I'm not sure I actually understand the question.
However, the WBT$ will never apologise for anything.
do they get apology for getting the boot?.

study article 50. listen to the voice of the fine shepherd.
9 consider an experience that illustrates how jehovah can care for our material needs.
a couple in full-time service drove over an hour in their old car to pick up some sisters living at a refugee center and take them to a christian meeting.
Where was Jehovah(tm) here? Tea break? Smoko? The khazi?

The Watchtower won't mention this.
the Lillelid family, who were returning from a religious convention.
What Wiki has now edited out (hmmmm, wonder why?), is that they were coming back from a JW convention.
this magazine says it all!.
and many of the older jws believed at one point in their life that they would make it through the great tribulation and into the 1000 year reign of christ without dying.
which is why so many jws stayed in so long.. is the main reason why jws ignore all the child abuse, the end of door to door service, and the closing of kingdom hall for almost two years----because they still believe they will not die?.
Did you at one time Believe-that you were not going to die.
Does your still in JW spouse still believe?
Yes. She's my Ex-spouse and got married to another Jobo.
Wasn't I a twit!?!!
is bible prophecy now starting to come true regarding a prelude to the great tribulation?.
full disclosure: i still don't believe in the bible's claims about the existence of the supernatural, even of jehovah god (i'm an atheist and a scientific/philosophical naturalist), but i am asking this question because recent events are starting to seem (to me) to fit well the description of some prophecies in the bible.
consider the following.. several hours ago (on 11-26-2021) as i was about to enter a local fred meyer store of my city (in suburb or small city in the metro area of a large city) a person i know told me that a moment earlier a person left the store in a hurry with a cart load up with unpaid merchandise (i think i was told it was groceries but i don't remember that for sure).
doing what the WT/JW religion have been doing for the past 145 years or so looking for signs ?
It seems 'believers' look for signs in their own lifetime and have done for 100s of years.
that was me once.
Nothing has happened...and I don't believe for one moment it ever will.
It's smacks of desperation that some bigger force will make your life better.
the main reason most got the vaccine was to protect others.
now they’re being told they can spread it just as easily as the unvaccinated.
quotes;.
The BBC. Say no more, squire.
I refuse to watch the BBC now, they're a biased bunch of pillocks. Their news reporting is all lefty opinion based and not worth wasting time on. They're not worth the licence fee.
he is accused of downloading kiddie porn on his work computer, and was caught by the feds.
now he is facing 20 or 25 years in prison on each count.
what i find interesting, is the common.
Being in the UK, it's not a name I know.
It seems the UK Police are seeing a few predators from their own ranks put in the dock recently. Bloody filth that they are. These are the ones that should be spotless when it comes to crime. Often here, the Police are the most corrupt filth. I don't think they're particularly intelligent, just goons and a mob that are afraid of real conflict. They'd sooner go after someone who hurt a snowflakes feelings on twatter rather than tackle real crime...most of which they're committing themselves.
You can't trust anyone in 2021...not a single person at all.
Let me know your thoughts
Those with an agenda will sway it their way somehow. Whether they pillory him or hold him up as a hero, beware the lies of the MSM.
I hear that in America the MSM actually influence juries. Please let it not be true.
did your congregation have cliques?.
usually centred around two competing elders (or the elder's wife).
it could made obvious by whether you got to answer in the wt study.
I've seen the 'in crowd' in congregations so many times.
There was one family where the wife knew all the gossip about everyone. Even though her husband was a violent brute and had affairs with other women. Even when he was DF'd they still had the 'groupstudy(tm)' at his house. Not long after he became an Elder(tm).
You couldn't make it up. But, that's the power of money and 'in crowd' status.
what if i told you that we needed a whistle?
probably the dollar store.
or walmart.
It looks sh1t. Even sh1ttier at those prices.
FFS, what is wrong with people?
They are sheep with no imagination or method of rational thinking outside of the box.
Was it Bowie that said the public have bad taste?
anyone watching this?
i've just started the 3rd and final episode which starts with i presume stella (no, heather) mccartney as a little kid playing in the studio while they record.. overall it's an amazing behind the scenes view of how they created the album and likely how they worked, the past songs and times they referred to and the camaraderie they had most of the time.. mccartneys song-writing and musical brilliance comes through of course.. overall i give it 5 stars if you're a beatles fan but can see it being too long if you're not.. personally, i have an ever-growing collection of outtake recordings of the beatles and bob dylan and have often come to like them more than the released tracks because they are just so raw and unpolished and you often get to hear how a song developed and evolved over time to the version you finally heard released.. who knew we'd be getting some fresh beatles material all these years later?!.
who knew so many fluffy coats and jackets could be worn by so many people in one place..
I used to be a real Beatles 'completist'. That was my trouble, I've heard those song too many times that I need a bit of a rest from them, as great as they are.
I still love Penny Lane though.
My 1st wife's Dad used to 'roadie' for them in the Cavern days.
Which reminds me, I must catch up with the Rutles.
i have a daughter of a old witness friend that i knew since she was born.
she obviously has mental problems like her mom did so i just go with it .
she is a sweet kid but was recently hooked on pain pills bad.
If you are still associating with them how do you handle it?
I don't, so it isn't a problem.
Don't they depress you and wear you down?
They would do, but I just don't have anything to do with them.
