In the latest? jw.borg video Lett used some scripture to show that anointing can happen many years after baptism. So a person with the earthly hope can at any time proclaim themselves anointed and be appointed to the governing body. I’m not sure if this is noo light but it is a convenient way to keep the sham alive.

Notice how many new governing body members come from outside headquarters? I did. A big fat Zero. They are all chosen from the inner party. Being anointed is a job requirement so they have a sip of wine on memorial night to keep their job

When You Were A Witness Did You Believe Everything Taught?

obviously at some point you stopped believing the witnesses had the truth or else you wouldn’t be here.

.

but for the most part, were you a true believer or were you typically a rebel or a doubter?

hoser

Yes, I believed it all and berated myself for not being able to live up to the standard the watchtower corporation expected.

The health department wants to drag this out as long as they can. Now it’s variants of concern but if you call it by the country where it originated you are a racist.

Is the collateral damage acceptable? 2-4 % of convictions are overturned as being erroneous. Is it socially acceptable and beneficial to sacrifice a small percentage of innocent persons to protect the majority of law abiding Americans?

They should hold a referendum on the subject and keep the names of those who support the idea. Every time an innocent person is proven beyond a doubt that they were wrongly executed, the government should pick a name of a death penalty supporter at random and execute that person.

We have governments to thank for protecting their populations, as well financing and distributing the vaccines which is going to put their populations back to a state of normalcy.

Is it valid to be overly critical and disrespectful for these people's objectives and endeavors ?

Governments to thank???

Who exactly do you think is going to pay for this mess? You and I. Where I live the response was bungled from day one. But what do you expect when our health minister is a graphic designer and our prime minister is a substitute teacher living off his wealthy families trust fund.

this is a sobering reminder of what happened some 40 years ago when raymond franz and others were literally kicked out from the jehovah's witnesses for having pre-arranged private spiritual discussions.lesson: paragraph 7 is another example of the i and t in dr. steven hassan's bite model of the 21st century cult - information and thought control at its best!!!!

"my gosh, there must be a lot of independent meetings these days.

They don’t want anyone to develop a thinking problem.
