I know. I saw a few DVIMIs making comments about very recent APOMOs in a very negative way. Even family members who are IPIMI are not exactly popular. I've often wondered if they know that PIMOs who give off subtle signals and they are so cued in to cult speak that it gives them away. Some people have a term for that, but I think NRSPIMIs is a step too far.

Is WT Influencing Dubs To Check On Other Dubs' Activities Via ZOOM And Otherwise?
by HiddlesWife inthe reason for my question is because one pimo has noticed that there are some pimis--particularly spimis--who have remarked that they "are not going to contact nor associate with the friends who are delinquent on zoom and/or at in-person kh meetings, conventions, and assemblies".
i've noticed this as well: a few ppimis and pimqs who were very close to me and my exdub family members are hearing from them less and less lately than before last year's rc and this year's rc.
so, is the above a thing nowadays?

Roe vs Wade Overturned by US Supreme Court!
by Simon ini know there was a leak a few weeks back, but this really does seem to have come out of the blue.. the anomaly was the original decision.
it clearly had no basis in law or the constitution, and was a flimsy, ridiculous ruling.
plus the whole thing was based on a fraudulent case in the first place.. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61928898.

think Harris was making the point that, if abortion is such an evil in God's eyes, He is acting in direct opposition to that belief by making it happen naturally. If you're an atheist, the argument is meaningless, since the high rate of natural miscarriages is just an outcome of the evolutionary process.
This is a well crafted argument. Nothing I've read rebuts it very well.
That doesn't involve human intervention though.
I'm thinking the problem most people on the board seem to have with the American model is the refusal to accept that there is a point that happens, prior to birth, when the fetus becomes a 'person'.
Because 'Personhood' includes in its definition the capacity to suffer. Science has proven beyond 20 wks a baby can.

AM If they stick to this trend there will soon be more languages that their words are printed in than words.

TonusOH I don't think it's effective to try to buy Patreon supporters. Unlike Twitter or YouTube, where you are buying a few clicks (which can be automated, if needed), a Patron is sending you money.
Absolutely. There's no way that's economically possible to the point where it's worth your while.
The only thing I have wondered is if he asked some of his higher tier patrons to spread their patronage out over several accounts? So four $5 accounts instead of one $20 account, for example.

I really hope he is ok! 70 isn't massively old, so hoping he's ok? Do you think maybe Rick would know how he is??🤞
I think it's an incredible shame free minds is no longer available and that no one was able to archive it.

I think this is more to do with him not being so popular with exjws, with still being supported by the Athiest community who probably aren't aware of his history and of course those who were once in other cults.
I haven't seen what this is about, but I do know there is a comradery between exMos and exjws, with much in common.

I made a Website to examine the scriptures/words usage in every JW publication since 1950/1970
by ComingOutaMyCage inhi everyone!i'm new here, but have been active on the reddit r\exjw community.
i have just published a website where i analysed the last 50-70 years worth of watchtowers, awake, books, brochures, and kingdom ministries/work books.. i have collected all the data and published it at the link below.
you can also see below an example of genesis.

Absolutely fascinating!! Really great work!
I noticed those top 3 words are different combinations depending on publication eg on Kingdom ministry top words are Bible then God then Jehovah.
I wonder where in the world using "What 3 words" you would find yourself with the combo jeeehovah, God and Bible?☺️

2 Peter and Jude and 1 Enoch
by Parallax ini'm new to the forum and i have a question about what was said in a 16-year-old thread at this forum.
a poster by the name of leolaia said.... the author of 2 peter did not recognize that jude 6 was an allustion to 1 enoch (just as he did not realize that jude 9 was an allusion to the assumption of moses and thus rephrased it incoherently in 2 peter 2:11), or he may have objected to the enochic reference (just as jude 14-15 was omitted in 2 peter 2).
in either case, the author overlooked the enochic allusion and instead recognized the passage as an allusion of hesiod and thus embellished the passage from jude with an allusion to hesiod's tartarus.. .
