  You're at the age where you should have some plans for your future. Getting free from WT isn't enough. You have to have a plan because at some point Mom & Dad aren't going to want to continue to support you.

  Good luck!

  so did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.

  full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.

  the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

  Better to keep 'em down on the farm than send 'em to school where they might learn something.

  when is the kingdom of god coming?.

  on being asked by the pharisees when the kingdom of god was coming, he answered them: “the kingdom of god is not coming with paratherisis; 21 nor will people say, ‘see here!’ or, ‘there!’ for look!

  the kingdom of god is in your midst.” —lu 17:20,21. .

  To what branches was this direction given?

  The latter part talks about privacy information. That is not an issue in the US.

  interesting remark i overheard today.

  the physical attendance for the sunday meeting, in my local area, was 10. i tried to find out those on zoom.

  I think a lot of people are using the " safety " as an excuse to not attend in person. I think more than a few have made a run for it over the last two years.

  We have a family member doing this very thing. Refusing to attend in person meeting by claiming to be afraid of putting elderly JWs at risk because they work in healthcare. And yes, they have become another one of those MIA JWs who only remains "in" because of their zealous PIMI spouse.
