Lot of good thoughts posted. My first thought is that he is only 22 and if raised in the religion has little social experience...communicating via internet is far simpler than face to face for him.....his emotional maturity is likely more like a 14 year old. You express second thoughts...gut feelings...don't ignore them. If you do meet up plan activities...zoo...museum...whatever...keep occupied doing positive things and be objective. This guy has a long way to go I bet...in terms of a positive relationship....

25Involved(ish) with a JW Man.
by BNG-713 ini know there are several posts about witnesses and non-witnesses in regards to relationships.
i couldn’t find anything specifically that spoke to me, so i would love some third-party advice and thoughts.. i have never been someone to pursue a stranger from the internet.
earlier this year, i became friends with someone on a video game.

Would You Stop Buying A Product Because of Political Differences?
by minimus inwould you stop buying nike products because you didn’t like their politics?
conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?
would you stop watching an entertainer because you disagree with their political perspectives?

Yes and no....I abhor Martha Stewart for her greed, arrogance and self centered persona and will not buy anything associated with her brand. I choose not to further enrich the !itch.
Home depot...while I disagree with their stance...they present the best and simplest options for many necessities. But if an equal option exists I'd go with that. Example. Papagino...not papa John.

Saw a post on reddit...
by Biahi inmany exjw’s don’t remember their birthdays or birthdates, some actually guess and are off by a year or two.
i’m always proud to say my age, and i’m a woman, here’s why.
i thought i would be dead in 1975. i turned 16 in 1975, and i thought god would kill me because he knew i hated being a jw, even though i hated it, i thought it was ‘da troof’.

Also...wasn't there an awake article back in the 60's or 70's that "explained" the population growth from the landing to Babylon? I seem to recall something along those lines...I do recall the resurrection population thing that left everyone in the new world with their own little acre or so....

Comments on the structure purportedly buried on the south side of mt Ararat???
Don't misunderstand me...the science defies a worldwide flood...a localized one though on land already mainly flat...no mountains with elevation such as we know now? And say the "water canopy" was an erroneous view....thoughts?
