"Apostates" in here showing all this compassion for older JWs, yet those same JWs wouldn't do the same". Up too the beginning of the 90s, seemed like every watchtower magazine was about bashing other religions. Especially Catholic. Watchtower never been especially interested in people's feeling. They always thought they hade the moral high ground to bash others. It's probably a mindset infused into their members also. I wonder why they suddenly stopped with all their bashing. In ways watchtower started bashing their own members instead. How everyone hade to be holy and clean to be a JW.

A luncheon with ultra PIMI, elderly relatives
by joe134cd ini had a luncheon yesterday with and aunt and cousin.
the only reason i went, and endured it, was because my father who can’t drive wanted to see them.
as i sat there eating the lunch at the restaurant, i couldn’t help think how totally oblivious they are to what’s going on, in an ever expanding organisation of the happiest people on earth.

Confirmed: CO Discourages Zoom
by XBEHERE ini can confirm that the co during one of his service talks stated that zoom is a provision for elderly, infirmed, as well as people who might need it on occasion due to health reasons, otherwise you are expected to be in person at meetings and in the ministry.
this had to come down from the top.
maybe they do not want to put it in a gb update or broadcast since that would be too public i suppose.

Hellothere
I can confirm they been discouraging Zoom for over a year now. Even a former GB member (we all know who 😊 yeah the one that disappeared like smoke) gave talk about it JW broadcasting. I can also confirm that many JWs don't seem to care what GB thinks about Zoom, they gonna still continue attending tru zoom. If GB hade any kind of common sense they wouldn't provoke rank and file removing Zoom. Think lot's of JWs are on their last breath ( both literally and in their patience with org) . Removing Zoom gonna affect org very negative.

Hellothere
You must understand that the Morris we saw on video's, was the light and censored version of Tony Morris. At GB meetings he must been foaming at the mouth bat Crazy. Even he must have been to much for other GB member's.

Curtailing zoom
by road to nowhere inco visit, so right from the horse's mouth ( or somewhere).
too many are staying on zoom, missing face to face encouragement.
look for the elders to implement changes.. also people at the door are so receptive and glad to see us.

Think there's only one reason for meetings and that's donations. Have someone at Bethel figured out people are not donating enough when on zoom, it's bye bye zoom. Have they notice they get much more money from selling halls, they gonna keep zoom and continue the sell out. I don't think org is counting on much donations. They seem too be focusing on the real estate market. Sure org likes control they have with in person meetings. But I think they like money even more.

Back in the 90s it was hard find a seat at meetings sometimes and assemblys. Meeting attendance has been going down for decades. We all know it has nothing too do with pandemic. Watchtower would not have the courage too remove zoom. They bluffing. But it would be interesting if they would. I bet the yearly report wouldn't come out year after that 😎

Read on Reddit. A
JW couple was send to Bahamas, to help a building project. Tony Morris son was also working same project. Every one was instructed not to ask Tony's son what happened to his father. So it probably wasn't anything positive the reason he got removed. No way it was for health reasons.

July 2023 Study Article 29: Are You Ready for the GT (part 3)
by blondie inhad to take a break to get my chores caught up; last section: strengthen your love.
this implies that any jw had "real" love or knew what it was outside the wts definition.
many jws just perpetuate the type of love they were show in their congregation.

They written in watchtower, for congregations to be blessed with members and people from district attending meetings, their must be strong Cristian love in congregations. My thoughts is how can their be strong Christian love in a cooperation.

New Convention Song “ It Will Not Be Late”
by BluesBrother inthis made me chuckle.
a new song that they are encouraged to practice for the convention.. “ we know your day will come, sure as the rising sun.
no matter how long it takes , it will not be late” …………... it is based on habakkuk 2 , we discussed this in depth around 1973/1974.

Think not focusing on music and dancing was one big mistake JW leaders made. Have read that Rutherford (of course 😁) removed singing from meetings. Was like that for some year's.They probably wanted to differentiate themselves from other group's. But instead it made for very boring and passive meetings. Whole Bible is about music and singing. From the old testament with their assembly's and new testament praising God at the meetings with Cheerful singing.

by XBEHERE inanother topic based on a conversation with a friend living near warwick (i talked to him over the weekend).
he said that cong's in and around bethel, including his, are slowly starting to see an uptick with people attending in person his cong is pretty much 75%+ in person.
however there are many that still use zoom as a fall back.

by blondie ini thought i would never do this again, but a comment on this article made to look it up.
not much knew but looking back at previous articles, the wts has ramped up on this topic since 2020...i see a correlation there.
it is lengthy so i will split it up in parts.

They should be more scared of the part of the GT when Jesus separate the sheep's from the goat. When Slave Class either rewarded or punish. They never focus on the juridical part of the GT. Maeby they don't fear God. Or they just use the GT to scare rank and file.
