Calvinist cost / profit calculation.
The Netherlands economy has overcome the crisis of 2008. Rutte has done the right thing on meta economics, the Dutch economy is the strongest and most healty of Europe.
