  Some of these individuals are Uber drivers who are in between lifts. It just may be they're being 'uber' careful after leaving someone off.

  This quote from the letter bears repeating:

  "As a reminder, the branch has directed that neither congregation nor circuit funds should be used to make relief supply purchases. Additionally, separate congregation or circuit accounts should not be set up to fund purchases."

  The above statement pretty much sums-up Mother's greedy, cheap & close-fisted true feelings towards the JW rank & file members!

  The partakers at the Memorial were supposed to be getting fewer and fewer as time went on and when I left about 27 years ago there was only about 8,000 partakers worldwide.

  I remember those days smiddy3. In fact the highlight of every Service Year Report back then was how many fewer partakers there were compared to the year before. As the numbers dwindled...that was an indicator of how much closer we were to the end of this system of things. Everyone looked forward to that lessor number.

  Then the number of partakers had a comeback...steadily increasing to what it is now...21,182.

  Therein lay the embarrassment & predicament for WT. Too many senior JW rank & file who fall in the fifty years old to say 80 years old and older are well aware of this 180° turn of events regarding the increase in partakers in recent years. For many it's like having a face to face encounter with someone who has the largest and ugliest wart on the tip of their nose. How do you not notice it? How do you keep yourself from asking that person the obvious questions about the wart...does it hurt...is it itchy...how long have you had it? It's the same with the increase in partakers...you just don't ask...but still it must make millions wonder...WTF!

  Thank you Atlantis. A C.O. recently stated that his next visit in May of 2021 was more than likely going to be via Zoom again. There's a good chance the U.S. territory will soon get a similar letter from 'Mother' ordering congregations to discontinue Internet services as well.

  ""...there cannot even be coexistent tendencies or schools of thought within the Christian organization." (WT 1983 September 15, p.18)

  Approved association with Jehovah's Witnesses requires accepting the entire range of the true teachings of the Bible, including those Scriptural beliefs that are unique to Jehovah's Witnesses. (WT 1986 April 1, p. 31)"

  And then there is this quote from a few years ago:

  "At that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from Jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint. All of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not. Now is the time for any who may be putting their trust in secular education, material things, or human institutions to adjust their thinking. The elders must stand ready to help any who may now be wavering in their faith." W11/15/2013 pg20 par 17

  There is a common thread or finger print, if you will, through-out all these quotes.

  Oh...how these quotes create within me even more of a dislike for this cult!

  None of those earlier men who considered themselves to be the best person to be elected as the "Leader of the Free World" and the "Most Powerful Person" on earth could be considered "narcissists".

  Putting narcissism aside...I don't recall where any of those earlier men were described as having the attention span of a fruit fly! (John Bolton)

  Too many of Trumps close aides would not argue with John Bolton's assessment of his former boss...they've seen for themselves how unfit, not fit, not capable this fella is/was!

  Does everyone in the Democratic Party want Harris that bad?

  Minimus...It's not about Biden, Harris or the Democratic party...it's about getting this narcissist out of the much respected office of the Presidency and out of the White House:
