as soon as you see steve letts talk at the agm you think to yourself “oh my, what’s happened to him?.
his hand has plasters and his skin doesn’t look healthy, like he has inflammation or something serious going on.. he had put on weight and is all bloated and puffy .
his skin really doesn’t look good, the kind of inflammation many people notice after the experimental covid vaccines.. there have been very high numbers of people reported inflammation after the experimental covid vaccines.
hoser - “At this level these guys must know the whole religion is a sham so he might actually have a small little bit of conscience that comes up once in a while and he has to push it back down and that takes a mental toll on a person.”
I dunno, man…
…Lett doesn’t strike me as mentally sophisticated enough.

re-posting this for reference.. #1 protein functional redundancy comparing the sequences of amino acids in ubiquitous proteins confirms the relationship between all living things..
#2 dna functional redundancy comparison of the dna that codes for the amino acids of ubiquitous proteins predicts the tree of life with an astonishing degree of accuracy..
#3 ervs endogenous retroviruses that infected our ancestors are found in the same place of the genome of our closest primate cousins..
Personally, I think natural selection does a way better job explaining the weirder shit found in nature.
Google “horrifying sea life” for examples.
how much is ramapo going to cost?
my daughter in africa meets in a cow shed for her meetings.
i wonder how many khs in africa they could build if they dropped ramapo?.
All hail Kerfufflupagus!

Guy’s gettin’ old.
Happens to all of us.
perhaps you say the story buried deep in todays paper describing the observed mandibular tooth growth in a strain of mutant chickens.
for decades scientists have been able to coax chicken embryos into forming teeth by overlaying epidemal tissue from repiltes or mice onto the forming jaws of a chicken embryo.
the grafted tissue was not the source of the teeth but was by some unknown mechanism triggering the chickens dormant recessive tooth genes to awake.

Anybody heard of the dino-chicken project?
while most talk about the end of reporting for publishers, i think the doctrinal change is even bigger.. repentance after start of gt still possible?
what does that mean for the judgement message, they pushed a bit lately?.
will that be really just before armageddon?
Maybe the WT leadership is worried that at the rate they’re losing members, they won’t have enough people left to properly start over after the Apocalypse.

this is a little out of date.
i found it earlier deleting some emails from a good few years ago:.
feel free to add new lines to this old list!.
If you feel conflicted watching Breaking Amish…
…you might be a JW.
If you can’t remember what day of the week it is without some kind of benchmark…
…you might be a JW.
If little blue garden gnomes make you nervous…
…you might be a JW.
😏
this is going to break the hearts of a lot of uber-jw's!
reddit has now removed the video link of samuel herd telling jw's they will no longer have to report time or placements - just tick a box which says "active.".

NotFormer - “It would probably be better for all parties if they did. The mental gymnastics of faking, fading and fence-sitting can't be good for mental health.”
Oh, for sure.
(not that the WT leadership gives a shit about the mental health of faders, fakers, and fence-sitters)
I imagine it’s somewhat like the Dursleys and Harry Potter.
They wanted him gone ‘cause they hated him, but at the same time, they wanted to keep him around so they could make his life miserable.
😏
so everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.
beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.
the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?
There’s another possibility that could’ve factored into this decision…
…more and more average JWs working door-to-door, trolleys, and park tables encounter “apostates” who they can’t defend their faith from (without lying), and/or regular householders who know too much about the Org’s pedo problems, and aren’t shy about it (like back in the day when they were accused of being “false prophets”, only way, way worse 😏).
I think it’s entirely possible that we’ve reached a critical mass of nonmembers who know too many uncomfortable facts and truths, and it’s actually started to have a negative impact on the witnessing work.
Changing up the ministry could be an attempt to insulate the rank-and-file from that.
