It seems that the situation has become so desperate that it's necessary for the poor, even those close to starving, to give so that the fridges in Warwick can be fully stocked. It was Morris who bragged about having an open pantry, providing free basics for Bethelites.

Steven Unthank you've done so much work, you do it so humbly and without all the recognition you deserve. Your dedicated work is up there with the likes of Barbara, Paul Grundy and Simon.
I've only recently heard of Lara Kaput and I thank her for her work also.

Serious Issue ....... that MUST be Addressed !!!!!
by Simon inthis is such an important issue, more and more people are succumbing to what must be some viral outbreak wreaking havoc in the world.. i'm talking about unnecessary punctuation.. it's easy to become infected.
you want to write something and add some emphasis so you add an exclamation mark to make it "important!
" but dang, it's not important enough is it??

I don't understand why this wasn't put in the humour section.
The title uses more than three exclamation marks and dots to grab our attention, which Simon then goes on to say he dislikes.
Personally, I like the way in which people evolve and this includes writing. It gives the opportunity to be more expressive which is a good thing.

Australian Prime minister apology for child abuse.

The section of the speech that you are recalling is probably this -
And the institutions which perpetrated this abuse, covered it up and refused to be held accountable, must be kept on the hook.
Already, many of those organisations have made their own apologies and have signed up to be a part of the National Redress Scheme, as they should.
But there are others yet to join, and today I simply say that justice, decency and the beliefs and values we share as Australians, insists that they sign on.

Australian Prime minister apology for child abuse.

The Prime Minister has given his speech and it was very disappointing. No mention was made of those that did not join the redress scheme. No mention was made as to any particular Royal Commission recomendations being implemented other than they will continue to review them in the future.
All those in attendance to the speeches were supplied with a box of tissues. Why, I don't know because the PMs message was not sincere, he even pretended to choke up when mentioning one abuse victim.
The opposition is currently giving his speech and he is right when he says that apologies are empty without action and there is much more work to do.
These apologies are done to make the politicians look good but it doesn't make the newly appointed PM, Mr Morrison look good at all. More action is needed.

Imagine any country putting laws in place so that when a victim comes forward to religious leaders the abuser is protected but this is exactly what the Watchtower is trying to claim.

Regarding the posters comment -
Also King of the North enters into the land of decoration which we have long maintained is our spiritual paradise.
I found this regarding the 'holy mountain of decoration' -Daniel 11:40-45
40“In the time of the end the king of the south will engage with him in a pushing,* and against him the king of the north will storm with chariots and horsemen and many ships; and he will enter into the lands and sweep through like a flood. 41 He will also enter into the land of the Decoration,*+ and many lands will be made to stumble. But these are the ones that will escape out of his hand: Eʹdom and Moʹab and the main part of the Amʹmon·ites. He will also enter into the land of the Decoration,*+ and many lands will be made to stumble. But these are the ones that will escape out of his hand: Eʹdom and Moʹab and the main part of the Amʹmon·ites. 42 And he will keep thrusting out his hand against the lands; and as regards the land of Egypt, she will not escape. And he will keep thrusting out his hand against the lands; and as regards the land of Egypt, she will not escape. 43 And he will rule over the hidden treasures of gold and silver and over all the desirable* things of Egypt. And the Libʹy·ans and the E·thi·oʹpi·ans will be at his steps.*And he will rule over the hidden treasures of gold and silver and over all the desirable* things of Egypt. And the Libʹy·ans and the E·thi·oʹpi·ans will be at his steps.*44 “But reports out of the east* and out of the north will disturb him, and he will go out in a great rage to annihilate and to devote many to destruction. 45 And he will plant his royal*tents between the grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration;*+ and he will come all the way to his end, and there will be no helper for him.And he will plant his royal*tents between the grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration;*+ and he will come all the way to his end, and there will be no helper for him.Watchtower 87 7/1
16 These final days are especially difficult for God’s people, who during this century have been persecuted by both kings. The angel warned that the king of the north “will also actually enter into the land of the Decoration, and there will be many lands that will be made to stumble.” “The land of the Decoration” is symbolically the land of God’s people. The angel’s words must mean, then, that as well as conquering many nations, the king of the north attacks the spiritual estate of Jehovah’s people. (Daniel 8:9; 11:41-44;Ezekiel 20:6) In Dan 11 verse 45, the prophecy adds: “And he will plant his palatial tents between the grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration.” In other words, he positions himself to make a final assault against their spiritual paradise....Since this attack, like that of the king of the north, takes place in the final part of the days, it is reasonable to conclude that the king of the north’s ‘planting of his palatial tents between the grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration’ is in support of Gog’s attack. (Daniel 11:40, 45) -

The New World (1942) p 324
"The king of the north" "included the Central Powers, or imperial Germany, Roman-Catholic Austria-Hungary, Roman Catholic Italy and Vatican…Japan…"
W 60 2/15With the defeat of the Nazi-Fascist Axis powers in 1945 the Communist government of Russia stepped into the role of the “king of the north,” foretold in Daniel’s prophecy, chapter 11.
W 81 7/15
Since the modern “king of the north” is the Communist bloc, led by the Soviet Union, the “king of the south” can be none other than the rival non-Communist bloc, under the leadership of the United States.
W93 11/1
So who is the king of the north now? Is he to be identified with one of the countries that were part of the old Soviet Union? Or is he changing identitycompletely, as he has a number of times before? We cannot say. Who will be the king of the north when Daniel 11:44, 45 is fulfilled?
W15 5/15As keen students of God’s Word, we wait with eager anticipation to see who in the near future will assume the role of “the king of the north.”
From what I can gather, they have said that the KON's identity keeps changing. -

It doesn't say whether it is the poster that makes the conclusion that the identity of the KON has virtually not changed or whether that was a comment made by Morris III but due to the detail, it may be Morris'. Given that there was a time when they decided it wasn't the USSR and didn't know who it was, it's not only a demonstration of their flip flopping but that they are just guessing.
Whether it is fake news or not regarding Russia being involved in Cyber attacks, the GB believes it. So much for easily being swayed by the media. Do they have evidence or are they simply willing to believe in news reports? By making this claim, without evidence, they are involving themselves in politics and cannot claim to be either neutral or taking heed of their own instructions by not discussing these types of things.
