9Further thoughts on the new media Center project
by nowwhat? inthe organization figured out that a big building project gives the rank and file something to be engaged in and excited about.
it distracts them from their hamster wheel life.
and it buys them another 5 years until the next big thing.

Changed From "Disfellowshipped" to "No Longer One of Jehovah's Witnesses!
by Atlantis ina friend is trying to figure out the approximate date or letter, which indicated a change from the wording of public announcements.. they changed from saying the person has been disfellowshipped to saying that a person was no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.. i thought it was around the time of the bulgaria scandal.. could you help us out to remember when this change took place?
if we could remember the approximate year, we could look up all the boe's for that year and might find the letter.. many thanks!.
atlantis!.

I used to be in good enough standing to be interviewed at the assemblies. You practice what you will say in front of the elder that will interview you. Just before the session the DO and CO listen to the part and tell you to change what you say(lie). They say it would be more “encouraging “ to the brothers if you took this out and said this.
All bullshit

I was one of the suckers, but I woke up in time to salvage a decent part of my life.
If there is a god, the leaders of this religion have a lot to answer for. They are beyond decent human beings, manipulating honest decent people for their own benefit and profit.

I’ve never understood the one big customer economic theory. Canada exports 98% of our oil to the US, at the same time importing 19 billions dollars worth of oil every year. Riddle me that one.
Canada has access to three oceans. Why be a price taker from the US? Put the oil on a boat and sell it to the highest bidder.

Yes, some of them were different. We went to a few meetings stateside and noticed different articles in theirs.

A person could have moved house, or across the country, kept showing up on zoom. The elders would never know. A perfect opportunity to just disappear of their radar when things open up again.

Are Jehovah Witness willing to end studies?
by Maria Nieves inhttps://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-study-october-2020/how-to-conduct-a-bible-study-that-leads-to-baptism-part-two/.
i recently came across the above watchtower article which spoke about conducting bible studies which lead to baptism.
it progressed to say that if the bible study instructor does not see growth within the student or the desire to work towards baptism, then the studies should end.

"Great Reset" and the Borg
by mikeflood inwow, just watched a video from the 'world economic forum' , a respectable organization by the way, not the usual conspiracy lunatic theorist.
it says that by 2030 meat is gonna be a treat not widely available like today, that the us is not gonna be a global superpower anymore, instead a handful of countries will dominate and that people is not gonna own nothing but will be happy.. well, that would help the borg to keep the craziness going on.. thoughts?
what's this great reset?.

People are dumping currency in favor of “safe” assets. Real estate, cryptocurrency, precious metals and equities. As last man standing pointed out currency is being debased and there will be inflation. A healthy economy needs it as a small percentage. Governments are printing money like there’s no tomorrow and inflating the money supply. Inflation is not all about an inflated money supply. It is also about a shortage of goods and services real or perceived. We saw it last spring with the run on toilet paper. Even though the supplies were ample the perception of a shortage caused panic buying and suppliers could charge more.
Covid 19 is creating disruptions in the supply chain that has and will lead to shortages that will fuel inflation. Governments giving out “free” money as stimulus compound the problem.
It seems to me that governments want people to be dependent on them. They are taking away the opportunities for people to be independent and wanting to introduce basic income which will lead to more problems in the end.
