Meanwhile, over on You tube....
JW thoughts finds his....well, thoughts, out in the wilderness...
Lloyd :@jwthoughts "Are you seriously suggesting I removed a comment on someone else's channel?!!"
Lloyd. Some of us may be a bit long in the tooth but we've mostly heard of "delete".
SBF It must be very lonely, and a chill wind over there in the bunker.
I agree. He only seems to be able to go all Captain Mainwaring on everyone.
And if that doesn't work he doesn't have a plan B. I don't like invoking Godwin's law for EXJWs, but i can't help thinking he learnt that at daddy elders knee. I really do. It's textbook The Bad

Q: Does he make his own book available for free? If not, why not?
He wasn't going to make the bootlegged copies free, let alone his own book😂 If I recall correctly he was going to charge a tenner for them?
He also failed to mention what really bugged people....that he was advertising his website on the cover of the bootlegged Crises of Conscience he was selling😂🙄

Kim has Mr. Novosello really been engaged as his solicitor? Did he actually admit to being? I think Lloyd wrote that letter himself, it was so unprofessional and let's face it Lloyds got a big enough ego to think he could. Also Lloyd's a complete crook and I think he bunged that guy some money to use his letter headed note paper.
Kim he's not suing anyone !!! He's lying to his patrons to get their money & sympathy. We have to tell them!
I think you should counter sue. He's lying about you publicly, Kim. That way he will be forced to put up or shut up and well find out if Mr. Novosello is legit his solicitor, or not.

Kim has mr. Novoselo actually admitted to being his solicitor, please? Did he admit to writing the letter and, if he did, is he qualified?
It's just I did some undergraduate law modules and it really didn't seem a legit legal letter to me, notwithstanding the language issues.
I think this dude allowed him maybe as a favour to a mate or maybe because he bunged him some cash, to use his name, whilst Lloyd (with his big ego thinking he could) wrote that letter himself!!!
I think you should sue him. For reals. He is slandering you, Kim. He is taking money off of those patrons whilst he either slinks off somewhere else with more hookers, or bums around doing nothing. Either way it's false pretences to say he's working.
Seriously Kim please counter sue. Then you will see whether he has really engaged the services of a solicitor or not and he will at least be forced to pay poor old Novosello who has been thrown head first into this mess (if indeed he is a student. If not I've no sympathy for him)
NB Tell Tale has a much bigger platform, how come no one is going after him if it's all about the size of your platform, Lloyd???

I hope there are no problems for you with your family. I've never been in your situation myself but I've read and heard the stories of many many people who have. The two main pieces of advice they all give is to not be too dogmatic about things and to pose everything as a question, rather than a statement of fact. Known as 'socratic questioning' it encourages their own critical thinking skills to kick in and helps to stop them doubling down on their beliefs (which, by the way, you might find they do as a reflex bourne of conditioning).
The other thing they advise is to be the best husband and father you can, even if you're struggling. This might be especially true in your daughters case but what they mean by that is to try to do things with them away from the cult. So fun family bonding stuff....anything to allow them to see that you haven't changed as a person and that life away from watchtower can be satisfying, fun & safe etc. It also gives them breathing space to start to think for themselves. Many people have said that physical time & space away from constant reinforcement of watchtower beliefs allowed them to really think properly (it's also why cults insist so strongly on meetings).
I wish you all the best my friend and I'm happy another person will not be waisting their life in servitude to watchtower!

When did JWs stop reciting the Lord’s Prayer together?

I was taught to say the Lord's prayer as a child, were you SBF?
Have they stopped saying it? Or at least saying it publicly? I do remember being taught that one shouldn't repeat prayer by rote, without thinking about what I was praying like the Catholics do.
I remember as a youngster feeling a bit guilty for praying the Lord's prayer at night because I was too tired to say my "own"😂

8 Year Old Can Decide If They Are Transgendered

After Caitlyn Jenner essentially led the women's march, a man who abandoned his wife & four children, Joe Biden tweeted "Trans rights are the civil rights issue of our time".
A week later Hunter Biden refuses to pay child support.
That says it all to me, just how much these woke men really value women and children.

You can be mentally in (and think it’s the true religion) and still celebrate birthdays. It’s part of what makes POMIs particularly annoying.
I agree. This is also a good way of 'celebrating, but not celebrating', allowing friends and family to do something nice for her, whilst not directly benefitting her.
From what I can gather it seems Lloyds family were willing to continue their relationship if he didn't disassociate (for his father in particular), and for his sister if he discontinued his very public activism.
There are ways to take down The Tower behind the scenes, without your face being front and centre. I take it 'producer Bob' is one such person. If it were me I'd take that route so I could maintain contact with my family, for the sake of my kids.
But I guess that route isn't financially rewarding.
