So, not receiving your yearly handout of a million USD per year from the Wild Beast is now considered 'persecution'?

Science News article: ‘Case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans
by Disillusioned JW ina news article has the headline of " ‘case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans"; see https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/oct/19/case-closed-999-of-scientists-agree-climate-emergency-caused-by-humans .
the article says in part the following.. 'the scientific consensus that humans are altering the climate has passed 99.9%, according to research that strengthens the case for global action at the cop26 summit in glasgow.. the degree of scientific certainty about the impact of greenhouse gases is now similar to the level of agreement on evolution and plate tectonics, the authors say, based on a survey of nearly 90,000 climate-related studies.
this means there is practically no doubt among experts that burning fossil fuels, such as oil, gas, coal, peat and trees, is heating the planet and causing more extreme weather.. a previous survey in 2013 showed 97% of studies published between 1991 and 2012 supported the idea that human activities are altering earth’s climate.. this has been updated and expanded by the study by cornell university that shows the tiny minority of sceptical voices has diminished to almost nothing as evidence mounts of the link between fossil-fuel burning and climate disruption.. the latest survey of peer-reviewed literature published from 2012 to november 2020 was conducted in two stages.

I upvote some things that Vidquin shares and I certainly don’t need Rivergang or Joey-Joe Joe to explain anything to me… other than how they expect to produce batteries for EVs without someone raping the environment or groups of people who inhabit areas where rare minerals are to be found.Good for you if you upvote Vidquns Facebook memes that attempt to offer scientific evidence to support his claims.
Seeing you asked, here is an article that might interest you:

Struggling to find a purpose
by My Name is of No Consequence ini spent most of my life in the org.
we were taught that our purpose in life was to serve jehovah.
that never really made sense to me, but it was still a purpose to keep going.

I've heard it said that one measure of happiness relates to our education matching our intelligence.
Another quote is that if you do what you love, you will never work another day in your life.
Most of us raised as JW's did not have the chance to explore our interests. Our parents and the elders actively discouraged higher education and cautioned about spending too much time in selfish pursuits. We ended up taking menial jobs just to wait it out for Armageddon.
No wonder there are so many unhappy jws.
Very few JW's nurture their childrens talents and interests related to higher education.
This no doubt plays a role in causing dissatisfaction in life as we have gotten older and we regret lost opportunities.
On a bright note, more people than ever are attending higher education as mature age students, so if you feel you have an itch that you never scratched as a young jw, you can always sign up to a course, join a club, or whatever. You never know who you will meet and what it will lead to.

The pandemic was talked up as a sign we are in the last day of the last part of the last part of the last day before the last day, or whatever it was Stephen Lett said.
Now the world is returning to normal maybe a lot have woken up to the fact that the pandemic hasn't led to the new system and that this earth just keeps spinning, regardless of what the GB say is going to happen.

My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang
by Sea Breeze ina new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.
wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.
that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.

Without being dogmatic- because I am certainly no astrophysicist, the JWST causing a re-think of early universe modelling does not automatically imply that the only alternative is a creation theory.

Nephilim...Only desired females
by RULES & REGULATIONS inbible questions answered.
who were the nephilim?.
the bible account says that “the sons of the true god began to notice that the daughters of men were beautiful.” (genesis 6:2) those ‘sons of god’ were actually spirit creatures who rebelled against god when they “forsook their own proper dwelling place” in heaven, materialized human bodies, and “began taking as wives all whom they chose.”—jude 6; genesis 6:2.. the hybrids born from this unnatural union were no ordinary children.

Vidqun,
So much of the stuff you post has been shown to be mis-represented, out of context and unreferenced. For example, the picture of the electric vehicles rotting in a field was debunked at least a year ago.
At what point do you ask yourself if it's actually you that has got it wrong?
The CSIRO, the peak scientific body in Australia has just released a report showing that temperatures have risen by 1.5C in Australia over the last 100 years, pretty much in line with world trends.
We are now in the situation where insurance companies won't insure properties because the risk of severe weather events, like floods and fires, has become too high for them.
The scary part is there are a lot of people like you that see all this and will offer any other reason for extreme climate events occurring , no matter how unscientific and stupid it is, as long as human activity isn't blamed.

Disillusioned.
Try it for yourself- put ice cubes in a glass and fill it to the brim with water. As the ice melts it wont spill over the top because the volume of the glass is already filled with water. No more water is being added.
I didnt have time to write more about the polar caps melting but there is a big difference between Arctic ice and Antarctic ice.
Arctic ice is sitting on the water like an ice cube and as it melts in doesnt add any more volume to the oceans. Antarctic ice is sitting out of the water on land in giant sheets. As it melts, it will add to the volume of water in the oceans and contribute to sea level rise.
From what Ive read though, another factor is thermal expansion of the ocean. As temperatures rise, the volume of the oceans expands. So, melting glacier ice + thermal expansion = sea level rise.

elder school and jabs
by enoughisenough ini watched a video ( can't think which one now.
)..and the presenter said he had been given unverifiable information from an elder's wife that the elders needed to have the "jabs" in order to attend elder school in person now and there wasn't to be a zoom, and if they didn't have the jabs, they needed to contact the branch.
( my thought: when will these toothless lions (elders) wake up and be real men and use their god given intelligence and quit allowing the manipulation?

Hi again Vid,
The only reason I comment on your posts, is for anyone that upvotes it, or for the casual reader that accepts what you have posted without checking.
So in this latest post you talk about Arctic ice melting and flooding the world. No expert believes this to be case.
Why?
Because Arctic ice melting will have zero effect on ocean levels. It is like an ice cube in a drink, as it melts, it doesnt magically add more water to the glass. The total amount of water is already in the glass, except some of it is in frozen form.
You posted a link from NASA in another post, I suppose that means you trust NASA as a source. Here is another post showing how the Arctic Ice is indeed shrinking. It even has a slider so you can see it for yourself.
