I think it is messed up that they are giving brothers direction which will put them in harms way. Will they really lose all belief if they aren't getting the latest WT study material? Just tell them to buy a different translation of the bible and to keep their personal faith alive. Idiots!

look closely at he picture of “russian” police breaking in to what appears to be a utility shed.. first, you’d have to be a complete moron to believe anything you see.. the “police” are shown using a garden pic to open a door.

Last man, I came to realize that ALL of the pictures in the WT publications are staged. They all have subtle little aspects that he Witnesses pick apart as though it had been a candid , spontaneous picture. Spontaneity is not welcome among the Witnesses. You might even say that the pictures are dishonest.
The photos of people preaching around the world are the worst. They are always preaching in some tourist destination and the locals are very interested in the message. JWs even know that it is fake because it isn't like that in real life. My wife and I went to this local tourist spot, it's a large park with museums, fountains, gardens etc. There were lots of people there because they had an event with food trucks and live music. Everyone is having a good time eating, walking their dogs, hanging out on the grass. Guess who we see on the main plaza? Two JWs manning a literature cart. No one is talking to them, everyone is having fun except them. It was very sad.

I wonder how many people were thinking about how that would be a great excuse to leave! Finally, a good out, you were just too afraid of the persecution. I mean hiding literature in your house? Buying an extra electronic device to store PDFs of "spiritual food"? Meeting in secret? Taking direction from people who place more importance on keeping you as a member than whether or not you get tazed? No, thanks.

Will we eventually evolve into “Creators” GODS?
by I believe in overlapping inhumanity is slowly leaving behind ancient stories of a god who created adam and eve and punished their children for eating the forbidden produce.
some people with vision like yuval noah harai, sam harris, elon musk, and others, caution the intellectuals of the world to tread cautiously in regard to artificial intelligence, (ai) development.
most experts don’t share their viewpoint mostly because they think they know more than they do, and they think they are smarter than they are.

Changing Halls isn't going to change the fact that the WTS/Jworg. was and still is a sinningcommercialized false prophet acting in apostasy against Jesus's instructions for preaching his New Kingdom Gospel and all those who participate and support this organization are sharing of the sins of this organization
Now you see my wife isn't quite on this level yet and honestly if some of the teachings bring her happiness then why should I try to stop her? My goal is just for her to accept my viewpoint without informing the Elders or letting everybody in the hall know what is going on. Her whole family is in the org as is mine. I want to be able to distance myself quietly without raising any red flags which will be hard to do.

Moving to a different hall might be a good thing...not knowing the people and having to form new bonds can be very eye opening....
True, it's just I think we both have different motivations for moving to a new hall. She wants a fresh start to try to be more spiritual and I want to get away from people who know me and continue to distance myself from JW life.
