A "movement" only has value if it is based on truth and integrity.
Good grief, are you serious?
C’mon people, just because you exited a cult, doesn’t make you, or l, or us a “movement”. A movement describes a “whole” but that hasn’t been shown in any kind of evidence.
Many of us posting here over many years have posted our disavowal of all things Watchtower but have walked different paths.
A “movement” ? I’m not so sure.
I’m more sure of an affection for JWN. - luvs ya peeps !

This issue made prime time news here yesterday with an interview with Australia’s Foreign Minister discussing the issue.

This news item seems relevant, the Thailand connection:

Poser ! 😀😀😀😀
we all know that jws consider the wt religion to be "the truth" and refer to it as such.. granted, that phrase is used repeatedly in the literature and from the platform.. but it's obvious that much of what the organization used to require jws to teach house-to-house as important truths--even within our own lifetimes--has been abandoned.
it's been replaced by "new light" and "refined understanding.
what's meant by "the 1914 generation" is a prime example.. in fact, i think it would be hard to find another religion that has changed so many of its teachings, especially in such a short period of time.. so why do jws still believe their religion to be "the truth"?.
And of course if the R&F say it often enough, in time the habit becomes their reality.

i find this an odd picture ; wouldn’t a caring parent take her to the Children’s books section of the store, like why is she made to wait around in the adult or reference section?

I thought this was a thread about a certain John Cedars/Lloyd Evans, not for ‘canceling’ anybody else.

1 - 3.. almost 2,000 years ago, jesus gave his life in our behalf, opening the way for us to gain everlasting life.
I think it may have been nearly twenty years ago, but I wrote a post here about “The Great Rejection Feast” where I described what ‘the Memorial TM’ represents.
For a Christian, nothing can be more sacriligious than what the Dubs invite people to, to actually distribute the bread and the wine and reject it
Does that make it a Satanic ritual?
i watch a lot of ex-jw videos on youtube and read many of the comments.
recently, i watched a video by an ex-jw whose videos i had never watched before.
i don't remember his handle.. anyway, there was only one comment posted at the time i watched the video.
Not what I would expect but willing to be informed.
in the meantime, I’d be sceptical of unsubstantiated claims.
