What I hear is they have virtual fieldservice meetings and simulate even the car ride to the field and then logging out because there is no real fieldservice.
How crazy they can be.

GB teaching - Gays and Lesbians will be resurrected as Gays and Lesbians
by Listener inthe final talk of the saturday afternoon online convention is given by lett, sporting a creepy looking combover, which for some reason, looks creepier than normal.
he talks about how those resurrected will need to come into line with a new moral code otherwise they will be destroyed.
he uses an example of gay people having to turn away from their inclinations even though they may feel that they are perfectly acceptable.. this demonstrates that the gb feel that being gay is a taught behaviour rather than an imperfect unnatural desire, otherwise they would be growing out of that desire as they develop towards perfection, as they teach.

Watchtower Library
by Paul Bonanno inin the early 1980s together with my brothers we decided to started collecting watchtower literature and have them neatly in a library at home.
with the help of our father he gave us all the books bought during the years that he had stored in a big wooden box.. after purchasing all the literature that we had missing from the kingdom hall we decided to write letters to the world headquarters of jehovah’s witnesses in brooklyn new york as well to the british and australian branch office.. unfortunately none of our requests bear fruit as they informed us: “it is doubtful whether they are available anywhere in the world….” (ca february 23, 1983); “unable to supply the old publications you request.” (sa: sg september 20, 1983) “we will keep your letter on our files….”(sa: sg january 22, 1983).. during the years we managed to obtain many of these early books going back to 1879 when this religious organization was started.. through barbara anderson we learned that in 30 columbia heights building new york they had a warehouse storage where they kept many old literature which don kommers the assistant of vern wisegarver was responsible for.
through these publications we learned what exactly was written by charles russell and joseph rutherford regarding predictions that never came to be.

I have 5 old wt books stored.
One of them is a 1917 birth day agenda book from the society.
I took it away from the kingdom hall and never returned it, because of the trow away actions.
They are just communists / socialists defining their own history again and again.

@TD can you imagine in a country like The Netherlands / Holland were most people don't believe anything, a neighbour's backyard is making a lot of noise about these subjects. Good for the neighbourhood gossip.

@Phizzy, you are right! It's a one way communication. They send. Others have to listen.
This was the first time that some family, visiting, didn't act like visitors. They act like my nice, park style backyard was a battleground for free speech.
So, new guest list the next summer 😆
I type this smiley, but i am still flabbergasted about it. It was so extreme and so loud, al these sect speech.

It's sad to see family, people you like and love, switched off their rational thinking.
It's like they are in a stream, a wild river, trying to keep their head above the water.
Instead of taking some rest in this difficult times, they are in full sect mode, and they don't know it.
Sect!!!
