That's not Tony in the photo!!Too young!π
I think Morris stepped down himself because he refused to go along with the new rules. Almost certainly made to sign an NDA in return for a lifelong home & "pension". At least imho.
that was click bait.
did it work?

we know that in africa warwick/watchtower is adopting a policy of more congregations with fewer publishers in each congregation.
this explains the growth of congregations in the 2024 world report.. cameroon world report 2019 vs. 2024.. with the same number of publishers the congregations grew by about 13%.. will there be many more curious cases out there?.
Could it be the reason Germany has way more publishers than Ghana, but a lot less congregations, may be because property is so much more expensive inGermany? Whereas in Ghana they may have congs in places that cost peanuts to build? Just a thought....
this could fun.

when I was a kid dont let me be misunderstood really felt like my theme tune looking back i now realise thats probably because i hit every marker for female ADHD. But I also would love Victoria by the Kinks played at my funeral....the words once rang true and if i have my way it will again (me and Elon lol) for my kids which is why im getting involved in politics. Also Sia Chandelier really sums me up and rings my bells
just hearing about this now.
mike rinder has died.. he was a lifelong scientologist who broke away from the organization and became one of its biggest detractors.. rest in peace, mike!
thanks for what you did to expose cults.. https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/legacyremembers/mike-rinder-obituary?pid=208313152.

Jensus It seems to be automatically translated to German. Wording and form of adress is not coherent with standard JW style
we have a 25 year guy in our hall who is also a pioneer (which means he lives off his parents money), who likes to spend a lot of time with a 16 year old girl in the hall.
it is usually in a group setting but he seems to gravitate toward her.
he even has her auxilary pioneering , which is something i don't think any student trying to make the grades needs.
Jan from TamThey brought in that new UK law making marriage illegal until 18 because muslim girls were being forced to wed abroad by their famillies against their will. The problem was that these girls being 16 were still minors and as such in their parents care so they could insist the girl go abroad and then once there were forced to wed. Hence they changed the legal age of marriage to 18 so the girls could leave home if they suspected they were going to be forced to wed and at 16 made such a marriage illegal (and no use to the groom since the wedding is to obtain citizenship for him and that would be null and void).
Sadly that law affects western girls in your position Jan. I do think the legal age of consent should be 18 (with a Romeo and Juliette 16 to under 21 clause in place)

SBF Very interesting! It looks like their best growth for years.
I think it makes sense given the world at the moment, wars in the middle east and the (sorry cant get rid of this silly face) Ukraine etc make people nervous, theres lots of talk in the media about "WW3" etc together with inflation and food prices etc. It figures that end times religions like JWs are going to take advantaage of anxiety around this kind of thing. Not to mention crime and the horrific terror attacks we read about in the news, too, these days.
