  2019. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qut4sr9elo.

  so many emotional triggers and not much substance in 2019. at least they highlighted a part of a talk from knorr in the 1958 vid, nothing but a lovefest in the 2019 clip.

  People were so excited to meet the GB back in 1958, as they are today.

  Also , imagine everyones anticipation of the release of the 'Your Will' book, a book I believe is not available on JW org library in 2019 and seems to be a reaction to the nuclear age and an obsession with the launch of the Sputnik satellite.

  International conventions and natiionalism

  by joey jojo in

  i have been seeing a few international conventions posted here and on social media.

  i can't help but notice what seems like blatant nationalism in terms of dress, greetings, welcome signs.

  am i right or have i simply turned into a hyper sensitive loser that is reading too much into things?

  Social media posts from various conventions have been full of cultural dancing, singing and dress and it has left me wondering where the line between celebrating national identity and nationalism is drawn.

  Hi everyone.

  I can't help but notice what seems like blatant nationalism in terms of dress, greetings, welcome signs.

  Am I right or have I simply turned into a hyper sensitive loser that is reading too much into things? 🤔

  The idiots Hollyweird destroys the Bond Franchise

  by rockemsockem in

  2. entertainment

  99% of the people who go to bond films want a straight white english bond with a bit of light sexism and some bond girls thrown in.

  they do not want a tranny bond or a gay or lesbian bond.

  and they do not want a black woman bond.

  A black female bond would be awesome.

  JW`s Claim Their religion is Based Solely on The Bible.

  by smiddy3 in

  well here are a few words that the watchtower / jw`s religion frequently use that do not appear in the bible , either , old testament or the new testament.. organization , sovereignty , reinstatement , governing body .. and in the christian greek scriptures ,the kingdom interlinear that the jw`s published themselves , a word for word translation of the greek to english does not contain the name / word jehovah ......nowhere ..

  Religious belief has nothing to do with truth. It is simply a matter of convenience.

  The GB/ FDS knows this and so they make it as inconvenient as possible for anyone to leave the organisation, particularly if your family is entrenched.

  Jehovah's Witnesses as medical records employees, and Medical Privacy laws.

  by Balaamsass2 in

  this subject has been brought up before.

  the governing body and watchtower have repeatedly encouraged jws to show loyalty to the organization to "keep the congregation clean" by reporting wrongdoing to the elders.. i know directly of two cases.

  two jws working in the records department of our local hospital "outed" 3rd gens 1st husband to the local elders when he and his mistress sought medical treatment together for stds.

  Sensitive information about one of my female relatives was given to her family by a self righteous young witness who worked at the clinic she visited.

  Her family threatened legal action against the clinic worker and the clinic if she persisted and the problem went away.

  It would be interesting to see how far the org would distance itself from a health worker who decided to turn in a fellow believer. I'm pretty sure the org would try to wash its hands of any involvement.

  Should Reparations Be Given To Relatives of Slaves?

  by minimus in

  some people say that’s the least we should do while others say no way!

  .

  what do you think about dispensing reparations?

  During the period of slavery, life was tougher and crime and punishment was brutal for everyone.

  Children were still being hung for crimes in England, flogging was a common sentence.

  All of us have ancestors that have suffered atrocities because of ethnic differences or religious differences. It's not fair and it's immoral. I guess the question is, at what point does it become unhealthy and unhelpful to keep rehashing the past?
