hi, i am currently supporting a jw colleague with some work problems and have advised them to join our trade union for official support.
am i right that jehovah 's witnesses can't vote or contribute to political funds, but they can join trade unions?
thanking anyone who can help me understand.
Yes. Had this come up in what became a congregational matter between biz owner and his JW employees who decided to join a labor union. The owner tried to get the elders to beat the employees up with a WT article from the 1950's that said trade unions were tools of the devil. WT Service Desk said "things change" so never rely on old articles from 50 years ago.
Personal decision.
guess that is the sort of person being attracted to the truth these days!.

I'm not sure about the "heaven" part of it all, but I think it a good idea to expedite his departure.
Remember Mark Esper?
Trump just fired him this week.
Do you think it's a coincidence that Esper is on record for opposing the use of US Troops on US soil for any reason?
i remember so many witnesses who were pretty liberal minded.
i knew some that were the ones someone would talk to to get a “balanced “ perspective.
they were not hardliners.
I thought we were all meeting up right here!

jehovah's witnesses—faith in action, part 1: out of darkness.

And during the WT Study they'll spend 10 minutes discussing and "applying" the pictures as though they were real history discovered in an old box at the British Museum.
Now RUDY GIULIANI has petitioned to appear IN COURT on behalf of Trump in their PA election case.
I don't think they give a flying f*** about the PA Court other than to present the case and get a ruling (likely a loss) and move on. Rudy just said (don't recall what network) that their goal is to get to SCOTUS.
Deja vu 2000?
Can you say "rioting in the streets"? Get your ammo now, folks!
this topics get a great deal of discussion here.
what i find interesting is even some of my pimi family is embracing the reality that all is not well with jw.org and that many current jws are just going through the motions due to not having a good way out of the org.
wondering what could realistically lead to the collapse of jw.org in the not distant future?
I agree that there will be a very gradual descent into almost nothingness. ~ Eden
Eden, I think you are indeed a prophet, because the fact of the matter is that WT/JW's are already at the point of "nothingness" to everyone except active JW's and Ex-JW's. No one else gives a shit about them. Especially now that they aren't waking people up early on Sat & Sun mornings.
If he is so confident Biden will.screw up he has the chance to run again in 4 years. This may not be a viable option of he continues his current course of action.
I doubt that anything he has done has affected any Trump voters.
The news comes three days after The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump super PAC that was founded in 2019 by an outspoken group of "Never Trump" Republicans, posted McGee's and Hicks' contact information to their 2.7 million Twitter followers with the message, "Make them famous," along with an emoji depicting a skull and crossbones.

WOW!
And you condone this?
RINO Republicans (Swamp Dwellers) from the Lincoln Project make threats against Trumps counsel intimidating them to withdraw?
Note that their withdrawing had nothing to do with the validity of the case.
