please explain some of your past experiences of dealing with dealing with nosy brothers and sisters and how you dealt with them.
also have you ever dealt with a brother or sister who brings up your past just as a new topic for a conversation?
that happened to me once.
Gorby doesn't invite his JW family for a barbecue at his backyard because of the "Jehovah" word spoken out loudly and the very irational and strange JW story's being shared with the whole neighbourhood. From "Armageddon must be arround the corner" to "sister D. has quit her education because of doing the right thing for Jehovah" and "couple D are so materialistic buying a new house right before the end".
I hate this idiot chat a chat 😠😠😠
So no JW's in my backyard.

has anyone else noticed that in the wt study articles the main point they want you to remember is always somewhere around paragraph 11-14?
it's like a formula.
intro and overview paragraphs 1-4. basic wt stuff 5-8 (not controversial).
👍👍👍

Brother Johny Walker...
Nice remenbering: in the 80’s, a family with the name Martin visited our congregation.
When he gave an answer at the wt study, the conductor called him “br. Rémy Martin”.
everybody laughed.
He said “No, i’m Robert Martin”.
😂😂😂😂😂

okay, they cheapened the product by getting rid of hardcover books.
they reduced printing of mags.
they drastically reduced the number of pieces of printed paper that members would "place" in people's hands in various ways, the biggest one being that they put them on a cart and don't encourage people to take them.they cut d.o.
If I was JW.org (and I ain’t), I did not sell the Brooklyn property.
I would lease them for long time to an investor / property management company.
They did a short term sell off.
So wrong!
Without any evidence, I realise that some JW officials got a lot of money under the table for making the sell off possible to Kushner and other hot shots.

the study edition of august 2018 mentions the 3 reliable news sources for jehovah's witnesses:.
"breaking news" at jw.org.
"news" at jw.org.

"Breaking news" at jw.org
"News" at jw.org
and JW Broadcasting.
So, that's what we call a "well informed" world opinion.
Further they are warning for apostates, world media and news about jehovah's witnesses.
Compare it with KGB news about jw.
(They hide that KGB had some interesting news about the declaration of facts and some jw officials during ww2).
Jw.org is becoming more and more a sect. Were will this end?

well, the title says it all.
the dutch government will look into the possibility to revoke the charity status of jw after they refused to cooperate in the child abuse scandal.. the government urged the jw to start an independent investigation into the jw child abuse issues, and after some stalling the jw flatout refused.
unfortunately the government can't really force them.. the chance that the charity status is actually revoked is very small as there appears to be no legal basis to do so, but right now the government and house of representatives are very annoyed with jw.. and in the meantime the da will continue their investigation based on the victims officially reporting abuse to the police..
Jochie,
Our viewpoints are mostly the same.
We should not be Dutch If we did not disagree about details.
