  i see posts that evans does not seem to like being removed.

  i guess he is not a lot different than the control cult he left.

  his rebuttal to the zoom assembly he said that dawkins made some silly comments about gender.

  Thanks for the link jeffro. I don't think it's currently a big disaster for women's sports (although for some women who compete, such as new Zealand weight lifters right now, may say it's a disaster for them personally)

  But it does have the potential to be so. The last thing we want is girls giving up their ambitions because they see mediocre men suddenly switching up and becoming female world champions :/

  As an aside, it's funny how its never the the male world number 1,2 or even 3 suddenly becoming female. I sometimes wonder whether it's about money, do they want to be top to get more sponsorship money??

  (Jeffro just to say I haven't disliked your comment btw 😜 unless by mistake lol. I rarely do even when I'm having a real ding ding with someone!)

  I wouldn't say they are most boring people, religious sect

  I don't say witnesses are boring. But the religion itself is incredibly, unspeakably boring! The talks, the meetings.... oh lawdy! It's just repeat, repeat, repeat! Even the language, even the very words they use are the same. Even the timbre and intonation of their voices are the same!!

  Same subjects, same scriptures....need I go on😳😳😳🥱🥱🥱😴😴😴

  All cults are famous for being boring. And soooo repetitive! Watchtower is typical in that regard.

  Frankly it's one reason, not often talked about, that they fail to attract youngsters to the religion.

  Are you just venting here because you purportedly can’t comment on Evans’ channel? You’re literally complaining over a couple of seconds out of a 4 hour video.

  Lloyds got a producer now so it's probably him removing comments.

  He's famous for removing comments and like a lot of EXJWs he's over sensitive to criticism. It's a bit petty considering how big his channel is now

  One thing I don't understand is the (mainly women,) who are pushing back against the nonsense that men who have experienced a male puberty should compete in women's sports, is that no one mentions the simple test for XX or XY chromosomes in order to determine who may compete.

  Does anyone know why that is?

  They're currently assessing levels of testosterone so as to see whether someone born male may compete. I believe it's irrelevant. Sadly I also think intersex girls, if they have Y chromosomes, should not compete. It seems a simple enough test, so why don't people talk about it? I'm talking about the women who are currently trying to prevent it, not the supporters here. They never seem to use the XY issue. Why is that? Is there a medical reason for that? Is it possible for someone whose had a female puberty to be XY???

  I was in the most enormous Twitter fight over those idiots at BBC radio 4 After Dark discussing women's sports and not one single woman took part in the discussion (as an expert panelist)!!

  Lloyds very "right on" but people like that who are trying to be fair and scared of being prejudiced don't realise they're throwing women's sports on the trash heap. I think a lot of people are very naive about "autogynephilia" which I've personally come across quite a bit.

  Why No Disfellowshipping Before 1952?

  why was there no official arrangement before 1952 to disfellowship people?

  was there a different procedure with a different name?

  was no one committing disfellowshipping offenses?

  Doesn't he realise by highlighting scriptures about killing false prophets he's condemning himself out of his own mouth....

  we had a fancy dress up party in our congregation.

  elders special pioneers and many others came, though some came as cowboys and pirates with guns and swords which was not in line with the watchtowers "beat your swords into plough sheers.

  " some sisters were belly dancers....yes they exposed their stomachs.....shock horror!

  Do You Love The Country You Are In or From?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most people over the generations have taken pride in their heritage, nationality and country they are from.

  it’s not uncommon to hear of “proud” italians and proud irish people , as an example.

  are you proud of your country and your nationality or do you feel shame or indifference?.

  Thank you Atlantis & Petra.

  The guys in Oz are doing a phenomenal job.

  Lara, Steven & Bill we really do appreciate what you are doing....holding Watchtower to account for their total disregard of the children of Jehovah's witnesses, baptised or not.

  We know they care nothing for their adult Jehovah's witness workers. But as a community we all have to take a stand, sending a message to watchtower loud & clear - you will NOT disregard the welfare of the kid's trapped in your clutches!!!
