It's a low priority for sure but if there's any chance of getting this fixed Simon I'd love to bring Gromit back.
Aww c'mon, look into those eyes 😀
on my profile, under "update avatar", i click on "upload avatar image" and choose the picture i want, but it doesn't work.
i know it says there may be a slight delay but i've been waiting for more than 12 hours so i'm wondering if there's something wrong with the site, or if i'm missing something..

Kim. 9:45 to 9:55.
Have I misunderstood the intent behind your words? Please clarify.

I'm hardly part of the Lloyd Evans fan club but intimating that a man is a sexual threat to his own daughters is pretty fucking low.

Alan Feurbacher, Leolaia, Amazing and many, many others who stayed behind their pseudonyms and eschewed the limelight.
There were others like Kent Steinhaug who provided valuable inside documents on his WT Observer site and of course Atlantis who is still doing it unpaid and with no sense of ego.
The self-important statement by Evans that his work is "too important" to be stopped shows just how blind he is to all but his own interests and efforts.
JW's and XJW's will be just fine without him.

As others have said, he's reached the point where continuing his activism becomes counter productive.
Every video he uploads to YouTube will become a war zone between folks who want to expose him and his followers (sounds like a cult doesn't it?)
JW's who see comments about Thai prostitutes and alleged grooming of 14 year olds will have all their indoctrination and biases confirmed. Of course that doesn't matter to him so long as his face is in front of the camera and the donations keep rolling in.
He's a liability and a joke and others are starting to notice.

Kim Silvio has just issued a new statement. Very sensible advice in my opinion.
the new site at www.apostat.es will provide a few free tools to help us reach out to the jehovah's witnesses we still care about.
podcasts can be hosted for free, as can blogs and articles.
you can create your own store to sell your apostate tee shirts, posters calendars etc.. it will show jw's that apostates are normal, healthy folks who simply changed their minds about their former beliefs.
The situation many apostates find themselves in, shunned and isolated from their family and all the friends they grew up with, is as far from 'normal' as most folks could even imagine. It's a bullying and abusive situation.
So this isn't for you? That's fine.

Thanks for starting this topic Simon, will keep the conversation here. But not now, it is Saturday night 😉
the watchtower's many legal problems and the jws' use of carts in their preaching work, reminded me of a scene and dialog from the film patton.. in a scene where patton is viewing a battle site the morning after, he says to an aide about the nazis: “you know how i know that they're finished out there?
in my dreams i saw the carts.
they kept buzzing around in my head and i couldn't figure out why.
alanv: The large increase before 1975 had nothing to do with more JW children, it was because of people converting from other faiths.
Easy claim to make, have you got the stats to back it up? My guess is that conversions were higher pre-'75 but that they have only ever been a fraction of the baptisms of born-ins.
