“How to keep a leash on as many as possible without looking like assholes”…
…quite the problem.

in holland we say "not because it is requierd, but because it's possible.
before we shaved, and now we let it grow.
pinky ring, too!.
I’ve long felt that JW Broadcasting was one of the best things that ever happened…
…they found their true calling as televangelists, and we were proven right.
Honestly, I suspect the only thing that woke up more still-ins was Covid.
i have been following a number of posts discussing the august watchtower study magazine.
i really don't believe this common idea being passed around that it's being timed for the annual meeting.
here's why.. the august watchtower will be available on servers not long before its public release.
Yeah, real sad, I’m all broken up about it.
the upcoming governing body update, set to be released on friday this week, will feature a bearded samuel herd.. jwtalk website revealed the leak, so this thread will be used to speculate the content of the update and discuss the actual contents after its release..
NotFormer- “…Beard Approval is a great term and a great way to mark the JW calendar…”

what are your memories of hall cleaning?.
i actually enjoyed it on the whole, my dad as the elder always tried to keep it to under one hour but in my later years in a hard-line congregation it was a chore.
the po's wife had a printed list and we had to complete it all before left (or got disapproving looks if we left after an hour).. as well as vacuuming the whole building the lost said you had to dismantle the vacuum and clean and polish all the internal elements.
Las Malvinas - “…There is no evidence that Jesus associated with people who dated sex workers…”
That…
…seems like a very strange thing to say.
For a number of reasons.

“The Twelve”…
…sounds like a superhero team.

in an earlier thread another poster asserted that there is no evidence that revelation 3:14 played a part in the 4th controversy that led to the trinity doctrine.
this was claimed as evidence that the description of jesus as “the beginning of the creation of god” in the verse was not understood to mean that jesus was god’s first creation.
the scholarly greek–english lexicon of the new testament & other early christian literature 3e (2001) by bauer, arndt, gingrich, and danker, in its latest edition states that “first creation” is indeed the probable meaning of the greek phrase.
Wonderment - “…a common problem I see from ex-JWs is that somehow, at least some, have implied or concluded that any teaching associated with JWs must be simply wrong. I disagree with such assessment...”
Me too.
Even a busted clock is right twice a day.

I thought Sanderson and Jackson actually looked pretty decent with a beard.
This guy, though? Not so much.
