  Has Gerrit Loesch of the Governing Body been in any more monthly broadcast since he refused to honor a court subpoena?

  just wondering?

  he denied being in subjection to the the watchtower corporation so are they still using him in their regular monthly broadcast.

  Are You "Technically" Still A Jehovah's Witness?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  even if you don't regard yourself as a practicing jw, some may view you simply as inactive, a lost sheep, etc.. if you were baptized but not disfellowshipped or disassociated, you may still be a jw---right?

  your thoughts please..

  I have not attended any meetings in nearly 10 years including the memorial. I just became inactive.

  Elders do not call on me, nobody from the congregation has.

  A sister from another cong usually sends me the mags, kms each month plus the new releases.

  So I guess they consider me inactive.

  I don't consider myself a witness , I don't believe anything anymore and want nothing to do with religion but have never mentioned that to anybody in the congregation, but I never see or hear from anybody in the cong.

  since this is the first weekend of rcs, anyone going that can give estimates of how many are getting baptized, how many appeared about that were jw youth, and what attendance figure is at these rcs?.

  i know u.s. baptisms are declining.

  can any keep a running report?

  I think the increase in baptism figures is because younger children are getting baptized.

  Stephen Lett: Crazy Old Kook or Just Really Bad Actor?

  so, i am reposting this video from wifibandit's thread since it is a bit off topic.

  i watched this video and i have to say that this guy really creeps me out.

  his slow and methodical gestures coupled with with his over-annuciation of every word makes him appear absolutely crazy!.

  How can they let Lett represent them? I'd keep him out of the public eye.

  Yes, I'd be ashamed if I was still a jw that these horrible idiots are in charge of my religion.

  This video teaches a child that if he/she spends their money on something for themselves they are selfish and disloyal, whereas if you give it to the gb you make Jehovah happy and prove yourself faithful.

  So, kids are not allowed to buy an ice cream cone or some other treat for themselves, all of their money must be donated to the gb?

  I have a feeling that jw broadcasting will feature a segment on giving donations each month from now on.

  There is definatly something wrong with Lett.

  And this is an Historic Broadcast? Well, it is the first one to beg for money, perhaps it is a longer one so Lett can repeat his plea for more money ad nauseum.

  Their worst broadcast by far.

  And did anybody else notice that JW.org has replaced Watchtower on the France branch office bldgs?
