mass shooting at a kingdom hall in hamburg, germany this evening.
at least 6 or 7 killed, dozens injured.
single shooter on the run, police doesn't rule out more shooters.
horribel incident, no if, ands or buts. There is no excuse for such an abhorrent act. My condolences to all those affected by it.
Nonetheless, I see in the upcoming days or weeks JW practice of shunning being targeted by media outlets. JW will usually defend the matter by (wrongly) conflating shunning with disfellowshipping. If they get hard pressed, they will scream persecution and nothing changes...
Maybe a little glimpse of hope regarding the changed setup of the gb ???
this book was published around 1990, but was never studied (to my knowledge).
does anyone know the reason why?.
It was never studied at book study. The reason I know is, because when it came out, I really liked it and hoped for it to be studied, but we never did. And I was too lazy to study it myself anyway...
this has been announced on the jw's official website, in the "jw news" section.
this is not a joke.
anthony moron da turd is out as a gluttonous body member!
We dont know, however, we must be careful not to assume too much.
The video, with him buying whiskey at a remote store certainly looked suspicious, but is in itself prove of nothing.
Personally I dont like that guy and his talks, however, it does not give me the right to slap all kind of other unsubstantiated accusations on him.
Claims like that backfire fast, and we are once again disgruntled ex members who lie whenever we see it fit.

Two days ago, a reliable source, who has connections to personal acquiantances of AMIII told me the real reason: Health issues.
Now of course, it still could be a cover up, maybe for alcohol problems etc, but we may that never find out for sure.

That is very weird, on the German website, AMIII is still mentioned as GB member:
Zur Leitenden Körperschaft gehören Kenneth Cook, Gage Fleegle, Samuel Herd, Geoffrey Jackson, Stephen Lett, Gerrit Lösch, Anthony Morris, Mark Sanderson, David Splane und Jeffrey Winder. Die Leitende Körperschaft hat ihren Sitz in unserer Weltzentrale in Warwick (New York, USA).

i'm sure this has been discussed, but 1914 has to go away.
instead of, the overlapping generation teaching, they should have just ditched 1914. .
they should have done that a long time ago with 1975. it's the last of the teachings in the charles taze russell era.. i'm thinking they just will stop talking about it, and it will be out of the mind of the rank and file loyal witnesses .
Gave Scholar the benefit of the doubt, but after this, he is just another troll....
there is going to be a hole new system of blood cards this march .
the congregation won’t hold any information as they did before from march it will be all put on the pub.
i think it’s to do with vaccines and they are worried now they got everyone vaxed and they want to distance themselves from medical responsibilities and say own personal decisions.
Really? New card system? For what reason we will have the meeting part this week, about medical emergencies, if some things change so soon ?
this is one of the many charts on my jw lib analytics.. i have also attached the top 500 scriptures from 1950-2022. https://comingoutamycage.github.io/jw_lib_analytics/viewwordsperyear.html?publication=watchtower&normal=1.

Reading sometimes through older literatur, they used much more words, more sophisticated language, but once you digested it, you realize, it was the same nonsense, sometimes even worse than now...

handled very well indeed!.
excellent, the morons at head quarter have to get used to uncomfortable questions from well informed legal departments.
Typical example of double speak and hypocrisy.
Sad thing, most JW would not be bothered learning about it, because they buy into this "Satan against us" ideology, therefore in spirtual warfare any weapon is sanctified. Sad really...
how far do we get away from 1914 before they have a new light and admit it was all wrong?.
they cling to the old theory of the 77 week prophecy from the wrong date that jerusalem was destroyed .
with the overlapping generations nonsense still we are getting too far away from 1914. what will they say if we get to the 2030s and they still cling to 1914?.
"No problem. The date for the beginning of the Great War is problematic for certainly, the assassination took place long before other nations gradually became embroiled in the conflict so the timing of the month of October well coincides with the end of the Gentile Times, the birth of the messianic Kingdom with the ousting of Satan to the earth.

No
You are moving the goal posts. It is true, that the war declaration followed gradually after 28.7.14, however, accoring to JW theology, it was Satan inciting them to do so, after his expelling from heaven. If he was expelled October 1914, what was his job when the whole world was already in conflict? The typical trench warfare began already in September 1914...the chain reaction of Alliances, formed decades earlier, started to cascade already.
