Interesting Lloyd has been reduced to doing a sort of telephone "Questions from readers"🤔
I wonder how long before he uses the famous Watchtower technique of formulating his own.....🤨

In ancient Israel, committing adultery with a neighbor’s wife carried the death penalty for both the man and the woman. Polygamy, as practiced in ancient Israel, was not an open marriage.
The trouble is it wasn't just marrying another woman. It also included so-called 'concubines,' which is another word for random woman you are not married to. As long as these women weren't married to another man, the Bible doesn't seem to have an issue.

LouAlso if her dad was an alcoholic then she will have been trained as a child in a trauma bond accidentally because alcoholics offer intermittent emotional availability.
Lou I enjoy "The fairy's" videos. I'm the adult child of an alcoholic with all of those issues as my mum left us and so I'd to care for my alcoholic dad and little brother at 8. I was running a household by 9 with terrible self esteem - both parents accusing me of being just like the other. Then Scapegoated by my stepdad, because he had to keep my mother's past a secret, including us, which made him angry.
No wonder the self hatred of witness theology appealed to me...I didn't even think I was worthy to pray.
It's taken me until nearly 50 to get some fight. I understand Dijana's fearful of her kids being without a family. Her brother is gone, Lloyds family shun them and if there's alcoholism in her parents background, she's fearful of relying on them
No wonder she takes him in. She doesn't want anyone to feel rejected or her children to be hurt by loosing a parent.😔
This whole "bunker" thing was bullshit from the beginning and I told him so. When you think of a crazed maniac stuck in a "bunker" where does your mind take you? That's right the end of world war two with you know who.
New Boy you cracked me up🤣
the other day, i chatted to an elderly woman and her daughter who was about 45-50. total strangers.. we were discussing covid when the daughter said, "my neighbor studies with jw's, and the jw's told her 3 months before the virus started, that they had to stop going from door to door because something was coming.".
i've never heard anything like this before - have you?.
One thing JWs definitely don't have....is the gift of prophecy.;
Ha ! That's an idea....ask them to challenge their neighbour on the many times watchtower is on record as getting things badly wrong. Next week's Bible study will be cancelled.
It was only a matter of time before they predicted the pandemic! Ask them to find it in print and they won't.

Says him and Tibor are looking for a larger industrial sized space to rent. Thanks the Patrons again because they’re paying for it, not him

I think Dijana's parents have finally snapped. You don't get to leave Dijana & the kids and use our home to trash our religion, too.
is there one line of prose or poetry that stopped you dead in your tracks and haunted your mind for days on end?
is there a line, a paragraph or a book that feeds your soul and there is no end to its craving?
share it with all of us.
I love Earnest Hemingway. If Shakespeare is an artist, Hemingway is a craftsman. A draughtsman with words.
This always touches me with its truth:
"If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.”

Re: Lloyds involvement with CSA & domestic abuse & Leah's video.
Whilst I accept we none of us are perfect and we all make mistakes, Lloyd refuses to listen to the feelings of his wife, CSA/DV & abuse victims and women in general. So in my opinion it's not so much what Lloyd has done, but rather that he utterly refuses to understand and accept the connection between CSA, domestic abuse, sexual coersion etc and the sex industry, particularly in Thailand and Eastern Europe.
I realise this was recorded in 2021 but am I right in thinking they've just released it? If Lloyd had asked them to put some kind of disclaimer at the beginning, I might have some respect for him. There might be some way back. But he didn't.
If there are some single guys out there, particularly who've just left the org, who think to themselves "well I've been to a massage parlour in my hometown, that could be me they're judging..."
No, it couldn't. YOU aren't an advocate for domestic abuse victims forced to remain married, who tried to force an open marriage on your wife. YOU aren't an advocate for CSA who visits sex workers in Thailand - over half of which are my minors or who began their "career" as minors. YOU haven't taken donations from CSA victims and used it to pay for potentially trafficked women. YOU haven't tried to bully, doxx, smear & litigate those who know you, who've tried to save you from yourself and call your behaviour out.....as you claim people should do to others.

and here's how judah looks as seen in a recent video - especially posted for those who knew judah over the years.
closet factory testimonial from judah schroeder.
His mother looks so happy in that photo. She knows she's won the golden ticket. Gets to be a female Bethelite, marry a GB member &, more than anything else, have a baby in Bethel when others are forbidden to.
But my how pretentious is Judah "Ben" Schroeder when you're not even Jewish, let alone Israeli.

I notice when he posts photo's of his family, Dijana is missing.
Nicolaou So anyway, is there any movement on the legal front?
Kim S said she'd heard nothing. She's off on her hols in another 20+ days or so. She tweeted if she hasn't heard anything by then, she's never going to give the case, or Floyd Devon's, another thought again!
Quite right too!!!
