i was pretty young in 1975, all i remember was a few complaining at the hall after and those at the door that razed us over it.
does anyone remember how they went about denying it and when this started.
i do remember a scripture in psalms about people being mighty and living longer so this was used.

these letters can be found in the original russian on jwforum.eu.. i will provide links but also copy and paste the english translation that was provided for each one.. this first letter was dated may 21, 2017 and concerns instructions on how to handle the donation$.
(*bolding is mine).
we should not make the same boxes for all groups.

i recently watched a series which was broadcast a year ago on uk channel 4 called dicte - an import from denmark.
the main character is a journalist, but it is revealed in the first 5 minutes that she was brought up as a jw.
when she was in her teens, she had a baby which was removed from her.
Very good tv detective. Realistic. My lovely wife likes it also.
Great moment when Dicte's JW mother came secretly to the birthday party of her grandchild... not wanting her JW man to know. So realistic.

i was wondering if you guys think if the general public cares about our stories or if they even care what the watchtower does to people??
?.
Not at all.

so he tries to prove that we are living in the last days without any evidence, but instead a series of unsubstantiated assertions ("never has there been a time with so much lack love and affection").
and uses things that are not even part of the so-called "sign" (abortions, pollution).
then proceeds to ridicule the "ridiculers," stereotype them, and declare they are only fit for destruction!.
Read Steven Pinker and you know enough.

i've seen very few carts in western australia.
the only one i have seen is near the front entrance of the perth royal hospital and on the several occasions that i have seen it, they are there all day, at least during the week.
i've stopped and had long conversations twice now and both times when i have approached them they've told me to take whatever publications interest me and then we've started talking.this last visit i brought up the royal commission.

i was approached by two jehovah’s witness elders who handed me a pamphlet advertising the jw .org website.
each man carried a bible and an apple ipad.
they told me that they enjoyed visiting with people about the bible, and asked if i was a bible reader.
Oopsy
wtf?
russian jw mr novik is shown in full view on jw org wearing the "parental glory" badge with its prominent cross pattee on his lapel - and not one word of caution is sounded.
similarly, jw forums are abuzz singing the praises of mr and mrs novik and their brood after they received the parental glory honor from no less than jw-oppressor, mr putin.. from the stinking gb heaven all the way down to the dusty rank and file, the hypocrisy is sky-high.
I had a live experience this weekend how irretional jw family members react on the Russia events.
It is Jehovah this and Jehovah that..
It reminds me of the bible text about people that act like the wind.
Because of lack of education jw's have no fundament of thinking.
They don't do research, read the informal information and have their truths directly made up, because it's on jw.org
My brother in law concluded, "now, we will win the appeal".
It does not surprise me seeing all these jw family with health problems. They live in a buble with continue changing inner and external opinions, related to a continue stream of informal and strongly biased information.
With their FB pro jw groups and Whatsapp communication they are right on the way to madness.
It is so sad to see. All their time and health is flying away due to irrational nonsense.

there were many addressed to me.
for example, i once had a sister tell me i was gambling because i liked playing skill crane (the machine where you have to try to pick up prizes like stuffed animals) at the arcade.
i then fired back a her: "you saw the r-rated movie 'backdraft.
Great moment was when something I said made an Elder speechless.
No counsel, but total silence was his reaction, and a facial expression of a totaly shocked person.
What did I say?
"Br X, some one told me that they were surprised that I am a JW. They said we didn't expect you are a witness. You look such a normal person".
🤣🤣🤣

Instead of giving condelance when my grandmother died, the elder asked me for my field service report.
