  I was the first brother in my congregation to turn up to the KH with a tablet. Actually, it was a Kindle with PDFs of the Watchtower on it and the NWT in .mobi format.

  I got a good scolding in the back room and lots of snide remarks my the holier than thou members for being "showy". One elder told me "The bible is your sword, how are you supposed to preach with a tablet?".

  Fast forward a year, tablets were ok but absolutely not to be used on the platform.

  Another year and everyone is encouraged to buy a tablet.

  Now? If you dont have a tablet you cant follow along and are regarded as not keeping up with Jehovah's org.

  They Are Going To Start Clamping Down With Staying At Home - Local Needs + GB Update #4

  by thedepressedsoul in

  many of us have watched the gb #4 update.

  most of us jumped for joy when they basically said that there will be no meeting in person for a long time to come.. one aspect we overlooked was how hard they hit home the "love of neighbor".

  how this "love" is what makes a true christian and as a result our love for our neighbors will motivate us to stay at home.. well now they released a letter that is instructing all kh's to view this video during their local needs part.

  I do wonder how they'd manage to hold any judicial committees if they're not meeting up. Over Zoom? Where it can be recorded and witnesses present off camera?

  I’m Seeing Some Trump Fatigue Out There

  by minimus in

  i’ve heard from a few trump voters that they are getting tired of the whole trump thing.

  one person yesterday said he lies.

  another person said she hears from her clients in her business that the constant drama and push back from all sides against trump is fatiguing.. i remind people that before this worldwide pandemic, we had the best numbers in jobs.

  He is asked a question and no one, I REPEAT no one can follow what he is saying. I can not fathom how anyone with an ounce of sense can vote for this senile old man. Just listen to how scatter brained his thoughts are:

  You mean like this?:

  “I never understood wind. You know, I know windmills very much. They’re noisy. They kill the birds. You want to see a bird graveyard? Go under a windmill someday. You’ll see more birds than you’ve ever seen in your life. They’re made in China and Germany mostly, but they’re manufactured tremendous if you’re into this, tremendous fumes. Gases are spewing into the atmosphere. You know we have a world, right? So the world is tiny compared to the universe. So tremendous, tremendous amount of fumes and everything. You talk about the carbon footprint, fumes are spewing into the air, right? Spewing. Whether it’s in China, Germany, it’s going into the air. It’s our air, their air, everything, right?” - Donald Trump

  PIMI wife is not like normal women or mothers who have that natural affect.

  by goingthruthemotions in

  2. experiences

  is it me who thinks this.......jw pimi or pomi women lack natural affection toward there children, family and human's.. it must be the indoctrination that strips these emotions.

  i see it in my wife all the time, when she talks with non jw people she is like "meh" i got to talk with you.. when she talks with jw people, she has a cult emotion like "yes my people" .

  she is screwed in the head, the more that time goes by i want to leave her and get a divorce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  My mother’s the same. She even shuns my autistic younger brother who simply left because he refused to shun me.

  But she’s used as an example in conventions so she’s happy.

  waken up uk sheeple and smell the coffee.. no two-metre distancing for 22 men doing their job; clenched fists touching other clenched fists at the end; no face-masks being worn by the majority of those on the sidelines.. time for people to start demanding answers from their elected politicians..

  They’re not being tested to prevent them getting the virus, they’re testing them to make sure they don’t have it already in order to pass it on.

  Flu is a very different issue. Covid-19 is new and more deadly that the flu which just goes to show how many people could have died if we didn’t have such mesures in place.

  Like others have said, the pro footballers are tested regularly so they know they dont have it to pass on. Football continues because it makes £millions, which of course the government taxes and takes a cut.

  I agree it's unfair but there we are.

  we have to get rid of these racist relics.

  i propose that we destroy all these bottles of syrups and burn every pancake box !

  we need to get rid of anything that reminds us of anything negative concerning slavery.. in boston they decapitated the head of christopher columbus and got rid of his statue.

  i used to watch his videos on the monthly gb talks.

  he has went over the top a few times doing one video on why being liberal idiot is a good thing.

  he has made comments on the usa not knowing shit about what he was desperately trying to talk about.

  Forgive me if this is a silly question, but when you say "liberal" what exactly do you mean?

  To me, the word liberal means being more flexible and open to change depending on the need or circumstances. Does it mean something different in a political context?

  Also, is it that black and white? Is it either conservative or liberal? Is there no middle ground?

  Genuinely asking as my political interest only came after I left the witnesses 4 years ago.

  TorBrowser is a good way to go if you dont want to be tracked. Also clears your history everytime you close the browser. A good thing to know for those of us who are PIMO or just like looking at porn on a shared computer.

  I'm waiting for the WTBTS for a recommended search engine.

  I imagine they'd call it NuLite and it'd send your search history direct to your local body of elders.
