Can TiKToK spy on you?
by Fisherman inseveral years ago i was having a conversation with a neighbor inside a store and he told me that he was in the park one day with a friend who was then struck by lightning and after a few moments after being struck they walked away from there and while they were walking away my neighbor told me that his friend got hit by lightning a second time ki&&ing him.
after telling me this story lightning struck and we heard thunder.
coincidence or act of god?

Naked in the New World
by neat blue dog ini know there was a painting of a woman being resurrected naked and someone coming to greet her holding clothes, but what about after perfection, after the thousand years?.
the idea is we're supposed to achieve what adam lost by returning to human perfection, so wouldn't that include not wearing clothes, especially as the act of adam and eve hiding in the trees and sewing fig leaves signified shame, and imperfection passed on through the reproductive organs.
has the wt ever addressed this?

It's bad enough being in the presence of Jobots...but naked ones is a step too far. the thought has given me permanent erectile dysfunction.

The elephant in the room post
by joey jojo inis it ok to talk about the ongoing post about 'he who must not ne named"?.
my perspective: im a neutral observer.
i dont know lloyd evans, im not an active member of any ex-jw group (except this one i guess).

I'm not interested in 'he who shall not be named' and neither do I watch ex Jobot youpube vids. I'm hopefully beyond all that.
There's a life out there without getting entangled in all the other stuff. I never get involved with that post you mention, it just seems like a load of village gossip when I did tacitly look. It's one I really don't have the energy to get involved in.
I wonder if it's more about sniping than genuine concern.
I'm still looking for the rich widow. the search continues.

Bring on the YOUNG elders
by enoughisenough inthere seems to be a push to fast track the younger men to become elders.
beings jesus was 30 when he took up his ministry, i would think that would sort of be an age gauge...the older men were to have their children in subjection, so some were old enough to have children that were old enough to want to rebel.
( that's my slant ) how will the ones who have been jw for years respond to being counseled by those younger than some of their grandchildren?

Fooly - I notice how the rich celebrity Jobots rarely get in to trouble. Money talks to the GB. How else would TOMO the turd get drunk on fine Whiskey and protect his beloved paedos?

I was an Elder(tm) and was DA'd(tm). I saw how corrupt the WBT$ was. Not a real religion but a big business posing as a religion to get money for those at the top. The scales fell from my eyes. Nothing to do with 'bitterness(tm)' or 'sex(tm)'. It was to do with HONESTY.
I don't know why other Elders(tm) just can't see this. Wilful ignorance? Tribal delusion?

Tonus - 'progressive understanding' is impossible to distinguish from 'making it up as we go along.'
I love this definition.

Fooled - It makes me laugh when young Elders(tm), give sexual advice when all they've ever done is read about it in the Watchtower(tm) or just touched themselves.

A new generation of anointed that will not pass away.
by Fisherman inobviously, the older “ anointed ” from 1914 died.
and because they were anointed, they hopefully went to heaven.
in the first century though, a newer generation did not replace the old.

FM - I know you're pulling our legs. Why not just admit that you're having fun spoofing us?
Valid dictionary definition seems to me.
All of these words are valid in a Dick'n'Harry, so it's has no authority; adds up to nothing.
Here are some other words in a Dick'n'Harry:
Cup. Artefact. Cat. Link. Paddle. Handcuffs. Bondage. Discipline.

Ernie - I do visit Cambridge from time to time because it's just up the road from me. Rather picturesque. The cafe in M&S is a bit low brow but has a nice view and decent soup. I can just about stand students and bikes.
FM - WT claims progressive understanding and not that wt teachings is an un changeable standard.
How silly of them. they really are silly billies!
