  His latest video he says he is really struggling with mental health

  he says things going on it’s been emotionally challenging

  could this be his kids new step dad?

  then he talks nonsense about illegal drugs and shrooms for ages.

  it’s obvious he lives in a cheap bed sit on his own with paper thin walls and you can hear the neighbours next door. It must be so depressing living on your own and seeing a new stepdad with your ex

  he then says he describes himself as a 45 year old man struggling with his mental health and that he is stranded in Croatia. Why does he feel stranded?

  if his kids have a new step dad plus they are coming upto the age when they can google their biological dad and feel absolutely devastated and disgusted and disappointed the way he treated their mum and was sexting underage girls

  then he will probably move back to the UK

  Reddit thread - ‘Organization Finally Suggesting to Plan for Retirement’

  this information is supposed to be in the upcoming march wt.

  (i don’t go on jw dot org).

  it would sound like they are hinting at a change in thinking.. in my opinion, any such change would be yet another slap in the face to faithful pimis along with those other recent changes.. there are so many heartfelt responses on that thread and a lot of justified anger.. don’t know what to say except that i’m so glad i never listened to the religion all those years ago.

  Things have changed so much now, JWs actually saving and investing for retirement.

  all the long time JWs who died of old age last decade would turn in their graves.

  the question is why have any sense of urgency if we are now told at the same time to save, invest and plan for retirement?

  it all flies in the face of 1914 Jesus sat on his throne as appointed king and appointed the GB 3.5 years later in 1919 as his one true religion on earth.

  Now it is 2025 and they start telling JWs actually it would be a good idea to start saving, investing and planning for retirement 😮

  He is also STILL using his kids as props though. As someone as so hated as he is, why bring any of that upon his children?

  The kids aren’t old enough to google their biological dad yet. Apparently they have a step dad now,

  He will help the girls see all the letters and the truth about their biological parent.

  At this point they will be discusted with him and treat him as Jaws used to treat disfellowshipped ones.

  he will then move back to the UK.

  Still no U turn on vax mandates for all schools

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  you still have to be fully vaccinated to attend any theocratic schools.

  elders and ministerial servants have their kingdom ministry school every year, the cobe of every congregation has to check that everyone is fully vaccinated.

  after the school everyone will ask any bothers who were not there why not?

  So this next elder’s school the elders wives are invited

  but what if they are not fully vaccinated?

  either they do a clear U turn on the mandate or they don’t and they all have to be fully vaccinated

  Luke Evans new book about being JW

  2. beliefs

  i haven’t read it but just browsing say jehovah’s witnesses mentioned a lot.. there are pictures of his congregations he was brought up in.

  and his father looks like an elder years ago when luke was young, but i could be wrong.. later on there are pictures of his father was one of the extras in the hobbit as luke had a lead role.

  could his father still be an elder and be in movies.

  Is there a way to find out if his father is still an elder?

  have things slacked off so much these days that an elder can be in a blockbuster movie with his gay megastar son?

  the hobbit has wizards like sparlock 😮

  I was also moved by a film I watched called perfect days. It’s about a Japanese toilet cleaner who leads a very simple life as JWs are directed to.

  he is happy even though he lives in cheap horrible accommodation just like most JWs have to. He works a cleaning job similar to most JWs.

  you can be happy in such circumstances especially if JWs have genuine hope that this is not the real life and constantly telling others about the perceived Bible hope of Gods Kingdom going to make the world a better place very soon

  I’m reading this thread and can see both sides.

  if you are now old and following JW direction means you worked menial jobs to knock on doors then you may be really struggling now if you have no savings at all. I don’t think they ever gave direction to save money in the past like they are starting to give now.

  on the other hand I read a brilliant book called Die with zero.

  it basically says-

  If you spend hours and hours of your life acquiring money and then die without spending all of that money, then you've needlessly wasted too many precious hours of your life. There is just no way to get those hours back. If you die with $1 million left, that's $1 million of experiences you didn't have. And if you die with $50,000 left, well, that's $50,000 of experiences you didn't have. No way is that optimal. The question we all must answer is how to make the most of our finite time on earth.
